Regarding the current culture: I don't know if this says anything:

Isn't it 100,000 (and double that of next Civ) or 20,000 in a city to win by cultural?

Aggie · 02-08-2003, 00:35

@BW: yes, but we are just at 560 AD...

Black_Waltz · 02-08-2003, 01:33

Bleh. That would make sense. Sorry. Its late here.

Turn 184 (680 AD):

32 turns to go before war probably starts. And I'm in the Industrial age

. Also: I got Nationalism

. This means: riflemen and drafting as extra defense against Wildfire. I have steam in 5, so it's not totally crazy that I might even have infantry when war can start. WF lacks Banking, Magnetism and Theory of Gravity!

This is the world map. My second core around Zimbabwe still has to be developed:

7.32KB

Turn 189:

I discover steam, Industrialization is next (in 5). I HAVE NO COAL

.

But luckily there's a source in no-mans-land, which I can settle in 3 turns. Wildfire is also settling in that area, close to me. But he takes a risk, since my culture is at least twice as high as his!

An empire that size and still no coal ? You're seriously jinxed Aggie

Who made that map ?

Turn 194 (780 AD):

- I discover Industrialization and started Medicine (in 4 at 50% science

).
- I have the coal hooked up
- I finished Copernicus and switched ToG to Universal Suffrage (ToE pre-build)

I will have Scientific Method in 13 or 14 turns (910/ 920 AD) and probably choose Replaceable Parts and Atomic Theory as free techs. Before 1000 AD I will probably be 5 or 6 techs ahead of Wildfire! He still didn't reach the IA.

I'm seriously thinking about offering Wildfire two techs (Nationalism/Steam Power and Industrialization) in return for a non-agression pact (we can be at war, but no fighting allowed) until 1500 AD. War is not in my interest until I'm fully railed and I have tanks. I want to win this by Culture or Space Race without a single fight from now on. But I doubt that Wildfire agrees with a non agression pact.
