[Heron TSG]

In a game of mine, most of the world advanced with me. Montezuma refused to do anything except flood the entire continent with Macemen and Axemen. my three units of Navy Seals had a good time with that; they'd repel 20 or 30 attacks per round while traveling across the continent that only Montezuma inhabited. The continent was literally coated in medieval soldiers, sometimes five or six per tile. Near cities, stacks reach upwards of two dozen units. Only one of my units died from slow attrition, the others just waltzed right into each of the Aztec cities one by one.

No real wonders left until we hit the Industrial Age, really.  We're on the cusp of the Renaissance, and unless I plough research into Nationalism (which I'm not too keen on spending on just yet) we don't have another Wonder for probably two hundred years.  Right now I'm beelining for Liberalism before the Germans or the Russians get it and maybe the Printing Press too, then burning my way through to Astronomy for the observatory research bonuses and Galleons, which I'll need for any cross-ocean trade and colonisation.  I'm at about 1420 at the moment, and probably will play through until the end of the century or the next change in gameplay (possibly Astronomy) before the next write-up.

To be fair, most of your rivals are squished together and small. China would probably be pretty easy to take, as would Spain. Of course if you take Spain, everybody else will hate you, so it's a tradeoff.

Liberalism is one of the most important techs in the game. It's right up there with Flight and Chemistry. Assuming you have a ton of cottages everywhere like you're supposed to, Free Speech will make you a ton of cash. That's not even getting into the free tech for researching it first which you probably won't get or the other civic you get, which I can't remember what it is.

Hehe, so you're like the third world all by yourself - stupidly large, with a government hated by all, low living standards, and negligible in international trade, but that's ok you've got money

Now you must go and conquer the rest of the world ! I can't wait for the next update.

[Pwnzerfaust]

Love this LP so far. Hope a.nother update is imminent.

[EuchreJack]

Indeed, I have an important paper to write.  I need this to distract me with its awesomeness!  Please!   

[Iituem]

Arr, t'has been Christmas and so updates have been slowed.  Writing a D&D adventure module at the moment, but I'll make sure to take time tonight to work on the next update.

[Pwnzerfaust]

So is this dead, then?
