I have a plan that will be known as Operation Abbath and soon after that I will launch Operation Horgh
Operation Abbath: I will bring my navy to other side and transport full of marines will capture one city in the other side. Operation Horgh: I will also bring over 10 transports full of cavalry, infantry and artillery (and possibly tanks) . Unload them to the city and steamroll with help of Gogf's railroads |

Operation Abbath and Operation Horgh succeeded, only 1 of Gogf's inner cities was saved!
No pics before I get PSP back... |

Yeah. Gogf, please do
IMO, things sounded rather even for a long time, so a little summary of what you did right/wrong would be alright too - so as to compare your strategy with Ville's

However, I can say what strategies I think worked and what I did wrong. - Conquer the continent too late. Of course, GA had said that the game was on Emperor, or possibly Monarch. It turned out to be Regent, which nobody noticed for a while. - TOE prebuild. I forgot about palaces, so I assumed Ville had no prebuild. - Defense. I assumed that by heavily guarding my coastal cities I could stave off any marine attack and force him to land. I could then bring in other unit by rail and pound him with arty. He brough a ton of marines though [and might have bombarded the city], and so he took a coastal city and then just ran amok along my rail network by attacking undefended cities with cavalry. - Early defense. He did take my capital early on. That certainly wasn't helpful. - No clear path to victory. My only strategy was to attack Ville military after building Hoover, or potentially go for space race. After I lost TOE/Hoover, the only chance I had was to out-tech him (which was unlikely because he got two free techs), or to try to go for a culture win. I'd say that's about it. |
