Hey opponents!

This evening I will be around till 23:00 CET. I have to work tomorrow (daytime)but have no appointments the rest of the weekend.

I think we will be able to play lots of turns

At turn 155 Killer says: 'Hey, you're at war with Greece'!
When I open my save I see that they ROP-raped me and took a city

.

What to do now? I wasn't prepared! I decide to wait one turn. Korea can be bought into the war with invention. But when I do that, killer will get it as well (TGL). Within one turn I will get the next tech to Mil Trad (gunpowder). Then Killer will be still one tech behind me. Great idea, so it seems...

Turn 156: Killer: 'The Greeks bought Russia in a MPP vs you'

. The Russians have one city left, who cares. 'Wow, they have a lot of money. No they have Korea on their side too'.

Turn 160:
I lost three cities vs the Greeks and Koreans. I'm building up my army like crazy. The Chinese are my allies now vs both Korea and Greece. A good thing: Killer's TGL has expired, so every tech I sell won't give him that tech for free.

Turn 162:
I got Ankara back, but still I must re-capture my only saltpeter city.

PS. The Koreans were my trading partner and I lost a lot of gpt when they declared war. One very positive thing: I will surely win the UN vote if it stays like this...

That sucks, losing cities means losing lots of improvements and untis...

It's true, but these were my most corrupt cities. with a lot of potential though...

Those who do not support me, are against me! (This is a joke Killer

):

Killer and I made a deal: I give him Metallurgy for Chivalry and Navigation (was it navigation?, oh well...). This allows me to produce knights!! With that (the first will be ready in turn 170) I will surely re-capture my two lost cities. And I won't stop there. Within 15 turns I will be able to produce Sipahi

Aggie · 21-04-2003, 20:49

Turn 183:
Within one turn I'll have Sipahi. Then I won't have to negotiate with this guy anymore:

46.46*KB

I captured the city the same turn

Aggie · 21-04-2003, 21:05

Damn, I used Korean worker to hook up the saltpeter. One more turn before Sipahi

Aggie · 25-04-2003, 12:36

Turn 186: Maybe a mistake, but I sell Military Tradition to Killer for Banking and Navigation.

Aggie · 25-04-2003, 13:30

Turn 188:

55.31KB

50.44KB

This is the current powergraph. Naturally Killer is far ahead, but I had to recover from an AI sneak attack which lost me three cities.

59.48KB
