Well, im going to be whipping knights during my golden age. Hoping to have a sizeable stack ready to go for the "fun" teching towards Cavalry and sending galleys to Scooter so he can hopefully defend against Mjmd.

Apparently Mjmd/Charriu have Alphabet soooo i took a look at how far behind i am.

Other than paper/education with charriu, and Paper, printing press with Mjmd (and the astro line) Im basically ahead of them. I got construction-engineering back to back and ill have gunpowder EOT. Knight count is upto 8 so far. I should have Military tradition in 12t or so. Give or take a turn or two. Depends on how heavily i whip. I want a nice knight stack to use as a deterrent from Mjmd till i can get a big enough stack of knights/cuirs to actually roll him over. Scooter im not worried about atm, as im hoping he is more pissed at Mjmd still or maybe even Charriu for his non-whipping of anything military status that he has had the Entire game.

Bing is probably the biggest wild card if he can catch up in tech. I really Really hope to be able to hit Mjmd's soft underbelly, but to do so i think ill have to come up with a crafty way of doing so. Maybe wait for his peace treaty and ask for a distraction and hope that that carrys his galleons/units away? He has a fresh pike in a border city, but it hasnt fortified yet. Im assuming he will have a counter stack/decent defenses if i went there now. Best to wait a couple turns. Ill scout for an opportunity though.

Well it was looking true until Charriu decided to screw everyone but Mjmd.

refused to contribute to taking mjmd down a notch. (wouldnt whip) IF he had whipped, he stood to take a good chunk of Mjmd land, while Mjmd would have focused on me. But he uh, didnt. So any chance of anyone else but mjmd winning basically became 0. Not to mention at least 2 other times Charriu kinda failed us. (not grabbing the music artist, not defending himself when he KNEW AND AGREED to a blockade/no openborders with mjmd in advance... and then lost a city over it)

Charriu had a very VERY different mindset going into this pitboss i feel. Maybe on a much larger map, or a different style PB he would have enjoyed playing. I think swapping Charriu with almost anyone would have made the dogpile a much easily endeavor.

That being said, still love playing with him just ... wish i had neighbored him.

That's probably because this PB was a continuation of PB67. That could have been a great PB, but apparently everybody else had a very VERY different mindset going into PB67. I stayed in this game mainly so that I can at least play one diplo game even if this setup was inferior.
