i get early fundy but itz gets early democracy for pikes and japan and 7cog and ark of covenant and KT and soc and manages 2 hold the lead for the win...just♥ and cruisers and industrialization and rifleman and why are there so many ands??
GG's Itz.....your play has obviously improved of late....btw...I guess we never got around too it but multi and I split 1-1.....I won the russia vs french.....and then he won the russia vs french.....gg's
Multi used russia twice
Really? WTF? Any suggestions how I deal with this? Whatever you guys think is best I don't think a rematch would be fair to Mawpawk though...
Take off one of his mid level civs. Not too harsh, but fair. Maybe Japan or something.
Sounds good to me.
Yea I dont think it really matters who he doesnt use as long as he does use the mongols...
Multi and I split
His romans beat my english
My aztec beat his french
Both games were very boring as one of us got a huge advantage in the first 10 turns. In fact, I didn't even get a hut or barb in my first game and multi had SoC before I settled! The Aztec game I had 3 vet HA and 250 gold in ancient.
I split with Mawpawk
Gm1 his greeks vs my mongols.....man I goofed...attacked a spanish warrior from my cap to injure it and walk around it for the walk in....but it wouldnt let me retreat so spain ai took me out...
Gm2 Awesome game here...his Arabs vs my Egypt with Stonehenge. He takes USA early and get the GW which stinks. I see 7CoG clear at the opposite pole so I send my 100g settler for it. Maw taes that city but the damage is done. Ive gotten Trading post and barracks, nav and cats. we battle a lot his legions vs my cats then his cats vs my cats and I defend for the win. it might have been closer if his kids were on top of him...GGs
1-1 maw vs me
1 in vs dan. His english vs my japan. he takes russia early but I think I get most of the gold. He was doing well and expanding but I sent 2 CA to his cap. Apparently I took his cap before he could transfer mad saved production and I got 7C same turn so he called it.
1-0 vs dan
2-1 overall
Since multi used Russians AND French twice we will substitute them for Japs and Greeks. Dammit multi pay attention
Beat grizz spanish vs spanish. Weirdest thing happened. I was about to take the American cap AND take a GB from then the same turn. Then the GOD DAMN BARBS KILLED THE AMERICA AI!!! Poof! City gone! What a joke!
Other than that, I got 2 scientists and a humanitarian and irrigation bonus. That equals early knights and fundy with a lot of big cities to fall back on. GG grizz.
I just goofed up against Duke. Spanish mirror match. I take the mongols early and he is just on the other side. I have 3 warrios in there and he has 1 outside the city. I attack with one warrior before I form the army and try to retreat to late losing the warrior. duke then builds a WA and takes the cap 1 turn before I can get my WA together. Should have destroyed him and taken his cap but I goofed and he took it from me leaving me with low gold and one 2 pop cap. GG duke
I actually would have had a WA on the other side of that single warrior. I was hoping you were going to attack it so I could kill your WA with mine (depending on wounds). You should have just made a warrior army in the Mongol cap and you would have won as we would have been even but you could make 4 gold a turn out of the Mongol cap.
Ade if you could let us know what times you are on it would help since you have the latest time zone and it will be hard to get our games in since you are hardly on. I'm not rushing you this tournament is going super fast it would just be easier for everyone to know what times you are available...
I see error in your plan your WA would have been attacking my vet WA in a tree so even if it was injured you would have been attacking 3-4.5 or 3-6 and probably would have lost. Besides on mic you agreed that it would have been over if I had simply retreated and made the army like I tried to do. Oh well......a goof is a goof
I'm on gmt (same as prey). The last few days my son has occupied the xbox, but I'm going to play a lot in the days to come. If I see any of you guys online I'll send an invite.
