*SPOILER* Sir Eric Vs Aggie

Sir Eric · 13-09-2003, 15:32

This game is in a stage of advanced development. Aggie is on 1 continent and has claimed all of that it except for a couple of ai cities and I have done the same with my continent that I am on.

Aggie Indians
Me Japanese

All that is left is for the big war to happen. I think both sides are busy stockpiling

So what tech are you at?

Sir Eric · 15-09-2003, 09:49

I'm researching metalurgy but I know that Aggie is building Newtons Uni which means that he has ToG. I think that he is about 4 techs ahead if not more.

Sir Eric · 22-09-2003, 14:14

What's Aggie up to?

I've just had a Tireme coast around his southern cities and noticed that he only has spearman and pikemen guarding his cities!
Aggie is in the Industrial age which is about 4 or 5 techs ahead of me and has access to at least 3 saltpeter so I know that he can have a much better army then what I have seen.
What is he up to!!
I dont know whether to make a preemptive attack on his conitnent with my inferior units or to wait it out and wait for him to attack me.
Aggies cont has more hills and forests so he has a small terrain defensive bonus that I dont.
I dont think that I can catch up from here in the tech race so when we go to war I will be at a disadvantage, making me behind the 8 ball technologically.
My only chance is weight of numbers against a far superior army.

Attack early and you may catch him unprepared. If you send all your current forces at him you never know what may happen.

Sir Eric · 23-09-2003, 01:17

This is the plan of attack
Invasion point 1a will land first to draw the attention of the cities Ne and SW of it, then invasion point 1b will land to draw units from the core cities near the capital. Invasion point 2 will land after SoD's have been sighted near invasion point 1b (I'm hoping that these will come from the core cities), I'm hoping that this will mean that Aggie has few units left in those cities. Invasion point 2 will be the size of both invasion points 1a and 1b combined. After invasion point 2 lands then reinforcements will land at Point 1a.
The aim of this is to draw Aggie's units from the main cities and divide them so they cant consolidate.Then attack the core cities to stop further production

Problems with this is vulnerable to sea attacks. Using obselete units compared with Aggie.

Are there still any AI left? Did you have some sort of peace agreement?

Lt. Killer M · 23-09-2003, 10:24

remember he must know that you have many more troops! good luck!

Sir Eric · 23-09-2003, 12:47

yes the agreement was that we dont go to war with each other until the ai is taken care of. I intend to attack the Zulu city in the south and the remaining German cities on my continent and launch ship from that point.

Yes but his strenghts are a better navy, he has magnetism(Galleon, frigate) and poss steam power ( ironclads). Chivalary, though he has war elephants that dont upgrade.
