What's the record for amount of capitals conquered in a game? You're now at 4 out of 5...

There was a game here where Krill successfully killed everyone. There were six players total so he went 5 out of 5. People should have conceded at 2 out of 5 though...

Forgive me if I'm misreading and you already know this, but in case you don't, you can hold down SHIFT when hovering to see this. It'll break down odds of remaining HP for the defender like it already shows for the attacker. I consult this often to see if it looks like I can weaken a stronger unit enough to finish it with a second unit, or if I'm risking a flawless loss.
 Thanks.
I either didn't know about the "Shift" trick or I'd forgotten about it. I've been playing this game for long enough that I've gotten pretty good at eyeballing the expected outcome but it would be handy to have an actual breakdown available for future use.

Only 3 out of 5 so far. I haven't had to recapture my own (yet). 
I'm curious about the most number of workers ganked (and kept) in a single game though.  I think I'm up there with 9 captured and kept (plus one that was captured and then destroyed by the barbs after I'd missed the fact that there was a new built axe in the city). I've got 12 workers right now but the only two I've built are the ones I built as my opening builds.

Last turn I resettled the border city that Pindicator razed. This turn I captured another city from Commodore.
In 2t Pindicator gets Cavalry. This could get messy.

Yeah, PBEM4V was the full conquest game where I took all 5 capitals. That involved tanks versus muskets and F9 was broken so doesn't fell like it counts. All the other games feel like great achievements.

I got 11 capitals in PB59. But that was out of 25, so as a proportion is actually not that impressive.

Pindicator is moving a solid looking naval task force towards me in the outer sea. 1 Frigate, 6 privateers, and 5 galleons. I've got 16 units in the only city he can reach so he can't take it in one shot and I doubt he's got 15 amphibious hitters . If he unloads.....Barrage 3 cats are FUN!
He'll have Mil Trad at the end of his next turn so I'm expecting a whipping spree followed by invasion.
