Ill be around in 8 hours when i get up around 21 gmt
if anyone wants a game for a few hours
did i see a post some where about small maps and land games saying that trade is not needed ? Peace of advice not sure whether you know or not. TRADE is everything on a small map cannons or muskets or cavalry vs ancient units ends up only one way. VERY VERY hard to win a game with ancient units i havent dont that since the GL tourney of about 18 months ago. if it is pure land with no choke points then knights may have some use.
But generally phalanx are far too strong. Which is kinda sad. Hmm wonder how a small map would be with no phalanx or legions. (-:

 Hey it was a real classic game..... Faded played a superb blocking game until he was to be ready to attack.... I was horrified when my massed units game across a line of forts, and I had to back off and wait for reinforcememts.... THEN I saw a load of Battles, saw his Land did not have the Prod mine did, and decided an attrition game could be in my favour, so I sacrificed many units to take a fort - and he lost many taking it back .... But all the time I had a single longship (SOLS were excluding and there was no ther sea troop transport available to me) so I stacked Battles with the single longship, and cut a Path to a city yon side of his forts, which was a MONO city... I held that, with Battles, as he sacrificed every unit to try and take it back... BUT I still had a load of units infront of his forts... So when he tried to counter against the Battleship occupation, I found a weak point in his forts and took another city which I quickly nine stacked, and was ready with three more nine stacks to advance.... A Superb tactical game, which could easily of gone either way... There were no stealth units, no Settlers, no sea transporters, it really taxed the brain, but I learned much... Thanks Faded for a great game!

Ahh yes. I had only 4700 production cause of my pennisula and cause of excluded settlers. And I made use of what mountains I had..but alas, the city that had them was just too scattered and we were too dependant on jungles for production.
Ya orignally I was going into that Swamp to fight it out. Then my Spy made the rounds to your cities, I saw you were clearly making more men then I was. So I decided that row of moutains was a perfect spot, and it most definately delayed my death for 60 turns . You orignally did try to breakthrough at the southern most one. But lost 30 men when you took it, and my counter attack was too much, so I was able to take er back.
But the landings were a good move damn you.
Also, 3 more turns you basterd I would of had Machine Gunners I would have attacked your men in the swamps with better troops and probably pushed you back. But that didnt happen, so give credit for hitting me where it hurt (only monopoly city)

I am still here, will be back in earnest by the end of March.
I will try to get a game on Saturday, but having cpu probs at home right now. Will bring my cpu in to work tomorrow and let the technicians have a look at it for me.
Seems like there is so much activity, I don't want to miss out too much.
