VB2-Mayan Melee

A little thing you can do to help weaken the attackers that come back in is to send a stack of 1 inf and x cal onto a mountain or hill and fortify there the cal with its ZOC will be able to knock out hit points from the bys units that come in. looks like one NNW of Andripole and one where the current inf is will work. Just though i could help the team a little.

 

[Oddible]

Definitely true, problem is that our offense is so aggressive that its eating up units almost as fast as we're producing them! Actually I started at the end of my turns to feel like I was getting ahead in terms of wartime production - the stack of Cavs in Nicaea is pretty healthy - enough so that I switched a couple cities to Destroyers to start to gains some control over the seas. Were some fun turns for sure - then next few are going to be a blast sinking all that wood.

 

[Sir Bugsy]

I am just starting to play. Expect dispatches by Sunday night Pacific Time.

 

[Sir Bugsy]

Pre-flight – 1720 AD – Rush three temples in our new Byzantine cities.

Kill a Sumerian rifle outside Feldkirch. Sink the Sumerian galleon.

Change Chichen to the CIA.

Do about an hours worth of MMing.

Get a peace treaty with Sumeria We can get a peace treaty with the Incas too, but I hold off. We can pull the Hittites back into our war for furs.

IBT – We kill a cav and sink a frigate. Hittites and Portugal sign a MA against the Inca.
Hittities sign in the Sumerians against the Inca

1. 1725 AD – Bombard down to red the two defenders in Adana and capture it. Three resisters.
Set up for an assault on the Byzantine capitol.

2. 1730 – Hold off on the Byz capital of Smyrna

IBT – CIA is built in Chichen

3. 1735 AD – Lose two cavs and most of the units are redlined, but Smyrna falls. We now have Cop’s

We might be sneak attacked next turn by the Hittites, so I buy them into a MA against the Byzantines for furs.

IBT – The Incas drop off a cav, The Sumerians declare war on the Hittitites. The Byzantines drop off two cavs. The Hittites raze an Incan city. Portugal declares war on the Sumerians.

4. 1740 AD – The invasion is repulsed.

Plant a spy in the Byzantine capitol. They have 2 cavs, 26 inf, 17 frigates, 12 galleons, 4 clads, and a privateer

Trying to plant a spy on the Incans fails.

Hurry a temple in Adana.

IBT – The Portuguese declare war on the Byzantines.

5. 1745 AD – Bombard and capture Chalcedon. Only 7 resisters this time.
IBT – Incas and Portuguese sign a peace treaty.

6. 1750 AD – Bombard Naissus’ three defenders to red, then kill them.

The Byzantine navy is reduce by several vessels.

7. 1752 AD – Hurry a temple in Naissus. Start the march towards Cuzco, the new Byzantine capitol.

IBT - Lose a cav to an Inca cav. Kill two Byz cavs.

8. 1754 AD – Hurry a temple in Smyrna.

IBT – Chalcedon flips.

9. 1756 AD – Recapture Chalcedon. Byzantines are down to four cities.

10. 1758 AD – A single redlined conscript infantryman holds Cuzco.

After Action: I would finish off the Byzantines on the mainland and leave their last city to the AI. Then I would go after the Incas. If our government collapses, go for Communism. Rush temples in our new cities for expansion. We have the population for domination, we’re at 53% land area.

Roster Check:

Ville - On Deck
Oddible
Bugs - Twisting by the pool
Andvruss - UP - gets to take out the Byzantines and the Incas

We're looking for a fifth player if any lurker is interested.

 

[Ville]

Solid work Bugsy

 

[Sir Bugsy]

Thanks Ville, I think we could reach domination in 40-60 turns. The byzantines are almost gone from the other continent. The Incas will follow quickly. They will be reduced to living on islands. We build up a good sized invasion force. Then when our deals are up with the Hittities, we use Hittite land to complete our 67%.

 

[andvruss]

Got it. Will the WW go down if we sign peace wil all nations, or does it have to be for 20 turns to be full?

 

[Sir Bugsy]

Actually, I think the WW will go down when we have peace with the Byzantines. I wouldn't worry about WW. If the government collapses, we can go to Communism...a much improved government in .

 

[andvruss]

Will try to play/post tomorrow after lab exam and music theory exam.

 

[Oddible]

How many musicians are playing this SG? Bugsy's got a guitar as his avatar and andvruss is taking music theory! Oddible is of course a bit twiddler with a penchant for web art (see http://www.oddible.com/projects/midifyweb/ for a quirky example).

Cheers all!

 

[Sir Bugsy]

I wonder if Andvruss has a Bach's pre-build going for when he completes his Music Theory class.

 

[andvruss]

Sigh, I am working on a project early weekend. Could I switch places with the next player? (Very Sorry)?

 

[Sir Bugsy]

Roster Check:

Ville - UP - gets to take out the Byzantines and the Incas