Me and ade played 2 games in about 10 min. First my Mongols V.S. his Germans. I get a very good start, at least for the Mongols I get friendly for 25 and name 2 tiles I take one barb then he shows up with a WA 2 turns away from cap, my single warrior served me well and injured his army twice! I have enough time to build a WA in cap. He attacks me and retreats and I get veteran. I tech BW and build an archer and send my WA to Washington 3 turns away. I lose 4.5-3 and it is game over
My Egyptians V.S. his Mongols. I get HGB and a friendly and it shows me 7cog. I build a warrior and save up hammers I get a barb that is 2 turns away from his cap. He gets a walk in on Greeks but no tech. I win a 3-2.5 and take his cap game over. GG's I guess lol
Ademoabo vs ITz DENI3D 1-1
Nothing much to say really.
Game 1; germany vs mongols
We both walk a few turns. I settle close to france. No name tiles, so have to hammer out a warrior. Passed a barb and decides to take it out and make a WA to capture Paris. Gets a caravan and meet the mongols. Make WA and head for Karakorum. He attacks with single warrior and by the time I doubleheal he has a fortified WA. I got march, make another WA and head for Paris. At this time he looses 5-4,5 to the americans and call it quits.
Game 2: mongols vs egypt
I walk two turns, pass a barb and see the greek border. Walk in at 3300 but get no democracy? Same turn egypt single wounded warrior shows up besides Karakorum. Next turn he leaves and I fortify my single warrior. Head back from Athens to make WA, but he doublemoves his WA and takes my capitol. Also tells me he will get 7cog in five turns. I have Athens + 1 warrior, no gold. Attack 1 vs 4 and loose(damn
To bad we started so close both games. Mongols can be quite a factor if they survive the first few rounds. GG
1-1 vs ademoabo
gm1 greek vs greek...I am told where 7cog and the knight wonder are but they are N pole I am south. So I rush a settler out of 3 pop athens and make the trek eventually getting both and SoC...he put up a valliant fight but my steamer cats got him in the end
gm2 his aztec vs my spanish
I have a bad settler walk and walk back 1 turn to settle. Just before I do he settles with his borders touching me and takes out japan next turn. I decide to walk away. 2800bc and I still havent found any gold. I finally settle in his starting spot so he knows exactly where to send his HA......pitiful that one.....GGs ade
Sorry Deni3d for putting work on you and screwing up this tourney. If anyone feels that my using French and Russians twice was very dishonorable and don't want to go with Deni3d, Grizz and Duke on me staying, I'll give up my spot. LOL, really don't see how I screwed up TWICE by using those civs again...Since multi used Russians AND French twice we will substitute them for Japs and Greeks. Dammit multi pay attention
If it makes you feel better Ill replay you in the russian game you beat me in so you can use a different civ....
I'll pass, lol!If it makes you feel better Ill replay you in the russian game you beat me in so you can use a different civ....
Just a typo, but you used the english vs my aztechs. That' s why I confused the japanese border to yours
i didn't see any way to play the 1st 1. you settled next to the only barb, and was going to take it at 1 flag. i could only retreat, and there was only about 12 barren tiles to work with. like starting on an empty island, except the enemy knows where you are and can walk there.Two quick games with Dan and he couldn't have done anything differently. First Greeks V.S. his Japs. He walks into me at 3900 and I settle. Apparently we were at the end of a peninsula and I was going to get the only barb so he called it.
My Japs V.S his Russians. I get walk in on india and end up taking Athens with Infiltration HA and get Demo. I steal a GB that settled when he took out Americans so he called it. I was about to have 4 cathedrals due to AoC in a few turns so the GB really didn't change the huge lead I had it just made it insurmountable... GG's sort of
i had a decent start in the 2nd game with russia. took dc with the settled builder, then sent out my WA. i met denied and lost the WA to his HA. my horses were out of position cleaning out barbs behind moscow, so i had to form an AA to keep him out of my area. he never attacked and i sent out the vet AA with another vet archer to locate his cities, with 2 vet HA's to follow. with my units just out of range to help he landed with his spy and HA. i only had a single vet archer in dc, but might have rushed more in time to save the city until cavalry arrived. losing the builder was deflating though and i meakly gave up. he would have had the gw, eitc, or sam castle before my forces ever reached him.
