mb2-a space oddity
- Thread starter mad-bax
- Start date
Thanks for the offer, I might take you up on that. I needed all evening for MB1 (really enjoyed it and took it easy 
) So no GOTM for me tonight. I realize you maybe wanted to play tonight, so it's fine with me either way. Up to you, SG master sir.

Are you playing MB? Or shall I take this? (Turns out I do have some time today.)

WW is controllable as long as we keep winning. The Inf army should defend the newly taken cities as long as Ragnar can build new Cavs. This will take down the 1-Inf-each-2-turns loses and we should be ok. The Science spedd is statisfactory now. We are rich enough to bey it.and they are kind enough to sell it amongst themselfs, so that it's cheaper for us and lets us choose who to buy it from.

I don't leave 'till 2pm. So I have the save. Unfortunately I may not be able to post the result until Wednesday evening. Hope you don't mind, but I really want to take my turns in this game. I feel as if I haven't contributed to it for a very long time.
I can't open the save to check that it works though.

1750AD: Pre-turn
Well, I've been away from this game a long time, and I'm not sure why we are at war with the vikings. Since we have no agreements that tie us into a war I take peace.
IBT:
Greece and Egypt sign MPP
We get kicked out of Scandinavia.
Greece declares war on vikings
Persia and Babylon sign MPP
Aztechs want ROP and want to pay for the privelidge - OK
Korea and Persia sign peace treaty
1752AD: Just trying to find out whats going on. Guess I might do a few worker merges soon.
IBT:
Mongols want embargo against vikings. No I want to give them stuff.
1754AD: Started short rushing stuff.
1756AD: Nothing happened.
Bought Motorised Transportation from Persia for Incense salt and 80gpt. Over the top but I wanted to give them money.
IBT:
Iroquois and Egypt sign MA against Vikings
Renew silks deal with Iroquois for Iron and furs
1758AD:
Irrigated some mined tiles for worker merges
IBT:
Korea and Babylon sign peace treaty.
1760AD: Aztechs don't have coal. So I trade Amphibious war for gems + coal + 50gpt. Again just to keep them solvent.
1762AD:
Nothing happened.
IBT:
Scandinavia and Persia sign peace treaty.
1764AD:
Worker merges and stuff. Not a lot else.
Gift Dyes and incense to Korea.

Greeks want ROP. Sure.
We complete the Pentagon.
1766AD:
Give spices and coal to Persia (For 500g)
Since we now have 40 000 gold and we can't spend it I start cash rushing every improvement I can imagine. When I finish we have a mere 25 000 gold left
IBT:
Greece and Scandinavia sign peace treaty
vikings want embargo against Mongols. No thanks.
Greece declare war on vikings
1768AD:
Wines and Spices to Egypt for 1200g. They are nearly as rich as us.
IBT:
Iroquois want embargo against vikings. No
Persia and Aztechs sign MPP
Persia and Astechs sign Ma against Korea

1770AD:
No Change.
Gift wines, furs and gems to Korea.
EOT
I'm sorry this was late. Unavoidably detained playing GOTM24 I'm afraid. And sorry there are no pictures, but there isn't really anything to show.
We have the pentagon and the capital is building another army. There is an empty army in the capital too.
Since we have over 30000g and are making 2800gpt we could perhaps afford to give more to the AI. I thought about it but decided that it would be best to discuss it first.
Here is the (albeit late) <<save>>.

MB stopping war , now I've seen it all. 
Somehow the Viks seem constantly at war. Why, who knows, they seem to have a decent sized land. Remember that they declared us... We may just have to finish them in a war to end all wars. (Where have I heard that line before?)

I agree the Viking war was pretty pointless. Sure, capturing that wonder (what was it, Smith's?) would have been nice, but the city that held it was pretty far from the front lines. Not really worth the effort considering that we're all ready inhumanly rich.
About being more generous to the AI: I always tried to do that. When buying a tech, I usually threw in some luxes, several thousand g, and 50-100gpt. I suppose I could start giving even more than that, though.
Mostly we just need to be generous with gpt. With a high gpt, the AI should be able to research faster, hopefully getting up to 4 turn research if we're lucky.

Notes
The only AI contributing to research are Egypt, Greece & Persia as far as I can tell.
If I were playing solo I would sign MAs with Egypt vs Aztec, Persia vs Iroquois and Greece vs Scandinavia. Then shift down a gear to Monarchy, wipe out the non-contributors and gift any cities captured to the respective MA partner involved.
I'd end up with the three most useful AI bigger and stronger, past their OCN and better able to research peacefully. The other dead wood AI, Mongolia & Babylon could probably do with being removed as well leaving Korea with perhaps a split empire (Mongolian territory).

Oh, all right. I doubt I can get in more than 5 turns, though. I actually have to go somewhere this weekend.
Maybe we should have let someone else have SETI. Lot of good it's going to do us...

Pre-turn: I fill that empty Army with two Tanks and two MIs.
1792 AD: Renew Aztec ROP.
We catch the Greeks trying to plant a spy! I've never seen an AI spy get caught before!
A source of Coal has been exhausted =(
Gift 100gpt to Korea so they don't go broke during their war.
1794: Nothing much. Things are pretty aimless right now.
1796: Aztecs ally with Persia against Viks.
Greeks and Egypt both have Rocketry. I buy it from the Greeks for 5000g, 200gpt, Iron (they don't have Iron?!), and Dyes.
Gift Rocketry to Persians, Koreans, and Aztecs.
Now that we have Rocketry, I see that we have 3 sources of Aluminum.
Begin producing some Cruise Missiles just for the hell of it.
1798: Korea allies with Viks vs. Egypt.
Renew Silks deal with Iroquois.
Another Army built in Antalya. Fill it with two Tanks and two MIs.
1800: Gift Oil and Rubber to Korea. No wonder they're not doing so well in the war. They don't have the two most vital Modern Age resources.
