Finish the AP
Finish the settler - settle one east of the bananas
For all the other cities - granaries barracks cats (axes if they fit into the whipping schedule)
For the workers - roads and farms, or do we want some cottages
tech Alphabet, but run the tech slider to 0% once we have construction
pause if I run into some one new or get DoWed or other weirdness happens
I have relooked at all technical stuff on how to do the section properly. I'm unclear on how to start up or initiate the buffy log
. How do you start it up?
Also when do we switch into Theo?
Bombay won't need a granary until Vijay has whipped itself senseless and gives up the deer because it can't afford to grow anymore. I'm not sure on the timing, but don't "waste" hammers on the granary until it'll do some good. We have barracks in Bolly, Drona, and Delhi--I'm not sure we want to spend the hammers for barracks in other cities right now.
What's the collective opinion about this?
Otherwise, yes, cats first priority, then maybe another axe or two. I'd like to have one spear for the north and one for the east just so we don't get caught with our pants completely down if a Toku shows up with horse units. If you see any of those, obviously build more spears. Archers are cheap, so maybe a couple of those if it frees up more axes for the front. I wouldn't mind chopping a couple forests by Bolly to get more cats--we want to hit Toku hard and quickly. Speaking of forests,
do we want to chop the deer forest by Holy Cow, or save it for 1hpt since we'll always be working that tile?
Probably not a lot of immediate need for more cottages since we'll be whipping and/or working as many mines as possible. Higher priorities are connecting the bananas city, pasturing the cows for Holy Cow, and chopping. We'll need to marble quarried, but Bananas needs to grow a bit before we need that. But after that, yeah, more cottages for the future won't hurt.
Seriously, write down the things that should be checked every turn: when will we lose the corn, does anybody have horses or new units, how many units in Osaka, what is Toku researching, etc.
Switch into Theoc just before units will be completed. Delay that if possible/sensible by switching to another unit type. But we're probably talking around 3 turns. (Staying in OrgRel helps our cities constructing buildings, particularly the AP--make sure that forest N of Drona is chopped ASAP to get the OrgRel bonus.)
See
here for the BUFFY instructions. (Conveniently linked from the Ref post, ahem.) The path will be different for Windows7. Just find out where the Autolog (or Logs) directory lives and then type in the full path. Have the BUFFY log record everything (which I think is the default). After you've played, search for "Gandhi.txt", open the file, copy the contents, and then paste it into your post.
