Nice....what year did you get corp and indyOriginally Posted by ITZ DENI3D
My japs beat his Greeks. Thought I was going to get first space victory since I heard prey doesn't quit usually, but once I took some cities back and GS'd Industrial and Corp on same turn he decided he didn't want to watch my space ship fly off so he called itGG's
Oh snap.....well Im goin huntin'......for wild beast.......
Think I want to see the China V.S. Zulu be the grudge match for week 7...
When's a good time for you to win, Grizz?
Damn, of course I get the Mongol V.S. Mongol match against the best Mongol player in the worldI feel like a high school football team trying to play against a junior college football team on there home turf. Ugghh lol. Luck, are your there? Its me DENI3D, I could sure use some help this next week if you wouldn't mind poking your ugly head out
Easy...Attack him early:-)Damn, of course I get the Mongol V.S. Mongol match against the best Mongol player in the world
Sory Maw for giving him the winning strategy.
Why thank you Chug! I did not expect anyone to be rooting for me. I won't let you or anyone down!
I think that'll be cool too.
Well, you can let me down, I wouldn't mind winning this division/league/tourney
Hey Cwis, what time can you play tonight? I can play any time after 6 ET, but an exact time would be great as I have some other things to get done tonight.
I can play anytime after 6 to so 7 sounds good to me
OK, see you at 7 ET. It's a date!
it was the pike that stopped me there. i had 2 vet WA's. the 1st attacks 4.5-6 but the animation is too fast and it dies. the 2nd beats an archer 4.5-5 and gets inf. i then attack the wounded pike 6-5 and lose. it would have been a big help to get that, for either dem or fundy. as it was i was hanging semi close in tech when you hit atlantis. i was about to set sail with a bunch more settlers, but instead had to try for some sort of attack to slow you down. as you said your cruiser fleet wasn't going to allow that. i had 2 ga's but couldn't see any of your cities to flip. lack of map knowledge FTL.
Destroy Duuuuuuuuuke!
Whenevers clever mate Im on a lot after 5pm est
Meh, I can be the LeBron James (according to Blades) of this league
had a big 1 vs rem0, my japs vs his greeks.
im surprised i managed a game out of this 1 but i think it clearly defines the power of the japanese, considering rem owned the map and killed my attacking forces, he still won in the end but there was some major knight battles going on 2wards the end but steampower support was 2 much for me 2 handle, really gd fun. gg
I didn't have the ai very close to me so threatening them for money and selling them tech worked out well in that game. I don't play Greece very often but i have to admin they have some nice perks such as those awesome 80 dollar libraries after 14 tech like the chinese. does anyone know what the hell the 2nd perk of more great people means? It didn't drop my initial requirement for my first great person. it was still 150 culture.
I won 2-0 against Cwis
First game my Japs vs his Greeks. He gets walk in on Rome for COL and takes Russia late. I take the Indians with cattle. Nothing to significant happens for awhile. We both expand for a bit and scout each other out. He got Irrigation if I remember right as I was working gold trying to get as many cities out as possible. I found AW and switched to Demo which was key. Since I was host I got Monarchy and Banking tiebreaker. I saw that he had some cats coming and I defended with a LA, HA, and great artist. He took a city or two but nothing major. Soon after I got knights and took my cities back. Then I started pulling away in tech and hit industrialization with a GS. Cruiser fleet and a couple armies later he called it. He did get corp but it was way too late.
Next game I get a great Greek start. Settled in 4000. 100g in 3400 or 3300. HA kills Spain but no Nav. Then I kill Zulu. I get temples with was great with the Greek more GP bonus. He kills 2 of my HA with legions at his cap which was pretty impressive. It just prolonged the game though because I had 4 hills, 6 science, and 3 grass in my cap. I had grown to 4, got irrigation, got construction, and make a few cat armies and galleon fleet. I had a GL too so my cats were elite. I just rolled through each of his cities with 40+ attack. I also had two GH so Athens was making 17 hammers a turn.
