I think I can provide some color without giving away too many state secrets.
The Zulu are actually not a bad civ for a human to play. The "secret" is in the power of the impi to cover horse rushes without slowing them down. Here comes a stack of 5 impi and 10 horses -- how do you feel about that
I fact, I'm sorry you guys are not here
I'm about to get pounced upon from all sides in some games and this start was strategically really nice.
We are apparently at the north end of a rather large land mass. I have not gone far enough north to prove that yet, but the minimap suggests it is so.
The start included ample horse resources, rivers, a lux, and a decent way to expand in major directions. The Japs and Vikes are located to the south.
The game will therefore be like a normal AI game for awhile. I'm busy hording the gold necessary to ally with the Vikes and attack the middle-placed Japanese for my first haul of extorted tech. This will likely be the strat followed unless the far north shows a connection to one of you is possible.
Hut popping has not been very lucrative.

Very nice strategy. I too like the impis but I use them differently.We need seperate human-only games for MP/PBEM that dont include the over-simplifications required to have a good AI

I'm not particularly interested in disrupting my neighbors who I view as a tech factory. But, if you want disruptors, none are better than the impi.Illegitimi Non CarborundumComment

Wait till you see conquistadors in action. They're even better than impis but quite costly (unfortunately).We need seperate human-only games for MP/PBEM that dont include the over-simplifications required to have a good AI

I would've bragged about my UU but I really cant remember whether i'm Greek, Persian or Korean in this game."Beware of he who would deny you access to information, for in his heart he dreams himself your master" - Commissioner Pravin Lal.Comment

Eli's last send took more than 8 hours to cross the Atlantic and show up in my inbox. So, that set us back a few hours, since my forward was too late for Spencer's work departure deadline. Mysteriously slow electrons, don't you think? BTW, Eli sends to two addresses for me and the other one was prompt.Illegitimi Non CarborundumComment
