Quote:1. is to keep somehow kytra alive and get HA which have a natural 40% against those pesky units, get vision on kytra and play zone defence .
So I think this is the only viable thing to do in my fight against the mighty Sidar.Fortunately the best units which he has are very weak in fighting cities and but i expect like in 2-3 turns to apear denmora which has time to get to 5 experience and ahs a huge bonust against hero and melee so he can snipe a unit of mine on front city near every turn,depends how bad get wounded) and the aeron chosen unit is a danger for my hero, the other units are dangerous just outside the city .
So i need to still improve land so I can get a double forest fawn on the forest to prevent sniping those unit and get 1-2 wariours with hill defence ,but I will try to finish mining unforested hills till then and i think on forest with 60 defence I am ok.
Long term plan is still to get rathas but thats like 20-30 turns time at least and that with the help of GA and not upgrading units, but I dont htink thtat is not an option.
Here are some pictures from this turn
Yeah, my demos look good compared to others but alot of it is because of this :
But I can tell to other, hey guys i do over 50 culture turn, because of reliquary and dancing bear and monuments and i bearly have over 50 gold at max tax, becasue you know is CTon this.
The good news that dave accepted peace.so no stack of wariours wanting to atack me.I need some peace turn to realy build this emipre.

Nothing much happened besides that auro decided to raze the barb city which was near him, I wanted to do same thing to gain some experience and gold but he was faster and 'stole' from me the experience as well the gold i supsoe somewere between 10-20 gold, but every coin counts.
becasue turn 100 passed Lets talk this update about odds of winning for my chalengers , today dave as he has the lowest odds like 1% even lower, he got atacked even lost his capitol took back and he doesnt have nothing in his sleeve(i think).., and his demos are terible, but with hsi low odds he has a huge impact on the game  , practicaly with his gifts I was stoped to have a second capitol (there are not many great city sites on map) so yeah even loosing you can 'decide the outcome big time. I seen he didnt update for a while so maybe he is a litle checked out.

ARGH I knew I forgot something, I captured 1 elphant and was thinking to have a very city defender and gues what i forgot to declare nationality and someone jumped and killit.    . So i started to do mistakes and Auro felt the blooood so he didnt return my offer so i have to start planning for turn 111 when the peace will be ending .Unfortunately is not easy as my empire is very long, luckily is not very expensive to get units but expensive as expenses so i will build anothe 10-12 wariours to the 19 i have so my cost will be huge but is better then losing cities.

Netx turn i need to decide if i go indeed for Styrup or go for pristhood. For a while I was very sure that Styrup is the way , but now not that sure anymore, becasue every city needs a stable to get HA build and to upgrade my super wariour is 126 piece and ,but still 3 moves or 4 and getting the 40% bonus is huge...
Monks can be build everywere and i have already a temple of leaves in capitol so upgrading them to pols is very easy , and POLs give me free meat shield as tiggers and the tech is cheaper and is on my way to better units....
Very har decision, and to make it easier i have already 2 fawns which can be satyrs and 2 more very close to get that level so i can have some 4-5 units with hight mobility which can destroy anithing.
Another bad news which I found is that gosths after atack remain uncovered but next turn can go cover again...,I knew he user superghost and i was happy but looks llike he can cloack him again.....
Strange isnt it ,all the rest are under auro although Auro lost 3 cities. I dont know what bob is doing, pehaps agrocracy is not that good with the nerf got, and perhaps he need more happy .
I think Bob has hunting as his capitol grew to 11.

Thinking about game I feel a litle guilty because I atacked Auro , I should just took the barb city kill those units and propose peace...But I felt he was to advanced and that i could get his capitol so I pressed on. Right now i would have been far better without that war with more cities better output, and not producing warriours.But again If Auro would have come after me anyway? Good I dont know till the game is over.

Someone got a great scientist, and i think is bob but i dont know why i was informed is him as i see his capitol in top 5, well perhaps i must see the city were he got it.
Last time we talked about the guy with the lower chanses to win(dave 1%) lets talk about the one with highest ones and that is :
BOB of amurites , the good boy as he said in the actual state of game has like 60% to win
As you see he has 1 city less and is catching up in food and production and for him there are years of peace in front of him not like some poor dude I know.
What baffles me is his low GNP
I think he didnt build any cotages and the aristofarms are kind of weak on this map, perhps he didnt build the dereptus as well , I dont have a road conection and i am not in hury to get one becasue i am 99% he will not OB with me.
As I said I am 95% he got 3 GS till now, first was used to bulb kote, second was used for a bulb as well, on alteration, he doesnt have writing so will see if he buls something or not.
Every turn which pases his chanses are bigger and bigger and i see 3 mana nodes which he can get , with 3 from palace and aprentice(is that counted when adepts get build) there he has 8 experience ones 2 experience shy for mages.
map is big so there he ahs room for another 10 cities easily, but there is a problem as the cities are very expensive and 20% from aristo is not doing alot, for example if i take my farest city i pay right now 5,20 on maintenance with aristo i would pay like 12 so 7 gold deficit so you need 4 farms just to pay that ...,so 4 citezen working for nothing...

Silly me i was wondering why he didnt build the super hero yet and the answer is very easy if i use litle my head.
OF COURSE he didnt built it in capitol becasue there is the only place were has HL necesary for gosths so he is building the dude in Latito(why i didnt razed that mega city?)so he finished Poison turn 103 i think and has like 18 production maybe some forest chops so we might seen the DUDE in the log next turn or the turn after depends on overflow and choping....,while in capitol more gosth are produced....

Still no denmora defenetly expecting him next turn.
And in the end i decided to go for pristhood as i think beeing able to build them everywere and not needing an expensive stable is the way to go.
Demos :
At full research I am prety dominant.
About defence will talk more latter.

This happened :
And the cost are getting realy crazy :
Thats the price if I play like an AI everi city gets at lest 2 wariours and capitol will get 4 , becasue he ahs 2 free kills from super hero and ghosths and 2 others will rezist i recon at 4-5 ghosts, I will get the spyder in that area as well.

Lats turn turn of peace.Looks like Auro gain no points so he got no new techs . He got some points 2-3 turns ago so he might have already HBR or BW but if gets bronze for free why spent beaker and mobility makes his unist insane. 2 anywere+ 3/4 oh well i got at least 2 defenders in every city and most important got 3 lets hope I dont get in troble in the one with 2 as another defender will be added next turn.
Sharks are circling around me :
I bet there are 2-3 more ghosth as well. I expect a declaration of war next turn so he can move units inside my borders.
