Role Play Challenge, The Next Generation: Comrad Chairman.

Yup metals first.

Else you will notice the lack of cottages very fast :)
 
Comrade Chairman. Soviet Expansion and Important matters of State

Welcome back Comrades. A good segment here with some decisions to be made on how best to have the Soviet people serve us, I mean searve the Soviet People.

We start by following the advice of the masses and established the city of Petrograd



Yes, the more I see the less I like this Arabian Greek. I tell you my friends he is NOT to be trusted and he rudely expands into the Soviet sphere of influence. I agree, we must secure the copper and gold!

Along the way we meet one of those disillustioned religious maniacs, Pacal the Mayan from China.



Sigh, I know Comrades, such a waste. But we must let them be to their own ways, at least for now. He did appear to come from past the Arabian Greeks lands though.

Now here is a look at Moscow.



Ah, nice production and the ability to run two superior Soviet Scientists. This di not last long as you will see however this is the blueprint for this great city for now. We are also following the strategy of running either 100% or 100% beakers at a time to help Soviet Research!

But I am forgetting, forgive me. We must review of technologial advance policy this segment

Agriculture/writing/Mysticism/sailing/Pottery/MAth

We opened borders with all as soon as we got sailing, amazing how much trade the Soviets can get with proper sailing vessles!

And with Open borders we looked in on this Greek Arab



As expected city #2 sits upon a hill but the capital is on flat land with horses right there. I tell you friends this Greek Arab is up tp no good, and the Soviet people must have those horses!

Here you can see we started another city, Navrograd (OK people, I need a list of proper Soviet cities as the computer keep giving me ST. Pete as the next option).



You cna also see the decimated lands of Petrograd from the barbarians. We had a farm and gold mine which was pillaged. The Soviet people in Moscow became unhappy without the gold, forcing me to chastise them. We Soviets are strong and determined, a little hardhsip will strengthen their backs and harden their spirit!

Rostov was settled next



Not soo grand but some farms and mine but alot of options for later watermills! Also close to silk as Soviet people will certainly need happiness resources.

And as we acquired more defensive archers, we sent the old Soviet warriors out to explore



And we come across a Mayan Missionary! The Missionary claims to be a Judaist Missionary and we leave him in peace although shaking our heads at such a lost people. We soon found a Christian and Confiscian Missionary coming out of China. I mean Comrade Soviets, cannot this Mayan Chinese PAcal make up his mind which false religion to delude his people with?

Ah, but we are now at a decision point.

As a results of much Soviet wotk, our first Great Scientist, Merit Ptah, has arisen



So we saved here looking for more advice from the masses. But oh, one more thing to discuss, what should we do with these fine Soviet volunteers.



And let's see one final picture of the Soviet Union so far.



Not so bad, huh! I think the Soviets will be a much greater empire after liberating the Arab people from their stupid Greek leader!

SO

1) What to do with teh Great Scientist?

2) What to do with our Soviet Army?



Oh, by the way, anyone notice we are up against three Protective leaders?!
 
Well, I'm guess you really can't bulb much right now. And since your capital doesn't have that much commerce anyways I would just settle him.
 
Where they are?

Alex of Arabia

Hatty of Native America

PAcal of China

Of course I went Momentarily brain damaged and forgot the leaders keep their trait upon switching civilization! :wallbash:
 
Nice round Mad.

Pretty much settle the GS. The first thing you want to bulb is Philo. And since you will not be using cottages, an academy seems far off.

About the recruits? Wipe the floor with the pitifull Arabians, there is only so much land you can share right?
 
settle the scientist and then use superior Soviet soldiers to smash, slash and slaughter Alex's Arabian armies.
 
Mad good game and Lenin is great. The man who gave Finland it's independence can't be totally evil.

Here are few Russian city names to choose:Smolensk, Kursk, Yaroslav, Murmansk, Petrozavodsk, Artkchangelsk, Volgograd, Vladivostok, Novosibirsk, Yekaterinburg, Samara.

You should also build a prison city somewhere on the southern tundra and name it Gulag. You could sent all your wanna-be merchants there :D
 
What about founding the Soviet Academy of Sciences ?

And I know for sure what those soviet volunteers should do. But maybe resourceful Chairman Lenin has other plans for greatness of soviet people :dunno:

I make honorable pledge that all Soviet cities shall have Soviet Academy of Sciences! After all we are of the Russian empire and the UB supplies 2 free scientists!

On the question, I think I like that idea! Perhaps all Great Scientists should build academies, one in every city we have. We are Philosophical and it should be somewhat attainable. Maybe not the bext game strategy but sounds like a good RPC angle.
 
Yeah, I'd like to see how it goes with all those academies. I sometimes wonder if that's efficient, but never did it myself.

Rumour says the Arab Greek is an aristocrat. Doesn't that give the Soviets the moral imperative to set his people free from the opression?
 
I would think Comrade Lenin would be practical enough to at least build his Soviet Academy of Sciences in the cities where scientists have already taken up a permanent residence.

