Preturn: Move some units (tactical withdraw from Thermopylae for this turn),
military situation looks pretty good for 1050AD.
I also notice that we are on our way to get Leo in Athen and that Cleo is currently
building Smith for us in Memphis.
IT: An Egypt cav kills one of our cavs at Leptis.
Hanni kills a cav in Thermophylae.
1060: I attack Thermopylae, it is defended by conscript rifles and cavs.
Our third victory produces GL CAUAC SKY
good, I need a cav army at that front.
We take the city and 'free' 6 new workers, we also get 530 gold, Egypt must have tons of cash.
IT: The Russians kill one of our cavs with a rifle.
Hanni take out 3 Egypt-units on open ground and loses a cav to a egypt rifle, two of
them are advancing on the road network north.
1070: We capture Novgorod in the North to the price of 1 cav, defeating 4 defenders.
Statue of Zeus, useless but ours.
Bombard and kill of 2 Russian rifles on open ground near Novgorod.
We have enough money to make a steal attempt and get Nationalism, good, we
need better defenders to minimize cav-casulaties.
IT: Egypt and Ottos sign an embargo agaisnt us and a MA agaisnt Hanni, Ottos declare
against Hanni. Hanni kills 3 Egypt rifles that were about to pillage his lands, we are not harrased.
1080: The attack on Sparta which is held by 3 muskets costs us 1 cav before we take the city.
A lot of troop movement, in the north to regroup our forces after the eastern russian cities are taken,
in the south to cover most of our exposed cav. I want to begin rifles upgrade next turn.
I have not enough troops to attack Athen which is held by vet rifles this turn.
IT: Egypt counterattacks, Hanni lost 2 cav, we lose 1.
Alex wants a peace treaty, why not.
1090: I start rifle upgrading and drafting in 1-shield cities.
Most of our cav in the south is healing this turn, a stack in the north heads for Hyangsan.
Our army lost 11 HP! attacking a stupid musket, this is ridiculous
IT: 1 Egypt cav impales itself at Thermopylae.
1100: With 10 redlined cavs and a redlined cav army, I can't do much in the south.
At least we have no casulaties this way
IT: The next Egypt cav is stopped redlined at Thermopylae, another doesn't attack Sparta and turns
around. We get a Palace expansion.
1110: I attack Athen, it is defended by 7! rifles.
Our army akes out 2, then I get 3 retreats in a series, finally we capture the city with
one cav-loss and 5 reedlined ones. We get a Treb. and a cannon, and the city has raxes
Kill of a russian rifle on pillage mission. I bombard Hyangsan succesfully and take the city without problems
from its 3 defenders (1 was a cossak), we have not many cavs
in the north and all our new cav-reinforcements are sent towards Egypt where the real work fight is
still not accompished as we are taking only low-culture former Greek cities currently.
This means the northern offensive is slow but there are enough cannons in the area to keep the casualties minimal.
IT: Cleo wants to talk. They are up Steam which I want but we are still in an alliance with Hanni.
Interesting, I have taken 3 cities and she doesn't want to give us anything for peace.
Hanni move a lot of cavs into our territory heading for the Ottos.
Both Cleo and we lose a cav.
1120: cavs are healing in the south, our northern stack advances towards the last two northern russian city.
If we take them, there are only the southern few left.
IT: Cleo is still sending a few cavs every turn, This time we lose 1, she 2 at Sparta.
She kills one of Hannis muskets. Hanni is really after the Ottos, he kills 3 MDIs on our territory and
send a lot of new cavs, he somehow leaves us the Egyptian front
1130: A lot of troop movement and positioning.
IT: Hanni kill more Otto units, no attack from Cleo this turn.
A Russian settler/rifle combo enters our terriotry.
And they are finally sending longbows
The resistanece in Athen ends, I continue starving them.
1140: Kill the 3 russian longbows, getting 2 more elite cavs.
We take Corinth with our army and two additional cavs.
Slowly we are advancing. Spot 4 Egypt-rifles near the town.
Move stack into position for the attack of Pusan next turn.
IT: No attack from Cleo, but Hanni and the Ottos are killing units from each other.
Some resistance in Nov. ends causing riots.
1150: We attack and capture Byblos, only 3 retreats and no losses this time but mostly
conscripts and a cav, only 1 vet rifle. We get another 1200 cash form this city.
I left Arathorn with some money to rush things, maybe some rifles on the Egypt front instead of
the settlers.
The bombardement of Pusan failed this turn and the stack was just reinforced with cav, so
the attack is delayed one turn.
In the south our position is getting better, I think Cleo is running out of units.
Spices should be save now and could be connected.
I think this was my last turn, it was time-consuming to get into it but it was fun.
Belisar
The situation in the south:
SAVE
Our army can't kill a pikeman in Moscow. We only have one army left. 
I think you'll be fine with war, though!
in my play... well, I've had a long day 
Why did we have so major units in a flip risk city 
Ahh bad luck. O well.
