I say we fortify and regrow our troops before marching on the huns.

I think you can attach the Great General to one of your units to make them a super-unit and get special promotions. It would be cool to have a super-Stone Axeman lead the assault. USEC_OFFICER's name suggestion also is agreeable to me.

Right now, we can do two things with a great general: Attach him to a stack of units which gives them bonus experience and special promotions, or settle him in a city, giving an xp bonus to all units built in that city. I think there was a set-up setting to make non-attached generals give bonuses to nearby units, as well as gain experience and special promotions that increase the bonuses they give, but we didn't select it.

Right now we should probably have him settle in a city...

We do have several unnamed cities, right? Or cities with heathen barbarian names. How about we settle him in one of those cities, and rename that city to "The Rtiz". That way we could have Radomir Putnik on The Ritz. Or in The Ritz as the case might be, but then the pun doesn't exactly work.

Wouldya look at that, an update.

I say we dismiss the units or return them for retraining, get resources and then start another war with the Huns, so we can control the entire southern shore, maybe southern hemisphere.

If great commanders is turned on, then make him a great commander.  Those guys are great if you can get them leveled up for a few promotions.  Otherwise attach him to a single maceman line unit for a super city raider.  Heroic 1 and Leadership are must have promotions.

It'll get updated eventually. Like, "before Christmas" eventually. In fact, there's probably gonna be a bunch of updates in December. It's on the backburner right now though.

Glad you've delayed updating for so long! Gave me time to read through this thread today. When I got a few pages back I realized "Wait, he must not be finished! I'M NOT TOO LATE! YESSSSSSS!"

It was an inexplicably exciting moment in my day. Good luck with school!

I told you there would be updates!

Rights, so where were we?
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Oh right, we just got done crushing the entire Persian empire beneath our heel.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I believe the vote was for us to continue our march of conquest, this time heading east to defeat the Huns.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

We begin our march of conquest by discovering the oven.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Two of our ambushers, Glacies and un67 I believe, are fully healed up and are sent out to hunt. I can't be arsed to micromanage them so they just get set to auto-hunt.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

We also start constructing a farm near Persepolis to farm mushrooms. Yum yum.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

This here is our new Bison Rider. Badass, huh? No, I don't know where the helmet comes from either. I think he was just born with a face like that.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

One thing to note about farms: We can clear away forests and bamboo and such thanks to having researched Slash and Burn, but we don't get any hammers from clearing them.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

However, there is a bit of a workaround which I'm not sure is an exploit or not.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

stabs is ready to head out. He's set to auto-hunt like the others.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The Huns have settled down, as evidenced by their building a settler instead of a tribe.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Persepolis... Is still worrying me. It's got a lot of factors contributing to its instability.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I finally get around to renaming our general. I believe the vote was two for leading a stack and one for settling him, so he's waiting for the army to roll around before marching on the Huns.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Meanwhile, the Aztecs built Stonehenge! Damn them! I guess this is what happens when you focus on military to the exclusion of long-term economy.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I'm currently just researching the few prehistoric techs that are left.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

We finally find the Maori!
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Oh dear, I forgot to build a Riding School in MP4.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Meanwhile, Naghualism has spread to all our cities except the Christian Aberpanapopuma. We'll have to re-educate them someday.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The big army is ready to head east, but it's going to be a long march. You know, it feels a lot smaller after taking on Persia. Probably because it is smaller. We'll build some more troops while it' marching east.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

stabs likes his odds and decides to attack a Neanderthal sitting on a village.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

That's a lot of Atlatlists.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

We research Falconry, which is an important prerequisite for Aristocracy. Obviously. It also lets us use some of the birds we've been capturing.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

It also allows us to upgrade our hunters into rangers.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Aqizzar's Galley is exploring the east. This is a new Brazilian city. It also spots another city further to the east, but all my screenshots of that one got screwed up.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Portable Shelters aren't really notable except as a prerequisite for Trade, a much more useful tech.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

There's the Maori capital! It's built in a swamp, just like ours! Except ours was on a swampy island and this one is just in a swamp.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Aqizzar's Galley continues to head east.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

It appears there's a barbarian city built on those bison. Wait, did I already note that? It's been so long that I've forgotten.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I've been keeping a Hunnic hunter trapped with two archers for a while now. It didn't really serve any purpose, either, I just forgot about them. Now the Huns are trying to save him.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

You may have noticed that we've somehow encountered the Cherokee Empire this turn. I think it's from Aqizzar's Galley encountering their culture(You can also see the third Brazilian city there).
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

And then we research Harpoon Making. This is the last prehistoric technology in the tech tree. Where will we go from here?
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

By the way, the Cherokee just took that previously barbarian city we found.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Anyway, here's the tech tree. What should we research? I can't be arsed to detail everything, but if you're curious about a tech you can ask me what it does.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

You'll get a new world map in the next update, I promise!

Maybe I'm missing something... but is Board Games a useless tech? It doesn't look like it unlocks any buildings/units, nor does it look like a prereq for any other techs...

Also: Yay, this isn't dead!

It's not useless. We can play Scrabble.

Wait, have we researched Alphabet yet? If not, Scrabble's still a no-go.

See, Boksi?! This is what happens when you don't update for months! I don't even know what board games we can play!  :P
