  • Them crazy Americans!

    I know, I know!
    The greatest delight for man is to inflict defeat on his enemies, to drive them before him, to see those dear to them with their faces bathed in tears, to bestride their horses, to crush in his arms their daughters and wives.

    Hmmm....

    I'm bored at work on a supposed holiday (everyone is off but my company apparently).

    How are Americans crazy? (sounds like the setup to a joke)
    Haven't been here for ages....

      And why does it show Gamecube64 as the thread starter? Methinks we're missing part of the thread, SG.

        I have no idea what this is about... I was just kidding around, as the thread was empty.

          Perhaps we are crazy with expansionism and industrousness in our F-15s.

              This is looking more and more like an OT thread every time I check it.

                What the...

                Anyway.

                I was playing a game and my empire was vast, Korea was abit smaller, but the sandwiched Americans only managed to get 2 cities! I took Washington to get iron. (which the Germans stole with a city, but that is another story.) Any reasons why the Americans are so small? I will post a SS later.

                  Hard to say without a look at their land. Bad starting location? Repeated German archer rushes? If started early, those destroy cities, instead of conquering them. And Americans start without Bronze Working...

                  Post a save or a screenie, so we can laugh at the puny Americans.

                      Did you buy their worker early? Or maybe it was captured or killed by Barbs early.

                      It has been shown time and again that the AI just can't cope with the loss of its only worker early in the game.

                          Difficulty level?

                          It looks like the America lost a Settler at a key moment, and went into defensive mode. Would that have been your doing?

                            Probably lost their only worker early. I saw something like that in one game--Dutch had only one city when I stumbled on them, and no workers. I built a road to them, started trade, and gave or sold them a worker. Soon after, they started expanding, which was great for me--I went to war and took their cities. I felt like they were settling for me.

                              I didn't do anything to them, other than taking Washington very recently. It is Monarch.
