Seems like my mail provider is the devil.
 I re-d/l'ed the saves from the forwarded message. NOW they seem to have correct file size at least. After renaming, I can load a... 900AD Civ1-save! |

(Fucking chaos yesterday. Blame it on cold turkey.)
IT: Heliopolis - Chariot attacks Battleship, we win. 920AD: Beamopolis musket->settler rush a musket in Stapelburg Battleship wins vs Egyptian settler near Heliopolis load musket from Krente on Trans, heads towards Heliopolis IT: famine strikes Krente (1pop lost) bunch of Egyptian units show up near Heliopolis 940AD: Zwie aqueduct->caravan Stapelburg musket->temple refining in, set to explosives disorder in Jever, Elvis hired BB kills 2 units 960AD: Koelsch City settler->temple Krente musket->granary BB kills cat, musket arrives at Heliopolis IT: Mongols discover engineering, Egypt banking 980AD: MT caravan->granary Ommen caravan->granary Helio temple->cathedral (1 Elvis fired) 1 Krente musket rehomes to Helio BB kills horse 1000AD: Corrado City musket->temple BB kills cat exploring Sail kills 2 Zulu triremes (5 units lost in total  )IT: WTF? out of nowhere appearing French sail attacks Krente, sinks 1010AD: Moscow disorder, Elvis hired Zwie caravan->granary disorder in ExPort, temple rushed IT: Mongol forces appear near Helio 1020AD: ExPort Temple->market BB kills Mongols Antarctica founded on "Russian" Island popped a hut, got 50g IT: Zulus wanna talk... no way. BB defeats Egyptian chariot, 2 more units show up near Helio 1030AD: MT granary->caravan Ommen granary->university Shit, shit, shit. BB sinks in the process of attacking Egyptian horse/legion stack near Helio...[rolleye] I'd start a "The AI cheats" thread in GD on CFC if this was civ3...  Anyways, Elvis in Spamyra hired, load Spamyra's cat onto trans; load Moscow cat and diplo as well. Switch prod in Helio from cathedral to cannon (ready next turn). We have 2 muskets in Helios, which *hopefully* defend vs 1 legion and 1 horse. Trans heads towards Helios IT: legion/horse defeated near Helios, Mongols show up with cat, chariot and legion(?) 1040AD: Krente granary->BB (in 14!turns atm due to the earlier famine) Helio cannon->cathedral IT: Egypt cat appears near Helio 1050AD: Zwie granary->bank explosives discovered->combustion (automobile in reach! conscription (rifles) is also on the list) Disorder in Jever. Those freaks are just too fertile and grow too fast. Switch from lib to cath and rush it (2 Elvisses to be fired next turn). Swith from lib to market in Fort East and rush it for 24g. Note: Fort East has railroads on city center square and a nearly completed rr connection towards east (Stapelburg, then Zulu's Intobe), as seen in the pic below. (Stapelburg city center square has no rails, so 1 tile N of Stapel needs rails on it). Cannons from Intombe could use it soon: move out and attack Zulu militia (and whatever will show up there in future) in same turn w/o movement penalty; if Fort East riots, move cannon back into town next turn and so on. Meanwhile, the settler could continue to rr towards Intombe with the musket as escort. Maybe FE does not even riot due to market plus lux tax. And Alp is going to complete WS in 4 turns...  Flens will build a BB next turn, which could launch an assault at Mogol/Egypt coast together with the two cats in the transport. However, there's no defender on it (for the possible purpose of rushing defenders: temporary tax increasement to 80% *would* net in about 150gpt atm)  49.35KB Save sent to Beam. Killer: I assume you will post here in case you want to re-join. |

Yeah, a battleship is a nice toy!
Looking at the military advisor screen, it could have killed more units, though...  38.24KB I forgot to mention that our sail was lost when I tried to attack a stack of settler/cat/horse on Zulu coast around turn 1020AD. Also: in the other pic, the musket is placed on a rr'ed mountain tile. Zulu militia is on grassland IIRC. |

1050AD (1):
Canon in Helopolis beats Egyptian cat. Canon from Fort East beats Zulu militia. Caravan helps with WS in Alpi, due in 1 turn! Transport with Cats moves 2 Helopolis. IT: Egyptian Char. beats Musket in Heliopolis. Woman's Suffrage in Alpi  1060AD, 1070AD, 1080AD Some scrimmages, French clad attacks Krente and sinks. Working on a road to Intombe. Battleship goes exploring. 1090AD (5): Our Spy finds the Egyptian city of Oryx. IT: Loose our spy, to be expected. 1100AD (6): ZZZ IT: Egyptians wanna talk, make a peace deal. They are backward and have 2 cities afaik. Time to explore their lands before Tanks arrive 1110AD (7): Damn, forgot the ZoC rule, need a spy to investigate Egyptian land. Sell all Barracks, not sure if the are obsolete with Combustion or Automobile. 1120AD (8):  25.27KB Researching Automobile! Next player is going the have fun 7 turns from now Railroad to Intombe completed. 2 canons kill 2 Phlanxes, city is empty at size. 1130AD (9): Spammies capture Intombe and burn it to the ground! Two Mongol cavs near Heliopolis bite the dust. IT: Mao asks for an audience and demands 300 tribute. Fuck off Mao, we are not impressed by that Cav. He declares war 1140AD (10): Kuiperdam build N of former Intombe. The Battleship NW of Corradocity sinks a sail and is adjacent to Chinese territory. Next turn 2 Diplo's are available to whereever they are needed. Egypt is assembling troops near Heliopolis, but we have a peace treaty with them. Even if they sneak and succeed we will roll over Egypt in a couple of turns with Tanks. Sounds like Killer time  15.48KB Download Attachment: [img]icon_paperclip.gif[/img] 1140AD.zip 23.91KB
