Spain perfect “mana curve” into Tercios and Conquistadores to dominate the old world and then it wasn’t even close with the Armada. England got fucked in the exact moment Spain got its coastal space.
Amazing how quickly the Aztec’s got the advantage in that ongoing conflict when Spain waged a foreign war. Spain was like a puppeteer this whole game, just lying in wait and not taking too much at once. Super fun to watch.
Yeah, if they have taken Madrid in a few turns then proceed to capture more cities in the "old world", the English might even win the war. Spain doens't have much troops whenshe's in a stalemate with the Aztecs.
Spain and Portugal had a Greece and Troy type of war going on there. The Spanish despite their massive army, just couldn't take 2-city Portugal. They were going at it hard for like 60 turns before they just gave up and came back later.
The power of Shoshone's land grabbing is real in the early game but the peace loving Pocatello AI is the reason why Shoshone is not suitable for Domination victory...
The ais are total cowards to a fault. England could've at worst done serious damage to Spain attacking there, but Spain's military score was so much higher, England was too scared to even try it.
English taking Paris LMFAO WHAT 🤣 Go to 6th grades to say such stupid shit about history it's France that invaded and took London in 1066 not the opposite but a Franco-British Union was very plausible to stop the hundred years war and this is great
Yes a unique building for bank called "Hansekontor", it gives you extra money when you make traderouts to other civs and extra production if you make a trade rout to a city state :) obviously only from that city where the "hansekontor" got built, not global.
Being next to the shoshone is such a massive handicap with all your land getting taken. Need to find some way for the civs next to them to not to get so stuffed from the beginning. Maybe extra land around the shoshone to start or just not using them. England really needed to attack Spain while they fought the Portuguese. Longbows could have tipped the balance and they could have split Spain between them and England probably would have been in a good enough position to then take out Portugal after.
Well they did start good with creating the Angevin Empire with Paris at the beginning and forming a Franco-British union but yeah they were locked in with no navy
Good move by Spain. Wage war and wipe out the Shoshone Navy, encouraging the Aztecs to invade and conquer the Shoshone. But by doing so, they weakened themselves, which Spain took advantage of and launched their own invasion of Aztec lands. When Spain established a foothold, the southern continent's fate was sealed when Spain sent their air force to the south. As soon as that happened, their air force was virtually uncontested and wiped out Aztec ground forces and demolished their cities for easy grabbing.
When I saw the Iberians conquer "Europe", I told myself "No Way!" Then I saw the 3 empires of the "New World" and I said "Mayby ..." Then I saw the end and I laughed ... Yeah, no, it's not funny.
