great prophet faith purchase

[KaptainK714]

I've trying to use the Tradition 4 city start, but i'm having an issue with GP being purchased with faith automatically even though i have 'remind me later' selected. Is there a way to truly wait? it's eal;y and i'll get Rationalism in 5 turns and wanted to buy a GS

Sorry, no. That option does not delay auto-spawning of GPrs in pre-Industrial eras. You either need to cut back on faith generation or find a faith sink that will repay your faith investment with faith on later periods (such as a religious building).

A very good "sink" is Inquisitors if you can't build religious buildings. This does depend upon timing though. If Industrial Era is still a long way off you may be better off spawning the Great Prophet (increasing how much you can save) and planting a Holy Shrine. (increasing your faith per turn output)
