War has been around since the Dawn of Time and in most cases is inevitable in


2/32

a game of Civilization. When it comes down to it, you want to be on the winningside. Honestly, who wants to lose a war? It's devastating to the country onboth a Commercial and Cultural level, which in course affects Production - notto mention you have to rebuild whatever Military units you lost and any landthat was pillaged. So how can we do the above to the opponent?

Getting a good start culturally is the key to early domination. You will beahead in Technology and Production in much earlier turns and thus be 1-up onthe enemy in terms of unit superiority. Production speed of units and whatbuildings (Great and National Wonders) you have created will affect the latterhalf of the game in terms of military dominance.

Generally, you want to break through to Military based unit production techslike Iron Working in the early game for Swordsman and Fascism in end-game fora free Great General, Infantry (Assembly Line) and Paratroopers. Unfortunately,simply having a superior unit is not enough. Certain buildings give militaryupgrades - free experience points upon creation ie; barracks. These will allowyou to bolster the ranks of your unit to your needs, be it an increase in CityAttack or Increased Movement. You also have the defensive factor of opponentsyou are attacking. Increased Tile Defense, Fortified Position, and City Defensebonuses also make even the weakest enemy hard to strike at. Your units willalso suffer fatigue from battles and decrease in strength.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

- The Math of War [MoW]

Ok, so you're ready to make your attack, but are you going to kill the enemyor will you die trying to conquer? Let's find out.

Chance of Victory (%) = Your Base Strength + Bonuses : Opponent's Strength + Bonuses

That is, your total strength in ratio to the opponents total strength in theform of a percentage. Luckily the computer does this for you. To see yourpercentage of winning the battle hold the right click over top of the enemy.Both totals will be shown along with the percentage you have to win. It is not

recommended to attack unless you have atleast a 75% of victory.

Note: The higher chance you have of winning the less strength that will be degredated after winning.

And on that note, remember that even if you lose a battle the opponent haspoints from his base strength lowered thus lowering his total strength evenmore. This is helpful if you are behind in strength but have numbers to wearthe enemy down.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

- The Typical Strategy [Typ]

Units: 2-3 Melee 2-3 Ranged 2 Mounted 2 Siege

Objective: Take over 2-3 Cities and convert all of them.

The Strategy: For this to work use upgrades to Increase City Attack for your


3/32

Melee and Increased Damage vs. Melee for your Mounted Units. This leaves Increased City Defense for the Ranged. Siege weapons should go for Increased Damage when Bombarding.

Lead with your Melee units and have everything follow onto them but have them split into two even groups. Make it so that you're attacking from both sides of the City when you arrive to it and try to not be attacking across the water or from a hill. On the way to the City use your Mounted units to take over Workers and destroy any Roads connecting important resources to that City, do not destroy the resources themselves. Upon arriving simply Bombard until your units have the ability to take over the town. Leave ONE Ranged to defend the city and repeat this process till you have taken over the Cities that you want.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

- The Extermination [Bye]

Units: 4-5 Melee 4-5 Ranged 4 Mounted 4 Siege

Objective: Eliminate a Civilization while converting atleast half of the Cities to become your own.

The Strategy: Set up a mix of Increased Damage vs. [Unit] amongst the group but make sure your Siege Units have Increased Withdrawal.

Split the groups so that everything but the Melee is in one group and just the Melee in the other. Attack a City head-on with the non-Melee group and spread the Melee around the City. This makes it so that the opponent cannot squeeze any other units in while you Bombard and take over the City; it still allows for a Melee to attack the City if it has the highest

percentage of victory.

The most effective way to eliminate an opponent is to only take over the beneficial Cities. The ones closest to your borders are usually weaker Culturally and can be razed (unless it is the original Capital or Holy City). This tactic is one developed in World War II, their it was simply called Island Hopping, this is City Hopping. City Hop to the Capital and take it over, then focus on razing most every other city that isn't along the coast or in a highly rich area. Take the Cities along the Sea out last.

_____________________________________________________________________________

/=============================================================================\|+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++Tips and Hints+++++++++++++++++++++++++++[Tip]|\=============================================================================/

- Strike early and show no mercy, taking out an opponent in the first 50-100 turns guarantees superiority easily for a good portion of the game.

- Leave atleast 2 Units to defend each City. It helps with your economy and obviously the defense of your City in case 1 Unit is destroyed.


4/32

- Quests you get that involve the military should be completed as they help immensely in increasing unit strength.

