Succesion Game (PG1): The mighty Germans (with edited rules)

It's been 29h now, and we have no responses from Rymiss, so Gumby you may take your 15 turns.

Rymiss, if you get here before Gumby posts, and if you're willing to play it quick (within 4h), I think you can do it. However, if Gumby gets here first you'll be skipped.
 
ah crap, stupid forum didnt send me an email saying people had replied to the thread. ill play right away.
 
Update:
Rymiss is playing.
Gumby, you're next.

I hope you don't mind waiting a bit more.
 
A good turn for me pretty much.

1625AD- Rymisster rose to power by popular demand. Gems traded to Babylon for Spices. Incense traded to Russia for 20g (Per Turn).

1630AD- Indian Warrior & Settlar land near New Katzenstein. Not really a problem.

1635AD- Anarchy ended and the German Democracy is formed! Gems traded to England for 26g (Per Turn).

1640AD- Greece and Babylon sign Peace Treaty. 'We love the Chancellor day' celebrated in various cities.

1645AD- Bank built in Iron Spot and production now on University. Granary completed in Far North, production now on Aqueduct.

1650AD- Cathedral completed in Pggarpolis and production changed to Bank.

1655AD- Tokyo trained Musketman. Edo built Settler and is now building a Forbidden Palace. Production in Izumo switched to Aqueduct. Settler being sent to fill in gap between the cities Liberty Capital, Kagoshima and KANGsville.

1660AD- Colosseum completed in Berlin, production now on Shakespeare's Theater. English landed Spearman and Settler near the gap I plan to settle!

1665AD- Russia demands Territory Map and 87g. I refuse and they just insult me but didnt declare war. English settle right where they landed thanks to a blockade of workers stopping them from moving to where our Settler was heading. Metallurgy reasearched and we are now researching Military Tradition.

1670AD- I establish Embassies in Greece, India, Russia and with the Aztecs. Cathedral built in Moo Point, production changed to Bank. Rymmyland built in the gap. Production quickly set on Temple. Gems traded to Greece for 12g (Per Turn). Metallurgy traded to the Aztecs for World Map, 5g (Per Turn) and 15g.

1675AD- Babylons and the Aztecs sign Peace Treaty. Aztecs demand Territory Map and 64g. Refused and they declare war on us. Aztec Swordsman slaughtered by defending Knight. Marketplace built in Nagoya and production now on Granary. Our Knight kills Pikeman defending Zitlaltepec and captures it. Temple being produced in captured city. Knight attacks Umma, kills defending Spearman and captures the city! As usual production set on Temple.

1680AD- 2 Aztec Knights assault Fukushima and capture it :mad: . Libary done in Incense Hill production now on Aqueduct.

1685AD- Babylon declare war on English. University in Nagasaki done, production now on Bank. Our Knight kills Aztec Knight creeping up on Umma. Another Knight kills Aztec Longbowman near Umma.

1690AD- Knights heading to recapture Fukushima.

1695AD- University built in Iron Spot, production now on Harbor. Marketplace in Nextrem completed and production changed to Aqueduct. Addition added to palace. Knight attacks Fukushima and died in combat. Second Knight attacks and wins against defending Aztec Knight capturing Fukushima! Production set to Temple.

Goals for next player: After taking the last Aztec city on Alenes (sp?) they wont really be a problem and they will sign a Peace Treaty easily. I also think we are too far behind in tech to win the game with a Space or Diplo victory, playing the game out to 2050AD may be the only way to go. Focus alot on Trade & Science.
 
When we get into relations for ending the German-Aztec war, we should press for as much as we can. I do think we have potential, albeit a small one, for a space victory. Hoping for a score victory would be senseless, unfortunately.
 
It's been 27h and no answer from Gumby.
I'm giving you a few more hours since I can't play right away, but if you don't reply soon, you'll be skipped.
 
Ok, Gumby is oficially skipped now.
I'm playing the game, and I'll have the results soon.
 
