Celts - Turn 121

The Celtic Army conducts 'training exercises' outside Techno-whatever and up north. Peace with Aztecs is up. One med inf accidentally spills into Aztec territory though...

Celts - Turn 127

Bought navigation and physics fr the Arabs in exchange for wine, dyes and 54 gold. Sending all three techs (incl banking) over.

The Second Aztec War is drawing to a close, with the Aztecs down to last city. Generated a GL earlier, during a skirmish up north. Used to rush Bach's in Entremont.

Researching economics in 5 turns.

Alesia switched to Magellan's. To be completed in 1 turn. The future Celtic navy needs the extra movement points.

Game will be emailed.

 

[Knight-Dragon]

The Aztecs, holed up in their last stronghold.... No significant resistance...

 

[Knight-Dragon]

My third GL.... Will form an army of knights...

Maybe I shld let the Aztecs live, just to harvest GLs...

 

[Knight-Dragon]

Celts - Turn 134

ToG in 1 turn. Arabs building Newton's at Basra. Will need to spy later.

Main army being stationed at Tlatelolco; ships arriving to ferry troops for a new campaign overseas soon. But the Koreans are succumbing to the Carthaginian onslaught... War with Carthage may be imminent...

Otherwise, generally peaceful development.

Game will be emailed.

PS BTW, the Aztecs had been destroyed by the rampaging Celts a few turns ago. Second Aztec War ended.

Looks like the Babs are in the industrial age!

Spain, turn 139:

The King of Spain declares war on Babylon!
The citizens of Elipi recently overthrew their Babylonian oppressors and joined the Kingdom of Spain. King donsig believes other Babylonians would do the same if not for the recent cruel measures enacted by Hammurabi to prevent a further shrinking of this power. The Spanish King could not sit idly by as his Babylonian cousins are prevented from joining his kingdom. He therefore declared war on Babylon to liberate those who wish to join the Kingdom of Spain. One city has already been liberated by the Spanish cavalry.

(Hmmm... did I miss out on the Spanish UU?)

Game e-mailed.

Despaired of the eternal war betw the Carthaginians and Koreans, the Celtic Army decided to take a hand. Breaking 2 deals to world outrage, the Celtic Army landed a large force in Korea, preparing to occupy the Korean cities to ensure they remained forever free fr the clutches of the evil Carthaginian invaders...

 

[Knight-Dragon]

The Celtic Army liberated the first Korean city. The natives were so thrilled though.... Lost a few middle-aged (inside joke ) med infantry...

 

[Knight-Dragon]

Celts - Turn 150

The Celtic Army liberated Inchon.

Nationalism done. Researching steam power in 4 turns. I think I forgot to send nationalism over....

The Celtic Empire had surpassed the Arabs...

Game will be emailed.

 

[Knight-Dragon]

Our new Provincia Korea....

 

[donsig]

The Kingdom of Spain after 150 turns:

 

[Knight-Dragon]

Celts - Turn 151

Sent nationalism over. Some of the AI already got steam power and communism. I hate accelerated production.... 3 turns to steam power.

The Arab-Japanese War isn't going very well for the Japanese. Already got one city razed and another one or two conquered. The Arabs would probably surpass me again later...

Nothing happening on the Korean front. Saw a couple of Korean longbowmen heading towards me though... Packed off a few more troops to Provincia Korea. I think I'd be reinforcing that area, as well as siphoning troops off to Tolosa...

Other than that, mundane stuff...

Game emailed.

 

[Knight-Dragon]

Celts - Turn 161

1 more turn to corporation.

Building factories all around. RRing too.

Forgot to fish for some diplo deals...

Game will be emailed.

 

[Knight-Dragon]

The situation off Spanish North Coast....

 

[donsig]

Spain - turn 170:

After the recent peace making binge the Kingdom of Spain dissolved itself in favor of democracy.

Too tired tonight. Forgot to raise research rate and also forgot to do a screenshot

I did remember to upload the game though.

 

[Knight-Dragon]

Celts - Turn 171

4 turns to atomic theory.

Workers (free and slave alike) busy building RRs, clearing jungles and cleaning up pollution.

Cities still building city improvements like factories and hospitals; but in a few turns will be churning war-making material.

We envision a naval armanent programme soon. The seas belong to us.
