TSG 271 After Actions

[raider980]

Turn 215 Domination, I went Liberty, then left side honor and settled 6 cities (including 1 crappy tactical city for great wall) Got Machinery turn 159 which I feel was a little late, could've ignored national college tech to get it faster. My national college was also insanely expensive so was probably not worth it to build

I just can't wrap my head around having 31 unhappiness, negative gold and food, and being over the unit limit without freaking out and feeling like I need to fix all those problems. But then that is a winning method - its just so counter intuitive that I can't do it lol.

After reasonably succesful till turn 150, I finally gave up at turn 250.

In opening thread I described my conquest of Polynesia, and was heading for Karakorum. Mongolia was easy to kill and so I thought about Japan. I approached from the south with a plan to chop that 1 forest unlocking more CKNs to strike, but never done it. Bascally every 3-4 turns a wave of 3 samurais was emerging and due to Great Wall I was never ready to kill even 2 of them in 1 tur. However there were able to one hit me (tooltip said 41 strength) , I lost too many units and 2 or 3 GG, and when finally I thought Kyoto is on 0 health and can be taken by haevely injured sword, it occured it was not
Decimated, at 2 melees and 5 CKNs left I white peaced because another wave of Samurais was coming.

So I turned to England and was very succesful killing many units using the strait and was just to embark, when Japan declared, even though I kept them constantly at war witz Zulu, followed by Siam, which already had basically every CS alled.

Meantime Zulus killed Assyria and their army was close enough and I knew their "Friendly" means nothing.

Yes, I could keep fighting England, allow Japan to take Karakorum and go back later, but that is too time and nerves engaging, espacially that Siam became a real monster and at the end I would rather expect them launch before I even reach their border, and I don't think I would have enough strength to slowly move into their teritory.

No.... Deity domintaion against so many civs is not for me yet Even with China

I am pretty sure if I reloaded my t150 and with a knowledge of the map I would succeed - I would simply move early toward England, as both capital were so close to each other. Killed England and Indonesia = more troops for long trip to the east. Lack of proper scouting = fail

Turn 205 DomV

Playing this one Ive had some map knowledge after reading after actions thred still made a lot of mistakes tho.

Went 5 city Liberty with expos, n crab, s uluru, sw citrus and w cotton. This turned out pointless as most of profuction came from capital anyway.

Stolen some workers from Gengis, and one of nw city states.

FIRST army(cbs)went gengis, Japan, assyria, ghandi(from Zulus) and zulu - Lost one veteran xbow .
Second went polynesia, london(gw with additional coast city and bombing) and jakarta
Plus i made third army for siam.

Figting impis was a drag as Shaka went crazy with spaming them.

May consider another full honor playthrough with fast archer rush. I fell like this map could be finnished sub t180
