Nice win again, and thanks, you are definitely helping me improve, today I played an Emperor game badly, and still won :) despite not having played for about 4 weeks.
Can you explain more about the score pumping you were describing in the vid, how does gifting cites back to vassals and giving them techs help the score ?
Hi TMIT great job, very educational games. One question: When you click once on one of your cities the place where units&buildings are listed is very large. I mean you can see all the units in the same line. But mine is like 5 or 6 in a row and it's too narrow to have them all in one line. How can I do mine like yours?
I think I need to take a break from Civ 4, Immortal level at least. :-(. I had a nice tech lead like pretty much everybody. I drafted like crazy, even had cannons before I started. Zara peace-vassalled to Bismarck so I decided to take out Bismarck first. He had Cuirassiers which for some reason pounded my rifles. I don't get it. He kept his Cuirassiers in the city, had is trebs soften up my rifles and then moved in for the kills.
@TheMelnTeam oh...yeah, I guess that would work...Patience is not one of my strong points in Civ, I think I just assume that if I DOW the AI, they will play defense and not move their stack in my territory. Perhaps giving I'm giving the AI too much credit.
@TheMelnTeam Knights are one of the best ways to win on Pangaea for speed. I have a couple 500 AD Pangaea HR into Knights conquest games, in all off them I am pretty sure I Oracled Fued.

I can't speak for everyone, but I'd love to see you play a map with unrestricted leaders on and play random/random.

It doesn't come with "lasting" effects (other than the GA turns and their aftermath), but you did actually build a wonder, the Taj Mahal! ;)

@NegatorUK Gifting cities back was just to speed up the conquest time with artificial power. Techs count toward score.

WOW. So I replayed the map, and those 2 PV of yours made you win 200 years before I did.

TMIT, I beg of you, any tips? :-)

@Yanner39 Kill any big stacks before going in.

Once the AI is DOWed, is it programmed to attack?

I'm going to have to replay this map. I got really bogged down by going mounted. Drafting for sure seems a lot better on this map.

@mtgforlife The fastest time went mounted (mylene, with KNIGHTS lol). Raxor-thin micro margins can take you far in this game.

@mtgforlife Yeah knights can be extremely powerful but their window is very small.
