Huayna Capac's 3 City Cultural Challenge: PArt II
As I promised a long round!!!
First of all we meet the next AI
OK, an easy leader to get along with
We proceeded to spam wonders in Cusco, getting Stonehenge, the Great Wall and finally the oracle
We selected MEtal Casting as the free tech for fast forges and first crack at the Colossus.
Here is the currect view of Cuzco, note we popped silver
Our first GP
We settled
And finally we settled our third city, claiming the 2 dye and the wheat
We built the pyramids and acutally founded
We did NOT convert in hopes of diplomacy. We have yet to build anything besides the starting Quechuas
And adjust our civics
After teching IW we locate one close source of iron.
Soon the former Khmer capital claims the iron. We are set for self defense providing we can build a decent army. We also built the Colossus. We also got a second GProphet which we settled un Cuzco and met
Now this I DO NOT like, and she is located off the coast SW of us.
Wemanaged to build the parthenon in Cusco but missed out on the Great Library in our third city by a few turns.
And a nice backfill trades
We do not need monarchy for HR but building wineries is a big bonus.
We got the free GArtist from Music and settled him in Twianku
In interest of peace we tributed alphabet to Issabella.
We meet another Zealot
And am I ever glad to have NOT adopted a state religion.
And while we are still running arround with Quechuas, you can see our big tech lead.
It would certainly be nice to have some military from this. I'lkl put it on the To Do List.
Since Wang was "We Have Enough On Our Hands" I agree to this trade in hopes of getting him his favorite civic
We also managed to build the Sistene CHapel.
And finally at the save, let's have a look at the full three city area
We are claiming some nice resources out side of the standard BFC's
And a view of our three cities
Sury's capital I am saving for the National Park and mass artists there. IOf we don't get that far, oh well.
So right now I am trying to spam crossbows out quickly to boost the power numbers and avoid any unwelcomed visits.
There are also 2 other AIs out there!!!
Most likely proceeding with the game but looking for any comments.
