They at war with us (I don't know why?) The Carths are a Republic, with 265 gold, Feud. And I wouldn't consider them as a threat, so peace, war, steal, trade, none.

Its up to you!

they cities, you have 3 days-

Could it be possible to post a map of their lands ????

Please

The carths are near tp our "middle island" area of cities. They also have an abundant supply of NON units via barbarians on thier lands. If we were to attack them we would have to stop short of acctually aquiring a city (which is good for republic anyway) to keep the NON units flowing

Just some food for thought...My vote: Trade with them to keep them content, Make peace and buy lots of barb units for NON status. Then "remind" them of thier past transgressions when we have a huge army of those NON's

Let's go bribe some NONE units! Best way to provide homeland defense in representative govt...

Here is a great shot of the lands from the 1000 save file.

Where there is no alternative outlet, our valuable pricey goods will go their way. However, this eventuality has not presented itself yet, so we don't need to sully ourselves with their lesser coinage just yet, Chinese and Japanese money being far more desirable.

Bribing Barb units to get "NONES". Amazing. It's depressing to realize how many tricks I never thought of on my own!

If we had all gotten together for these Democracy "groupthink" games a couple years ago, I'd be a far better player now!

the carthaginian threat -->

make peace and bombard them with caravans and harvest NON barbs.

(I intend to send a trireme to that region for transport of caravans/NON-units...)

looks like we need even more dips. someone remind me, did we decide to only build Dips this game?

Hydey · October 23, 2002, 07:44

No it was dips and vans

JCP · October 23, 2002, 13:34

Make peace, and trade only when not another demand !

mrboo123 · October 23, 2002, 17:42

Poll is closed, and we want peace, and trade with them for Feud.

16 of our 20 cities are building Dips or Caravans. I've never played a game like that! I usually have Marketplaces and Libraries everywhere by now, and Engineers running around.

It's not "worse", but it certainly is "different".

I'm learning a lot!

We need Leo's for a good defense of our ciies by muskets.
Then, I think we may build marketplace, libraries and aqueducs, so we can grow with Prez celebration