sounds like you played sum strong games cwis ,gd 2 hear, and nice sweep mr duke
The first game was mine to lose but im not very experienced as the greeks and switching in and out of governments killed me I should of waited for him to bring the fight to me instead of me bringing it to him cause he stayed in democracy as I was attacking and then flipped his city I never really had a set strategy and thats what killed me. The second game was just an up hill battle when I never really had a chance I see him get his gold early and take Spain and Zimbabwe both before 2000I bc so I made 3 separate warriors 2 archers and 3 separate legions to take out his 2 horse armies. He was ahead in tech and settling a good amount of cities I spread out to about 12 cities and try to play catch up my first gp was a ga which I used in accident to flip a 2 pop zimbawbwe with a single pike in it. I catch up a little bit but it was too late as he came with upgraded cat armies and rolled through my cities
I had hope in ya man... Duke just better than you, lol. Nah well played Cwis, it was some tough games you were in bro. Good job Duke!
That was a fun one. Had me on the edge of the couch the whole game. The non-vet HA vs. KT in Beijing button race tilted the early scale towards me. But then the Aztecs screwed me over royally. It took me about 10+ turns to take them down since my HA kept getting injured and they had gold saved up for units. I could not switch back to demo and backfill into medival and plant my waiting settlers (5) the way I wanted to. Delayed the whole game by a lot. You expanded like a mad man and got Irrigation and a GH I think. I knew were coming for me with knights, but I wanted to tech to invention and steam and then switch to religion. I managed the first two, but never made it to religion. The battles were fun. What saved me in the end was that I GS'ed industrialization and had enough funds to build counters and the cruiser fleet.
But it was quite the performance from you to come back and almost overwhelm my forces. The Aztec AI really cost me about 8 turns.
GG Maw!
Multi can you play tonight? I'll be available from 7pm GMT onwards.
Cheers,
Sutty.
Still can't figure time differences. When is 7 gmt when I'm cst?
We are GMT -5. So he can play starting at 2 pm CST.
No show from multi. I'm available during the week from 1pm CST until 7pm CST at weekends I can usually play later. Same window for tonight and I'll try again. I can't add you as a friend as your list is full which is a bit of a pain. Ditch some brisket and get the rib eye added... ;-)
I can play now!
I'm still at work! Would it be easier for me to let you know when I can't play in CST?
I work from 3:00am CST till 11:59am CST. I then have about a five hour window before I go to bed at 5-6pm CST. That is your window monday to friday.
Saturday/Sunday I am available 5:00am CST - 6:00pm CST.
That should give you plenty of time to work around your hectic schedule for 2 games of Civ. See you soon.
I'm online waiting, Grizz
I think he is in class for another hour
Grizz kicked the s..t out of me. I'll never play again. He must do the write up. I need to find some kitchen ware to play with. GG Tiger
LOL, nah no hectic schedule but that people are wanting to face me for nothing all around the world or just for pride. I sent you a friend request after I posted I could play you but now it is 500 p.m CST time and I havent seen you accept or be online so you must be sleep now.
Yea that first one was over before it started....
Gm1 My host, he chose to be Greece vs Japan
Lets see all i really have to say is I took out Tripli/Fundy, and Engl/Mon early. I also found the GW making it impossible for him to attack. The kicker is I was having such a nice game I was well into making my Cat rush before I even took Engl so around the time he called it I had 4 Fundy CA heading his way.
Gm2
I had a slow start but I know he did too because my pikeman were camping his trees. Problem is he got all the barb huts. Luckily I saw where he was heading with his 100g settler so I sent a late HA after it. After taking it he called it.
Got game 2 in vs. Maw. My Japanese beat his Greeks.
