![]() That unit probably has a general and leadership by now which will augment the artillery and the spies. ![]() A smart leader will use his oldest infantry army which used to be a hoplite. I later went back, canceled the space station and won an economic victory and repeated for a cultural victory.įor domination I simply built stacks of artillery armies (about ten to twelve) which I parked next to cities along with two modern infantry armies and one spy ring in the same square. Eternal Kombat proved an easy tech victory however, while building the pieces of the space station, I saved my game. And even then I only did that for the domination victory and even then I only attacked capitols (all you need is capitols for Domination).Īpocalypse proved an easy domination victory. You will eventually be able to culture flip cities, but I never took over cities by force until I was so rich and dominant that I couldn’t be stopped. > Hang on to the original three cities, do not settle new cities. > Prioritise population growth or production Remember your walls will defend them from a culture flip. In the meantime build your wonders in your cities who’s borders are not competing with enemies'. > Goal: Do not let your most outward city get too cultural until you can defend a new territory easily (IOW: Not 'til you have the economy to rush the construction of walls). Deity attackers rarely if ever defeated my modern infantry (but they did beat them up so have at least two armies in each city) Then your hoplites will be modern infantry with all the perks they gained from defending for centuries. > Goal: Get to combustion and mass production BEFORE you build Shakespeare’s Workshop. ![]() > Goal: Get to Masonry first so that you get a free wall in your capitol You should just use common sense to build what you build but here are some important things I picked up Okay so you're discovering tech and what not and the enemy is too dumb and spread thin to attack your hoplites in stacks, now what? Even on deity the AI seems to be uninterested in finding Atlantis and in this hectic mode I even found that Cambodian artifact on an island. Build a galleon as soon as you can and get to Atlantis. This is exactly why the AI builds the space station so fast in other scenarios or maps: they are not fighting. You will likely be far ahead of the other societies earning perks for being first to discover things. The three cities they start you with are almost always in good positions for gold and production. My basic building strategy was: If it can be built in less than ten turns, build it if it can be rushed, rush it. If you do this correctly the population makes up for a lack of banks and markets and you will soon have the cash to rush items (like walls, build and rush the walls as soon as you can). I rushed the cultural building much later in the game. I never really built any troops except for one occasion where a hoplite army actually got defeated and needed replacement. Oh did I mention you should do this with the Greeks? Do this with the Greeks! The greeks have democracy which is like cheating it’s so good and a veteran hoplite army can defend against a tank army! I usually build a hoplite army in the three cities that the game starts you out with and then for the next hour I do nothing but build buildings for population and resources and science (with priority in that order). On these two scenarios everyone is fighting everyone giving you the benefit of only needing to defend yourself from the few warriors that make it through the land bridges. With everyone at war with everyone you can finally research and produce things without being out-paced by Isabella who somehow has a wonderful working relationship with everyone.Īnyway so yeah, Apocolypse and Eternal Kombat. Finally the AI has the same problems as you: Bismark at her door with Panzers and Moctezuma at her door with artillery. You see, with these scenarios the AI is at war with you, but the AI is also at war with everyone else. The deity achievements had previously made me very frustrated and angry, but that was all fixed with these scenarios. I played these two scenarios on Deity last night. May I direct your attention to two other scenarios: Apocalypse and Eternal Kombat. As you should have read in this forum, Beta Centauri is an excellent way to earn the “one city” achievement and the “twenty victories” achievement.
