My first completed game

[CiverDan]

I finally completed 1 game...

2 humans, tiny map pangea, elimination Simul.

I was Iroqouis, opp was America. Game didn't get beyond ancient times before I won. Opp was kinda boxed in any only had room for 3 decent cities while I was able to expand away from him but I was around lots of mountains so it was tough to defend w/o going broke. He had easy Iron access, while I had to go a long way to find Iron (which I never hooked up) and more importantly, Horses. He massed about 5 or 6 Swords before I could hook up Horses but I was smart enough to wall my cities with 3+spears and I held him back. But I had nothing to attack with other than Archers, so I could stop him from pillaging, esp with all teh mountains. I finally got Horse hooked up a killed a few swords with MW's and got my GA. What saved me ultimately was one city at my border toward a corner that was connected culturally to his core but not too close to it. I got lucky when I attacked it with an acher and won the game when it turned out he only had 1 spear guarding it.

Congrats on your first victory CiverDan!

Was your game via Internet or LAN?

I too play as the Iroqouis as my civilization of choice (of course I change their name to "Wyandot")

[CiverDan]

It was a net game believe it or not and I chose random and got Iroqouis
