won my first deity game

[Vorpal+5]

Congrats! I'm playing deity now, but I started with the +1 diff level every 50 turns, and not right from the start, so this is quite an achievement you did...

About reload, I play a kind of 'ironman' mode, but softened I allow me 3 reloads +1 every 100 turns, so it is up to me to decide when I lose a particular fight if I use up one of my reload (last time it was my 50 xp wizard which lost a 99.1% combat...).

it only took you 6 - 9 hours to play 800 turns?

Some games take me 10 minutes per turn.

well its a standard size map and remember the first 200-250 turns go pretty quick. usually on capturing a new city that's not likely to be taken back I'll Queue like 15-20 buildings so i don't have to worry about them for a long while if ever again. i hate how everything gets demolished when a new regime stomps into town.

"Well guys we may as well go ahead and burn the granary, smokehouse, monument, archery range and theatre... Oh and guys, go ahead and torch that fine looking library while were at it.... Oh what's that sir? Ok, commence with the rebuilding of the the granary!"

uh, 2-3 days at about 2-3 hours a day. around 800 turns. prolly coulda won quicker, but i like dominating every aspect of the game i.e. having yvain ridiculously powered up with nature nodes, leaving no one alive who's not my closest friend, having one of every node. once you get a big enough lead you can have a little fun terraforming and having insane stacks of doom.

Yeah, it takes me a lot longer to finish a game, also, but the production queue isn't something I use very often. I'll have to remember to use it, more.

I know what you mean. there used to be a gameoption "no building razed on city capture" , but patch 3.19 seems to have got rid of that
