bbp I don't understand your table. What does Total represent it seems bigger than subtotal plus plastics?
Agree, except we also have GP backups other than the 5. I started running some Eng to complete critical builds, but then got into the practice without thinking. Should fire all, most likely.Other than the cities generating the 5 great person GA (and a few mongel backup cities IIRC), every city should be running all scientists or all merchants. Running engineers really only makes sense if there is a critical build that can be sped up by hiring them.
Those numbers are about what I expected. Our slider is currently only slightly above 1:1 gold-beaker ratio, which made me assume that we're better off running Sci in a city with, for instance, Lib only. Not sure that's correct. It would also be quite painful to switch cities on a turn-by-turn basis... Maybe you could analyze it more?In this game, I didn't change any builds but just changed scientists and engineers to merchants in non-gp-producing cities and the science rate went from 3385 and +190 at 50% to 3476 and +110 at 80%. These are very close to the same. I guess each city could be looked at individually and hire scientists if there are more science multiplying buildings and merchants if they are the same (i.e. no muliplying buildings, one of each, etc.) or there are more wealth multiplying buildings. This can be tweaked to come up with the most efficient method.
We have more than 5x his power. Can he even DOW?Stalin, Chuchill and Gandhi are all WHEOOHRN. Churchill could be a pain if he attacks us.
Yes, I started scrubbing it earlier. That revolt is bloody annoying - it just restarted the same turn it ended.Why is the gold near Hangzhou under American control when it is 66% Russian and only 9% American? Is it because Chengdu is in revolt?
Agree.Don't forget to power (coal or hydro) all of the factories not on the mainland. Ideally we have powered factories (and Observatories and Mining Inc.) in most cities on the turn we learn superconductors and we can crank out Research Institutes in 2 turns or less.
Yes.Are we planning to build Rock N Roll and/or Eiffel Tower?
Churchill was crushed before we made peace. I don't enough about this...If the stupid morons started planning while we had about equal power, then no our current power will NOT stop them from attacking.
Why Rheims? We should slow it down. We're getting a GM from Fish.T+1, Pigs 97%GS
T+7, London 64%GP, 14%GE, 12%GSpy (or something like that), 5%GA/GM
T+8, Fish >94% GM
T+12, Bahamas 62%GSpy, 14%GP, 13%GE, 11%GA (ugh)
T+13, Rheims -- no idea what the mongrel %'s are but some combination of GM, GE (small), Gspy (very small)
T+15, GP Farm -- >95% GA
Agree with bcool. Let's see if we can use Moscow. London also has 2GG and Paris 1, so maybe they can help with build-up for Roos.edit: We should be able to conquer Stalin using just three cities: Bermuda (build marines), Jamaica (build galleons), and Yaroslav (build frigates to take down defenses).
He has something like Gren+LB in both St Pete and Novgorod. Stalingrad, on the other hand, has: 7 Gren, 3 LB and 7 tactical nukes. This is as of 1-2t ago, when our Frigate passed through there.Or does he actually have a stack on his tiny island?
GPP plan is as above - with team decision on whether to move Rheims before or after GP Farm.
Here is a proposed tech plan: plastics(3)--radio(2)--computers(3)--superconductors(3)--fission(2)--artillery(2)--rocketry(2)--fiber optics(4)--fusion(4)--satellites(3)--composites--genetics(3)? I think the stasis chamber is the cheapest part we can leave until the end, although the health would be nice earlier...
might as well send a spy or 2 over to stalin's capital asap. With a city revolt and some marines the capital will fall on the first turn.
