new succ. game japanese all welcome

The year is 1325 BC, the elated people of Japan must now look to a new leader. His name is gonzo(not really). He looks out from the mists and sees an empire that he knows will one day encompass the entire land. He's got some plans along the way, though.

1325 B.C. - found an orange civ
1300 B.C. - found Sparta a long ways south of Kyoto, founded Edo where previous Civ-leader had set settler to Go-to, Alexander told a warrior to get out of his territory, traded all of their gold for horseback riding, Elizabeth said get out(i did, despite advisor reports that the English army fears our warrior:lol: )
1275 B.C. - Joan d'Arc said "get out" later, she would eat those words.(gonzo grumbled to his lonely self)
1250 B.C. - Met blue civ(germans) Accidentally demanded 10 gold and got it. Gave them 5 to improve relations.
1225 B.C. - Declared war on France accidentally(no, really :eek: )
1200 B.C. - Positioned warriors outside Lyons
1175 B.C. - Got lucky and razed Lyons only lozing a conscript warrior.:lol:
1150 B.C. - Heroic warrior died after killing his third French warrior.
1125 B.C. - Built Settler
1100 B.C. - France sued for peace. I got 14 gold and Mysticism:)
1075 B.C. - Explored
1050 B.C. - Explored:sleep:
1025 B.C. - Founded Satsuma on the northern most part of the continent near our cities.
1000 B.C. - I was thirsty so I connected a road to some wines near Tokyo :beer: :) :goodjob:
975 B.C. - Explored
950 B.C. - Explored
925 B.C. - Explored
900 B.C. - How did you guess? Explored :sleep:
875 B.C. - Osaka built barracks and started horsemen to take the place of the lost warriors in France for exploration
850 B.C. - I wanted to go out with a bang so I declared war on every civ(just kidding). I did, however, beat the Osakans and the Tokyans just for kicks.(and productivity, deaths blamed on too much wine drinking;) ) Gonzo killed by Osakans while trying to find a hot tub.

And so ends the reign of Gonzo I. As a result of his reign, more gold and tech was acquired, more people started drinking and became exceedingly joyous, some Frence #$*#^$ died and then took a knee and kissed my @$$, and our world map increased minorly. Oh yeah, and 2 cities were founded.

I hope I did good enough for this time, I haven't been here since the beginning so I don't know the goals and the whole situation. I'd be willing to become a permanent addition if you approved of my rule this time around and wanted someone else, that is.
 
Sounds like you did an excellent job Gonzo. I can't wait to get started on it. I'll start it as soon as I get home from work tomorrow. Should be up around 6 or so.
 
Just thought I'd post the screenshot for everyone's enjoyment. :goodjob:

charliehoke, that means you're up. Good luck!:goodjob:
 
OK I've got it! I'll "TRY" to get it done tonight, but it might not be until tomorrow night!:(
 
Hi all - I finished my turn but I can't do the writeup until tomorrow morning sorry! I've attached a screenshot. The main thing that happened is a huge area of fertile grasslands was discovered near us! I decided that getting to these first was absolutely paramount, so I produced three settlers that are all on the way. Get that land. Also, iron working was discovered, and we have 3 deposits!

:goodjob:

Well 311, i guess it's you then mother russia and then me(if you'll keep me) :)
 
AN INCREDIBLE DISCOVERY

825 B.C. - The Takeover! Lord Chuck of the mighty Japanese takes over as emperor after a brief but outrageously bloody coup. :slay: Several minor changes are made immediately. First of all, the new leader is a man of ideas as well as action, and the science rate is boosted because we have a substantial treasury - dipping into it for the sake of science is a worthy cause. The Settler production in Edo was changed to temple for several reasons. First of all, the settler would not have been produced because the city was size 1, and secondly, there was no good food producing squares in the radius, so a temple was ordered to expand the workable area.

We strike a deal with the English in our first major diplomatic foray. We trade the the Wheel and contact with the Greeks in exchange for contact with the Russians, writing, and 7 gold. A reasonable trade. The Russians are backward technologically and broke as well. England is our closest rival technologically. I note we are the only ones producing the Pyramids! Hurrah! Edo produces it's temple. We have horses, we could probably make loads of horseman right now and do well... hmmm...

800: Exploring. Warrior produced in Satsuma. Iron Working discovered! Set to map making - ability to trade maps useful for cash.

775: No land bridge North of Toyko - oh well.

750: Horses discovered next to Germans... bad news. We have 3(!) iron deposits :goodjob: Osaka changed to worker to get them.

730: Germany DEMANDS contact with Russians. :mad: They are appeased for now, but I feel we haven't seen the last of them. I look around to see what techs the others have, and they are suddenly all even with us! :confused: Are they all trading techs together?

