Not a bad showing, I think. That was on the hard side for Monarch, no doubt about it. I'm sure you could win some Monarch games with that kind of showing.

Hi,

regarding a remark in your conclusion:

Quote:Every game, I vow to build more military, but I never do, and it usually bites me.
I know exactly how you feel! lol I vowed the same since playing my first game of Civ 3, but it needed some hard lessons with CIV for me to do it and actually build more military... rolleye Shows how the AI has been improved, at least in some ways.

Anyway, hope to see you next Adventure!

One nice thing about a spiritual civ is that once you get Nationalism, you can afford to run "builder" levels of military, since at a moment's notice you can swap over to Nationalism civic and draft up an insta-defense, with minimal consequences (compared to CivIII at least).

If you've been a good builder and are thus cranking culture, you'll have wide enough borders to draft mutiple times before enemy stacks readh you.

Thanks. I did learn quite a bit here. Most specifically, the power of the whip. I believe it was in your report where you talked about the power of the whip (and I saw it in some other reports too) but this was really the first game that I used it to this much effect.

I'll add my support for the whip also; this game was the first I actually settled a mere fishing village. Up until I had to abandon it, it was turning into a very functional city, using nothing but slave labour.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: I think we need to run an Oasis map sometime so you can understand the true power of whipping.
