As Killer keeps on attacking the Koreans, Babylonians and Indians the WM above is quite empty on the right half and looks a bit like this:

Notice the hut in Spanish territory! [eek]

Not a big deal with the hut. That just means you havent gotten a world map in awhile.

LOL
Well, thanks to your playstyle it will be a piece of cake setting up all AI's against you! [evil] You have violated enough peace deals by now.. [satan]
Gotton your leader yet?
Lt. Killer M
02-05-2003, 15:07
I haven't violated a single one :D

Babylon has serious problems now. Down to two cities.
Carthago cleared the map from all Germans...
Only one left! ;)

Nope, please explain!

ah, OK, someone doesn't want to talk, you take a stick, sharpen one end and tell him you will stick it into his eyes if he doesn't talk.
He will not talk.
Now, stick the stick into his eye.
Ask him to talk again
This time, he will talk :)

It has started: a stack of Knights with an army is close to Munich.
Despite all my warmongering it caost me between 200 adn 380 Gold per AI to buy alliances vs Erik!
Remember the updates and pics for the fighting!
Lt. Killer M
25-05-2003, 02:25
either Erik was *very* unlucky about Persian troops next tu Munich, but as I see none I do not believe that.

I ratehr think he arrived at a very smart strategic decision and abandoned Munich.
reasons:
- he cannot defend it. No way! He had a Knight in it last turn - that is a loss for sure.
- it will never flip to him and he loses no culture or usable production
- I can use it as a base to heal troops - it is far enough from his other cities that he has no chance of attacking the town in the near future so I could rush barracks and then Pikes.
Erik - my hat is off to you!
My borders are very long to protect. This tactic sucks btw. as the other human player cannot be everywhere at the same time.
In my game against Aggie I was far away so he had time to get peace in time. This time all is diferent....
First attack:
Henry zegt:
Knight vs Knight fights in Leipzig: you lose (3HP left, you lose (2 HP left) you win, you lose (1 left + promo), you lose (no damage), retreat from Num Merc, Num Merc does 1 HP damage, no damage.....
ERIKK zegt:
bah
Henry zegt:
retreat Num Merc no damage
Henry zegt:
Army kills two Num Merc for 2 HP damage and promotes. Best defender is now a 3 HP Knight - adn I am out of attackers for the turn.
ERIKK zegt:
you had good dices
Henry zegt:
OK dices..... ba bit over average....
Henry zegt:
sent
Henry zegt:
can you post the results?
Lt. Killer M
26-05-2003, 21:21
thtis was vefore the attack - after looks the same jsut 1 Knight less and a REGULAR Knight as defender.......

Indeed it's pretty smart of Killer to attack you jsut after you wiped the Germans, you should take the offensive to his territory in retaliation [evil]
Lt. Killer M
27-05-2003, 01:25
Skyfish: my reasoning was not only the small cultural radii of the Germna towns, but rather that I had no target for my troops that I could sensibly use (all too far away), that Erik would perhaps expect me to beeline for Mil Trad and my UU and that I woul perhaüs be able to make good use of my leader (with an army) by denying Eirk a few towns. Why let the war come to me if I cna cary it to the enemy?
I was *very* siurprosed by the strong defences in Leipzig!
Update!
Killer announched he has made a strategical retreat (to get his units healed?). Carthaginian generals are debating whether to go for a counterattack or to take on the Persian invaders first...
All in all we have some time now to regroup and heal from the damage Killer has made...
Congrats Erikk on resisting that SoD from Killer [eek]
Wow
Lt. Killer M
27-05-2003, 11:13
I guess I already encountered the main force of Eriks troops - at least I went from 'average' to 'strong' ;)
So you gonna strike him again :)
You can answer in the Spoiler thread :D
Lt. Killer M
02-06-2003, 09:54
kill 4 Knights, 2 retreats from NuMerc, 3 reg Knights killed, lose 1 Knights vs. 3HP elite Knight, kill Med Inf.
Did I do bad again? [mad]
Lt. Killer M
02-06-2003, 12:08
not really bad - but I was lukcy indeed - the army lost 8 HP in a row, if I had used the Knights first I would maybe have lost 5 or so....
That is for the 2nd time now. If there will be a 3rd time things will be fucked up!
Goddamnid!!!
Lt. Killer M
02-06-2003, 14:17
you should see my combat results from the Jack Merchant game......
Lt. Killer M
02-06-2003, 23:30
Erik: I will NOT play until I get a combat report from you!
quote:Originally posted by Lt. Killer M
Erik: I will NOT play until I get a combat report from you!
Relax man!!!!
I lost 1 knight, 2 med inf's and 2 or 3 mercs. 4 or 5 med inf's and 2 knights and a couple of mercs defeated your army and 5 knights. You have 4 knights left, as you can see.
Btw Killer, I was balancing on a very thin line past 7 turns.
Now, I guess I will be able to breathe again. Enemy troops were
very close, at the gates of my nothern cities. I was able to fend
off the Persian attacks but the damn Spanish came with a SoD...
Moving your troops inside the range of three cities made it
possible for me to strike at your forces, decimating them. I
guess I will be able to chase and hunt down your remaining 1 hp
knights the next turns.
Now you have to deal with the AI's. Good luck!

