The Japanese capital, Kyoto, was captured that very turn. By 2023, I was satisfied that the invasion force was ready - I declared war, unperturbed by Tokugawa’s accusations of treachery. I expect the city - when it comes out of resistance - will make a significant contribution to my economy, as it has two fish resources and pearls.įor the ten-or-so turns leading up to this point, I had been amassing troops off the coast of Japan (in readiness for war). A second Battleship is on the way, which - together with the six Destroyers and one Carrier I already have - should give me a good chance of beating Siam in a late-game battle for naval supremacy.Īlmaty fell two turns later. My navy became significantly more powerful when I built my first Battleship in 2020 - the same year in which I made peace with the remnants of the Songhai civilization.
They can now upgrade units at half the normal cost.
The Siamese, who, given the show of strength at their borders, appear to have discovered that technology long ago, completed construction of the Pentagon World Wonder in the same turn. I gained the secrets of Electronics in 2019 I can now build Mechanized Infantry (a fast and powerful armored unit). (There used to be four more cities, but they were razed.) The remains of the Roman empire, which is now entirely under my control. To borrow a phrase from hip hop legends The Roots: “It don’t feel right.” I didn’t just beat them at chess or table tennis I annihilated their entire civilization, mercilessly razing some cities while forcing my rule upon others. The civility and respect with which defeated civilizations concede continues to baffle me. Caesar was slightly less courteous in defeat than Hiawatha (Iroquois) or Alexander (Greeks), but he still had the grace to congratulate me. The pathetic flame of the Roman empire was finally extinguished in 2018 - the turn in which I razed their last city, a small outpost town called Arretium. Any attempts to make inroads must be made via naval, air, or amphibious assault. Almaty makes for a difficult capture, however, because it is surrounded entirely by water. My enemy is effectively Ramkhamhaeng’s friend, and I’d rather not risk a Siam-Almaty alliance. Having steered clear of Almaty since accidentally sparking a permanent war with the city-state some hundred years prior, I finally moved in to attack in 2016.
