CFC MTDG warmup **Spoiler**
Turn juan
Well with the CDZ team participating in the MTDG over at the CFC i along with BCLG joined in the the pitboss warm up game to fly the flag for team CDZ. After logging in i got a strange feeling of deja vu, its like i've been here before in a previous game I hope simon had a bit more luck, its not like he could have less. Anyway having had previous experience i've learned a couple of things; 1. No need for defence, no could possibly be that stupid to want my land, and if they are they are welcome to it 2. No point worring about infrastructure, i could easily keep pace early but then everyone just takes off into the distance So with that in mind my plan is to first reasearch fishing, get some food into tummies, prey to god there are horses in the city radius, and while i'm hopefully building lots of chariots get BW so i can whip away merrily. Then it a matter of finding my first neighbour/victim with my recon/invasion group.

The capital is actually looking quite good. There is awful lot of food, a luxury, and some hammers to chop and to mine. If only you can find a neighbor which can be conquered and conquer him rapidly...

Seriously, I saw some of the other starting positions. There's nothing you can do with this but waste your time. Alternately, go south.

Do the honorable thing: put a settler on a boat and settle on a 1 tile island. Best civ3 strategy that won't work in civ4 EVER.
