I don't think we'll run castes for a while, but I think it's conceivable we'll use it to finish up the Communism beeline.
Options are:I'm pretty sure are going to get the next Great Person from Moscow. We may want to consider running an engineer there.
Also, can you pause before starting the aqueduct in Moscow so that we can assesses our chances on the HG before we invest any hammers toward them?
Send 2 workers to build plains mine, and then start building the 2 cottages (the one on the fort and near fish city)
Siberia:
Build wealth/research (do we have anything else we want to build there in the near future)
I may have missed something, but I thought we were leaning toward building farms here. I'm fine either way...
Of what possible use could a galley be in pigs?????I think a majority want a confu missionary in Fish and a Galley build in Pigs instead of the courthouse.
My idea is that Moscow will build units non-stop after it builds Oxford. I hope you're right that the 10XP is near at hand. Btw, I definitely dislike HE in Fish--just not enough hammers there for the long-term.By the time we can build the universities we should only be a few turns away from getting a 10XP unit anyway(The risks of this not happening are of order 1-2%). Sacrificing a GG on giving XP to a couple of units, and sacrificing the longer term benefits of settling it just to get the Heroic Epic built a couple of turns earlier does not make sense to me. This is especially true as we wouldn't have any immediate need to build any new units there.
Actually, the idea was that we hadn't settled on anything. More recently I mentioned that I was in agreement with farming those tiles, because I'm in hopes we'll slingshot BIology.I think LC mentioned that there had been a major discussion on this while I was away and the team settled on cottages for the riverside grass?

It can transport the confu missionary to Bahamas, the city that is limiting the building of Oxford.Of what possible use could a galley be in pigs?????
If we hire a spy instead before an engineer in Siberia we risk having to delay starting Oxford as this uni may not be ready in time.
Attaching the GG on the warrior doesn't waste the GG. It gives us a free macemen essentially, and the leadership promotion gives us our 2nd GG and future GG sooner rather than later.
Edit: and if we use LC's plan it gives us the Heroic Epic option in Moscow before a University would be built in Moscow
I haven't had much of a problem building the university in Siberia in time. It is not the limiting city in my tests and I've been running a spy.

Nope. I tested this just now. The 2X GG points are based solely on the base XPs gained. So when a leader with leadership wins a 1XP battle and gains 2XP, we gain 2GG pts.Does the increase in XP from the leadership promotion get translated into extra GG points?