710: Edo expands under influence of new temple. Our horseman finds lands to the east.

690: Exploring...

670: Our horseman discovers what could be a mjor grasslands area to the East....

650: Our horseman discovers goody huts on this new peninsula! Osaka changed to Settler - we need to cut off this area so we can claim it for ourselves!

630: Toyko grows, stars settler production. The Ghuzz donate us a warrior :) The Germans seem to have an excellent starting position...

610: Settlers or defense??? I can't decide :confused:

590: Horseman moving back to cities for defense. Goody huts sighted right by German borders.

570: Sangians give us 50 gold :beer: When we get map making, be sure not to give out maps until we have a hold on this new land!

550: Production on settlers speeded up.

530: Road completed to one ron, but colony not built yet because we have alternate source soon and we need worker. The Greeks are approaching our border with their city of Thermopylae :eek: Production of Pyramids speeded through a re-allocation of resources. Satsume changed to spearman. Goody hut on new peninsula.

510: Polynesians give us maps of their local region.. gee thanks :rolleyes: The area is outstanding, however... Osaka and Toyko produce settlers - set to horsemen. Both of these are sent to the "New World"

490: Horseman sent to Edo to escort settlers. Silks discovered in New World

470: Iron connected! Swordsman available! Working on road to facilitate supply to New World.

450: Everyone even on tech - boats coming soon!

430: The end of my reign. Settlers are ready to pour into the new area. Cut off enemy expansion into here at all costs! Good Luck! :king:
 
in 30 min. I will take if no one else claims, just to keep the pace swift and I wan't a piece of that new land. 3 settlers is just too much fun to bypass.;)
 
Im taking. It's been 30 min. and we must keep up this pace. If anyone objects to this, you can skip me next time, but this is too good to pass up.
 
Im done. It was an interesting round. We are at war with the Germans because I wouldn't give in(don't ask why this happens always during my turns). We are stronger so we shouldn't have problems making them rethink this. The new area has been partly settled and no other civs can just walk in. 1 or 2 settler(s)(cant remember which) is/are almost to good settling grounds. We have advanced some in tech and are losing 1 gold/turn still. Summary soon to come.:o
 
Sir! Come quick, for mighty Japan cries your name. The people wan't you, the son of Gonzo to rule.

I will not deny the voice of the people, I have no choice, I must rule. Bring me and a small escort to the palace immediately.

410BC - Edo builds settler and I decide to build one more for a little help with the new world.

390BC - Worker starts road to new land.

370BC - Satsuma set to build settler. Our sages have discovered how to write down the lands on a paper, they call it a map.:lol: Now, my trusted science advisor advises me that we can build things called libraries to hold our literature.

350BC - Gonzo goes fishing!

330BC - I wanna fish some more!

310BC - C'mon let me fish!

290BC - OK Fine. But for that, I'm going to punish Satsuma by forcing them to build a settler.:lol:

270BC - Germans trade their world knowledge and 8 gold to me for our world knowledge(don't worry, the new lands shall be ours)

250BC - I'm sick of this, I'm going fishing some more.

230BC - Stop!!! I'm about to land the big one!

210BC - Kagoshima and Nara are built semi-close together to seal off the new lands. France gives us their World map and 15 gold for our territory map.

190BC - Osaka built horse, starting to train men with spears for better defence.

170BC - Back to fishing

150BC - Zzzzz.......

130BC - Germany tries to extort territory map and 26 gold. SCREW YOU!!!! War begins. Our conscript warrior successfully killed a vet german warrior and is promoted to regular!

110BC - Beat down Osaka for some horsies.

90BC - Osaka completes horse.

70BC - Our now regular warrior wins again!!!!

50BC - Pyramids completed in Kyoto. Spearmen started!!!:)

30BC - Polytheism started?(my notes are sloppy) Oh wait! whos this? HEY! put that down. What are you? oh my &*^. et tu charlihoke?

Notes: warrior outside of german city should be fortified and joined with at least 4-5 horse to take city and possibly force peace(for a price, of course) This war is not essential to survival so end it when we can strike a good deal. I didn't have time to do much since most was just expansion.
 
Great Job Gonzo! :goodjob:

The wins by your conscript warrior were pure military genius, and Your settlement of the new world was spot on! :D

Who's Next?

I added this for everone's lesiure:

If there's room left for another player, could I join this succession game? It would be my first one, but I think I would really enjoy playing one.
 
Hi Phantom,

I think it would be great if you joined up! I'm not sure who is next (is it me?) but as far as I'm concerned go ahead and play a turn!
