960AD - Informational Poll - What to do with Hengest?

FortyJ · Jan 14, 2003

This poll is informational only. It is an attempt to better determine what to do our newest Great Leader, and if applicable, where to do it?

Desipte the informational nature of this poll, all citizens are encouraged to participate and voice your opinions here and in the corresponding discussion thread.

I say Ise!!

donsig · Jan 14, 2003

Let's build Smith's in the Southwest Province!

Chieftess · Jan 14, 2003

I say Nocs! It's close to the Babylonian city within our border!

Veera Anlai · Jan 14, 2003

Let's go Pensacola! It... Er... Has a cool name ^_^

Octavian X · Jan 14, 2003

Let us build Mr. Smith a Trading Company, and that company be placed in Bavaria!

As the Lord Mayor of our glourious capital city of Bavaria, I fully support building Smith's Trading Company in the city.

Veera Anlai · Jan 14, 2003

Erm... Ahem... Names aside, I believe it is a bad idea to waste the production of one of our large cities to produce this wonder. Of all our cities, Bavaria is in very little need of the extra culture, and does not need to build the wonder. I would suggest using one of our smaller cities, such as Ise, Dapperdan, or Pensacola. All have their respective benefits and disadvantages.
Pensacola for safety (Very low chance of Capture/Culture Flip.)
Dapperdan for it's high defense (Well defended due to hill and gems)
Nocsfiedera to be a culture buffer (May convert Babs to *us*, but we also risk losing Nocs to *them,* along with our wonder)

There are other choices obviously, but those three stick out in my mind... Obviously, it's up to the people, but I'd caution against putting all our Wonders in one basket. Bavaria has better things to do than build yet *another* wonder for their collection, such as building units to retake our lost Northern Province!

Immortal · Jan 14, 2003

I vote for dapperdan.

puglover · Jan 15, 2003

Build an Army so we can conquer the world! :evil:

FionnMcCumhall · Jan 15, 2003

i vote we wait for newtons as it will help our scientific trait

Donovan Zoi · Jan 15, 2003

@Fionn, sorry but:

a. we need to build something now so we have a chance to get another Great Leader.

b. Newton's may give us a Golden Age we are not ready for yet.

I voted for Smith to set up shop in Kuhkaff. No particular reason; I just think a trading company would fare much better in an established city and not off in the mountains.

Shaitan · Jan 15, 2003

I like Kuhkaff or Valhalla. Valhalla is better for a Trading company as it is coastal so I voted that in this poll.

I believe That the poll should note the cities where Hengist can be used in the first turn as that is a critical item for me and many other voters.

Fier Canadien · Jan 15, 2003

I voted for Dapperdan because it has all the advantages of Nocsfiedera plus the hill defensive. And it may also help to calm down the Bab culture just to the south.

Cyc · Jan 15, 2003

Sorry, I can't see putting a Great Wonder on the coast for easy capture. I voted Kuhkaff.

I chose these cities, because they are all reachable in one turn.

EDIT: I decided to double-check my work after posting my last post.... It is true that the cities listed above represent the cities that Hengest can reach in one turn. However, in my initial assessment, I neglected to consider the 1/3 MP required to still rush the wonder. If Hengest uses up all of his MP getting to his destination, he would not be able to rush the project until next turn. Therefore, Civanatoria and Pensacola (sorry Veera

) should be grouped with the "other city" category representing those locations that cannot be rushed this turn.

donsig · Jan 15, 2003

Ok then, the Civanatoria and Nocfiedera votes should remain in the Southwest Province and should be given to Nocsfiedera!

Kennelly · Jan 15, 2003

I voted Kuhkaff,if it mustn't be on the coast,don't build it there.

Veera Anlai · Jan 15, 2003

Yes, well then, if I had to vote for another city than Pensacola, I'd choose Nocsfiedera...

Cheetah · Jan 15, 2003

I vote Nocsfiedra. Put some pressure on the Babs!

Gingerbread Man · Jan 15, 2003
