sethos
no allies
This game was as test. I wanted to reach AC with a little empire
(deity, raging horses, map:125x80, 7 civs, no restarting, other parameters medium).
My Indians were on an small island, so I could build only 7 cities. My 8th city was on an island far away. Later in the game that city got an airport and super highways. A constant stream of goods was sent to that city to improve money and beakers.
On the continent next to my island were the French which became first allies and later enemies.
During the centuries I built tons of caravans, for building WoW and trade. I shipped them to the biggest French cities. That gave me a big amount of gold and beakers.
I managed to build some WoW: Colossus, MPE, Mike's, Bach's, Shakespeare's, SETI, but not Leo's, SoL, the ancient and other medieval wonders.
I didn'need them. I rush built nearly all city improvements.
One tip: Build SDI as soon as the tech is available. Rush build it when you've got the money.
My opinion:
CARAVANS are the KEY!
They are the most important unit. Do you agree?
