ProPain vs anarres - SPOILER

anarres · 03-04-2003, 21:45

Game Settings

- Deity
- Archipelago
- Random everything else (including civ's)

I end up being Egypt, ProPain is France.

Here is my start:

anarres · 03-04-2003, 22:55

Turn 7

I have produced 1 warrior and sent him north.

Here is my map:

I have cleared the forest with game and started a granary pre-build. I only managed to get 1 warrior out, I forgot that I was industrious and now it would waste too many shields to stay on warriors. At least this way I get a very early granary and start pumping them out sooner.

Being industroius really helped working the tile, I will expand in turn 9 instead of 11

anarres · 03-04-2003, 23:30

Turn 11

Meet the Persians. I can see another civ to the SE (from border expansion [

]). The lone warrior is diverted to the south.

- The Persians as neighbours... That is not very good news.
- Lands seem OK
- City will grow to size 4 (or higher?) building that granary. With no guards inside it means trouble or are you gonna set the lux very high?
- How are you planning to get your GA btw? Or will you fight a despotism war this time (with the chariot)?

anarres · 04-04-2003, 11:24

The civ border to the SE is just 5 tiles from my capital! I have changed production to a settler, I am size 3 already (I got the cow now too). I will build war chariots and take the civ out quick, but I need to find horses to do that, and for that I also need the wheel. I am hoping I can trade with the new civ to get the wheel, we will see very soon...

anarres · 04-04-2003, 21:41

I just met the Zulu!

Shit, Persia and Zulu, are there 2 worse neighbours to have???

Sell Masonry to the Zulu for Pottery, Warrior Code, Bronze Wroking and 8 gold.

anarres · 04-04-2003, 22:13

Turn 20

Build Memphis, 2 cities!

I am torn between building a third city before attackig the Zulu or not, but I think I will since I won't get many units going with 2 cities. I am currently about 130 turns from the wheel and War Chariots.

ERIKK · 04-04-2003, 22:28

130 turns? 40 turns is slowest, right?

anarres · 04-04-2003, 22:56

Whoops. It was acually about 20 at the time, dunno what i was thinking [

]

anarres · 05-04-2003, 02:13

Here is the map at turn 38:

44.58KB

Unfortunately I have left Heliopolis undefended in the NW, and a Persian Spear is approaching.

They are currently annoyed, I hope they fuckoff and leave me alone...
