SiSi 002 - Cuddle with Bullies

I thought captured wonders do not give culture? They do, checking the save. When was this changed? Ulundi next. Then his second city, then Holy Rome, and then whoever's going to pressure us after that. Boudica?

not sure actually, thought so to, untill i checked rome and yasodaphura city views... Maybe a side-effect of the BUG mod? it's known to have a couple of those...

anyway, i'd like a military base in lisbon maybe?

Shaka will be to hard. He has two cities (i think) and a galley+settler going up for the island near lisbon to settle.
 
can anyone take the save? If nobody wants it within the next 24 hours, I will take it.
 
got it. game is paused until after Xmas.

MERRY HOLIDAY TO ALL!
 
Oh indeed! Sorry! I'll post asap
 
played 15 turns, Construction is in, we now research currency. Holy Rome is no more, I'd suggest catapults now, kill Greece and Zulu.
To keep in mind: Celts lack iron. Killing Holy Rome gave them iron. It is not mined yet. There is an Axe on goto to Aachen.... we could grab those two workers from the Celts now.....

Yaso should be whipped ASAP.

who can take it now? TLO36? Just grab it....
 
me? Back-to-Back playing isn't how succesion games work. I could take it today but shouldn't we wait? we have a 7 people rostor, hard to believe everyone is gone.
 
Sudden got it.

Sudden turnset.

Hope you don't mind I played it, TLO.


Turn 0 (130)

Moving a sword tells me 2 archers. 2 archers, 4 swords. But then there's Vienne. Well, we won against Sury, right? But 3 turns to get there, Bib can whip an archer....... :( What the hell. do dododoood whoooooooo War on the Celts!

Turn 1 (131)

Bib whips an archer. It's down to.. seven pop.

***

Turn 2 (132)

****, an archer apppears. **** **** ****, we lose.

Yeah right. Were you all tense? Good. Because there are 2 CR3 swords and 2 CR2 ones. Now, the CR3 get 70% odds. Yes, we might still lose. More tension? Good good. You weren't the one clicking the buttons.

First sword, 70% odds.

Spoiler :
Wins!


2nd CR3 Sword, 85.7% odds.

Spoiler :
Sword Wins! Sword Wins! Sword Wins!


1st CR2 Sword, and TLO, we shouldn't be using BUG!

66.8% odds.

Spoiler :
WINNER!!!!!!


Last battle. CR2 Sword vs Guerilla1 Archer. Obviously, if Bibracte was on a hill we would not have won. Guess what, the Archer is fresh!! Odds: 75.3%. Oh jeez.

Spoiler :
Don't you just hate it when you can tell from the battle animations who's won? That's why I turn on single unit graphics. I forgot to, so no tension.

BIBRACTE IS OURS!


Worker actions come after millitary? Awwwwww

And whip Yasod for good measure. I starve it for some commerce as it's at happy limit and I save us 2gpt.

Rome is stagnated at happy limit, I should have checked all cities at T0 instead of rushing into war. Ah well.

Turn 3 (133)

Yasod Lib -> Barracks.

Some mediator offers us peace with Suryavarman.

Yes, don't want Galleys pillaging. I don't want to wait for feudalism to see if we can vassalise.

Do some fancy shmacy MM in Lisbon to whip at optimal overflow point.

Turn 4 (134)

Maybe keeping Bib was silly. Culture starved by Greece and Vienne and Ulundi. There is something wrong. The Great Wall should be producing 2cpt, as Stonehenge is. I'm sure the BUG mod did not cause this, but something did.

And, idiotically, I moved a worker into Boudi's territory to see how many Archers Vienne has. 3, with time for a fourth. Eh..... more tension?

Ah, bastard, I forgot to take into account a turn of produciton in my optimal whipping point at Lisbon. Bugger.

Turn 5 (135)

Staling asks us to declare war on Willem and I accept. No worries.

Boudicca did not take our worker.

Rudely kill an Archer of Boudi's. 4 Archers in Vienne, she might get a fifth, I will not take 5 70-80% odds in a row. Or will I....

NO. Take peace, not Vienne.

Turn 7 (137)

Rome Cat -> Cat

Rome starves.

Turn 8 (138)

No, nooo, no noooo. Nooo. Byzantine revolt in Bibracte. No :(. No city flipping after conquest, damnit! Move all units out of Bib. You can have it. I'll liberate it to you next turn. Then' I'l ltake it back. The same turn.

Turn 9 (139)

No, wait I want to check if he has copper hooked up and to heal a wee bit more.

Turn 10 (140)

Mine is hooked up.

But look, 10 turns. I could play 15. Yes, I could make you more tense, readers. I could stay up until 4:45AM. Or I could pass it on, with a smile, the Swords unmoved, with a few words.

The copper is hooked up, the Swords are unhealed.

But don't you want to take Bibracte?

If you do it, I want credit for this hilariously unorthodox move. I'd do it :P You might just want to gift him Bib and bring along the cats in Rome and Lisbon. Safer. Mind leave a unit in Bib if you take it. Boudicca must be crying.

Save. Rome and Yasod are starving. Watch them to see how many turns.

Yah, i'm gonna ask the people at the BUG mod. I think it's the Mod. Otherwise, Great Turnset. To bad Bibactre is in culture revolt :(

worked like a charm, hu?

If not the game is yours, TLO!

You don't mean that you won't be playing until Chinese New Year, right?
