Hammer Overflow
Introduction
In this article, I will explain what happens between turns to the excess from a completed build. After that I will examine some potentially uses of overflow to gain some advantages. Throughout the article, any numbers I quote are from the marathon game speed but can be scaled appropriately to your game speed of choice. Also note that everything here is using Warlords 2.08 although it appears to work the same way for Beyond the Sword 3.03.
Definitions:
True Cost - The actual cost of a build
Production Multiplier - The production bonus applied to a build converted from a percent + 1
Base Cost - True Cost/Production Multiplier
Excess Hammers - at the completion of a build in a city, the total number of invested minus the True Cost
Base Hammers - Excess Hammers/Production Multiplier
