I start a war with England in 1060 AD. I get screwed when the next turn England finishes feudalism and upgrades to longbows.
I am surprised when China shows up for a visit. I find out that Bismarck create a colony. The question is where is the island on this map?
No AI city will survive if you can throw enough catapults at it. England's 10 unit stack couldn't hold the city. I now control the Hindu shrine. I killed so many units that I got my first great general.
England continues to fall.
I send Monty a thank you card for weakening the city enough so that I could take it without loss. I also own the Buddhist shrine.
This is the end of the English empire. This is far too late to win honorable mention for fastest dead civ.
It is back to recover the economy time. I need courthouses in all the new English cities. I also need to take advantage of the two shrines England built for me.
England didn't build the Apostolic Palace for me. Taking him out left me as the only civ with theology. I had no problems to secure the AP religion and getting the odd effect of adding four food to every city thanks to the AP religion buildings.
I snag liberalism in 1480 AD and take Nationalism starting a race with Germany to build Taj Mahal first. I saw him naturally complete Nationalism the same time. I can't afford to let Germany get a bonus golden age.
My original plan was one and done with wars. However, I feel Bismarck is to strong. I need more land to ensure I can send my people back to space where they belong. I declare war on the Aztecs in 1525 AD.
Monty's empire begins to fall.
