Good luck (you'll need it)

[sand]

note: this post will consist of 13 screenshoots at a 1024 by 768 resulution.


the machine good demands a worker

pete asks for open boarders

ok now it gets interesting

we got COL the machine god lead us to cout houses, caste system , laws a new society. but with a new society comes..

a holy city and with that comes

a new religion

anyway the machine god serves up polythiesm and sailingsailing is quite useless so i go for poly

barbarian hordes raid our gold

well heres my second attempt to trick the machine god but this time it worked

we get poly

then the machine god offers more usless techs

i click the bigger icture and when i get back i get offered

mathemarics is much more useful it leads to construction the ai can't get enough of cats.

well i think its safe to say we have a problem

i decieded not to post our foreign advisor since i'd like the war to come as a shock.

 

[frankcor]

Good going, sand. I didn't realize the AI would offer a new choice if you go into "big picture" and come back again.

WAR?!?!?!

 

[sand]

well were not actually at war its just very likely we will be in one

OK got it. Will be able to post and play tonight (my time!).

The only good thing about a war (if it comes) is that the AI will then switch to military production and with some whipping we may then have a decent army, as long as the AI doesn't send a huge stack of death our way!

 

[Ozbenno]

Roll up, roll up folks to the greatest show on earth. You get to see the slowest train crash in history. Can they survive the bad advise given to them by the greatest computer mind ever seen?

425AD - Up the research rate to 90%, shave a turn of mathematics. Was about to rant abuse because we're not mining the iron and then remembered, it's not up to us!!!!!

440AD - Why are we building all these farms????

455AD - Barb archer sacrifices against Shanghai. Shanghai produces worker.



Some more military yay!!!

470AD - Can you hear the drums Hatshepsut? (I first thought it was us when I heard them)



485AD - 500AD -

515AD - Peter asks us to join his war. I ask him "With what?". Didn't need Tacitus to tell us we're hopeless.



530AD - 560AD -

575AD - Mathematics ---> Monotheism (OR might help a bit). Guangzhou produces a settler. God knows where to put it so I just leave it for whoever picks this up!

Played a couple extra turns to 605AD (12 all up) to see if this happened (well obviously it did if I'm showing you!?!)



If we get a few swords up, I'd suggest taking out the two barb cities down south. No idea what to do with the settler (fortified in Guangzhou), all your Frankor .

And the save
