Hey, it ain't over till the fat guru sings!

And regarding India, his quiet and peaceful continent is also partly the fruits of his diplomacy. Credits for him there as well.

[India (DoC)]

Ok, You are very very wrong about that 30 turn. First 75.000 culture is needed per city, since you could do the math yourself I can tell you that it 's currently 80->120 turns in my 3 cities. probably I can speed it up further a bit , but it still months of gameplay.

The game is not over.., you know it's enough if I lose a city. Or maybe a spaceship could be built in this time especially if someone manage to slow me down.

And yes my position helped me a lot to do my builder strategy and even if I don' like wars I've decided that in case I'd become strong I will play a crazy evil civ just to make the game interesting
I can also tell that in the mid game I did not expect that England, Byzantium and Perisa (even the Natives) could get so close to me in tech that now we almost have the same type of army-good work!, I'm really not so sure about my final victory as some people here

[England (DoC)]

The game is good As for India, well first and most the player has played very well all game. Still I would credit India's location and the none action by Mali and Natives, that let India safely concentrate from very early stage on his science.

That region of the map has been a safe heaven. I can't say that for the rest of the world. Where wars have been a constant thing. And unlike India no one had the luxury to concentrate on their science purely.

Many ifs in this game, if that happened, if that could have been, but yes imagine India located on Hastog's land or on the big continent.

Again India is playing their game very well with what they are given, i bet many would have followed such a strategy given the chance. I'am was just analyzing the location and what got us here.

[Korea (DoC)]

It has been an unuusal game in that the in game vicotr was decided a long time ago and even the leading out of ogame vote scorers have been well established very early on.

So whilst there is always some fun in participation , would hav ebeen more fun to see people activly looking to see how they can prevernt this sort of conclusuon

[Orb (DoC)]

Well reguardless if the game is over in 30 turns or not, it has been a fun ride.

[Greece (DoC)]

Korea you know between you and england alone I'm sure you can at least delay India's victory. Just putting that out there.

Korea probably can't take the initiative here as number 6 in the game (nor can Greece as 15th )

So I understand what Korea is saying.

Another victory outcome is for annihilation of lots of civs to get land or pop victory but that wouldn't be diplo... and I don't think Basil would do that... and I hope my ally wouldn't let him!

[Korea (DoC)]

No dont have the numbers of soldiers needed to do it..

You need to do some experimenting with it to see what i mean.

I have done it.. I built some scenarios and played them out a few times using the tech levels and city size etc etc.. and lost every battle...

India ends up winning everytime

Civ 4 combat against citys you need overwhleming odds.

[Orb (DoC)]

Korea you know between you and england alone I'm sure you can at least delay India's victory. Just putting that out there.

[Korea (DoC)]

Well said greece , you seem to be wise player , pity you didnt start the game and be a major player.

I have been trying to get this done since BC times.. but keep getting told i need to put up or shut up and should invade indioa by myself.

[Pinchak]

How about we hand out some Voltans?

Voltan is a dirty word.

[Greece (DoC)]

I don't think the big powers have been working hard or coordinating properly to really change this outcome. I might be wrong but everyone seems to be having fun fighting amongst themselves and it's a good dipo game. It's just that India is laughing all the way to the shrine

[Greece (DoC)]

Yes I think cultural victory for India is about 30 turns away if its 50,000 per 3 cities?

At normal game speed its 50,000 culture points but at epic, not sure.

[Korea (DoC)]

all credit to toni for lasting so long with no invasion .

not due tio diplo but due to infighting and power mad leaders.

getting cloer though toni hope you got those citys well protected. marines are great at eaborne invasions

[Persia (DoC)]

I micromanage all my cities every turn, go through all my workers, check all borders, all stats and graphs, look at the research paths, and no unit is on auto-movement or even has move orders past the current turn

I fortunately can do this a lot quicker then India though, eventhough I got more cities :B
An hour.... :eek!:
