Godinex I, The Fair… The Saint…

He wins the war against Rome. His Loyalties troops march over the bloodiest empire and destroyed ever thread they throw.
The hand of God guide his armies and one by one the cities fall:
Fist Rome... Captured, Then Veiji.... Captured later Hippoplegius… Destroyed.
And in the middle of the empire the Magellan’s Voyage was constructed, the Smith Trading Company Founded and the Isaac Newton’s University was Captured.
Our mighty armies defeated 9 cavalry, 6 Legionary, 1 Long Bowman, 1 Archer, 3 Pike men, 3 spearmen… and the blood of our casualties make rise the furor of the Prophet.
22 Musketmen, 14 Riflemen, 23 Cavalry are now our army.

Tremble infidels, Temples builded in Rome, and in GodiFaraway. All the invasions stopped, Steam Power and Communism changed in favour of peace... But the leader, Godinex I once again was rapted and is in front of the Lord... His time is Up and the angels escort Him to the Bed. In this place a beatiful rose garden appear and now is site of devotion... but the saint will be back

Sovy Kurosei · March 23, 2002, 00:21

Do not fear Godinex, the Romans shall fall soon, they shall...

We shall not faulter, upon thy path towards the battlements against evil. We shall not retreat, but march forth.

We shall not fall, our ranks strong in numbers and cause. We will continue onwards til our enemy is destroyed.

Journier · March 23, 2002, 00:26

sweet move guys

u just hurt the romans hard :/

And if u guys didnt know u cant draft military in less then size 7 cities... i thoought someone was asking about that...

and also for every draft u do in the city 1 unhappy guy is created for 10 turns(20 turns) not sure but i think its 10.

The corruption is going to be sooo bad

Sovy Kurosei · March 23, 2002, 00:26

Oh, yeah, Godinex, you did pretty good. Considering how overly prepared the Romans were, they put up one heck of a fight.

But, if my plan works out right, then I can snag us most of the Coastal North African Cities.

BTW, we gotta take the French out for ourselves. Otherwise, the Iroquis is going to get some free cities for themselves...

And if my plan doesn't go as well, I'll start prepping up the assault against the French, and probably go with the peaceful route for a change...

Sovy Kurosei · March 23, 2002, 00:27

Yeah, I am wondering if I can start a revolution soon... Time to make our pick, will it be Communism, or Democracy?

Journier · March 23, 2002, 00:30

heh.. u guys i hope will build the forbidden city wonder somewhere on other side of empire :/ either in east asia (i think best choice) OR try to build it in america where corruption is going to slow it down to taking 200 turns atliest :/

Journier · March 23, 2002, 00:33

go with commi less corruption "i heard"

And the corrution in the game right now makes 90% of the cities u own worthless.

go to commie === easy war, better production.less corruption
plus u will free up an easy 120 gold (since thats how much it costs to have an army in republic 1 gold a unit :/

Sovy Kurosei · March 23, 2002, 00:42

Yeah, I might go with Communism. It screws up the Core cities, but at least I can do something with the fringe cities we have.

Anyways, we only have a handful of Core cities to really play around with...

If I get a hero, I'll build the Forbidden Palace in East Asia. It has been sorta discussed before. Just incase we don't plan on taking out the Iroquis, we at least have the offensive to take out China and India.

Sovy Kurosei · March 23, 2002, 00:43

I just gotta get a few more OK's from people before the Switch can take place.

Dangit, wouldn't mind being a religious civ now.

godinex · March 23, 2002, 00:46

Damm! I can´t upload the zip file!

The great leader of many battles Eduard whou rise under the command of Godinex says: "Godinex is the Hand of God in the Earth, his heart in battle is like a fire sea and his love for good is like sky, infinite and deep".
Edward came to Rhodes and in memory of the Saint eriged the most beatiful city of the world in the place where Godinex was rapted the first time. He named it the Forbbiden Palace and the people change they lives in the name of the Saint.
Godinex I Lives, And one day will come to rule the empire forever

Rotten999 · March 23, 2002, 00:48

I can never tell if Journier is being sarcastic or not.

