Marnz game / Roosevelt

[mice]

Great pics thx for the info. I really like this mod. Too bad I don't have BtS

No BTS That must be very frustrating.

here's an update,

Spoiler :

Here's the minimap.

and hit in two directions.

Quebec falls after a lot of Marrk V tanks die to machine guns.

Before they go in the biplanes do strikes to make things better, but it is a hard fight.


In the North Calgary falls and the units stay there to absorb counter attacks.

Veer back west for Vancouver and I see that he has better tanks than me.

He has no air force though except a few airships so after a slog of losing MarkV tanks and infantry, we take the city.

Now WW is back to about 14.I have lost a lot of units in a short space of time.

Marnz has been trying to reduce happiness in the mod, but right now I could use a lot of it.

I continue military builds to finish him off and fix happiness that way. I opt for mainly flight builds.

The airbase , the Huey , paratroopers and light bombers, with vehicle factory and tanks a bit later on.

Go around the cities to get rid of all the spy specialists, and tweak the citizen placements. It's a good CE now.

After flight is in I build airbases and paratroopers. Edmonton gets the first para drops.

Edmonton gets artillary too.

Culture strangle is too much

We are 5% off domination. No choice but to destroy Canada !!! but first, peace

Pick up archeology and an ancient civilization is revealed.

This gives a bit of commerce, usually in the early-mid game.
Good news, the Mark V tank upgrades to tank. The bi plane upgrades to fighter. Tanks airlift into the cut off cities. with awesome production I start Eiffel tower and Crystal Palace, even on the cusp of war. Such arrogance.

War....

Mice, is there some special civics making culture faster to grow ?
It seems to me like if Ottawa were already a legend

Great modern war, I never ever do such accurate moves in my games (maybe that's why I never go for Dominion nor Conquest).

Killroyan, what are you waiting for ????
I managed to refrain myself for about a week and it was already hard

Hey Pawelo , I didnt even notice that it is about 25 turns from a culture victory.

With Ottawa though, the game is done by dom.

I like the potential for culture victory with this mod. There's plenty of early culture to grab.

I update next, but in fact there is a big chunk that I didn't include which is just me trying to get the last 5 % by culture. Sushi couldn't go into the cities because MacDonald had already put cereal. Either that or it was a bug as the Shinto religion had the Cereal icon (?)

Canada's old culture is just too hard to shift.

This update is the other way to get Culture.

Spoiler :

uring the brief period of peace I build Christo

and Graceland.

and the light bomber ...

War again.

It's all about air superiority. Here the fighter is defending in Edmonton

Tanks Arty and few infantry and marines head to the Capital to cut it off and finish the game.

Light bombers go ahead to wear down the defences

The is a dogfight or two

The strafe promotion is hard on defending troops.

Here is the bomber,and a light bomber defending

The stack meet some collateral damage on the plains before Ottawa, the Capital.

A Huey bring foot units two at a time.

Tanks fight it out'

Poetically, a mounty is one of the last to go.

...and it's goodnight nurse.

Next turn ,

look at that. there were some big islands there all the time

With those I might have been able to avoid war with Canada.

Here's a look at the Sea Side Resort city. Nice.

After that war, my vets can get a free holiday there.

Congratulations on a game well played!

Very nice finish mice!
Hope I'll see you try other modes this way or maybe start a Marnz SG

Small thought I had, regarding the culture issue : wouldn't it be nice to have something like an Artist unit, spreading culture wherever it goes and stays. Imagine a guy like this in your SoD, helping with early border pops and reducing revolt time
