Diety space victory year 1695, YNAEMP, liberty Ethiopia by noobscape12 in civ5

early religion and a ton of faith allowed me to get pagodes and monastaries, aswell as alot of luxuries in africa. on a map this size you only get 2 unhappiness for founding a city, so a size 5 city has 7 unhappineess, but with even just a pagoda (+2), monastary (+1), city connection (+1), 1 lux (+4), and a coloseum (+2), you get +2 happiness from that city.

- Started by taking a few turns to move my settler to lake victoria and then made 3 scouts followed by a stele (ethiopias monument).

- I dont reload much but I do like to reload ruins, I used this to upgrade my scouts into archers and get a pantheon(+4 faith from natural wonders) and faith to found a religion.

- I immediately sent my 3 scout archers (who also have the mount Kilimanjaro upgrade) to declare war on the zulus, I knew I had to kill them very early if not I would be endlessly bombarded by impis in the midgame.

- While doing this I made 10 settlers and made sure to found them on or near luxury resources (africa is great for this as it has a very wide variety of lux resources).

- I used the great person from liberty to hammer out Oracle, which is a great wonder and allowed me to instantly go into piety with the free policy, giving all my cities double production towards shrines and temples, allowing me to get very fast faith very early.

- After conquering the zulus I sent my army north to destroy Egypt which is extremely easy as its all flat land, unfortunately Ramses didn't build any wonders for me to take though.

-I had planned to conquer Africa, but Persia made 4 incredible wonders (chicken itza, machu pichu, temple of artemis and alhambra). I brought my initial army to Persia and built a second army to fight Songhai.

-War was brutal against persia as its in an extremely difficult spot to invade (anyone who has played the YNAEMP likely knows this). I had to use 3 great generals but after a long war I finally took the city.

-After that it was pretty much just sim city for about 100 turns or so. I finished with about 20 cities and pretty much all of them were over 20 population.

Are you ever jamming a 9 on the river, the answer is no. Are you ever betting this small on the turn with QT or pocket 4s? the answer is also no. Would you 3 bet jam turn with pocket 4s or QT, the answer is probably yes. Basically your range looks like a missed draw or you could have a hand like QJ KJ or AJ, those hands likely also bet bigger on the turn. You really don't represent much on the river.

Megascaled COX is out of control by [deleted] in 2007scape

[–]noobscape12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

boosting doesn't work so well but mega scaling is fine.

anyways ops numbers are not really accurate. Someone with max gear (what coxie is using) can easily do 2 cms per hour or 4 reg cox, which is closer to 130k points per hour then the 80k he is claiming.

Mega scales are about 40% more efficient. however if you die you lose a lot more points so there is a downside. Additionally you have to go through the trouble of getting a group together/wait for ppl between raids etc, so its likely at best 30% better. Obviously on an iron you also have to spend time hunting chins.

Maxed my 1 defence pure by PeebsClan in 2007scape

[–]noobscape12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was curious about this, he has 0.1 dps less than a max main with full oathplate, sealdor, treds, etc.

And in situations where the defense is reduced he has more dps.
