Questions:

1. What do we research after The Wheel? (1 Turn)

2. How can we encourage growth in Delhi?

3. Do we want to rename Delhi?

4. We have 2 warriors in SL. Do we want to go exploring again?







Thanks,

koondrad.

Research-Maybe pottery?

Encourage Growth-we need a border expansion.

Warriors-leave them there. Just in case.

Delhi should be building an obelisk to get the two food resources. Unless you want to keep it safer.

And Jeejeep you get to name dehli...

Discovered The Wheel.

Started research on Pottery.


Alpha Wolf moved NW.

Warrior fortified.

Worker finished chopping the forest.

Short Line switched production to Obelisk.
- :hammers: 10 turns until completion.

Discussion:

- What do we want to do about the barbs? Attack them at the border?



Thanks,

koondrad.

I took some liberties with renaming things. I needed to rename the workers so I could tell them apart. I made them beavers so they would be hardworking (could be changed). Someone said in another thread that I was the one who was supposed to rename Delhi, so I did that too.

Units:
-Worker one renamed Alpha Beaver. Starts a road towards Delhi (2).
-Worker two renamed Beta Beaver. Starts a forest chop to finish Obelisk (3).
-Alpha Wolf is healing. He is at 1.5 health.

Cities:
-Short Line has growth in three and a Buddhist Monastery in four.
136646

-Delhi renamed B&O. Growth in 13. Obelisk will be done in three with chop.
136647

Research:
-Pottery in four

To discuss: What to build next? In SL? In B&O?
What to do about the barbs?

I suggest settler or warrior in SL and warrior in B&O.

Press enter. Everything is the same as before minus one turn on all builds, research, etc.


PS: Sorry for neglecting Koondrad's great style of reporting, it just didn't feel worth it for this turn.

Heh, no problem.


I like the sound of having S and O popping out another warrior and yes, in SL it's time to start another settler.

Units:
Alpha Wolf still healing
Beta Beaver finishes forest chop.
Alpha Beaver moves NE-NE of SL and starts a road.

Research: 2 turns on Pottery.

Cities:
SL: two turns on monastery, one turn to size six.
136990

B&O: Obelisk will be finished in the interturn with the chop.
136989

No more sign of the barbs or Innovia then? :)

No, none at all. Haven't seen any other units since I took over.

How much happyness does a monastery give? we may have to stop growth in SL next turn.

We still have space for one more active citizen before unhappyness, or?
And after that, building a settler in Short Line will stop the growth for a while.

Where are the workes located at the moment? Might be good to start improving one or two squares around the new city-site right away?


(I really need to read Civilopedia when I get back from work)

Monastery gives +2 culture, +10% research, and the ability to build missionaries. No happy faces. I'm not sure how many automatic happies we get on this level, but we should be hooking up gold soon anyway. Can't improve squares that aren't in our borders (except roads), but I'll start a road there ASAP.

Thanks for the comments.

After growth in SL (before we get gold hooked up) We need to switch the land food resource (Corn? KORN!) to a plains tile. After growth we will be at max happy.

Units:
Alpha Wolf still healing
Alpha Beaver building road NE-NE of SL (1)
Beta Beaver building road S of B&O (2)

Research: Pottery in 1

Cities:
SL has one turn left on Monastery. Growth stagnated so as not to grow above the happy limit. Settler up next.
137236

B&O finishes obelisk, starts warrior (2) with overflow from chop. Growth is still a while away but borders will expand in 10 turns.
137235

Discussion: What next in B&O? Other comments?

Worker should probably be next, we should have a couple by the time we get a third city. Or we could build another warrior for the new settler.

Worker should probably be next, we should have a couple by the time we get a third city. Or we could build another warrior for the new settler.

It would be our third settler. A worker for the settler is good. Are we going to put the new city in the location in the west we agreed on before?

SL should switch to maximum food (as food counts towards production when a settler is constructed). If the overflow of food from the last building is counted towards our settler, we should switch to maximum food right away.

Some new pictures of the land would be great. Especially close to the possible city sites.

Okay, will have new pictures next time.

When building a settler, both hammers and food count as production. We don't want to have have max food, we want to have max hammers+food.

Indeed.

My question was though if the excess food the turn that a building is complete counts towards the settler if there is a settler next in queue, or if that food is just added to the food storage.

Played it but no time for a full report now. We need to figure out what to research. I went for writing, as it seemed the best choice to me.

Units: Alpha Wolf still healing.
Alpha Beaver finishes road, starts road to next city.
Beta Beaver building road (1)

Cities: SL finishes monastery starts settler. MMed to better tiles.
137700

B&O has one turn on warrior. Nine turns until border expansion.
137699

Research: Pottery finishes. Not sure what to start, so go with writing (9).

Discussion: What to research? What next in B&O?

Another post with more screenshots coming up.

East:137701

Northeast:137702

Northwest:137704

Southwest:137703

B&O workboat sounds good. Hook up the fish. What is our tech situation?

Units: Alpha Wolf is fully healed. Move him 1W, revealing jungle.
Alpha Beaver and Beta Beaver both building roads to city site 3.
Warrior I forgot to name (just built in B&O) moves toward city site 3.

Cities: B&O finishes warrior, starts workboat (10). Borders expand in 8.
SL has 6 turns on the settler. Not growing.
137930

Research: 7 turns on writing (vetoable). Our research situation.
Hmm, pic seems lost. Next turn then. Some choices are AH,
archery, sailing, IW, and Masonry. Also Polytheism.

Discussion: What should we research? What should we do with our
workers? Where should Alpha Wolf explore? What are we
naming city 3?

Archery for research, in my opinion.

No time for a good pictorial report. Everything much the same except -1 turn.

Alpha Wolf moves east and exposes more jungle. Workers still building roads.

I'll change research the next turn if someone posts who agrees with Emp. Killyouall.

EDIT: Sorry, I was in a rush and forgot to start a new thread. Next time.

Archery sounds like a safe idea.

KOONDRAD:Check your PM's

Pretty dull this turn.


Alpha Wolf moved N.
- Spotted forest

Both beavers completed roads.

I tried to change to Archery, but the prequisite hasn't been researched.

:blush: Guess I was wrong then. Should we go hunting-archery or just continue on writing? I think our next city needs to claim bronze anyway.

Writing then hunting-archery.

Spotted barbs in the NW.

Moved Beavers out of harm's way. Both now working on more roads.


Alpha Wolf moved NW.
