The missing road that makes me so mad! (at myself)

[SexyBlitzerRoller]

I got boat killed in a cton game where I actually would have won if I just wouldn't screw up... 15 turns left and I was gaining and had GA and we were 4 players left, I had planned to attack him with about 20 immortals just about to march out, then it happens... I had forgot to road once city at the coast - 2 forest tiles unroaded - and there were only 2 spears... stupid me. If I had roaded, I would have gotten about 10 backup units in immediatly. Road, road and road... I always tell myself, but dammit I forgot that. I was so point-hungry and settled right away.

I just had to post this because I am so frustrated now because that would have been my first cton win ever, and so other new players can learn from that noobie mistake I did, but let me ask... What is the best countermeasure against those boat killers?

EZ - Kill them first.

build boats to watch your coast and then when you see some boats coming have some more ready to kill them. Even if the enemy loses 2-3 boats that's 4-6 units less to worry about on your land.
