PW-02 Zombie Nation

Great start r_rolo1, I have expected nothing less ;) :goodjob:

Loved your AI analysis as well as the brilliant SG idea.
The latter could be difficult to set up as, as soon as you press enter after Game.AIPlay 10, it kills our civ :lol:
Anyway, should it be implemented, it's one of the best SG games I've seen in a while :king:

Spain conquest is a good move, especially given Boudica is busy with Lizzie. As you said, we need to get it off soon enough to prepare for the celtic beauty anger.
 
I was wondering how it was possible for Cathy and Hatty to get so much land, but the answer is simple. 1E of Vladivostok was meant to be Shaka's capital, just before he was transformed into a lion :lol:

Going to be hard to face Cathy, thank God (Buddha soon ;)) we have such a fine roster!

Objective domination ( maybe early to think about it, but from where we are it looks like this ) ?
 
Don't be so hard on you DM :lol:

Good luck azaris, sure you'll manage a masterpiece out of this situation - disaster recovery must continue!
 
Brains... brains...

The situation is still not very good. We are 1 turn away from CoL and only have two useful cities. Our stack will face fearce cultural resistance in Madrid. The good thing is that Izzy has neither metals nor HBR. This alone was reason enough not to play her.

Turn 1: I prepare for CoL by setting all cities on max growth for the :whipped: of courthouses. I made some trades, but Catherine doesn't want to give us clam.

Turn 2: Start Civil Service, due in 18 turns.

Turn 5: Here is what we find in Madrid. Who knows what possessed Izzy to build loads of chariots for city defense.

Turn 6: Thanks to Ivan teh Terrible, we take Madrid without losses. :thumbsup: to rolo for that one. I don't like it so I raze it. :joke:

Turn 7: Izzy grants us a few workers.

Turn 9: I've tried to limit rexpansion but I found the fishing village of Nara because we have a workboat ready. I queue up another one so that we get the city profitable ASAP.

Turn 10: Seville has been poisoned so they're not a happy bunch right now. Madrid is out of revolt in 3 and should speed our research quite a bit. Izzy is 2 turns away from being dead.

Nice work, azaris.... too bad about the razing of madrid :lol:

Now we should start to think what we're going to do next. We'll need some turns for rebuid, but even after that our situation is not the best.. We have a big cathy and a big boudica ( pun not intended :p ) and we'll need more land...How about the jewish heaten?
 
This war is really going forward nicely :thumbsup:

I think the fishing village - Nara - won't be too mych of a burden and will pay for itself. And we already had a settler anyway.

Darth Meanie, please do the honours to achieve Izzie and start the eco infrastructure in our cities. CS will do us good...
 
Good turns. And i figured out why izzy did so bad. Instead of founding Barcelona on where it is now, she should've put Barcelona in where seville is. Well bad city placement is what makes the ai so special i guess...
 
Welcome to the SG world DM :lol:

Good luck with Barcelona cleaning and the after-world buildup :)
 
Turn 172: Boobica asks for war; I say no. Begin bombardment of Barcelona

Turn 173: Barcelona taken and kept with no losses

Turn 179: Civil Service in; Switch to Hereditary and Beuaru. Boobica and Lizzy make nice

Turn 180: Built Nagoya, yet another fishing village.

We need a GP farm, a better economy, and above all, to save up a great merchant for Sid's Sushi. Once all of our conquests and villages get hooked up we'll get like 12 food for every city.
 
Nicely done , mr "I suck " :p

As I predicted, miss big boo.. errr, Boudica ;) is starting to dislike us. I think that she's the obvious next target of the next war, but she is all nice talks with Cathy and has more techs than us ( she has maces (so has machinery) and Philo. OTOH most of her cities aren't in hills ( except their nice capitol.. Glighthouse + collosus + Scotland yard ) so they can't leverage their UB...

But that is for later.. we need to put our empire in order first
 
Got it. Will play shortly.
Any suggestions?
Seems to me the best plan would be to befriend Boudica, because she may cause trouble otherwise. For now we need peace and quiet to consolidate.
Techwise I think we should beeline to liberalism trading for the techs we missed. No sense in researching metal casting->machinery line ourselves imo.
And man, do we have a lot of great fishing village spots in the west or what?
 
Just noticed Betrugers "location:Poland". So we have two Poles in our roster? =P

we need to attack boudica soon. i don't like having her as a nieghbour.
 
Oh my god, 2 Poles :faint: I'm going to be battered to death because of the soccer joke some posts ago ( and please, no HRE- Po ... err... oh well, you what I'm talking about ;) )

And I agree about miss Boudica... but now it is not the time. She has maces and we have a smoking ruins empire. We're not in position for another war ATM. Maybe we could send her to batter hatty.....
 
Oh well, everything has already been said while I slept ;)

Good job Darth Meanie, for someone who suck$ you did well :thumbsup:

No particular suggestions for the next set, the outlined strategy (beelining Lib and teching backwards) seems to be a good plan. Once drafting hits in, we can think about taking down Bouddica :lol:
 
Hey there, I'm sorry but I won't be able to play today.
The earliest I can play is tommorow evening so feel free to swap me with TheLastOne36.
