Kandros of the Clan - How many powers of 2 do you need?

[Krill]

Tok sneers at "Heroic" Grigori adventurers. And feeds them to his pet wolf.

[Krill]

Oh, WOW is the only way to describe this turn.

Straight forward battle, yes?

God damn it. Now I need to interrupt the settler build for another pair of warriors, bah.

Er, that warrior is a bit dangerous. Need to take it out now or a second basic warrior would easily be able to clean up even if I attacked and won later on. And it ain't like waiting is going to improve the situation for me. Wonder what my solution to this problem was?

At least I should be able to run away if I retreat and I should get some good XP if I win...

Holy shit. I can not remember the last time I got a none GG unit past 30XP, never mind 50...

Bah humbug I'm already paying unit support...

After ending turn:

Woohoo! RoK due eot t67 now. And GK is looking mightily attractive

Hmm, might pop out a pair of goblins form the capital after that warrior, actually...

[Krill]

So let's see, the map now is something like:

SL - (s) - Amelia
| (islands) |
(s) - Sedoa -me

limit Amelia in expansion space then remove her from the game and I will be in a very strong position until those raider HA start streaming across the border.

Highlight of last turn? Got a second wolf rider And I still got a goblin sitting at home hoping another wolf spawns. Now I just need to figure out what to tech after WotE. I'm thinking Festivals for FIN markets ought to be rather decent, then probably skip AH and go Education>CoL. Expect cities 4 and 5 to be settled by t73, and probably at about -25gpt, so 5 markets would be rather useful. Then I'd just have to figure out if Godking is worth a turn of anarchy...

oh well, that can wait to the weekend, even if we seem to have a rather good turn pace atm.

[NobleHelium]

You could have deleted that worker if you were complaining about unit support.

[Krill]

*sigh* Wish I had more time to think about this game. Just lost Tok defending against a warrior swarm, he killed only 3 warrior

[Krill]

I'll try to do a turn update tomorrow, but things are not looking amazing for us. OTOH, 14 turns behind the Illians because of Stasis, otherwise things wouldn't look quite so bad from the demo perspective.

[Krill]

Finished CoL 2 turns ago, revolted last turn, got AH this turn. Enjoy where the horses are...Sanitation is about 6 turns away with saving gold. Just need to become the locust now, but Serdoa probably has a good tech lead, Drama, Currency and must have some other junk in there, probably Sanitation as well...

[Ilios]

Possible PBEM X spoiler:

See Darrell, Krill shows us that the Clan can do commerce as well...

Nice n° 1 GNP spot!

[Krill]

I researched Sanitation the other turn, now I'm basically neck and neck with Serdoa for first in GNP, MFG and CY. He has a city or two more than me and a few more pop points, but I'm about to finnish another settler pair and warrens in cities 4 and 5. I also popped gold at hte capital last turn, which is stupidly lucky again.

That said, I don't really see how I can win this game against potentially 2 Raider civs, one of them being the Hippus. And I still need to kill Amelia (On that note, I'm potentially about 25 turns from Ogres now, maybe less as I spread religion and new cities come online with cheap markets). Only techs I'm considering deviating away from ogres for are KotE to get a Shaman or 4 out for haste, and HBR for wolf riders.
