Regoarrarr's incomplete Adventure 39

Okay I thought I'd report on my incomplete game. I didn't really stop for any particular reason - just kind of got bored of it. But I will share what I did. Unfortunately I don't really remember a whole lot, but I did take a few screenshots, and I will try to recreate a few things.

Obviously, I'm not very good at civ, so take this all with a pinch of smoke salt.

I founded in place and sent my warrior to the SW. He popped that hut on Turn 6 and...

Oops. Guess T-hawk was right!!! lol

Tech path went AH, Mining, BW, Pottery, Myst, Hunting, Writing, 1820 BC.

I sent my first settler to the north, settling Lahkama 1W of the ivory to get the copper. As in most games, Mehmed beat me to the cows. I don't think I did a very good job of corn sharing, though I tried some.

3rd city (Chichen Itza) went 1NW of the horses to the east., which I founded in 1920 BC.

I founded a "pink dot" of Uxmal near the southern ivories, hoping to post a stake in the ground, but then Mansa gave me the screwgie.

That would end up being a real thorn in my side.

I completed Aesthetics in 825 BC, which netted me Alpha, IW, Fishing and Sailing, Masonry and Archery. I set research to Currency, while I got Poly as a gift from Asoka and Math from Caesar for Aesthetics once he was willing to trade.

In 400 BC, I got Hinduism, which was huge as Mansa, Asoka and Ragnar were all Hindus. I converted, and I think Mansa converted all my cities with missionaries.

Currency came in and I was able to sell off a bunch of old techs for gold. Also, I got Monarchy from Caesar, Calendar from Asoka and then Mansa gave me Feudalism for free! I parlayed Feud and Currency to Ragnar for CoL and MC.

I ended up stopping at 1 AD. I'm not sure if I could give a cultural victory a shot but I figured that would be my only chance. The free artist was still available at Music, but all my cities had only the 1 religion - so I'm not sure how that might have worked. Maybe a better player than me could have done it.
