Foriegn Minister's Report: Japanese in 1160AD

The Japs, our long time rivls, are at war with us, I think we should steal Feud. (the only tech that all 3 of them have that we don't) then make peace. What do you think?

mrboo123 · October 20, 2002, 10:48

They cities, you have 3 days-

Could you please post maps of Japanese lands?

Zedd · October 21, 2002, 02:01

I think it unlikely that we would see any form of attack from the japanese but we are a peacefull people IIRC so lets make peace. First steel techs of course

Don't steal techs if you don't need them! It only raises the cost of research!

If the ppl decide we NEED Feudalism, fine. If not, screw it.

Dont steal feud!!! If we dont have it we can build 10-shield musketeers/rifleman for the rest of the game.

READY!!

Well, after looking at my poster that came with game (tech. tree) we NEED Feud if we want to have Manufacting Plant (Feud. > Leadership > Tactics > Moblie Warfaire > Robotics) if we don't want to trade for it!

You mean build Warriors that will be upgraded to Musketeers then Riflemen, right? That's an interesting idea. Eventually, of course, we will be forced to get Feudalism because it will be the only left the game will offer us to research, but that would be a ways away.

So, we steal it only when we are forced to, and not a minute sooner.

or wait until we need Manfauting Plants, which we'll NEED to help with the Space Race.....

/me yawns at the japanese threat

-Jrabbit · October 21, 2002, 23:32

I strongly agree that there's no need to take Feudalism now.

Don't increase our tech costs more than necessary.
Wait until the time is right.

Japanese threat

steal Feudalism...? don't need it(yet) we now have 10shield warrior(=musketmen)...

Shade,

atawa · October 22, 2002, 13:18

Just remember to set at least 1 city to warriorbuilding when we do get it..

mrboo123 · October 23, 2002, 17:37

Poll is closed, and we want peace, but before that, stael Feud.

cavebear · October 23, 2002, 20:04

Will our Warriors actually upgrade to Musketeers if we don't have all the intermediate units (like Pikesmen)? I so seldom skip any techs that I'm not sure.

mrboo123 · October 23, 2002, 20:36

Sometimes it dose, sometimes it dosen't.

cavebear · October 23, 2002, 22:06

Given that the game is a computer program, I suspect they either always will or always won't.

yes they will...I use this trick quite often( I never had any use for pikemen...always came (to) late in my games)

I agree with military master Shade.