lost a game to grizz, my english vs his japan. we both seemed to start slow. i settled london with 2 trees and no food, then walked in on moscow. i made a huge mistake moving a caravan north. i had been going 2 steps at a time. when i finally got brave and moved 3 spaces i lost it to a barb. that slowed my 1st horse by 4 turns or so. that led to me meeting grizzs horse at the nearest barb instead of taking it. we traded a couple single horses and he retreated from the area. i eventually got a vet HA but bejjing wasn't falling this late. i was finally getting somewhere, taking a french city on their island and settling some dye. he thwarted my plans by double moving some CA's and taking london. i was storing a gb there which i wasn't sure how to use. i was going to steal a 2nd gb from france in the coming turns. i was very frustrated, as when he attacked i still had 15 seconds to move. i opened up the city screen but the clock then ran out in super fast mode. i had about 30 banked hammers that could have saved london. i had a barracks in moscow and should have just had an army there to be safe. it would have been a challenge to hold moscow, but i gave in before finding out. grizz had the gw btw.
my germans lost to mawpawks egypt w/collosus. he had 3 deserts while i started far away, with little gold. i took zimbabwe, barely, and the ark with 3 cities. i never got close to 100 g and never got a barracks. he was cranking out 80 tech when i called it. we were wasting our time.
It would've been impossible, I had pikeman there was nothing you could do... Athens was 10 turns away from Deli and Kyoto so you wouldn't have been able to take any of my cities... Not to mention I would be doing over 40 culture a turn with 4 cathedrals in a few turns... GG's but you were screwed all around, and the only reason I got Athens was because I got infiltration upgrade you were destined to lose it buddy sorryEventually we will have an epic game
Need some confirmation on what civ Grizz used on 2nd game. Was it English or Spanish?
i had an inf and regular vet HA, so single pikes wouldn't have stopped me. with the cathederals you would have seen me coming miles away. i did get my good game against you, only in ranked instead of when it mattered. feudalism from a friendly as 3rd tech, ga from the school to steal your scout HA, and dc along with it. pretty nice start.It would've been impossible, I had pikeman there was nothing you could do... Athens was 10 turns away from Deli and Kyoto so you wouldn't have been able to take any of my cities... Not to mention I would be doing over 40 culture a turn with 4 cathedrals in a few turns...

got 2 games in with grizz
My english vs Grizz Germans
I had 2 paths to choose from and i choose wrong settling next to a barb at the end of a peninsula (i didn't know it was a peninsula until after i explored with my warriors. got 30g and grizz had already taken out an ai. since i knew i was fairly safe from attack and couldn't attack anyone i hammered out a gally and set sail hoping for a gally drop of some relic goody. found a friendly on an island and it showed me SoC for a GS and GA, teched HBR while waiting to get gally back with GP. then Grizz went to war with russia who i met. he eventually took them out and I flipped that city with a march wa in it and it was 4 pop. I rushed knights with GS and loaded an knight army and 100g settler on boat and set sail for grizz's territory i settled my 100g city on an island with fish, 2 whale and dye and dropped the army off right in the center of his territory and took his wide open cap with his barracks. I ventured too far out with KA and it was killed by his LA 9-9. I lost my march wa to an even battle with his la but my 2nd ka takes out his la and I put a vet aa in his cap which he can't take back and he calls it.
2nd game
My Aztec vs Grizz Zulu.
