Thanks to Governor Plexus for allowing me the opportunity to be mayor of this soon-to-be-great city.

Wanted to take a screenshot of the city screen, cant figure out how. if anyone can point me to a thread with the directions (or if they're simple, just write them) that would save me some searching.

City of Vo Mimbre
Founded in 2150

Vital Info this is as of 410bc
Size: 4
Happines: 2.2.0
Food: 16 (+2)
Shields: 12 (+6)
Gold: 0.5.0
Corruption: less then 11% (estimate)
Growth: 2 turns
Produce: Barracks, 5 turns
Defence: 1 regular Spearman


Work Space
1 Hill (Mined and Roaded, shared with Deux Rivers)
7 Desert (2 roaded)
1 Jungle
4 Coast
5 Plains (2 Irrigated and Roaded)
1 Plains on a River (Irrigated and Roaded, shared with Deux Rivers)
1 Plains with Cattle (Irrigated and Roaded)

Looking to the Future
Needed Improvements:
a less oppressive government would get the Cattle Plains to provide more food and shields.
the jungle in SSW could be chopped down, if there's a shielded grassland under there, then (once mined) it'll produce as much as the cattle plain.

Future outlook:
With a barracks we can go to a hyped up military recruiting policy. We will train the great military that will take Fanatica into the future.

to Grow beyond size 6, which the populace can easily tolerate, we need some way of bringing water (aqua) into the city via some sort of duct. Unfortunately our scientists dont seem to be able to come up with a way to do that.

Citizens of Fanatica Living in Vo Mimbre

Zorven - named the city
RoddyVR - Mayor
Krabius - Wonder Builder wanna be.

Greetings Mayor RoddyVR. I'm just dropping by with a complimentary case of wine. One Mayor to the other, I hope things work well for you here. Nice work on the first post.

I, zorven, Vo Mimbre's first citizen and the one who has bestowed such an honorable name as Vo Mimbre to this great city, welcome RoddyVR as Mayor of this fine city. I look forward to your leadership, guidance, and wisdom.

Please feel free to stop at my home after you have settled in for a celebratory dinner.

zorven

it seems that a settler was produced out of our once great city. almost half the population was forced to go out looking for a new home. we wish them luck, and are sorry they had to go.

I would personaly like to ask the powers at be NOT to do that again. there are other cities that can replace the lost population MUCH faster, and that dont produce nearly as much production that could be put into the military and domestic improvements.
Workers, i would not apose, but our city is just not equiped to provide the nation with settlers.

zorven was looking forward to dinner with Mayor RoddyVR. RoddyVR was the first mayor - Vo Mimbre had finally grown large enough to require the full time attention that only a mayor could provide. zorven didn't know much about the new mayor; RoddyVR had ascended to his mayorship while zorven was in Deux Rivières working as the President of Fanatica. Although very busy, zorven wanted to make this trip to meet RoddyVR.

zorven had been one of the original settlers of the Vo Mimbre area, while RoddyVR was a newer resident. zorven had settled to the southwest of the city proper, at the base of a beautiful range of hills. zorven had homesteaded quite a large area and had developed his land into a thriving cattle business. It is said in many corners of Fantica that the "Little z Ranch" provided the best beef in the country. And it was this beef that zorven was bringing for dinner. zorven was hoping that he and the mayor could develop a good personal and professional relationship that would help both Vo Mimbre and Fanatica thrive.

zorven rounded the final stretch of road and could see the many changes that had occured to Vo Mimbre since he left for the Presidency.

Mayor Roddy stumbles into the office weary and tired. Having spent almost a week looking after his sick nephew, coming into the office just didnt seem all that important.

having come up to date on current events in the office though, he felt a little guilty for not having come by earlier. The barracks that had started construction in the city was a very pleasant surprise.

Hey people! You heard the latest news? Im moving to Vo Mimbre!

Looking at the turnchat ("Germans build the Great Library") and applying mathematical reasoning, you will not become Minister of Internal Affairs. ;)

But I have come to suppose that the demogame is not based on logical reasoning. :D :D :D

BTW I have a feeling that the Mayor of this fair city speaks russian, doesnt he?

lol. yes he does. fluently actualy. but as Fanatica is french, and the forum is english, i think i will refrain while i can.

oh and welcome to the city of Vo Mimbre.

tao, How could I guess those Germans would move the building of it from Koninsberg to Berlin.

If you want a piece of Math, then by calculating the speed of Sun during Vebruary we understand that if I would play this game earlier and be Minister now, the Library would be in Vo Mimbre long ago :p Any way I will build here a wonder or my name isnt Krabius, wait it isnt.... Maybe it is !:king: . So in the conclusion I would want to say that I will eat my hat :king: if I wont build here a wonder

oh and welcome to the city of Vo Mimbre.
Thank you!:goodjob:

If you want a piece of Math,.......Because wonder cascades always happen.

The math comment was off-topic simple logic: "a->b" is equivalent to "not b->not a" ;)

Everyone is invited to my house party. The drinks are on me...

:rolleyes:

Uhh... We had a beer contest yesterday :beer: ... So no beer left. Don't worry I saved ya one bottle of my finest wine. I'll send it to your office, tell me if you like it!


*sends a bottle of "Le Fanatision" of 2789 BC to the Presidents office*

Krabius looks up from his yard work (if you call digging a new drainage ditch "yard" work). The sound of footsteps grows and he sees the familiar face of the postal carrier for Vo Mimbre. The greet each other warmly, but have little time for talk as the postal carrier has to continue his rounds. Krabius accepts a parchment and decides to take a break from the mid-day sun.

Dearest Krabius,

Thank you very much for the bottle of "Le Fanatision" of 2789 BC. I appreciate your kindless greatly. I have been so busy here in the Capitol that I had not had time to sit and enjoy it until tonight. My has it aged well!

You may have heard that I am not running for re-election as President. I plan on taking some time off from service to the nation and return to my life on the Little z Ranch outside of Vo Mimbre. I truly look forward to returning home and the work on the ranch. When I return, I will bring over some of my best filet mignon and a bottle of wine from the celler and we will have a good dinner and good conversation.

Sincerely,

zorven

Krabius,

Well, my anticipated return to the Little z Ranch has been postponed again. Seeing that the Judiciary was in need of help, I offered my services for the current term. I hope you will take a raincheck on our dinner.

I have arranged for some of our premium steaks to be sent to your home, I hope you enjoy them.

May I suggest you build a granary after the pikeman? It will be finished in time before the next growth and will speed growth to size 12 significantly.

regards
