OK seeing that this section of the lobby seems dead, ill try and get the ball rolling, with a cton tale, not quite an epic tale, but dont have any of them.
Today i played in a 6 player cton on a small map, pangea. after 1 expansion my border was touch persia and 1 tile away from greece. So at this piont i start moaning about how crap the land seperation is on pangea, etc. I try send a few warriors over persias land, we go at it with warriors and achers, for a while, in this time i manage to sneak a worker out, thinking if i dont im dead anyway and praying greece hold off for a bit. The turn i manage to get horses i see greece and persia achers, i quickly move worker behind and shop like mad , by some luck/rng i see of 6 achers. With about 60 turns gone i have 2 workers and 1 city, with quite a few carriots. Manage to kill persia(1 city elim), and get second city with iron and as soon as i get catapults i take greece out. Now only about 60 turns left and i have 3 cites and quite a few workers cuz i nicked them from persia and greece. But really low in score.
The game goes on and when there are 30 turns left, im about 4in score, like 200-300 behind china, i dont even know where china is, then out of the blue is se chinas border touching mine, im like huh, i send my stack and he has tried to build cites before 20 turn deadline, 3-4 axes in it..LOL, hes dead!!
16 turns left and im ready to call it, but just then i see germany showing off about how many units he has over france, really happy with him self. Im thinking he cant have much at home, he kills france. And 2 turns later i kill him. LOL
Im seding units to mongals, with the china onesand new ones, and hes like i quit, i got hanging gardens and was beating him on score with 6 turns left.
From a really fustrating game to a funny one!!
;D ;D ;D
