Warlord
I'm playing as Hannibal and am in a position where i have the lead and wondering how to hold on to it.
The game started well. i where on an iland with the Netherlands. I got the better starting spot (two gold in BFC) and could block him after settling two citys. built three more citys then only military until the war started. the war was easy and wilhelm got crushed by my war machine.
I started to build my economy and have bin in tech lead the whole game. but i'm starting to be afraid about losing it wen churcill built his stockmarkets. he has way better land than me (jungle start) more citys and the best military power. behind in tech though but not for long me think.
Me, Sitting bull, Nappy and Churchill is in a buddist block (54% of the world follow that religon 50+ city's and Sitting bull have the shrine
). Khemer and Hamurabi are Juws. Me and Nappy are werry good friends. so I will have him as an attack dogg at the right moment.
So what will I do now. Sitting Bull has the Budda shrine. i'm intrested to make a short war and take it from him. the city could easy be mine, the problem is that it is on anouther continent so the mantence cos will be huge if i take more than two citys. map overview below
So what to reserch. I whod like to have a tech lead in gunpowder era units before i attack sitting bull. say what you think.
my goals are:
1. Military tradition
2. Military Science
3. Rifling
I can make a trade with Nappy for engenering but i'm afraid he will trade it to the outhers (Engenering for gunpowder). I have more techs to trade but they are way to expensive, gunpowder is the chepest. so what do you sugest?
here, check it out the save game if you like.