He's like the friend who keeps tapping on the car window and shouting advice when you're in the back seat with a woman.

Not like I don't need the advice, of course.

What I like about succession game is the different personalities, and the ensuing chaos. If we all got on the same page it would be too dull.

Anyway, I wouldn't mind adding him to our little family. The more the merrier.

Just accept the fact that the next guy might undo everything you did.

Some of our corruption pit cities have wonders, so they're not ALL worthless, maybe only 85%.

With our reputation as it is, Communism seems the better choice. I don't anticipate a peaceful climate lasting.

godinex · March 23, 2002, 00:51

No needed Comunism... We now have FP.
And Know Steam Power and Comunnism... but pay 76 GPT at the Romans... the goog Thing, speacly for Kuro is if we pay 120 GPT to the Romans they will gave to us the Industrialization and then will declare war until the nex revolution.

Here is the Ziop File.. Hope

Rotten999 · March 23, 2002, 00:52

We got the forbidden palace up!

Godinex, you rule.

godinex · March 23, 2002, 00:53

Ah! and we receivr 400 GPT, need 12 turns to learn electricity, 85% of the cities just love Me and are celebrating my Birth Day...
I´m The Hand Of God.

godinex · March 23, 2002, 00:56

One question... We already get our golden age?...

godinex · March 23, 2002, 00:59

Other things tahat I forgot...
1. The next week I return ... I forgot what day is net to the wednesday... bueno, el Jueves Santo.

godinex · March 23, 2002, 01:03

Good Nigth everybody. I return to my house until the Thursday (Or wathever spell it!) so... Good By, wait for the return of the Prophet.

Sovy Kurosei · March 23, 2002, 01:36

Rhodes? Rhodes? Where the HECK is Rhodes?

Yeah, we already got our Golden Age, BTW...

I'll play the game tonight. Judging the Gold Per Turn ratio, I say we are off to a pretty good start now

Anyways, I got an empire to conquer!

Journier · March 23, 2002, 02:51

sweet.

heh...

Im sometimes being sarcastic... and sometimes completely serious ur choice to decide which

))

When can i get into the game? after everyones put in there next turn?
heh

Sovy Kurosei · March 23, 2002, 04:30

Rome is our 'female dog' now

1665 AD: We have restarted our tech research, and began looking up Electricity. As well as repositioning our forces, ever since we have heard of this 'Roman Aggression' and build up of their forces. Kurosei the VII decides against a revolt at this time, but urges people to join the Communist cause.

1670 AD: Toosh pah... More Troop Movements...

1675 AD: Sovy Kurosei formally informs all college grads to please stop loitering infront of the Library... Too many old grumpy people are complaining on how many facts they are recieving daily is much too difficult to comprehend

1680 AD: A speech was held by the Godinex and Rotten Government Co-operation League that they will formally split up into two distinctive parties. When asked why to free up such a co-ilition, a reply was given by the Rotten Foundation Represenetive.

"We have finally concluded that after months of squabling amongst each others, we began to form into two distinctive groups. Eventually, it was advised that we split our party up into two seperate entities,"

No Comment was given on what actually fractured the group, although inside sources say that it all came down to the Chocolate Glazed or Jelly Filled donuts during breaks in the Party Lounge.

1685 AD: Recieved some disturbing news. The Iroquis threatened us, that if we did not hand them 31 Gold Coins, and some other thing, they would declare war on us.

I refused.

Stupid Iroquis Leader backed the heck off...

1690 AD: Launched attack against Rome. Plans went as schedule as Palmyra fell and Neapolis fell. Landed troops on shores of Pompeii and Cumae. Hispalis landing force diverted to Pompeii.

