Subscribed, the Takeo stories must go on.
2230 B.C.
To the east, another tribe has been discovered and they are called the Carthaginians.
Hannibal of Carthage meets with King Gudea, speaks briefly of his hated enemy-Caesar, and then makes a quick exit.
Gudea wondered if it would be wise to put off researching superior weapons, when there are rumors of war to the east. Only time would tell.
2150 B.C.
Science Advisor- Our research will progress well, due to this generous funding. Once we construct an Alphabet, we will then be able to learn Writing and eventually record our history.
Gudea was eager to see the history of his people recorded for all time, but was sad his father was not here to see the progress the Sumerian people had made.
2070 B.C.
Some Hittite peasants, and their escort, are spotted southeast of Babylonian territory.
Gudea grew really perturbed with this threat and was about to answer, when the Foreign Advisor whispered in his ear.
Foreign Advisor- Do not provoke him, Great One, for he has seven cities to our three and the Military Advisor says Mursilis has a superior military.
Gudea held his tongue and played nice with the Hittite King for the rest of the meeting, but there were no offers or trades forthcoming.
1910 B.C.
After traveling far to the east, Gilgamesh has found the Romans.
Wonder of the world?
Gudea was beginning to see that some rulers of the world were either drunk or insane.
The meeting with the Roman leader was brief, as Caesar's military advisor interrupted and called him away. As Gudea left the meeting, he overheard the two of them mention Carthage and General Hannibal several times.
1475 B.C.
Weary from his long journey, Gilgamesh arrives back at Ur with many stories to tell.
King Gudea embraces his friend and welcomes him home.
1425 B.C.
A couple of advisors come before King Gudea, to tell him of a potential trade with Carthage.
Foreign Advisor- Carthage is willing to trade knowledge- their Pottery for our Wheel. Most of the nations we have contact with already know of the Wheel, and if any of them trade it to Carthage, the oppurtunity would be lost.
Domestic Advisor- I agree with this trade, my King. The granaries we could then build, would allow our cities to grow faster.
Gudea, needing no further prodding, made contact with Hannibal to complete the trade.

I bet the AI won't tolerate you for much longer. I can tell that you are preparing for war with Carthage.

Nice story.
1400 B.C.
Science Advisor-Great One, we have assembled an Alphabet and can now begin to learn Writing. Before long we will be able to record our history and also sign written agreements with other nations.
Gudea continued to fund research generously, but only to the point of still having a positive flow of gold.
When he was a boy, Gudea had experianced a vivid dream one night, that apparently was about his future. In the dream, he had introduced to the world a series of patterns and symbols, that could be used to communicate with. Upon opening the scrolls the science advisor handed him, Gudea knew this Alphabet was what he had dreamed about all those years ago.
King Gudea had his foreign advisor immediately contact all known nations.
Whether the other leaders had something to trade or not, Gudea was prepared to spread the Alphabet across the world.
>Byzantines- Theodora willingly gave the secrets of Ceremonial Burial & 70 gold for the Alphabet.
>Hittites- Mursilis offered up knowledge of Horseback Riding, but asked for 56 gold to be sent with the Alphabet.
>Babylon- Hammurabi was unwilling to part with knowledge his experts had uncovered-the ability to shape iron into instruments of war.
King Gudea gave all other nations, including Babylon, the knowledge of Alphabet as a free gift. He had fulfilled the dream, that he had experianced so long ago, and he was very happy.
Foreign Advisor- Your Majesty, most of our neighbors are now polite towards us. This is a very generous thing you have done!
Gudea nodded with agreement. This would be a good idea for the town of Agade, with it being so close to the Ottoman town of Uskudar.
1225 B.C.
King Gudea was just sitting down to a feast, when the foreign advisor entered with a worried look on his face.
Foreign Advisor- The Byzantines are here and wish to speak directly to you.
Gudea- Show them in.
This was something new to King Gudea. He had never known anyone to outright demand anything from him! Was Theodora doing this cause she had to trade something for Alphabet, when most other nations received it for free?
With the military advisor revealing that Byzantium was militarily powerful, Gudea gave her the knowledge that she demanded.
Before the King could collect his thoughts, another foreign emissary was ushered into the room.
The Military Advisor put in a few words.
Knowing that the military advisor was right, Gudea once more turned over the secrets of Horseback Riding and it left a bad taste in his mouth.
With Hannibal's parting words still fresh in his mind-
Gudea vowed the he would never give in again. NO MORE!
The military advisor was instructed to train more Enkidu warriors, corral the horses near Kish and then build chariots in all available towns.
Next time we will be better prepared, Gudea mused.

Wars or competition of any sort between the AI and the human player are interesting. I always learn something out of it.

War is not only one possible way to get lead in game, on high levels like deity or demigod you should trade and trade to get up in techs, at least in the middle of the game, because AI get huge boost in production and starting units. On regent-monarch you need just 3-4 archers for an early rush to sign then peace for AI's goods. But when you will move up in levels you will see that early war isn't good option in the most situations.

I like watching AI vs AI wars. Its fun. That reminds of good ol' civ1 when whenver you started a game, a few turns later a civ will get destroyed by one other civ, and that one civ will conquer the world. Except not my civ of course.
Off topic, anyway, waiting for an update takeo

It's probably because wars make stories more interesting. Especially when they involve pictures of all the carnage and destruction, or the whole "paint the map my color" deal.
Which probably explains why my mostly builder story is rather boring...
