ERIKK - YNDY I SPOILER

ERIKK · 09-08-2003, 13:35

Turn 19:
Meet the Russians (annoyed) and trade The Wheel and Ceremonial Burial
for Pottery and Bronze Working and 1 gold. It looks like I am on a
remote part in the northwest of the map. I counted 4 cows, 3 game, 2
wheat and some fish within reach so far: not bad! Also their are 4
lux of which 2 are in reach, the other 2 are for the AI I think...

Maps turn 22:

Well, at least you will have a good defensive base...

ERIKK · 10-08-2003, 10:24

The Koreans block the passage west (already for 10 turns now) and
there is Russian territory to the south. They both wont trade with me
so I am fucked at the moment. Dunno why the Koreans block the passage
I do not get the feeling Korea and Russia are at war... The Russians
seem to live in the jungles.

turn 23: lost my 2nd warrior on a barb

turn 25: met Korea (polite), trade pottery for 43 gold
turn 26: research mysticism back cant get masony form russia or alphabet from korea
from them, so I settle for warrior code and 22 gold... (which they both had)
turn 35: lost my #???? warrior to barbs

turn 45: suddenly I have two more contacts. I manage to buy techs and sell contacts
with the Russians and end with more money, marsony, alphabet, writing and horseback
riding

I am Lucky I got those contacts because the Koreans are still blocking
the passage! Bought embassy in korea.
turn 46: sold ROP for 22 gold to the Koreans.

map turn 47: its a farmers gambit all the way, only the Russians
have more cities!

Hey, someone tell those Koreans that blocking that isthmus is a RBCiv exploit!

The odds changed dramatically yesterday. I was afraid to get stuck in
isolation for a while and fall back in tech but now I am ahead in
tech and have an excellent position for conquering to the south and
lock up the bottleneck! (After filling up the lands first.) I expect
the Russian and Korean expansion towards me to be slow as there are
jungles and desert between them and the plains south of me. (I will
have a 7th city in 3 turns.) Also, only the Russians have more cities
than me while 4 of 5 other ai's only have 5 cities! I am researching
Map Making now, due in 34 turns. I am realy anxious to see what the
world map looks like!

turn 63:
Bought the WM two turns ago and it seems Yndy is still quite small.
Bought a embassy and ROP with Russia as they were annoyed and walking
in my lands. Their capitol was building an archer...

turn 103:

I declared war on Russia and took 1 city. I have 5 horses, about 18 swords and more horses underway and am strong compared to them so I expect this will be a walk-over. My hopes are on a leader for the FP.

pics will follow.

ERIKK · 09-11-2003, 10:55

turn 108:

The war against Russia is going very war with low losses and steady
advance. Within twenty turns I will be able to get the entire sub-
continent and have a healty empire (with a FP).
