Why me!

[Will9]

Okay so I'm playing an epic, normal sized, low sea level, 12 player. By 3670 BC I've met Gengis Khan, Alexander, and Saladin. I do have a very good starting spot, and plan is to hit my 4th neighbor, Asoka, as hard and as soon as possible to give myself an early advantage.

I just found out that Delhi is on a hill, and have decided to wait to attack Asoka.

And your army is...?

Why not?

The smallest in the world. I ended up founding the religon that is the official religon of every country on the continent. So I didn't see the need for a large army early on when every country loves me. I am now building up to start a mass march across the continent.

When I'm waiting for the diplomicy screen to come up for me to declare war on Asoka, I compared our scores and noticed that mine was 666.

I hope Ashoka wins.

Well all he has is tundra city on the other side of the continent. As you can guess he is my vassal. Gengis Khan attacked me when I was half way done with my invasion. He had the smallest army in the world. Although, I had no troops to spare since I had taken heavy loses taking Asoka's hilltop cities. I was already making some troops when Gengis attacked me, so I sent those troops up to my northern border to hold him back. I then used the strength of my Numidians to hold Asoka back until I could make enough troops to attack Asoka head on. Once I vassalized Asoka, I went up to attack Gengis. Once I finally took all his cities near me I vassalized him with his tundra city near Asoka's tundra city. Sorry Shiva, he was far from beating me.

I hate you.

I'm glad you beat him. Asoka's face bugs me for some reason and in my current game he was a vassal yo-yo. I attacked him with the intent of taking one city early in the game. (I had an iron mine in the area, and he plopped down a settler, and the eventually the border shifted it to him. No, no, no, that Iron was mine!) I took his city and he vassalized himself to Peter, but later on for whatever reason he was a free agent again. Then he was in a war with the Arabs and was Peter's vassal again. Then he wasn't again. Then I attacked him again (I wanted his resources, this time coal. I didn't need it, but I didn't want him to have it out of general meanness). and he hooked up with Peter again. I made peace with them both after taking three of Asoka's five or six remaining cities. Then Shaka jumped him, and wiped him out so fast I don't thnik Peter got a chance to react.
