Well, i used the Japanese because they are the best and i played Marla Singer's world map. I started in egypt and i had Persians to the south, Indians to the North, and Zulu to the NE (where the chineese were, i dunno.

I took Persia within the first 2000 years, easy. The game progressed me slowly becomming the greatest nation, controling all of the wonders, great and small, having the largest millitary, controlling all of Africa and Asia except for the Siam area that was controlled by the Zulu, you get the picture. Then in 1950's (AD) I started a town on New Ginea right next to a German settlement. They attacked me and won the town. Then i started another town in New Ginea and won both thier city and mine back.

Because they controlled Australia it was an obvious choice for me to take it over so, i did. The continent of Austalia and the some 12 cities on it were controlled by me and it only took about 20 turns (i controlled it by 1972 AD). The next 63 turns (years) went peacefully then in 2041 the French were being attacked by the English and they asked me to help them. I controled the Kamchacka peninsula already and the English were only 2 squares away in Alaska so, i assembled a large Air fleet of over 23 bombers and 4 fighters and 15 tanks made up my ground units while i had 3 naval transports to carry them. I took the English metropolises of Notttingham, Detroit, Oxford, and London by 2049 AD (in succession).

By 2049 I was ready to discuss peace w/ the English so, i got a peace treaty for evrey English city besides York (thier new capital [there were around 10 of them]) and all i gave was 725 gold per turn. It being the last turn I only paid 725 gold and a one-turn peace treaty for (almost) the whole English empire which encompassed the whole of Canada and the American Southwest.

By the end of the game i controlled all of Africa and Austalia, almost all of Asia and a considerable part of North America. Guess who won. Do you think i used a good tactic at the end of the game? Have you ever done anything like this?

Wow for me the AI are always stingy about their citys like they they really have a choice to keep them.
What were you doing feeding the English stupid pills?
 
I would have given them lots of gold per turn :goodjob: :beer: gotten their cities :egypt: :king: then declared war on the now one city civ :tank: :D. But thats just me.
 
It was the last turn of the game. Well done Plexus, only that if you continued to play you woul have to go back to war to prevent bankrputcy
 
huh?
 
I think Plexus means that was his first post ever on CFC.
 
ahh to hell with taboo.
 
Well done, young master. Whatever. I thought you used very good tactics and no, I have never done anything like that. In fact, I'm accually pretty pathetic in Civ3. I mainly quit boring games, so I've only won once. I feel like my head is being ripped apart by a herd of wild pigs.
 
Well, thanks, GM.

For some reason people like to bring up my first post over and over again. Can I ask for a mod to lock this?
 
Wow, 10 cities is good. I haven't gotten more then 2-3 for peace . . .
 
Napoleonic war COnquest

Turn 1: I Invade Northern Napolitan Kingdom, sign alliance & ROP with Spain, for some reason they agree to give me 5 or so cities! I subsequently buy all neutral countries the same way. Dutch manage to get 1 Prussian city. Prussians take it back.

Turn 2: I Win!
