    Well, I'm going to give it another shot. This time I'm playing the Celts on a standard Earth map (large). Once my "supreme-ness" is secure, I'll let some has-been power waltz into Cardiff.

      Make sure the AI beats the Barbs to it.

        Heh. I'll deliberately put an AI unit right next to the undefended capital. Although that's going to have to wait — my most recent game at the Emperor level has left me in the dust.

        The Carthaginians basically took over all of Eurasia in short time and are ignoring me (the Aztecs) in Central and North America. It's funny seeing the AI get two techs per turn and completing wonders every three turns or so. The AI cheats at that level are so obvious it was aggravating. Eventually I just accepted it, though.

        The strange thing is, the AI never launched a starship prior to the end of the game (2020), even though it had all the knowledge needed by the 1960s. I suppose it was waiting for me to catch up or something. How humanitarian, eh?

          It doesn't matter how much the AI cheats. Just take the woopass stick to them for a bit. End of problem.

            Woopass stick has not yet reached my end of the pond. What is it? (I think I have a vague idea )

                Perhaps rah should demonstrate for those unaccustomed to the deployment of the whoopass stick.

                  Be careful - it's what the banning rod was called, prior to the invention of the lathe and the internet.

                    Yeah, but, rah, I'm just too damn nice. I'd suck at MP, that's for sure. "What?! Airbases on top of Mt. Everest?! No way!"
