My attack plans...

Bimz--

Next time cross post, please include URL to threat from general to strategy.

You never mentioned artillery. They can be quite useful reducing HP's of close navy units.

Too bad this is unpatched game. Sounds like a real can of worms. Go to civ fanantics and read Crackers notes on the early game. Your mine to irrigation should start at about 3:1 ratio, or higher.

With knights I would have waited for cav or be the smaller spoiler civ while some stronger civ is cutting up target civ. If not waiting for cavs, then you need at bombardment before throw knights into the fray. If you had more mines you could have afforded a bunch.

Good luck.

Oh BTW this game is finally over. Yes I had a retired lost and finished with a lowsey score of only 813...LOL. Well I guess I can say at least I survived and managed to catch back up a little in technology. I think if I was able to stay away from war half of this game I may been able to do alot better. Anyway I started a new game, but unfortunately I am not doing too well on this one either. I may get off of Regent level and drop down to Warlord for a little while so I can do better.
