Have we decided what wonder that will be built in PDX?

comments are welcome

we decided on pre-building newton's uni in PDX before the elections.

good:)

Go Normandy and PDX! That is what it should be sorry!

This is a reminder too all cabinet members and governers to post their turn chat instructions here (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=23980) for tonight's turn chat, if you haven't done so already.

Here is a suggestion for Normandys flag
What do you think?

Blue for the seas we rule.
Green for the land we take.
Red for the blood we shed.

I'd get rid of the black X and put a stein in the center. Or maybe a brass horn, round shield or a longboat sillhouette.

Shaitan: I´am working on the changes of the flag

PDX: prebuild factory with Palace[c]/ Coal plant or wonder?
Pherris:Wall street[c]/ military acadamy

Shailonegha: marketplace[c]/ Cavalry/ Catheadral
Port Gisnod: marketplace[c]/ temple/ barracks
Miami: marketplace[c]/ Barracks/ Catheadral
Boston: aqueduct[c]/ worker / marketplace
Valhall: marketplace[c] / worker/ Cavalry
Chicago: temple[c]/ marketplace

Should we build coal plant or go direct for the wonder?

Here are the changes on the flag. How is this:
Edit: Maybe a bit big

Change the warrior to a black sillhouette and it'll be perfect!

How is this?:

Hmmm...

The warrior's looking a little skinny. Need to get rid of the white artifacts and give him a shoulder too. And remove the dangler from between his legs. :lol:

lol:lol:
Is this better?:

Excellent! Just a little red peak-through on his wrist (axe hand) and head. Looks great!

Here is the final and Offical version of the flag:

I don´t think the green should be in there. Perhaps yellow or white instead.

I was thinking: In the scandinavian countrys flags the cross stands for christianity and since we dont have a religion (do we?) maybe we should skip that. Plus the neon-green dont go that well whit the rest of the flag maybe you should use another green colour. Thats enough whining for now and Crabapple youre doing a :goodjob: job.

we are a multicultural society (persians, americans, egyptians, chinese, aztecs, romans etc.) so any symbol has merit but no real religious significance. We could THEORETICALLY put the text from the Saudi Arabian flag, but it has no bearing on the in game symbolisms.

Nice flag crabapple. I think the flag in post #14 is a little better than the one in #16, as the eye is a little smaller. The colors will show up well when you're in the field.

Okey Now I hope this is the last version of the flag:lol:

I think so too that it doesnt matter what it means in real life. Now it means Normandy:)

Excellent!

I have seen worse ;)

I would like to publicly thank Governor Crabapple for Normandy's help with both NEP and our wonder building program!
Since our productivity has greatly increased it is imperitive that our governors review their build queues.

Crabapple. I admire your work to promptly make and propose build queues! Great work :goodjob:

I offer the following, as perhaps my preferences. I realize your cities are not the industrial heartland of our nation. However, I guess my smaller city strategy may differ to yours. Here's some examples of what I mean:

Port Gisnod: Factory (29 turns). I'm not sure why spend 29 more turns on a factory for a 7 shield (productive) city. We could have a University in 9 (more) turns instead. I think I would personally use the small-shield cities for culture and production of the cheaper military units like artillery and infantry.

New Falcon's Haven - Same as above. All those turns seem like a long time to wait for an improvement. I guess I generally play with a 20 turn buildtime cap on my cities - if something can't be done in 20 turns, it may not be worth building.

Shailonega - I think a factory here could be ok.

I tend not to build Factories in towns that produce less than 15 shields or perhaps a bit more. Below that threshold, I'm not sure if those cities can build a factory quickly and benefit enough from its bonus to really help things. Also, Police Stations do reduce corruption and waste, but I am unsure if they would greatly help in the distant cities of yours. They are expensive improvements to make and may only save a shield or 2 and perhaps a couple gold, which may not save anything, due to the maintenance on them. I think it would take a long time to get the shields back that they may save.

I'm also unsure of your commitment to national defense. Could you address this as well?

Thanks, and I appreciate your comments.
cp

ok, first about the factorys yeh maybe it is not needed. Port Gisnod I have changed it to university. About New falcons heaven so maybe in the future when I get it railroaded it can be worth to build a factory.
About the Police station so Valhall is a very productive city if it maintain WLTK and have a Police station it can be productibe, Chicago is not worth it when I took a second look 33 turn is abit much. Miami I think needs it.
About the defence as you can see I have changed some production queues to infantry by your request.

When I play civ3 I´am a perfectionist and want many improvents in every city even if it is not good for the economy:D

Please support the PDX to be capital of our glorious country! The Prestige of Normandy to have one of their cities as the capital is great!

Notice to all governors regarding provincial redisdribution

Provincial borders have recently realigned with approval from a cabinet vote. Please see the map in the first post of the Discussion Thread (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=25533) to see your new cities. Remember, update your cities accordingly for the turn chat instructions.

Crabapple, I just read your turn chat instructions. I was just wondering why you didn't accept the offering from the Domestic Dept.

I have searched the forums I cannot find any offerings. Was it that with hospital in Boston but I tought it was only an example, but if that was the offering I will gladly accept

I'm sorry crabapple. I guess I should have mentioned in my thread that offerings will be posted in the Budget Request thread. That's where they should be found before or after any turn chat. My mistake. Your funding is approved if you change your build queue in the instruction thread.

np :)I will change the building queue now

Will there be a term 4 thread?

It exist already :)

This is a reminder to all cabinet members and governors to post (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=26275) their build queues and turn chat instructions for tonights turn chat, if they haven't done so already.
