Sup everyone!
I've been lurking on these forums for a couple of months, though I never felt the urge of participating yet, selfish me
I'm getting kinda bored of playing civ4 at the moment, well I still love this game but everytime I play I find it either too easy or too challenging and almost never finish a game either way...
So I thought playing a game while posting frequent writeups on the forum might be stimulating for me to play, plus it would definitely help me improve my gameplay, can't wait to get the criticisms of all the experienced players out there.
ANY criticisms are more than welcome, even on my unperfect english . I probably won't be able to resist the urge to play in order to wait for advice between every turnset though...
Anyways, I hope this will be entertaining for everyone who sees this, now let's get to the point...
...this is deity, standard, pangea, normal speed, no huts no events game (fractal is sure fun, but I didn't want to bore you guys with some unplayable isolated start over which I was gonna ragequit anyways)
First random roll is Mansa Musa, nice leader, and the start looks quite good :
Settled 1 NW after moving warrior :
Set research to agriculture and met Joao turn 5, now turn 10 wondering whether I should go BW, AH or maybe even Pottery? Oh and I'm probably about to loose my precious warrior over a stupid bear
Edit : after a short minute of thinking, I'm going Animal Husbandry for the early cows plus chance of horses. If no horses then I'll go straight for Archery
Uploaded the starting save if anyone's interested ^^
Edit : I've put everything into spoilers in case anyone wants to play this map
