My start!

Worker is there as he scouted before we settled.

Will chop both forests.

1 for barracks before I research pottery

1 for granary.

OK played 12 turns already after a nice 10 turn session on MSN to get started

Barracks completed. Time to start my miltary.

Just realised you can't tell that I founded on Ivory. This has helped me survive on size 2.

Size three in 3 turns, first warrior builds at the same time [

]

Also pottery comes in then. I was tempted to set up a granary prebuild to be implemented once pottery's in, also next forest chop is ordered for then too.

Should I build military now or not?

Also in other news, Barbu1997 asked if there were any restriction on buying workers from the AI. I swore quietly and said that it was fine.

He's met someone

PS. Pictures up soon, just gotta roll something first.

How do you have growth in 11?

3 turns of +3fpt, just changed to +1fpt to look at the possibility of getting the warrior quicker.

Changed it back though.

Anyways, welcome to the thread!

Was it a table for one?

Oh, you're "expectin some friends"...

ok...

Maybe you'd like to wait at the bar?

So anyways. Turn 13.

Worker heads for 2nd game tile to chop for me granary and spots incense in the NW.

Coupled with the Cow and Coast appearing to the east, 2 sites offer themselves immediately for consideration.

Scores are as expected, apparently Barbu_1997 didn't settling on the spot!

I can confirm that the last civ is the "Hazardous Searobbers" [

So ok we made it to turn 43.

Not much to report.

Met the Babs a while back. They are now CB, Warrior Code and Iron Working up on me. But I have a secret weapon! I get Masonry in 4 turns

Odd research for me in this game, having to research pottery was NOT fun. But I did it and got The Wheel for good measure. A few more cities trade for WC from the Babs and then its horsemen out the ass.

Now for some pics.

Warning these may be big, my default res for playing C3C is 1400 x 1050

Fun fun fun.

Settler factory running well, apart from the horrific 40% tax I had to go to at one point. 2 more sites on the inner core to settle, 1 for major food in the north and one for horse and spices in the south.

That's gotta hurt

It's quite a food rich map. You should send the map maker some flowers.

Nice going, love the graphics.

Melifluous · 19-04-2005, 14:56

Was having a nice day today until Barbu woke up in the frozen waste in Canada, opened his save, got his next tech and SGL'ed.

He came online briefly and we talked.

He just rushed the Pyramids in 1990BC

I'm gonna get him though.

@Paali - It will hurt

@PP - Plenty of food, from that pic above the warriors moved 1 square more and revealed another Wheat each! Also about the graphics, I can take that one of two ways. I'll answer both. 1400 x 1050 on my laptop is rather cool, work bought it for me

. The graphic set I use for C3C is the only thing I think I have in common with ERIKK, a love of the watercolour terrain.
