The Save:

I think what we should do now is Take out the Persians. But we should try and make them declare war on us. I dont know it its possible though Next should be mad-bax. I don't Think it will matter. We should all upgrade to 1.27. We need to switch which tech we are reaserching to Invention.

Anyway, Nice Set of Turns :goodjob:
 
No doubt about it. Great turns :thumbsup:
Taking out the Persians is a non-issue. We should just wipe them out on the way to killing the Arabs.

Lets build 4 or 5 settlers guys and fill up the little jungle island and put a couple of cities on the coast.

I agree that upgrading to 1.27 is smart.

Who is up? Little me?
 
Turnlog:
360AD: Pre-turn
I did a full MM round. The only controversial thing I changed was the Sun Tzus build. Sun Tzus is great, but Istanbul as a very unhappy place. So I switched to Marketplace.
Edrine switched to Aqueduct.
At this point my main objective was to take the Arabian town of Kufah. This would give us Gems (eventually).
There were also some Persian targets of opportunity, a couple of workers and a spear/settler pair that appealed.
Changed Slider to get Mono in 7. Changing to engineering now would waste a lot of gold that has already gone into Mono. Anyway, since we are warmongering, chivalry is attractive.

There is a suicide galley headed out into the wide blue yonder. It has already survived one turn at sea. You never know your luck.

So, we are at war with everyone we know :D

There are some troops on the way to a persian town. Can't remember which, but not the capital. There is a sizeable stack assembling in Mecca.

If the suicide galley survives I'd head north with it.
Not much has changed really. If you want a screen shot just say.

The save is <<here>>.
 
Looks Good. All the rioting is why i switch to Monarchy instaed or Republic. If you could post a screen shot please of our troops near the arabs terriotory. Ill play sometime tonight.
 
I agree that we can handle Republic, but I don't think we even need out UU to finish this game. What we do need is some boats and to find the other civs.

Anyway, here is the screenshot you asked for. Although there is a large stack in Mecca, as you can tell from the turnlog, many of them are injured. Reinforcements are pouring in from the West.

Mecca needs a rax. I would take out the towns to the northe of Mecca, and on the way back to take the southern cities upgrade them to knights in Mecca.

I'd switch off research for a while once we have Chivalry to get some money for the upgrades. I would like to be playing with arounf 30 Knights and 6 boats in 20 turns time.

 
We really need to start building our Forbidden Palace, too. We need to make more money if we hope to go beyond 8-10 turn research.
Former Babylon would be decent. Former Persia, maybe even Persepolis, would probably be more feasible without getting a leader.

I would take out the towns to the northe of Mecca, and on the way back to take the southern cities upgrade them to knights in Mecca.

Yeah, but leave the Elites un-upgraded. I think we should learn our lesson from mb2 where the upgrade to Ansars left us with no Elites.
 
30 knights and 6 boats no problem :D
Last night i had way to much going on.
Tonight ill actualy play. :)

With those knights we should take out the smallest civ there unless its one city.
 
For sure we should not upgrade any elites. A leader for the FP would be really handy. We need to discuss where it should go though. Persepolis looks OK.
 
I wont be able to play untill Monday so skip me. So Andvruss your up.

(Technically wouldn't i be skipping myself :hmm: )