Before starting my turn I
Increased the price of luxuries to the English, Egyptians, Russian and Indians. Our cash flow jumped from 27/turn to 90/turn. Also, Military Tradition will take a turn instead of 2.

1700ad - Military Tradition researched. Physics next. Good news, we're technologically updated. The city of New Ashur was captured from the evil Aztecs.
1705ad - Belindaville completed the great project of Smitzer's Trading Company. The upgrading of the German defensive line started.
1710ad - Umma deposed our governor and flipped to the Babylonians.
1715ad - 4 Aztec caravels and 2 galley approach Alenes. Our cities are completly umprotected. Fortunately the Aztecs signed a Peace Treaty and paid 6gold/turn plus 12 gold in tribute. The Aztec also paid 22gold/turn for our fine gems. The Babs finished the Shakespere Theater. All production in Berlin lost.
1720ad - Aztec fleet retreats. Thanks God!!!
1735ad - Palace expansion.
1745ad - England ends Gems trade as they don't have money. Renewed Babilonians trade routes. Now we give 2 luxuries and receive 2 luxuries and 13gold/turn.
1750ad - Most of our defense is upgraded.
1760ad - Edo completed the Forbidden Palace.
1762ad - Finished the research of Theory of Gravity. After we research Magnetism, we'll switch ages and gain tech lead.
1768ad - Greek and Egyptians started Newton's College, but they won't beat us in this race. Magnetism will come in 2 turns.

We're crossing the transition phase every regent game has. When we pass the AI in technology and get the lead of the game (a bit late I would say). It took a long time to happen in this game, but I believe we can still win. The Histograph victory is only an option if we decide to destroy theBabylonians and Aztec fast. The victory path we're most likely to have is diplomatic, but we'll have to increase our research rate a lot and improve our reputation before we can think of it.

I've played 20 turns. From now on feel free to play between 10-20 turns. We have a lot of game ahead and you should play the amount of turns you feel comfortable with.

Here's our stabilished border and the Histografh.

My log is a bit confuse. It's 3am, and I'm still awake, so that's why.

I'm back. Sorry I kept you waiting, but because of some serious connection problems I couldn't post a reply. Sorry for that. Hope I'm still in the game
 
Don't worry Gumby. I know how connection troubles can really get in the way some times.
I've skipped you just to get the game going. If you wanna play now, I have no objections, and since Morten doesn't have any either, you should go for it.
Just let us know. :goodjob:
 
1768 The lazy Ludwig von Bayern obtains power by a majority of vote from the german nobles, and sets out to bring Germany even further than his predecessors. Science and culture must prosper he proclaims. And another priority will most certainly be to contain those english villages on the german continent before they start demanding privileges at court.

1770 Germany enters a new advanced age, obtaining nationalism, and now researching medicine.

1774 Babylonians take Bath, on our continent, and they raze it! Babylon will be our enemy no.1 from now on. Longterm war preparations must start sometime, but somehow there's always a new exciting building project going on, so Ludwig decides to go cultural for some time yet.

1782 Starts settler in Edo to build city on the strip. Consider to build a couple of ships, but need more gold. Everything is going well. All cities are building libraries or universities or banks. We'll have medicine within 4 years.

1786 Medicine researched, starts sanitation project.
1788 Sold nationalism to the indians for good profits.

1792 Strip founded on the strip. ;)

1798 Ludwig lives to see the completion of Newtons University in Berlin, before he dies from an infection caused by the stinging of a winged insect...
 
1. Exactly when did we go to war with Babylon? No matter, we should now pit all the other nations against Babylon, with trades and such. I also suggest that, now that we have Nationality, we begin 'picking' on nations, by convincing all the nations to embargo one other nation, like Aztecland. Then we sign MPPs with everyone, and keep provoking Aztecland until they declare war...thus gaining the wrath of all other nations on the planet.

2. I'm giving Gumby until 9 PM EST to play the game before I do. After that, I'll grab it up.

Oh. Well, your post was written in a manner that made me believe that Bath was our city.
I have to say I had the same impression. So I rush to the game to check the situation. I was really worried. :eek:
