Another Succession Game?

[snoopy369]

4000 BC: Not a great start, but not a bad one - on a river at least. We're the Iroquois, chosen mostly off the top of my head since nobody said anything. Playing on Emperor level.

3950 BC: Starting with Writing as usual; starting on a Granary at Salamanca.

3700 BC: God I hate emperor ... stupid luxuries ...

The rest of the turns were spent exploring and upping luxuries. One other river in the area, which is ok, but a desert away, which is annoying. (But we're ag, so desert isn't as horrible as it sounds - just means a bit of a distance in the empire to begin with.) Haven't found any civs yet (well, when I kept going to test Galleys/Curraghs I did, but i'm not going to spoil anything.) Curraghs/galleys DO work, by the way, just like in AU Mod - ocean impassable to curraghs and +1 mp in sea for curraghs, but galleys go through sea fine. (However, nothing else is au-mod.) Curraghs also carry 1 unit, and have Naval Transport instead of Naval Power checked for the AI.

Whomever wants to play next, step up. I'll fix the turn order once all five of you have played. Don't forget it's emperor, so that lux slider is your friend Fortunately we have a good settler pump city in Salamanca, so this game should go pretty well.

Initial start ...

[snoopy369]

and the zoomed out 3000 bc position ...

[snoopy369]

And the demographics. Not bad, but only 3000 BC ...

Thanks!

I'll watch for the save.

I have Civ3Complete. Any special mods needed? Any special rules?

I posted the save with my initial post of the turn report... up before the first (or second?) screenshot (of 3000 bc). If you have C3C version 1.22 (you need to dl the patch, but I've never seen Civ Complete so that may come 1.22- on your startup screen it should show 1.22 ) ... if you have it then dl the save and play!

Alright, I'm onto it now. Will report as I play.

2950 BC

• Switch to Settler (lose 3 shields). Granary will be next.
• Worker inefficiency spotted, but can't be corrected. It's Chop first, then Road, Snoopy.

2750 BC

• Found Niagara Falls 3 tiles south of Salamanca. It has a Cattle tile, a Fish tile and some nice Grassland.
• Pop a hut with the exploring Warrior. Barbs.

2710 BC

• Warrior survived. Barbs move towards Salamanca...
• Forest Chopped, but shields went to Niagara Falls. Oh well.

2630 BC

• Warrior fortifies to try and distract the barbs.
• Start Irrigation near Salamanca.

2510 BC

• Warrior killed both remaining barbs without a scratch. Now he heads south to keep exploring.

2390 BC

• Warrior will have to stay in Salamanca, because MP is needed.
• Granary in Salamanca in 6 turns, growth in 7 turns. Perfect timing.

2310 BC

• Move scouting Warrior to Salamanca, move Warrior from Salamanca to Niagara Falls (needs MP).
• Granary in Salamanca in 4 turns, growth in 5.

2150 BC

• The Granary in Salamanca is ready, the (badly needed) second Worker started.
• Slow down growth in Niagara Falls, to time it after the Granary is completed.

Looks like we've got an island for ourselves. That should be interesting...

2110 BC starts, and I'm off to the Vikings again.

And demographics. Not quite what it should look like.

The save for Skrobism. I'm sending an e-mail as well.

[Daddy-O]

I will try to play tonight. Thanks!

[Daddy-O]

Still at work. Only a few more hours before I can play!

Modo, I'm not a chopper generally, so I roaded first because I had no plans to do so.