so what is your total loss? 1 Knight? + 2 for the army? or 1 in all?
I killed the 6hp army with a vet knight.
I lost a total of 5 or 6 units to your 5 other knights.
Lt. Killer M
03-06-2003, 10:09
OK, thanx
Lt. Killer M
03-06-2003, 10:42
Dealing with the AIs? well, I kill an Indian settler :D
also, the Spanish were a bit rash in expanding towards me....... They will pay for their treason very soon....... Spears are no match for the Russian Knights!
hehe
Not sure if you would be ready for the turnaround. My hopes are on troops on their way to me in your territory!
Lt. Killer M
03-06-2003, 11:47
Erik: nope, they all took the northern route as the Ais have ROPs amongst themselves, but not with me.....
Also, I have a few Knights held back for just this case: Already attacking with them :D
Turn 175:
The remaining Russian troops were killed on the top
of mount Doom! A great leader stood up in that battle!

We hear mixed reports from the war in the north.
Russian and Indian troops are clashing and both
suffer heavy losses...
Lt. Killer M
03-06-2003, 21:44
I can hardly believe haw an attack = 4 unit can so easily kill a fortified D=3 unit on a mountaintop!
5 units: 2 4/4 and 3 2/4 knights.
when attack with my 4/4 med inf's and 4/4 knights your
3 2/4 knights retreated. After that they could be
killed off. I lost my units on your 2 4/4 knight.
They were a sacrefice...
Latest news from the front:
- nothern front (killer vs the AI's) might be collapsing!
- killer had some dramatic bad RNG turns, spoiling his mood
- the ai took a city from killer and did the
capture-and-rush-a-unit-in-the-same-turn cheat
- his expensive rushed units died, wasting valuable money (tell me about it!)
- all quiet nowadays on the Carthaginian front, killers units are dead (*phew*)
killer resent your last save please. Your mail had no attachment!
In honour of the heroic defense against the mighty
Russian invasion force, emperor ERIKK decided that
the people of Liepzig were to be rewarded by
living in the grand and glorious capital of the
new world!

sorry for the empty email...
news: the Spanish are a weird brand of warrior. It seems they can attack with the best of us, but on defence......... Their Horsemen fail to defend Babylon against my 2 HP Knight and veteran Pikeman (OK, OK, given the Horse was wounded I had a better than 50% chance, but I am used to losing these)......
Lt. Killer M
06-06-2003, 10:31
and now Babylon is THE focal point of all AI moves... I will (once I find time) replay the turn and try to get a screenie AFTER the AI moves - which means setting capture to a time and pray it comes between the moves and the saving window....