I get walkin on egypt at 3800 for oracle. he takes russia cap. I sneak my way into his territory and take his cap. he get 7cog and i get soc after I get my 1st GP so I got a GH and GB and GA from SoC. i bring my HA defended by archer into his moscow terroitory and flip it and he calls the game
2-0 Me GGs
just played denied
gm 1 his spain vs my aztec. I start off pretty fast taking the mongols and 3 of their pop 2...thats right pop 2 cities....I get good gold and find a start taking lots of barbs....eventually I get GW and send my HA to Itz cap. He also had japan. I couldnt takke his cap and he then killed my HA. He eventualy drops out when I had 4 KA's and a galleon fleet with a spy heading his way.
gm2 his arab vs my arab. I start on an island but what a start. found 3 huts for 75g and samurai knight wonder. Used the knight to get the only barb on the island for 100g. Put the knight on the mainland with a boat. ended up losing eventually to england 7.-4.5. meanwhile itz has a slow start but eventually takes frances 2 cities. He also has the main land and a march fundy WA so I assume he got gold but dont know. he does end up get SoC. I stole a GB early from france and build EITC with it after using my 1st GS on nav. I get 2 more GS later. 1 from 500g. I ended up using a gs on inv so I could use another gs on steel and used the invention ge for 200g. basically I had a cruiser fleet with 3 fundy vet CA and a KA PA and AA. took one of his cities and he flipped it so I took it back. He calls it.
2-0 me
I dropped out because I had no control of my units lol. I missed at least 3 turns that game I froze twice and had to rejoin both times. On the second time after the turn ended I had no control over my units Multi said that only happens if two turns are ended when the human player is gone, I can't verify that so I don't know. All I know is that I didn't quit because of some knight armies you said you had, I quit because I had no control over any of my units. Other than that GG though...
I didnt say you did I said I had those knight armies heading to your cap when you quit. Besides I lost the same amount of turns that you did because its not like I could play while you were gone I missed those turns too. Lets be honest I had a nice lead or else you wouldnt have given me the win you would have requested a replay, Im pretty sure you said that yourself.
My French beat ade's Zulu
I get Fundy off the Arabs early and then I am able to hold off the Impi rish with a 50g road. Then 5 vet fundy legion armies later...
My Mongols beat ade's Arabs
He gets an island start and I get a million barbs.
My Arabs beat Grizz's Indians
I played almost perfect this game. I had a big island start but got 2 galleys out and took 2 caps with warriors (Mongol and English for Monarchy). I then applied pressure at various locations throughout the game as I slowly expanded on dye. He quit around 14 techs. I was 2 turns away from knights and had a 11 prod city and a couple other 4 and 6 prod cities. He got SoC early but I got AoC and I think one of his GP was an artist.
Ill remember that Duke I told you I was saving my middle teir civs for you and you went and used Arabs on me. I guess you thought you needed an advantage. Ill be using my evil civs against you next time we meet dont worry.....
MultiPlayaBeast vs Itz Deni3d
1st Game: Multi=Egyptians(Stone) and Deni3d=English
I settle first turn with two desert and Deni3d didn't settle till like 3500 but he had 60g before it. I realize that not just I get Stone but also the Romans in the game... really gay! So I'm upset but I get my 100g waaaaaaay before Deni3d did. He settled in a not so good spot too so I'm ok. I build a HA and take out the Romans for republic. I have enough gold that I rush a trading post in Thebes. I got like 4 cities now and Deni3d is steadily trying to take out the French Paris. He continues to fail doing it and I'm just gaining gold on the side. And the major game changer came when I found AW for GW. Deni3d finds 7cog but unfortunately it was late and him not being able to attack me, him wasting gold on HA for it to lose to Paris gave me the game.
MultiPlayaBeast Wins!
2nd Game: Multi=Germans and Deni3d=Zulu
This game was over simply because he was Zulu. He gets pretty much all the land and I get dumb stuff from barbs. He takes out Russia and eventually Mongols even after losing to them 4.5 to 2.5. He starts to tech away and found KT too. We met and some little scraps ensued but it stayed silent till I made a last chance rush with 5 KA's and they pretty much all died to one elite PA in Zimbabwei. It was game over a looooong time ago.
Itz Deni3d Wins!

It's all good Grizz, I'll be ready.
Really it was just strategy. If I beat you that game I'm pretty much locked for a final spot.
Well with our luck....as "tributes" in the next 8man tourney I propose an alliance.....mwuhaha
