4) last and most importantly, the one responsible for elevating me out of the dark ages, trade routes....Markus
However I have taken trade strategy to a new height and can accomplish things unthinkable in your time oedo.
Like democracy by 2050.
If you would like an education, I will give it to you I am easy to find.
My ICQ# is 85870472
Thats 2x... given the right starting trade specials it can be accomplished any time. Not only that there is absolutely no challange in it. You play 4 or 5 practice games and you have the hang of it. You remind me of species, he thought he knew everything about trade after trying it a few times on 2x. once he switched to 1x 1x diety he got slapped around a few times and even now months later he is still learning to prefect the strat on 1x. I firmly believe most of what you 2x players try and teach is totally useless here. In 2x you have so much production and cash you can build everything at once. In 1x you have to pick and choose what you want to build. In 1x diety, when i have 15 cities. The 5 inner cities are set to build caravans, another 5 are building settlars and another 5 are building temples or settlars. Then once i am done building caravans 2 or 3 biggest inner cities build marketplaces temples and banks and grow to size 12. That is all you need to know about how to grow...
Join the army, travel to foreign countries, meet exotic people -
and kill them!
yes, even dumb-asses can learn and winning a MP game would be nice. Come on, strat, post your strategy so that all can learn from your glorious wisdom instead of a chosen few
You 1 x 1 deity players really amuse me. In 1 x 1 it is so easy to do a trade strategy its pathatic.
1st of all, you dont have a large, mobile army, that you cant see coming via city radius coming to kill you.
2nd, you know that your oposition is not hunting down huts like a maniac cause he cant build the troops because of the 1 production, also the 1 move reduces hutting all the more and deity forces more units to be built in city or temples and such.
1 x 1 deity is the longest, most boring, most restrictive and talent retarding way to play.
Furthermore, it is mostly a luck fest as if the start or huts dont get you, a slow tech rate verse a fast one where the other player is in republic for 12+ more turns then you, you lose everytime.
1 x 1 is where thoose that cant keep up with the rapid pace of a 2 x 2 game go to play to restrict the capabilities of thier opposition.
At this time, I challenge anybody to beat me on a premade board(not by me, but just a fair start) with no huts on a large or med board and a manly 2 x 2 format and full bribing.
come on strat, post your stategy. i work and don't have any time to play civ (and my isp sucks). so just post it, if its really long i can print it out and read it at work
Anyone wants to take Strat up on his challenge, I'll make the fair map (and you know I'm good at that).

you got the benchmarks (2x2x [king as I guess], trade routes, democracy in 2050). sometimes this is even more than a strategy guide. if you really want to know how it works, try it yourself . if you´re patient enough you will find out on your own. this can´t be that difficult.
I guess he means 2050BC. I just gave it a try. I set up a small map and started playing.
- direct path to republik, revolt, wlt
- then straight to trade
- built carawans and used some demanded commodities within my own empire
- masonry, construction, horsebackriding, wheel, banking, engineering, invention (I was lucky, I found invention in a hut)
2050Bc: voilà democracy, just in time . I have 9 cities, some of them with temples.
and all of this in my very first try. I think a hardcore explorer (like eyes) would have kicked me, but if I were alone on an island this would have been a proper strategy.