the Persian intruders took a hard beating. Erik and I now agreed on a cease-fire until turn 189 (I send). I may take a bitz of India and Persia, (Ergili), but then no more.
Lt. Killer M
08-06-2003, 21:23
one town each then I must take peace (unless they demand I pay, then I will kill units in the open until i get fair peace, but not towns)
okidoki
but the holy carthaginian - russian war remaines active, allthough on a lower scale these 10 turns
after that no more ai-abuse (MA's)????
Lt. Killer M
09-06-2003, 15:56
hmmmmm, no MAs?
What do you think of that?
Nice city near that Indian cities by the way!
Aren't you afraid it will revolt?
Lt. Killer M
10-06-2003, 05:48
Erik, let's get it straight: it is *extremely* tempting to buy persia in against you right now. So let us talk on MSN....
ok, but I could have done the same (including spain and india)
last turn, right?????
I will be looking for you from time to time on MSN today...
I would like to ask the lurkers to look into my spoiler thread and
advise me on my own personal strategy.

10-06-2003, 12:09
Erik: yes you could have - but we agreed to talk first......
ERIKK says:
yop
ERIKK says:
I am against anymore ma abuse
ERIKK says:
it sucks
ERIKK says:
you had the first strike
Henry says:
hey. well, that means I will come for you if you attac persia for the wonders or you let me take India
Henry says:
yes, I know, it sucks
ERIKK says:
and will have it again if you havent played the game already and sent it to me AND we agree to do it again right now
Henry says:
from now on I will always try to get a no-MA deal at the beginning
Henry says:
well, I had the first strike a when you didn't use it on me - you could have done the smae. Now, theings are different, thus I wouldn't buy ALL the AI.....
ERIKK says:
Well. lets just agree to leave persia alone and fight IN Persia between ourselfs
Henry says:
haha
ERIKK says:
Or: you attack India and I attack you in former Babylonia
Henry says:
I am NOT interested in wasting units in Persia to kill yours if India is a ripe target
Henry says:
if you want to play the protective might for the AIs I will consider that a passive MA...
ERIKK says:
So you set up Persia against me and for taking India with me not around
ERIKK says:
I will take over Persia
Henry says:
and get the nice wonders
ERIKK says:
that is not very good for you IMO
Henry says:
and I will NOT attack you there unless with say ten turns warning
ERIKK says:
no more cease fire
Henry says:
but I demand a ten turn warning from you, too
ERIKK says:
i wont do that anymore, i have my resason for that
Henry says:
OK; no more ceasefire if you want... then the gloves are off
ERIKK says:
we are at war and stay at war
ERIKK says:
the gloves are off
ERIKK says:
You masy set up Persia against
ERIKK says:
me
ERIKK says:
And I will set up Spain against you then
Henry says:
if you want we can agree not to use MAs anymore....
Henry says:
or we could also do that - me and Persia vs you and Sopain
ERIKK says:
What will be that deal?
ERIKK says:
Henry says:
if you want we can agree not to use MAs anymore....
ERIKK says:
so??? what do you offer?
Henry says:
I offer that we both do NOT use MAs and MPPs of ANY kind. Conditional is that India is my 'sphere of influence', Persia may be yours
ERIKK says:
all right: i will meet you in former babylon then!
ERIKK says:
go ahead and attck India
Henry says:
hm, if you say you will attack me..... then I'd say we meet at the walls of your cities
ERIKK says:
sure, be my guest, all you need is a ROP in Persia
Henry says:
we'll see......... Persia is nice to me again
ERIKK says:
fools
Henry says:
can you psot the NO MA thing in the thread please?
Henry says:
hehe
ERIKK says:
sure i will post this conversation. I willplat tonight, will you be around?
Henry says:
their strength and small town radii was one reason I wanted an allout war keep them from growing
Henry says:
ah, sorry, no. I need a good nights slepp and have K8 to do, 1 turn is 1 h or so atm
ERIKK says:
hmm
ERIKK says:
ok, if you change your mind, i will be around at 20:00
Henry says:
