So mister stapled has a bit of a tech lead on ya?

By the look of the cows grazing in the south, I think the "evil bastard" really likes you
I suppose you can beat the greek stack, no?

Other noteworthy stuff: you have iron damned close, and LOTS of luxes. I am surprised you arent a hugeass powerhouse allready. How is stapel doing compared to you?

From what I've seen of stapel's territory, he has exactly the same land as I do. My guess is that killer inverted and copy pasted it.
I'm confident that my gallic swordsmen can take out the greeks easily. This would trigger my GA, in despotism, unfortunately. The mountains can form a bit of a problem though. I think I'll have to claim them first.

Turn 83: killed three greek archers. Now in GA. A phalanx and a bowman also coming my way, let's see what they can do v.s. three fortified gallic swordsman on a mountain. My guess: they move into the desert next to it...

Stapel got the great lib.

good to see this one still going! It was a real bother to make the map - copy&paste doesn't work! So each tile you see 'the same' in stapels land was HAND-selected to be there.....

Turn 109: well, I have this pretty army and I have nothing to do. I think about razing that Carthaginian city northwest of Mooh that's keeping me from completing my second ring. If I raze some of their cities, perhaps I can extort them the republic.

Turn 131:

I have a little problem.



As you might or might not see in this crappy picture is the two annoying armies. I have a total of 19 celtic sword and 25 spear (only good v.s. tanks, I hear), so technically I'm screwed. Obviously I don't want to give up that easily, so I'd like some suggestions to go down with a bang.

Suggestions other than "settle on a one-tile island" please.

P.S. Fix that fcking upload!

hmm, perhaps a stratigic retreat to those mountains W of Rijkburg? Probably gives up a lot of territory, but can't tell without a new map.

Anyways, those armies will attack/defend with a value of 4 = (3 + rounddown(3x3)/6), but that's 23 Legions + 2 Armies. Only thing you can hope for is that he doesn't have a 2nd wave, so if you force him to attack spears on well defended land (hills, mountains, walled cities), and then counter with GS's while he's on shitty land, you may have a chance. Problem is that there's 26hp's of Armies to get thru before you can start killing Legions. My guess is that you'll need about 40 GS's to wipe out that stack, but that's just a gut feel, no calc's. Can you upgrade any warriors? Pull some AI in against him? Is a resource disconnect/reconnect allowed? If so, can you get some money quick for upgrades? (each warrior-> GS upgrade costs 3*30 = 90g)

Unfortunately there's not much AI left. As I saw this coming I built roads on some of the mountains. I knew bas had a leader, but I didn't know he had two. I wasn't that lucky...
