Warlord
Heyas! It's been a long time since I seriously played Civ IV (the forums just told me I last logged in FOUR YEARS ago ), but now I'm feeling like it again.
I'm more or less at the same point I was at those couple of years ago: I have no problem winning at Warlord, but I can't seem to win at Noble. I've read up on some Noble strategy, and I've learned a few things that I apparently did wrong before (prioritize Food, use Slavery intensely, don't hesitate to expand quickly, attack close rivals early). Playing these strategies, I'm able to get a strong expansion and an adequate defense going, but I can't seem to win the first war, because I don't have enough strong units.
I've attached a game where this is the case, the save is from the turn before I attack Genghis Khan, only to find out there are not enough Axemen in my stacks and suffering defeat. Maybe you could take a look at my game and give me an overview of what I can still do better. I appreciate it!
