Saladin No cottages Immortal

[monkspider]

Great game guys, congratulations!
The Muti-Rat-Uberfish team always give us the most entertaining games. You were great as well qwack.

This should definitely be one of the historic SGs. I don't think hardly anyone would have thought a no cottage immortal game would be possible until you guys proved them wrong!

since i can't even beat immortal with cottages, i'm astounded by your "easy" win without any cottage!
The spiritual/philosophical leader was a big part of it, don't you think?
(i didn't count but almost every turnset had its civic change+GP came in easily)

 

[acidsatyr]

yes, having your own religion and being philo/spiritual is the main reason why they managed this brilliant win, imho. Also other civs weren't as nearly as agressive as they couldve been.
I don't think this would be possible on this difficulty playing as, say, Cyrus and having Monty, Alex and other gang around...

Lurker's comments
Great job on the win, how about this:
Immortal no cottage (same variant)
but map is Lakes, and arid climate (maybe). Very little water for extra commerce... and while you're at it, play as Alex. Should be interesting

Wow! Congratulations gentleman. I read the whole thing start to finish and I'm duly impressed. I really learned a lot about the power of whipping and drafting. I hope to use some of what I learned to get my first immortal victory.

I think this game should be the only reply to the daily "CE vs SE"-thread.
i really like reading your SG-threads and think you make a really good team, especially as you all have a unique style in playing.

i am currently playing different variants on emperor and hope to move up to immortal soon. and maybe someday i can join in a game as i became a really big fan of SGs. Started the first SG in the german civforum.de some days ago, you really know who lurks over here or is a newbie on SGs after a few turns

WOW. I'm totally blown away! I read the whole game start to finish! I'm stuck on Noble, but I've learned enough from this one SG to move on, I think. Will try several of these tactics tonight!

You bumped a three year old topic..

Indeed, but it has to be said that Mutineer and Acid games were awesome , I began lurking at this period approximatly and felt the same way of Blitzkrieg1980...

 

[blitzkrieg1980]

I'm glad I bumped it. That night, I kicked major ass thanks to this SG