I start way up north, he starts way south. Turned out that we were both on the huge ] shaped mainland, at opposite ends. I settle after 3 turns in a no grass spot to get a 3300 BC walk in on the Mongols - decent. A few turns later, Maw gets the British for Monarchy - oh oh. I got decent access to gold, so I get my 100g and build 2 HAs. I did not know where to go so I sent one west and one east. The one to the east found the Arabs by a hill, but was non-vet. The turn I move on the hill, I see Maw's HA next to the hill. I overcome the shock and win the button race to attack 9 vs. 6 and win. I then proceed to take Tripoli for fundy. It took Maw a while to get his 100g, but he had demo and Monarchy, so I assumed that he could do some mean teching. I send both HAs and a spy south. Find London, take it by winning 2 9 vs. 7.5 battles. He attacks with a knight the next turn and loses 4 vs. 6. Brings another knight but then calls it since I had too much land, two fundy HAs by his cap and he had no resources to actually build KAs at that time.
GGs Maw. The deciding factor in both games was that I managed to take the AI cap that both of us wanted. Could have gone the other way too.
DP, I will be on vacation from Wednesday through the rest of the week. Can you play today (after 1 pm EST) or Monday (around 5 pm EST) or Tuesday (after 1 pm EST)?
Liam and multi lets get in gear...games need to be completed by midnight my time...
lol I can play pretty much any of those times. lets shoot for today. I am working but only have one call atm. I am oncall today but I have to go to the edge of our territory. a drive about an hour and a half each way. I will be leaving in the next hour so my best guess is I will be back in about 5 hours provided I don't get any more calls in to run today.
2 games in against Danthechan for week 3.
1. Startet on the longest peninsula I have ever seen. Got one barb an got my HA out. Dan got China early and my ha met him when I left the peninsula, Game over. He also took out the Greeks. I tried to stay in the game an made a CA and took one city, but did'nt help me much. He GS'd Industri and surely had fun in that game:-)
2. A lot better start for me here. Walked a bit and took out Zulu(walk in). Made my HA and took out Athens. Lots of barbs for me and got Irrigation first...Well, had a 9-1 tech lead at that time. Attackt Dan with my HA and lost 9-5 but was not worried. Had 12 cities when I started attacking with galleon and CA. He called it when I took the first city. Guess he had a bad start as I had in the first game.
GG Dan
1-1
MultiPlayaBeast vs LiamSutty
1st Game: Multi=Greeks and Liam=Japanese
I don't settle until 3300 bc. I get spies throughout the game. I meet Liam and he already has his 100g. Me and him never go into war but tried to kinda fight over a barb. I get a horseman army together late and try to fight the Egyptians at 1400 bc. I lose 6-5 and call it.
LiamSutty Wins!
2nd Game: Multi=Japanese and Liam=Greeks
I get a phenomenal start. I move and get friendly 4000 bc for spy. I settle 3900 bc and send a warrior towards a barb that the spy seen. I get another warrior out 3700 bc and another out 3600 bc. Did I fail to mention I also know where SoC at? I'm getting a good amount of barbs and I meet sometime after 2500 bc the Greeks. I take a barb that Liam horse was trying to get. He calls it after telling me he got HB from his first barb and there basically wasn't nothing else he could do.
MultiPlayaBeast Wins!
I split my games with DP:
1st game DP won. He takes Berlin 3500BC, I had to walk longer and settle in a bad spot and take Moscow in 3300 BC. Our warriors meet by a barb (both on hill, 2 tiles away). He takes the barb, I take the hill. He sends a horse towards me. I decide to let him take Moscow with it and counter with my only horse. He wins 1.5 vs. 2 and that's it.
2nd game I won: I settle 3800 BC by the Aztecs, but they get a barb for caravan (20g for me, 50g for them). So they can rush warriors like crazy. But my WA prevails and I get Technotitlan in 2700BC. DP got Delhi after 3500 BC already. I tech to Hbr, my scounting warrior sees his and a barb. I have a horse out, so does DP. I let DP take the barb and kill his horse netting the barb city and 6 gold :-) I move my vet WA and non-vet HA over towards his other barb city. My single warrior walks in, he takes it back with a horse and builds a road to bring an archer. I have the HA and WA 2 tiles away, move closer and attack w/ HA against the archer and get vet. Next turn I overrun the horse and walk along the road to attack Karakorum and take it. DP already hit his 100g mark a few turns before, so I was surprised that there were not more units or a counter army there. But my speedy arrival must have caught him by surprise.
GGs DP.
