And so it began. For years rumours have spilled over our world. A ruthless race called the Spannish misused the male cows in arena's filled with the dumbest scum on earth. Our Holy Cows will soon come to the rescue! soon!
On turn 165 we discovered Navigation and two turns later we saw a light blue border. We did not make contact yet as we did not want Killer to know we had the ability to cross ocean. The fact that it is sort of a one-on-one also means I will have no clue as to where is core is located. Operation "Holy Cow" therefore has no particular target but an overall mission: "Search and destroy any Spannish cities you may find!" 18.17KB Above can be seen the invasionfleet 3 trurns away from landing. The fleet contains 17 Elephants and one Explorer. After Making contact with Killer I notice Killer lacks Monotheism! On MSN I tell him we have met and after a nice discussion about me having Navigation I also inform him of the Elephants.[] 31.48KB Needless to say that Killer capitulated! In the end my lands were better, the pet friendlier and the Wonders more wonderful I thank him for a great game and a fast game (171 turns in say 4 weeks), we had a lot of laughs and already agreed on a rematch!

good one KR! Killer just can't stand elephants, although in our game it didn't even come to those Dumbo's

@killer: I'm to blame for the map Killer. I know your start position was slightly worse than Kingreno's but your island was slightly bigger. I had not expected that your pet would outexpand you on monarch level so I thought you would quickly build a worker army. I think germany started around flood plains with FL+wheat near, so I accounted that would become worker fac. Guess things worked out a bit different.
So if you guys have a rematch I would like a 2nd chance to build a map for you. Then we can judge my learning curve too!
