Honestly, I have no idea what's going on anymore. Started everything off in the middle of World War III, brokered some deals for peace, and then by the end of it all, we found ourselves back in the thick of it. Basically, at the beginning of my turns, I started getting geared up to take more of Ramses' cities. I had our research set to 0% for a while and focused on building artillery and pumping out more units. I was a little afraid of Louis, as on the power graph, he was far above us, so I bribed Ragnar into declaring on them as well. Then all of a sudden out of the blue, Stalin declared war on us. I didn't want to fight a two front war, so I made peace with Louis and Ramses, with no concessions from either side. Stalin blindsided us and brought a load of Cossacks right next to London by way of ship. Luckily, we had some units still stationed there, so I did some emergency upgrades and sent all our mobile units north. We were easily able to clear everything out within a matter of turns, so I sent our extra forces to the north west so we could get rid of that city that Stalin had next to all the iron. Ended up conquering and razing it. It would have been a pretty unprofitable city, engulfed within Moscow's borders. It also had a lot of overlap with Moscow's tiles, which I didn't want, since I have plans for owning Moscow in the near future.
Now while all this was going on up north, there was a lot of action to the south. Genghis and Ragnar between the both of them took three of Ramses cities. What this did was free up some of our borders and now, we seem to have access to oil in the southwest. So I hurriedly got a bunch of workers down there to finish an oil well. With oil now in hand, we could finally build some ships to compete with Stalin's frigates. Started and cash rushed a battleship in London. 40 power compared to Stalin's dinky 8 power frigates means domination time. So basically towards the end of my turns, I was gearing up for a rush on Moscow. I have a couple of transports cooking in some of the coastal cities, as well as another battleship. What we need to do now is send our battleships around the coast to clear out Stalin's entire navy. Then we can transport over some tanks next to Moscow.
Oh yeah, by the way, on my last turn Genghis asked us to declare war on Ramses again. I noticed he's now down to a single city, so I obliged. It's now a race to see who can conquer his last city amongst ourselves, Genghis, and Ragnar, so as you can see I sent whatever extra units we had in the south into Ramses' territory. After Ramses is eliminated, we should automatically go to peace with Louis, so don't fear him too much.
As for plans besides military ones, we should probably hit up Rocketry next after Plastics. Three of the computer players already have learned this, which means they all have a jump start on us in the space race. We need to learn this ASAP so we can start on the space elevator.
