it;s funny that our game has turned into a AW game. We learned a way how to turn permanent peace into permanent war 
Preturn: Not sure why we didn't already switch to Free Market(Didn't realize we have no anarchy?). I switch to it and Theocracy as well for the extra xp and promotion.
Also raise Culture to 10% which helps a lot vs WW.
I do switch science for Steel and Cannon. Cavalry requires 3 techs - music Nationalism and Mil Trad.
Early: We have no Frigates and are losing our water resources. I will change this and build some;.
Mid: Our first Frigate
Late Several attacks on our town on Ghandi's island. Grenadier with town defense to hold off the Assault.
Notes:
Maybe I am building too many frigates. Feel free to switch.
Played to an even number of turns (divisible by 5) though this felt slightly less than 10 turns.
I stayed out of Ghandi's land as I didn't feel we could make progress on an attack and we don't want more WW from being in enemy territory (PS. Though check the boats for this).

just play this game, it's now AW for us except for Roosevelt and very weak Saladin. Thus, we will suffer WW pretty soon and can't do much about it.
Just finish the game with grace.

this is one turnset i was glad to be done with i have to say.
I managed to capture susa with maces/pikes/sword lol but didn't raze it, and next turn Ghandys stack of rifles and Dragoons showed from the fog, turn later recaptured susa. So much for that. Did transfer some granadiers to Tarsus we can hold it for now. Culture slider is up to 20% and COmmunism is due next turn. Demanded and got some cash from Sahaladin.
Tried to do some MM in few cities but gave up as it dont make sense, we'll have to up culture slider up again soon. True AW game for sure.
There's nothing to be done but build some granadiers and try to capture more cities. Very tedious. It's funny we are capturing cities we gifted to Ghandy (why did we do it again? dont matter...)
Good luck to next player...

The upload server had problems. It seems to be working again, though.
Here is the link to the saves: http://gotm.civfanatics.net/submit/civ4sgotm_submission_list.php

Well I played. There is absolutely nothing we can do. Gandhi sends unit after unit at our city on his continent. He has bombed down the defenses and is slowly crippling our forces there. His cavs unfortunately beat our grens. I think messing with him is a lost cause. Let's save us all the boredom of waiting to lose that city and go after somebody else. Gandhi will take that city back one way or another.

ok, since this endeavour against Ghandi seems not very successful, maybe will turn towards Huaya and make some progress there.
