    I've had 6 waves of barbs thus far, only 2 coming with a King. Sadly, I had to bump them and their ugly chariot accomplices in the interests of saving my cities.

    From what I've observed over time, the King seems only to accompany units with 2 moves available to them - horses, chariots, etc. I've never seen them with archers. Can't recall seeing them with legion.

      I don't think I am happier than when destroying another civ - tonight the Indians. Sad isn't it

        Did you use three quicks and a spinner? Or two quicks and two spinners?

              Another good session tonight. We returned to a very old game which is in the 20th century, 1905. I finished off the Persians but Hydey deserves the laurels.

              Interestingly after the save I continued with my turn and took the German capital. They had a civil war and split into Germans and Americans Never seen that in a multiplayer game.

                  With 3 humans still in the game at 1905 this should be an interesting finish.

                    I've only ever seen it once in a multiplayer game. It probably doesn't happen often because an AI civ isn't often the biggest civ.

                      It will be interesting to see if it happens in play - the game was SP when I did it of course.

                      When I get it, I'm thinking of renaming the German capital Dieticity

                        It should happen. The pre-requisites are in place. When I saw it happen in MP, one of the other AI civs actually caused it to happen.

                        Fair enough. But it will mean Hydey has to start all over again against the Americans. Still, that will come with its own inbuilt incentive.

                          This is an interesting game in the sense that its a game where I was still following my old single player tactics, that is, sit back till the last century of the game building up your civ and then smash all your opponents in a viscious burst of conflict

                            The game is so old that I've forgotten what my intentions were.

                              Well let's see, Hydey has spent pretty much the whole game conquering the Persians. Which I guess means he's pretty much at a loose end now

                              You were trying to conquer the Indians, who have been a thorn in your side for centuries, but you were getting pretty frustrated because they are the most militarised civ. Now I see you are turning your attention to the Germans - but you're a bit late there, I just landed over 50 units on their Western border and am occupying half their main island whilst their cities fall into my hands like ripe plums

                                It's a pain in the arse fighting anyone under Democracy. The Indians have stopped irritating me. No doubt they'll come back again, but I can handle anything they throw at me. The Germans irritated me briefly, so I was going to knock off that city they took from Hydey. I was even going to give it back to him. I went to Fundy for a couple of turns, but switched back again. Decided I've got enough cities.

                                How's work today? I'm putting off writing a "Water Rats" scene breakdown.
