looks like i did more than make him uncomfortable. he has been at war with the Byz for about 5 turns, trying to nail down an iron source. he just told me he only has 1 horse in range to attack my units and all the others need to cross rivers to get back. this little force should be able to do some damage [hammer]

edit: and I'll post more pics when I get home as that one above is pretty crappy

Ah. The killer caught with his pants down [lol]

You ought to be able to take out those two cities, AND transport those slaves he has on the road with your galley...

he conceded the game. i'll try to update the pic's tonight as I didn't want to try to replay the last turn for fear that i'd reveal something I shouldn't see.

funny, this was only supposed to be a distraction group, to screw up his ability to research or invest in buildings. instead, it won the game.

congrats, you really ran away from me in research and growth. I must admit I simply couldn't get my capital to be an effective settler pump [blush]

Good Job Graham! I've studied your techniques and I'm going to try to give Killer a run for his Money! I enjoyed the spoiler

good luck on that, mine was just rather lucky timing :)

no, it wasn't: you handled your start far better and thus had the capability to build up a strike force while at the same time running away from me in all other regards. That forced me to ignore one aspect, which had to be either military or research - I chose military and that killed me.
