Ok. So here's a little documentation on my 2nd MP game... I've got alot to work on.
So anyhow, me and stal go for a game. Since we feel lucky about our internet connections, we go ahead and go for a warm-up game. We went random civs 1v1 on a large Hills map.
Here's what followed: I get Greece, he gets Egypt.
That should sum it up, but here's the scoop;
We start as normal. I start making villies like mad in stone and don't stop till I get about 20. I'm not doing so bad, as I've found 3 elephants and a couple gazelle herds somewhat close, and managed to pit in a good spot. After this I go into tool.
From here I try to keep the food coming, while getting the wood and gold pumping up in later tool.I did not build any walls. Huge mistake. Anyhow, I build vils till I get to 32 vils. I hit bronze at that time, making a scout as well... I see that he's already at bronze and already has CAs... Wow...
I build as many stables as I can, but he knocks them down and I only get one standing. While Ido have the resources they're going to waste becuase I can't get my buildings up fast enough. He kills those vills, although I manage to pull out a few cavs... They were taken out pretty quickly by his CA swarm though. I try to send my vills to the other corner of the map and build a siege workshop. He finds them in 30 seconds and mows them down.
All that are left are my woodies... I build a siege workshop and chop wood till I die... Since I had few wood and not many houses, I only manage to pull out one ST, which kills 2 CAs and dies. Amazing. And within a few minutes the game is won.
Frankly, I don't understand. I had all my vills working diligently and Istill couldn't bronze before Stal. Makes me mad... It looks like I should have just ignored the cavs and instead use slingers/STs.
