I'm speechless at that equation. And here I thought I was finally done with math...

@Silu,
Ok, your math has convinced me.
I kept thinking - we're not even rushing production, so what do we need Kremlin for? Then I remembered that the Kremlin could simply function as a righteous residence for Comrade Stalin.

Can not take math j/k any more.

Plan: Cap Roosy.
What is democracy good for? We can make Gandhi switch back in caste if we really want to get ride of the happy problem (-1 currently). I really really don't want to leave caste now anyway (we would loose more production than what we gain). Can always take it for more points if u wanna it guys...
Flight needs combustion also so I will stick to electricity waiting for Churchill's steam power. Will redirect vassal researchs after brokering it. Unless we have other needs?
agree. Will scout waiting for the two other stacks more likely.
Only one day late!
Playing in a few hours (unless major things are still to be discussed)
The next player should gift Frankfurt to Churchill and research democracy enough so that we can pick it up from Gandhi. Then we can broker it for steam power

I've got nothing at all constructive to add here, and yet I feel compelled to post.
Democracy is good for score! lol And brokering to vassals ofc. Not sure if actually putting research into it is worth it in this regard. Flight is probably the only tech that can even theoretically actually speed up our victory here but it's miles away behind Railroad/Combustion etc.
Frigates could theoretically speed things up by bombarding coastal cities. I think there are enough Galleons

^^ OK will trade for democracy (we can have it against physics ans steel from indians)...

Yes, as Silu pointed out, trading for democracy is for points and also for tech brokering purposes. Nothing like milking 3.19 vassals!

OK played 8 or 9 turns... but Roosy is still free 
We captured four cities and he should accept capitulation once we take Chicago or San Francisco.
We got another GG settled in the Moai city (together with theo/dridock/Pentagone we can build level 4 ships there).
Airships are mandatory because there aren't many rifles/grenies left now, it's all infantries
Can finish him off tomorow or pass the save
Btw I put beakers on AL as the money we gain while waiting for english railroad will be needed to finish flight. (hum not clear, what I mean is that researching combustion -> flight directly won't gain us the tech sooner...)

Looks good. See how the works?
Roosevelt should fold as soon as he's willing to talk? The main thing here is avoiding dom IMO. Gift Frankfurt at least. These are the current numbers:
We'll need to unload min. 50 tiles our so through gifts.
I think we should just DOW DG asap. That would speed up the "Refuses to Talk" period.

The guy is really pissed at us... 4 cities taken and he doesn't talk? I guess our losses might be a tad on the high side with Cossacks vs entrenched Infs
Damn, how did DG get Rifling as well?
At last count he didn't even have Replaceable Parts. Not sure if we want to pre-DoW him as Rifles can still hurt our Cossack defense force. Hunting Roosy's navy is good though as any unit kill now could send him begging for his life.
Also noticed that settling the GS was incredibly dumb, seeing how we would get a GA next turn probably had I not done that... Oh well.

I agree we should gift some cities around (forgot to gift the one bordering english but it didn't revolt at least...)
DG with rifles (did I said "damn quick speed!" already?) will not be much of a problem (remember he is french
), next turn we will have 12 airships in their sky wreaking havoc
And yeah, killing infantries with cavs is expansive, it feels like a good old chariot rush on Charlemagne's face... except each turn is another half hour
settling the GS: well yeah, not the very best in end game
(maybe we can grow another spy or something starving St pet to death before the end game: would be cool to end in golden age!)

(maybe we can grow another spy or something starving St pet to death before the end game: would be cool to end in golden age!) I really thought the game would be over by now and as we know GSpies are notoriously useless near the end... This was before I realized the sad truth about Roosy's military units that I thought was unconceivable at the time (actually, I noticed that as early as I did because it was settled ). In hindsight that GSpy is probably one of the biggest mistakes in the whole game (especially considering I missed the discussed plans for it )... I regard it as payment for getting all the crappy jobs of buildup/transportation and none of the fun facesmashing Okay, enough excuses, let's get on with some

Reminds me of SGOTM 9 when we ended the game in a GA as well. Perhaps we're not so good on the endgame part Roster:

I'm sorry, I have a really stupid problem... whenever I do anything on my keyboard, windows media player is launched. Like a hundred times. -.- I thought a new keyboard might solve this... I just got it but it didn't help... please skip me.
