I would ask for this to not be a discussion thread, but that tradition appears to have died out.
 
If this poll ends in a Yes vote (It did):

  • Open the diplo screen and ask Bismarck what he will give for peace. He should offer Compass, all his cash and his world map. Accept this offer.
  • (If the Warlord doesn't give any instruction because of his absence, could you move our offensive troops into positions on the border near Tartar and Frankfurt, ready to strick when the peace deal expires (10 turns)?)
  • Stop after 10 turns.


Trade Banana's and and Rice with Julius for Fur and 3 gold per turn, this should help solve our happiness problems a bit.

If a civ from the other continent wants to trade for Guilds (or any other tech except for Education and Paper) and you think the deal is reasonable, and the beaker+gold of their offer is more than 50% of our beaker+gold offer, you're allowed to make it.

Don't change civics.

Settle on the proposed spot if this poll ends in Yes.

Stop if one of the civs on the other continent is willing to make a reasonable tech deal with us that includes us giving Paper our Education.
Stop when we have researched two techs.
 
After research on Education is finished
If we have received Compass:
Research Optics
Else
Research Engineering
End
If the Technology after Eduction finishes being researched
If Optics was Researched
Research Philosophy
Else
Research Drama
End
 
Central Amiag:

Build queues: Build anything that will help increase the cities primary function
(Riversight: Production, Xanadu: Commerce, Neapolis: Commerce and Cumae: Commerce) Otherwise build anything that is required for the nation as a whole (ie the settler needed to build the new city)

Workers also help increase the local cities primary function.
 
Warlord

Just regroup according to last TC, but make sure we occupy the coast from Cologne south to EA in order to make sure no barbarian, German or overseas nation settle there. We can use obsolete warriors and archers for this.
 
Bah, I would procrastenate until the last day, which just so happends to also be the release of BTS. Which btw I have and am getting ready to play. :woohoo:

My cities will go for growth. I want to get to max population as quick as possible. NOTA will build a settler and head for the mini-GP Farm as stated in the poll. Builds should consist of banks and other wealth/research boosters.
 
EA: Bank, University
Ainu: Market, Library
Munich: Market, Bank, emphasize growth if possible
Berlin: Market, Library if there is enough :) or Temple if :) is needed
Cologne: Courthouse, Market, emphasize growth if possible

[07/24 22:26] <Methos> Odd how that works.
[07/24 22:32] <DaveShack> Rest of that time was looking at military orders to see what, if anything, needs to move -- turns out not much as far as I can tell
