Hi everyone
I play and win - mostly - on emperor. But I feel that certain things need to be optimal for this to happen, so I often restart. My game needs polishing.
And I'm hoping you can help me. So I'm posting a screenshot and uploading a save for my recent game - as Catherine the hawtness of Russia.
I started in a wonderful location with floodplains E, SE and S. Settled in place and began with Agri, AH (actually hut popped!), the wheel and BW. Found two! copper in great locations nearby - settled both these places and then chopped/whipped an army of promoted axes which took care of pacal - except his last city - holy judaism. The whole continent is almost jewish. Imagine the luck. I finished of pacal a while later and now I'm recovering from the war.
I have great cities, and I run scientists in most, but my empire is quite overstreched. I just sold drama to HC for 380g or so - needed the cash. And I'll have my hands on MC in 4 turns.
And what do I do next? Research toward lib? Or do I wage another war? I have a decent force of axes with great promotions for city attack - with some cats and swords I could take out one more civ. But at the cost of running the slider at 10% for another hump of turns.
The save is in BUG 3.6 and BAT 2.0 - I hope this doesn't affect anything. Just got 'em yesterday. Blue marble is so pretty!
The screenshot is an appetizer.
