Succession game anyone?

for hyborem...hannah is the quickest route....tried at deity, played as hyoborem and AI civs gangbanged me...
 
I have no intention of waiting for v10, but I think I definitely prefer EitB changes over MNAI ai.
I'll go with the majority, though I know Brian would vote for EitB.

This weekend I'll open a thread in the FFH general about another sg (just as a heads up to those not visiting there) but I'll be assuming the setup I linked earlier, as I think that'd be more fun then just playing out a bog standard hyborem rush (or whatever).
Merovech would be willing to do the WB changes tor us too.

I agree that the EitB changes are highly appropriate for multiplayer, but this is a single player vs AI game, and it sort of feels like cheating to not use the most up-to-date AI code. The point might be moot as they will *hopefully* release the new version this month.
 
Played.
Only got the tower of Div to rush, I suggest waiting until we have 20,000 gold stored and then rushing it.
Then rush the tower of Mastery (tests show it takes 26000 gold to rush), and we're done.
The micro will likely look stupid, but remember that all that matters now is GOLDGOLDGOLD.
If it wasn't for Chalid I'd have switched to Kilmorph too - SoK builds would let us shave off quite a bit of time (I still think its wisest, but thought I'd better check with team before killing off our best unit).
Stay 100% gold - the slight culture/happy benefit isn't worth the cost, especially now we can build Enchantment nodes everywhere :)
I rushed ToN so we can trade away our entropy mana - furious basium is not a problem we want.
 
Save.

Technically we save 14 gpt if we run 10% science, plus we will be able to finish Strength of Will sometime this century without burning through our reserves.

For our great people, I would focus on getting prophets or engineers, we don't really need scientists right now do we? Prophets bring $$ with their building, and engineers speed up the tower build.

We still have a dungeon to explore, everything else is looking good!
 
We shouldnt get any new GP.
We don't need science - we get a free tech with ToD.
 
Hey so what is the state of the game? turtling and towering? should I stop building troops? Do I need to fight anyone? Do we have meta nodes up?
 
The tower of Divination should finish up pretty soon to get us the Tower of Mastery tech. If we concentrate on just gathering gold, we should have enough in 20ish turns. Don't start the tower until you get 20k or so to minimize our war time.
 
All nodes have been built, so you can change all -non tower of divination ones to enchantment.
Then just focus on getting as much gold as possible, through building markets, wealth, spreading kilmorph, deleting units etc.
Remember to trade away the free death mana from the tower of necromancy, and dispel the other "evil" nodes.
Also rejoin the overcouncil, and switch religions to kilmorph to build a host of soldiers of kilmorph to rush it.
At about 20-25 thousand gold (depending on rush cost and soldiers of kilmorph) rush buy the tower of divination, take strength of will, and rush the tower of mastery.
 
Don't start the tower until you are 1 turn from having 25000 gold (slightly less depending on soldiers of kilmorph).
 
I don't think we can trade away the death node as the others have banned it. But once we rejoin it will be as if we don't have death mana anymore.
 
Nah, I'm fine with that (didn't have the time to do so myself).
 
go finish it. Click the end turn button until we win.
 
(Without reopening the save) T300ish, 3000ish gpt(?) (but we're in a GA).
