So from GR 17, ThERat got 7 leaders in 1 turn (30 kills) - That would be .76% chance - I would have guessed the odds were lower.
Mump3 - AWDG Standard Pangaea, take 4
- Thread starter Mumpulus
- Start date
Preturn: MM for scientists and I can get RP in 6 instead of 7. Things were pretty good but there were some improvement possible.
Build look pretty decent and some cities very well MMed. Change a University to factory (which will make a later uni build faster so I like that order better0.
Lugdunum is one turn from a factory so may become a TOE prebuild. I need to see if the turns look reasonable. I want to keep our big towns at 40 shield on Cavalry for now.
Military: We have a badly injured Cav Army that is undefended in a city that can be attacked by a Cavalry. I cover it as I think we have a good chance to lose it otherwise.
Use the Cav Army in the North to start attacking Molde.
Not sure why we have workers just sitting there waiting to be captured? Not much I can do about them.
Drafted a few Rifles to defend Spear Protected cities.
IBT: Lose 2 Spear and Conscript Rifle to Cavalry. Lose 2 workers.
Decide Lugdunum will go for Mil Academy. Go for Coal plant in Alesia for TOE - I think that is worthwhile.
Capture Molde
IBT: Lose a Pillaging Spear to a Berserk and an Conscript Rifle on a Mountain to a Cavalry.
1020 AD: Pillaged Byz Horses. Incans, Germany, Viking, Japan can all build Cav. Wouldn't mind pillaging them as well.
A landing messed up our capitols exact build so it is going for a Coal Plant (2 Rifles)
Build city River Bend.
IBT: Septum Deposes us! No units lost in this.
1030 AD: Septum is now Purely Celtic so won't flip again.
IBT: More Landings near our Capitol
1040 AD: Kill the Landing. Prepare to Advance.
1050 AD: Raze Birka (Viking) and build a new town. Attacked Constantanople (have to heal next turn.
IBT: Drop 2 Cav near the Capitol
1060 AD: Build two new cities advancing our line. Start Universities in Capitol and Alesia - don't think we are ready to start prebuild quite yet given Med is 8 turns.
IBT: Lose a Pike to a Cav.
1070 AD: capture Constantanople which has Sun Tzu Attack Nagoya.
IBT: Lose Cav and protecting Rifle.
1080 AD: Capture Izumo, Raze other Japanese town in South.
1090 AD: Built another town pushing the Boundary again. We have had really bad luck with our Cav recently they keep losing.
1100 AD: We lose 2 more Cav vs a 1 hp Cav and 1 hp Rifle to end this turn of terrible Cav luck.
Rushed a temple in Izumo. This should put the German Horse in our lands.
Notes:
Check towns food. Some still have excess food and need more irrigation. This is due to RRing plains for the most part. I adjusted several towns already.
Keeping resource pillaged isn't easy:
Byzantine lack Saltpeter
Incans are reconnecting resources pretty quickly and need continuous pillaging to stop the Cavalry.
Germans can build Cavalry - Horses are near our border and will be within our border in 5 more turns. I would cut them first though.
Japan can build Cavalry.
Vikings have nothing.
We can start our prebuilds for TOE and Hoover in the next turn or two . I think we might as well build them though there is a strong argument that the game won't last long enough to make them worthwhile, so I don't mind if we decide to forget about it.

I think it's in the bag now. Great progress, all that's left to do is pushing the mop around. Infantry are fun.
When I razed a city I got some slaves, and getting them to a safe place would've delayed our cav armies advancement for too long, so I spread them out hoping to distract 3 byz cav for a turn.

I don't think we will get to tanks earlye enough before the end to go for them even if we choose 2 techs toward them. I think Hoover will be more useful.
Edit: If we do want to try for tanks anyway, then I suggest getting the LAST two techs rather than the first two so we should time getting it when we get the tech for transports (I am forgetting the name at the moment). There doesn't seem to be any risk as the AI is working on no wonders - we can freely grab Smith if we wish. If the game is too close to the end like I think it will be we will simply end up with more units rather than TOE which isn't entirely bad.

got it, will go towards ToE since we chose that path already. We can still decide whether to go for Hoover or not. I think Hoover might be useful.

a mere 2 units in Hannover, raze city for 535 gold
no more horses for the Germans now

on of our pillager armies discovers that Kyoto is rioting, these fools are still democrats just like Vikings and Incas
rush factory in Verul

5.1150AD
time to go after the last Byz towns
only 2 units and we take Heraclea. attack next town, take it and

6.1160AD
Germany and Inca now have RP, this is no good
both don't have rubber though

get another MGL taking out some units
IT most important, we do not have any flips
8.1180AD

unfortunately, taking out Munich wasn't enough, there must be a settler somewhere
then I discover Stuttgart on ex Byz land, take it out and
we are rich now with 6000 gold

raze Bergen and Oslo
plant a city o bust some fog

as stated above, I did not MM this turn as it all depends on our decision
1. conquest
a. take steel and refining
b. take AT and electronics
c. wait with ToE and time it to get 2 more expensive techs
2. domination
I am actually for 1c and that would mean to switch our prebuild to maybe Smiths to make more money. We can get steel in 5 and should be able to get to combustions fast
If we chose domination, very simple. Rush more temples and plant a few towns with rushed settlers

Since I would really like a conquest win, I agree with 1c. It shouldn't take too much longer to play that out than domination (2, maybe 2.5 sets instead of 1). I'll take out the big MM guns again and see what I can do to get the best research speed 
. Maybe I'll even slow down the military part, so that next player still has something to do while waiting for techs to come in. 
I got it, but I have a lot of work today, so this will be for tomorrow morning. Expect me to finish 26 hours from now.

Based on an "old" image:
We are 5 techs away from marines: steel (5t), refining (7t), combustion, mass production, amphibious warfare. We can build ToE from scratch in 9 turns, starting after next turn. I'll try to get steel down to 4. The Incans may research refining, which will make it cheaper. Then 2 techs from ToE, and let's say 5 more for AW. That makes 15 turns to go.

Not too sure about Inca getting refining, IIRC they are in anarchy right now...or was that Korea? 15 turns to get all techs + 2 turns to take out that city sounds right.

I think we should go for a double victory domination/conquest...5-6 turns to go, make sure we have prebuilds for sufficient marines and then settlers to go beyond the domination limit after taking the last cityMumpulus
King
Most of our military is near Entremont. Ships are in a town southwest of Nara (forget the name). Some artillery are in position to bomb Nara, but there's not much left to bomb.
Sorry Greebley that you don't have anything left to do. I didn't try to go fast, I didn't use combat settlers our anything, but we were just rolling.
I was guessing that would be likely. Got it.
It took the expected 4 turns. We got to 79% land.
Marines killed the Japanese.
Feel free to play it out when you are that close to a win. Of course, if you like handing it off that is fine too...
Hit enter on the save to win.
