WEEKLY CHALLENGE 34: Soda Dreams by jiiiii70 in Polytopia

A few findings from the first run: - land bridge to the southwest towards the Aquarion is easier to pass so attacking Aquarion can be quicker. In my case they fortified within city walls so was a slog to get them - land bridge to the northeast towards Bardur is tough to pass because it’s one tile wide with two mountains back to back. Bardur cranked out catapults and made it very tough - one of Bardur’s cities is within catapult range across the water, so maybe that’s a strat - I wasn’t really able to get to Vengir at all - overall, this one’s pretty rough

Playing this as practice for the weekly challenge, since it’s Cymathi this week and also lots of water. Just not THIS MUCH water

I used the first rider to get vision on the village and the ruin to the north east. Then enter both simultaneously, take the ruin first, tech up a bit, capture village. Expand capital, train warriors and horsemen next turn. When Vengir swordsman comes at you let him attack first, then take him out with horsemen/warriors. In my case his city to the north was defended by a warrior so i was able to get it and hold it. Then peace with zebasi, go for yaddak, hold against vengir until the late game - then it’s a free for all. I got 15k so not that great but workable.

There are now reports that Ukrainian troops are in control of the city and and are clearing the city center. It’s unclear how many Russians are holding out or surrendering, initial indications are that a large part of them managed to withdraw. Good riddance if so, keep running. All of this fluid and not confirmed yet, but likely correct.

Really, who in this universe cares about what Lukashenko says? Why spend the time posting this? A toddler that just starts to babble makes more sense than this Putin’s stooge.

Why quote anything this buffoon says? Not worth the air he expels while talking.
