The rise/fall of the Third Roman Empire

Background

Hello, guys. It has been a while since I posted my last game because I’ve been busy. In this game, I’m hoping to experiment with the strategy of militarising. In game3 &4, I generally industrialise my cities and rurals right from the start of the game. However, I saw two players yielding a better result even in terms of economy without building industries. So, in this game, I’m setting a constraint to myself-no industries. I’ll spend all my resources in the military. So how to compare the results yielded? I don’t think army size can do it because militarising will usually get a larger army size. However, I want to compare the resources production. If you have a larger economy, your army will gradually become stronger, right? I have written down the resource production figures in my last game for comparison: Day2 44201 Day6 60915 Day 10 91024 And the production rates at the Spanish game after 12 days: cash: 3685/h goods: 652/h food:759 mp: 611 steel: 599 oil: 769 rares: 648

It’s impossible to have the production up to44k in day2 without industrialising. But I should have produced more resources from day6 on or I can’t call the strategy successful. Let’s see how the game’ll go. Personally, I’m not very confident in this play style. Maybe the game will change my mind.

Choice of map: to general disappointment, I’ll play CON again. Sorry guys, I’m just too busy to play more competitive games.

Choice of country: I’ll go for Axis again. This time, I’ll choose Italy because of its long coastline and unfavourable relief(mountain).
