PBEM vs Matrix - Spoiler

NHJ · 14-04-2009, 21:31

Well, my own subforum to rule with a semi-iron semi-fist, how nice.

Anyway, in this thread I'll try to give an overview of how things are going on the winning side of the PBEM game I've started with Matrix and a bunch of AIs. There's not much going on there so far, since we're still in the deep 3000BC's. Still, this one screenshot shows my starting area of the game:

Afterwards, Stalin was found lurking in the jungles some eight squares south of where my Warrior is in this screenshot, and Matrix was found to the east.

By now, Rillanon has produced a Warrior, and is now working on a Worker to, well, work. After that, a work boat for more food. With the huge amounts of food in the city area, I can probably grow the city pretty large, maybe put some specialists in there.

Also, Matrix declared war on me to be able to check out my land. I'll take some more screenshots later when I get the next save from him.

Overview of The World As I Know It[TM]. Stalin & Matrix' territory visible. My Warrior is down in the lower right corner, fighting lions.

You do know Rilannon is supposed to be an island capital right? Where are you going to place Krondor then? On the x I presume, to create a chokepoint?

You seem to be a bit low on expansion space, so I would suggest an agressive approach to the problem named "Stalin".

I see Matrix has followed his usual strategy (i.e. Christianity)... So predictable...

Yes, well, initially I was under the impression that maybe I started on a small island, and the first native village contained a map of the surrounding area, showing a big part of an island across the water from my capital, so it seemed appropriate at the time. Oh well

Yeah, the X marks where I want to build a city. It's a decent spot, some resources and a nice chokepoint.

I think I'll try to do an early rush on Stalin, depending on how fast I get bronze hooked up.

Will you return the favour and have a look at matrix's patch of dirt?

I'm not sure. I'll probably try
