The senate is under threat in this term. The inability to perform by the previous Senates in the previous terms has caused wide-spread complaints and civil-unrest in our Glorious nation. There are even plans to remove power from the senate.

President Bootstoots has appointed me to VP.

I call upon the Governors:

Octavian X - Governor of the province of Berry,
tao - Governor of the province of Audiac,
Noldodan - Governor of Sérliënorë,
CivGeneral - Governor of the Province of Endor,
Gert-JanL - Governor of Alluares,
truckingpere - Governor of the Province of Norwich.

to show our nation that the senate can be run correctly and that the senate is a cornerstone in our nation.

You are Senators ! You should be respected and looked-up on. Don't let history continue; let you get the respect you deserve. You can do this by proper slider control and proper worker allocations and proper financial management. And to vote in time on the issues addressed here.

I as VP has the task to make your votes official by posting in the Instructions thread. I will not fail you; please do not fail me.
 
Thank you for opening this thread; late, but hopefully not too late.

For the next turnchat, I have the following wishes:

The market in Cijam needs to be hurried (112 g) to build the settler for the fish site in the west. We need it urgently before we can make peace. Thus it might be good to also give some hurry the the settler, if money is available. Otherwise the war will be longer.

I don't agree to spend 232g for hurrying the granary in Ville de Buisson. It is not worth so much money.

I don't agree to spend 180g for hurrying the granary in Anarchyisgodville. The town has little food, does not need a granary, and is not at all worth the money to hurry it.
 
As military advisor, I'm asking governors to build barracks in our core "Military Cities" (based on my military cities plan), and rushing those.

As governor of Audiac, I don't approve the cash for this global rush jobs request. I might agree to individual rush jobs, if a detailed list with costs is presented.
 
Can I see the exact cities of Audiac?

Sure. Just look at the Audiac Province thread. Please note that none of them has barracks and no barracks are scheduled either. As I explained before, Audiac is on commerce and science, and Berry should be on barracks and units.

Please also note that we need money for hurrying the market and settler in Cijam for the new town to be founded in Egyptian territories and it's temple afterwards. Details can be found in my turnchat instructions.
 
We also need money to hurry temples in Buto, Pitom, and the new city to be founded in Egyptian territory
 
I've posted these instructions:

Sliders
Keep the lux slider high enough to avoid riots in more than 3 towns or 2 cities. Counter the unhappyness with specialists. Keep the science slider as high as possible but with a positive gpt. You are free to lower the sci slider if it gets us more gold, while not increasing research time.

Requested Cashrushes
Cashrushes have been requested in the Senate's thread.
- The market in Cijam needs to be hurried (112 g) to allow the building of a Settler for the fish site in the west.
- hurry temple in Buto
- hurry temple in Pitom
- hurry temple in the new city to be founded in Egyptian territory
 
*CivGeneral returns form a little expidition from the seas near the province of Endor.

I beleve we should have the lux slider high enough to at least stem the unhappyness while keeping riots to a minumum.
 
Governor Noldodan reporting for duty. *snaps off a sloppy, almost mocking salute to RM* Opinions pending.
 
And after a long and retiring trip to his own Province, Governor gert-janl enters Deux Rivières, the political heart of Fanatica again. Gert-janl is known for his dedication to the Senate and will try to be as constructive as possible in order to show all Fanaticans that the Senate can be a very effective part of our democratic government.
 
Notice to the Senate - We have just captured 3 Egyptian cities, 2 of which need to have culture rushed in them. There's also a new city that was settled within the borders of Egypt on our continent. That also needs culture rushed in it. I'm asking to rush culture in those 3 northern cities. (i.e., start a library/temple, wait a turn, and rush). This also means we need to make full use of the war chest.
 
Item 1. Cashrushes of Cultural buildings in the former-Egyptian cities, Sharkeygrad, New Morgana and Kadessa.

Treasury: 88 gold, making currently +9 gpt.

In this thread: http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=84006 peace negotiations take place; perhaps increasing our funds.

I'll allow Noldodan's and tao's vote to be changed, if they desire, because I am not sure they realised we are so low on funds.

Senators: Please vote.
 
No need to change.

I checked the save and in both New Morgana and Sharkeygrad a temple was already rushed.

The vote says, that as soon as we have the funds, we need to rush culture in Kadessa. Cash may come from lowering the science slider because we don't need 60% next turn to finish banking, or from trades. or by accumulating small amounts over the next turns.
 
I agree that culture in Kadessa is important, so as soon as we can afford it, I would support to rush a temple in Kadessa.

Slider settings are a bit difficult to decide on at this moment, since we don't know how much we need for our next tech.
Changing the Happiness Slider will result in 4 cities needing specialists (DR is one of them, so production on Sun Tzu is slowed 2 turns). But we can save a worthy 40 gpt by doing that.
If we can't change the tech slider, because it would result in a set-back of our research, this may be an option to be considered.

The way I see it now gives me the following slider suggestions:
-Science steady at 60
-Luxury down to 10
so taxes would be 30%, which gives us 49 gpt.

These extra funds can be used for any cultural rushes.
 
Remember that lowering luxuries may increase unhappiness... and that we're almost done researching Banking. *PLEASE* vote to lower science to whatever amount when there's 1 turn left. :)
