Documentation Civilization BoardGame – October 2008

Day 6 –The Late Iron Age and Final Results                                   Back to Main Page

We started in Turn 17, right before the Acquisition of Civilization Advance Cards.

Turn 17 – The Celts lost a City in Flames, the Hatti had superstitious slaves revolt and the Iberians a Civil Disorder.

Minoa developed Medicine, the Celts Metalworking and Mythology, Assyria Masonry, Babylon Metalworking,

Carthage Mysticism, Hatti Pottery and Iberia Metalworking.

Turn 18 – A four ship invasion force from Minoa attacked Carthage and Thapsus and revenged the torrent of hatred shown by

Carthage over the last 15 rounds. The stolen trade cards proved very important afterwards.

After trading Minoa had too much calamities, so the most devastating one, the Civil War, was randomly chosen to be dropped.

Minoa was hit by Squandered Wealth, Treachery and Barbarians. Iberia was hit by an Earthquake. Egypt had a Tempest,

Assyria had City Riots and Babylon had Coastal Migration.

Minoa developed Politics and Mysticism, the Celts got Mining. Rome developed Agriculture, Babylon got Architecture and

Carthage developed Diplomacy and Masonry.

Minoa were the first and only ones to step to the Late Iron Age.

Turn 19 – The Minoans used their Roadbuilding to get a city back, lost by Treachery to Babylon. They also invaded former Carthage territory

and threatened four cities in Carthage by Politics, and also allowing only one city rebuild. The Hatti attacked the old city of

Damascus. All other nations stayed almost quite in this last attacking phase.

Only one minor calamity was found, a Squandered Wealth in Iberia. But major calamities hit almost everyone.

Treachery in Assyria, Earthquake in Minoa, Famine and Slave Revolt in Iberia, Epidemic in Carthage, Cyclone for the Celts and

Iconoclasm and Heresy for Carthage again.

Finally Carthage was back again to a poor civilization with nomadic people without any cities.

Athens changed from Rome to Minoa due to Politics.

Minoa developed Sculpture and Coinage, the Celts had Roadbuilding and Music, Assyria and Hatti developed Agriculture,

Rome and Babylon developed Empiricism, Carthage had Rhetoric, Egypt developed Fundamentalism.

Finally Minoa mad the last step on the AST and won the game.
