Monopoly released the inner bourgeoisie in me And Civ3 released the inner genocidal dicator in me. It's okay to let it out on occasion.  Indeed. |

All of this talk about EU4 and Vi2 makes me want to fire up the Age of Imperialism mod for Civ3 on my laptop and play something.
Went and played USA, an incredibly easy country. Eeeh... I just took over the ENTIRE two Americas. It was a considerable bloodbath, but it was also a matter of superior tech plus superior numbers, I as able to maintain minimal casualties and healed up the wounded and pumped out massive amounts of troops nonstop.
So I paused that and laid that aside. I thought about playing something pretty challenging and I started a game with the Boer Republics (combined nation of Transvaal and Oranje Free State). It's going decent but now British just got a bit... enroaching onto my territory with a rather large stack of troops. I am fairly sure they WILL do a DOW on me and force me to dig in for a vicious battle.
Would people like to hear an account of my game even though it's a very very old old game - Civilization III?
Note, it won't be the regular Vanilla nor the Conquests expansion, but rather a player-made mod in the Conquests expansion. The AoI runs from 1985 to 1924 with 31 civs (max allowed in the editor anyway) and full globe map of colonial powers and non-colonial powers.
I probably will title the account thread as "Afrika for Afrikaaners" because I plan to use the Boers to take over the entire continent (and possibly achieve the world domination of 66% world population, 66% world area). What do you guys think?

Desophaeus, sure, ill look at it, just tag me when you make it. How about this: We each need to do LP's of some grand strategy game, but we need to do LP's of a country on each continent (except maybe Oceania). So I'm probably going to do (in vic2 HPM): North America: Mexico or USA South America: Chile Europe: Prussia Africa: Transvaal Asia: Shogunate Japan or Imperial Japan Near East: Persia or Ottoman Empire Australia: Australia

People that I know who most likely might like the idea of reading about my Boer game in a Civ3 mod. If you're interested, I appreciate you as a reader too. |

I might just take a look Probably "Afrika for Afrikaaners". I will make it now. I need to take a screenshot now and then write up what happened before that point because I started playing a bit until 1903 now. It's a good start, captured fully Mozambique under mu control but the evil Brits is starting to gather up a LOT of troops on my borders. Definitely going to be invaded. Definitely. Anyway, need to write the previous events up to that point. |

As soon as the Draw Four card falls, friendships fall with it. This is too often true... I remember the draw 4 of 2009...a sad,sad day... But even worse...the draw EIGHT of 2011. So many draw twos...so many... |

I don't play paradox strategy... Just letting you know about my civ3 story thread if you want to read it. And Civ3 was made by Firaxis, not Paradox.  I'm about ready to post the next chapter now. |