He doesn't seem like an "If you build it, they will come" kind of guy.
 
I got a good chuckle with the academies idea. I like it, though agree that you should choose to put them in the best cities. Also, don't discount the 4:culture: they produce. Especially in Petrograd that would be useful for boxing out El Alex of Arabia.

P.s. - Not sure why you put Petrograd in that spot. I mean I guess you can farm the grass by the lake, but you could have settled 1E to get the plains cows or (as I would have dot-mapped it) 2 south to get wheat along with copper & gold. There is a culture fight for the wheat, but I think you were there first and Alex is usually building units, not monasteries.
 
P.s. - Not sure why you put Petrograd in that spot. .

Because Supreme Chairman of the United Soviet Socialist Republics Wanted axes faster to bring Arabia into such Union. Waiting 15 turns for a culture pop was not in the plan!
 
@mad-

What about Sputnik? Surely the glories of the USSR were culminated in that little gem?

We finish latest segment and writing up, you like. Sputnik is a mighty and noble goal for the Soviet people and may be one of our goals. It all depends on how best we spread Communist ideology to world, yes?
 
Comrade Chairman: The First Greek Arab War

Ah comrades, good good you have returned. There is much we have to discuss regarding the Soviet Empire.

But first, what to do with Comrade Ptah. Some say settle him. I say Nyet, this is a stupid decision as the people will look up to one man with repsect and awe??? I tell you all this is not of the proper Soviet mindset, we shall establish a grand Academy where all may come and learn the proper technolgy for Soviet Union.



Now nice Native American Lady come and visit myself asking for diplomatic help.



Do not underestimate your Chairman, he is a man of the people, but he is also a MAN if you catch my drift. We accept the lady's request and cancel open borders with the stupid Greek Arabs.

It also helps that noble Soviet army is just on the border



We do call and politely declare war, we Soviets see what we need and act!



Like so!

We quickly regroup and decide on the next target, thinking of the capital. However



Ah, Greeks are building mine on grassland tile. We do not have access to iron yet but we are not fools!



Maybe we cannot utilize iron yet, but we know this Alexander of the Arabs cannot use it either now, yes?

After losing several brave soldiers to the noble Soviet effort, be continue to buiold more of an army and attack the Arab capital



But wait comrades, we have found out that Pacal of the Chinese now has alphabet



But he is not nice negotiator, offering a useless religious tech for Mathematics. We want IRON PAcap of China, we will accept no less.

So we bring mighty Soviet army to capital of stupid Greek Arabs and



We have another city!

Ah, but I must apologize Comrades, the battle rage has distracted myself and I left these new cities with Arab names. UNACCEPTIBLE! We immediately change the names to proper Russian names.



Yes, much better!

We continue to capture and rename Greek Arab cities



And then out of the ranks a Great General appears, Comrade William



After harsh negotiations, Corade William has learned his proper place and now advises new unit show to fight in proper Soviet fashion rather than go into battle to earn further glory (and power!).

While the Greek Arab war contiued we researched only 2 technologies, Currency and Code of Laws, but important technologies they are!

We also find these captured Arab lands know how to help the state.



Ah, they build a pastureery fast, we like! I should mention that We built a Monument to myself in all cities, whether we had culture from a religion or not! Out of principal we accept NO help from any religion, just to set record stright.

Now once nice lady got alphabet we made a proper trade.



This Egyptian Native American Lady is very smart!

And after iron working we see



Yes, two good sources of iron, including the one in captured Greek Arab land!

We consider keeping a monopoly on Currency but somehow this does not seam the Soviet thing to do, so



I am most sorry Comrades, I forgot, about the stupid Greek Arabs.



Yes very nice city although these Greek Arab cities are NOT on rivers. I fear we shall lower production later but we shall see.

We then take a good look at our eastern border



Yes, I believe Alexander of Arabia has been weakened significantly, let's see what he has to say.



Very generous this Alexander, perhaps he has now shown wisdom!

So let us look at Soviet cities!



Note we have second Soviet Academy in Novrograd now.

We make one final minor trade with nice Lady



Finish Code of Laws and save



I think Soviet people need some additional happiness, do we research calander for silk plantations or construction for collesium? Use Soviets are very proud of our sports abilities!

Our cities are doing vert good!



And technolgy is also good



Little Mayan man from China will trade us Monarchy for Currency, do we take?

And let's look at our rivals



Ah, Nice lady has only 2 cities? We keep her around to trade with. Similar PAcal of China has only 3 cities! Stupid Alexander of Arabia has more thna either, I fear we must look to finish off that threat to Soviet Union fairly soon!

Our graph numbers



And demographics



Ah, Soviet power has already become tops in teh world!

And finally the map.



As you can see there is still much land to settle, so I think we should go that way! We shall settle every piece of land we can, and build Courthouses for proper Soviet Justice and markets to feed the Soviet People. There ar emany spots where we can get happiness I think.

So COmrades, I think Soviet Union is doing very nicely without the stinking capitilistic cottage sytstem!