1695 AD: The cities of Pompei and Cumae fall. Neapolis taken by the Romans again.

1700 AD: I took Neapolis back.

1705 AD: Romans took Neapolis back.

1710 AD: I took Neapolis back. Got sick and tired of playing tag, so I took Syracuse and Caesaraugusta. Caesaraugusta is renamed to 'Stupid Romans' to represent how stupid that long named Roman city is because of its long and difficult to pronounce name.

1715 AD: Finally took Hispolis. Rest of the units are up to Rotten's care.

In total, I have taken 7 cities. I feel proud of myself.

But this is how the plan worked.

The Romans had two resources of horsies for themselves, at the cities of Palmyra and Pompeii. As well, Pompeii had the Coal and Iron Ore resources. These are the only Coal and Iron ore resources that were readily available to the Romans.

So, when Pompeii and Palmyra fell, the Romans were SOL on producing Cavalry.

Right now, I am experiencing very little Cavalry resistence from the Romans.

Thus, that was my big plan, which worked out alright

Not to mention, we have taken out nearly EVERY SINGLE Roman Core city. Byzantium and Antium are the only real Core Cities that I can name... And maybe Brundisium.

Heheheheh... This is to make up for my initially failed assault against Rome last turn

And Rotten, if you get the chance, try to negotiate with the Romans on getting Tarentum ( City in the North England Isle area as well as Eburacum ( City on South America ) And Pisae ( Another City on South America ).

This should hopefully secure our influence moreso on South America. Until we get Cavalry their to clean up the 'French'

Rotten, can you also speed build Pergamon's Temple...

*Smirks as he starts thinking about the Conquest of Germany

*

Oh, yeah, we got some Greeks wandering through our lands... Right now, its nearby CivTurkey, and the Greeks have a Hopolite, escorting a Settlers. So, if you want some free workers, and maybe take out the

Sovy Kurosei · March 23, 2002, 04:43

Plus, a screenshot to go with it

Rotten, a note of caution.

The offensive in North Africa is running low on steam, so be careful. If a city gets captured, just send a Cavalry unit to recapture it ( Like in Neapolis ).

I am hoping the Romans don't have a serious trade agreement with the Germans with horses though...

Give the Romans your best

Journier · March 23, 2002, 05:19

:/ see if u can get techs for there surrender. teeheh.

Sovy Kurosei · March 23, 2002, 05:36

Yeah, their is also the Zulu's that need to be conquered...

*Sighs* Who here remembers our first encounter with the Zulu's?

Oh, boy oh, the Iroquis have watched and study what made the Zulu's nearly extinct once... Probably the reason why their threats are not real

Sovy Kurosei · March 23, 2002, 05:41

Hey Journier, do the Zulu's get absorbed by the Germans in the 1900's?

Rotten999 · March 23, 2002, 08:54

I thought we were going to leave some of Rome as a buffer state (Vichy Rome?) but I suppose that's out the window.

Do we want to jump into war with Germany? Will we have any choice in the matter?

Remember when Civman wanted about 40 turns of peace in a row. That way things are going, we may not get 40 non-consecutive peaceful turns before the end of the game.

civman2000 · March 23, 2002, 09:55

make peace for colonies in s. america, britain, maybe siberia too if we can get them...AND EVERY TECH WE'RE BEHIND!...then either stay at peace for a while or go commie and attack france or romans again to wipe them out...only problem with communism is the horrible science and pop rushing...journier, you can go between me and godinex, but the game is starting to get pretty full...

ps: I thought democracy had the lowest corruption, with "minimal"...in the editor that is the lowest choice...

civman2000 · March 23, 2002, 09:56

That may be a new record...about 40 new posts overnight, all of which i missed!

civman2000 · March 23, 2002, 09:59

if after that we fall further behind in tech, the only way to catch up might be quick 10-turn wars where we use our momentum advantage in starting them to be able to say we won, and in payment get tech...
