Turn 215 (1000 AD):
WAR TIME! Two turns ago I finished ToE and I was 5 techs in front. WF managed to steal Rep Parts one turn later. That is a bit annoying, because now he is able to have infantry as a defense. At the start of the war I am faced with two front. One is the old core: 98.13*KB The other is the newly conquered land: 57.47*KB So I have to have a strong defense in 14 cities or so. Therefore I decided to first attack the new core. I found that WF defended his cities with Sipahi there! Since domination is not possible, I razed the place. I also managed to raze Mugla and Oil Springs in the old core. I killed 15 Sipahi and 6 infantry in total and lost 11 cavs. The world map before the war: 7.24*KB After the first turn: 7.17*KB This allows me to move all infantry to the 8 cities on the eastern front. I have 35 cavalry and 96 infantry left |

Turn 216:
Wildfire tells me that he has a terrible war weariness already! He only managed to kill 3 cavs and left my SoD in his land alone. He wanted peace, but I don't agree with that. But...I am hesitant about what to do now in the first 5 turns. He has infantry and I don't have enough artillery. I may retreat and let the war weariness kill his productivity. Next priority is to pillage his resources and luxuries, produce 40 artillery and a lot of cavalry. Turn 217: Wildfire drafted units, so he has Nationalism. This makes life more difficult. So I decide to go for a new push and aim for his capital. I will also disconnect his rubber. |

You're riding this game. If you can't take his cities, pillage all the roads through his lands. This way he will not have the cash to steal your techs.
