RB23 - Alex the Decentral....

Played 10. Basically, took 3 cities, including Berlin. Land area now up to 54.40% and our army ready to eliminate Bismarck next turn. Yes I know the report sucks, but there isnt much to report. I believe that cities coming out of revolt and 1-2 roman cities will put us at domination. Looks like Greyfox has the honor. Like I already mentioned, great game guys. This was truly a tough one and we managed to pull it off. :goodjob:

Save:
 
Contemplated on playing only 10 turns and let oxbenno finish it ... but, what the hack, its just going through motion, so I played 15 turns and brings the baby home.

The following summarizes the troops movements and cities captured leading to the demise of the salad seller and the glorious planet-turn-red victory for RB23:

After eliminating Bismarck in 1792 (my first turn), I allowed 2 more turns of peace in Greece before declaring on JC. This allows me to position troops for the maximum efficiency. Which is why when the War is declared in my 4th turn 1798, a few cities fell quite rapidly in successions. This is however followed by a slower push, as the troops movement in enemy territory starts to slow things down.

The Top 5 Cities, fortunately, Athens has a place in it:

Again, out GNP is in the negative ... that must be always the case for a civ which win through domination but cannot switch to state property. Our power is way on top shortly after we declared on Bismarck. Even though Washington is showing off his destroyers and SAM infantry, we still beat him in power through our sheer number.


Some stats and final score:

As usual, collateral weapons has one of the highest casualty. Surpirsing however, it is not the top build. Grenies is. This goes to show that most of our battles are done in the Renaissance Era (we never make it to Modern Era). Another interesting thing to note is that Jew missionary managed to be one of top 7 units built by us.

great game guys :goodjob:
it was fun to play this though I wasn't abe to play turns in the end. Now I am waiting for the next episode here :)
 
Way to finish it out :goodjob:. I will have access to my CIV machine within a week if you want to start the next one up and place me last. I still recommend Tokugawa given our approach to the game, but will defer to the team.

Sounds good, I would prefer to wait a week though until the baseball season finishes so I have nothing to distract me ;).

Tokugawa and Washington can both work. Tokugawa gets cheap barracks and promotion(and earlier UU), washington gets financial trait. I cant be sure which would help us more, but in this game our economy was the thing that struggled, so financial may be able to help that out.
 
I also thought Genghis (aggressive and expansive) as the extra health might help on Immortal but happiness and money were our big problems last game. Our money problems were early on rather than later on so Organised might not be that great. Financial would help though. What about Victoria (financial and expansive)? Redcoats are a good UU as well.

Anyway, the football season has finished here two weeks ago and cricket hasn't started yet so no distractions on this side of the pond.
 
I am game for any leader, this will be a very tough game anyway

Anyone saw the tweaks Blake is making to the AI. Now that looks also interesting, seems the AI is much smarter in his version, would be worth a try next time. (now someone only needs to come up with a mod that gives us back 2D graphics)
 
Okay, the World Series is over, is everyone ready to get started? I'll play any leader as well but let me state the case for Tokugawa:

1. He is Aggressive, and this series seems to always feature an Aggressive Leader.

2. The two buildings we will be putting in every city are Courthouses and Barracks, which are half off.

3. Organized scales with level, and upkeep on Immortal is going to be brutal.

4. Samurai have a long shelf life.

That said, I don't really mind any other leader, I vote we let Qwack make the call since he started this series.
