Time for update as I razed one of Robi's towns.
I'm first in each stats gnp, power, culture etc. I'm pretty sure Robi's starting position is not as good as I have.
Current empire consist 4 towns. size 9 cap, 6, 5, 4 IIRC. I have these buildings 1 academy, library, 2 forges, 4 barracks. I'm in military mode nothing but War elephants and Keshiks are being producted.
I don't have metals, lucky enough I found Ivory and horses. Concerding the war vs Robi D is going well. Kill ratio something like 22-7. I have demolished tons of spears and axes. Lost units include 2 galleys along with 2 war elephants, 2 cats, a scout.
I'll add a screenie later.