- Make good use of Technologies and buildings that reward free Technologies. Using them to get a Technology thats roughly 50 turns out is definitely a time saver and gives you military superiority.

- Use Great Generals on fresh Units. Don't make one super Unit, make them all a decent level.

- Raze Cities that are going to be a burden, City Hopping is beneficial for disturbing and distracting the opponent.

- Most importantly, have a set goal. Know exactly what you want to do. Nit pick and demoralize the enemy for now or completely wipe them off the map. Do not find yourself dragging on a war that you planned to just take a City or two with.

_____________________________________________________________________________/=============================================================================\|++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++Sample Game+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++[Smp]|\=============================================================================/

Turns 1-15

Start off by creating your first City in an area with freshwater and someforest, atleast 1 hill within the opening region is considered. The objectivehere is to use your Scout to reach the edges of the continent so you can buildyour next city along the water. All the while train Mining and Bronze Workingand make the first unit you create a Worker. Be sure to notice the forestedareas that you pass by with your Scout.

Things to Do==============-Expand and take note of the opponents' starting positions.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Turns 15-50

By now you should have Bronze Working and a Worker. Train a Settler and beginto clear the forest in the surrounding area, building either Mines or Farmsdepending on the terrain features of the forest. This should significantly helpyou gain a Settler to create your City on the sea. With your 2nd City begincreating another Worker and clear the forest around that City to speed up hiscreation. With your Capital create another settler. This time your objective isto pick a good spot for Cultural development while at the same time trying tocorner off one of your opponents (such as blocking them off in a penninsula).

The reason for this is so that City builds up quickly and depreciates theopponents' total land and leaving them unable to expand past where you haveexpanded.

Things to Make==============-Make 2 Cities, 1 on the Sea, another for Cultural development-Train 2 more Workers and clear more Forest to speed it up, Mines are amazing

Things to Learn


5/32

===============-Work towards Animal Husbandry and Fishing first. Archery and Masonry second-By the end of 50 turns you should have the entire first tier of Technologies and Animal Husbandry and Bronze Working at the minimum.

How to be a Friend==================-Do not allow Open Borders with anyone

How to Rule===========-If you haven't yet, adopt Slavery.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Turns 50-100

These turns can make or break you. Have Barracks and Archers in every City (3being the goal by now) and atleast 3-5 Workers. Mines and Pastures and allCities connected to the Capital will help significantly. By now your Sea-sidetown should be building Moai Statues (National Wonder), this will be yourwarhorse because of the increased production of the City. A Granary in everycity is now mandatory.

By now opponents will be wanting to Open Borders, deny them so they cannotexpand past the borders you have created. Look to create a 4th City, mainlyto block of opponent expansion but also to increase production. Keep an eyeout for valuable resources like Marble, Iron, and Stone. Mine them as soon asyou can as they will yield precious production points as well as give you theability to create more powerful units like the Swordsman.

Your Capital should build Stonehenge, The Great Wall, and the Oracle in thatorder. Technology should be progressed to Metal Casting so that when the Oraclefinishes you may choose Machinery as your free upgrade.

Things to Make==============

-Create a 4th City and focus on Barracks and Archers-Use the Capital to create World Wonders-Build Moai Statues to create a production overhaul in your Sea-side City

Things to Learn===============-Work on getting Metal Casting and Iron Working so you may create more powerful units.

How to Rule===========-If you haven't yet, adopt Monarchy.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Turns 100-200

During this time focus on Forges and Colloseum's to increase Commerce andProduction. Creating the Chichen Itza and Statue of Zeus World Wonders is alsohighly recommended. Heroic Epic is a must and is high priority, build it ASAP.Technology wise get through to Literature, Calendar, Construction, and Codesof Law to enable those afore mentioned buildings.

==============-Build Forges and Colloseums to increase Productivity-Construct Military-based Wonders across the Civilization-Use Great Engineers to Hurry the Wonder in 1 turn

Things to Learn===============-Advance Technology to allow production of said Wonders

How to Rule===========-Keep Monarchy and change to the Caste System

How to be a Friend==================-With owning a good corner of the map, feel free to allow Open Borders to increase trade

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Turns 200+

With a strong military dominance and expansive start you should be able tomaintain this throughout the course of the game. If you want to stick to adominating tactic you and simply take over another neighboring Civilization,just remember to not wage a war on two fronts. This position also leaves you

very Culturally developed and you could just kick back and expand till you haveRifleman and Cavalry to wage war again. Either way, maintain the same tacticto have 2-3 Production Cities, a Culturally heavy City and a Resource City.
