woah, bit of catching up there. Nice stuff guys (edit: argh! and girl, sorry willow, i was using 'guys' in a non gender specific manner :-). I don't think we want to completely trash our rep by declaring on china too soon. But having said that i've got nothing against doing it. :devil...

Nice work guys. Things seem to be moving along nicely. I'll try have a look at the save when i get home tonight. I think willow is rostered up as next. I'm happy to wait till she is back online, it's only a couple of days away. (i understand you may not be able to play immediately, willow)

if we ally with greece we may need to protect china slightly towards the end of the war, we don't want them taken out by greece before we get an offshore city or two from them.

i'm back to thinking we should switch site6 and site2 in the build order. The only BG in range of site2 is in use by washington. site6 has one of it's own. site1 is the best first settle for some workers but I vote for site6 after that.

hmm, ideas... i'm at work so can't check the save to see where the resources are to the north. Build site1 to pump some workers. Would it be worthwhile, in the city plan, swapping site6 and site2 in the build order? site6 has access to 2 BG's immediately and could start on some military...

This made me realise I forgot to give you a "Nice opening Capt.". Wasn't being rude or anything I just had 5 pages of posts to catch up on after the weekend and it slipped my mind. Also, my vote lies with saving for IW and getting it for a bargain price once china know it. btw, that...

:eek: I didn't know that, very handy, thanks!

the culture war up there would be tough going, it's a long way from our cap compared to greece and china.

double post, sorry. in turn 26 the c.warrior moved onto the roaded tile and was going to pillage next turn. The following turn I decided not to pillage as it felt exploitive, as far as the puppet strings issue goes. Is this kind of action dissallowed in GoTM rules? I understand anything...

preturn looks good, decided to keep alpha at max and leave the build as granary so we don't waste our chop turn 20 - 2950BC eqworker clear forest, w worker begins road on BG scout n to mt c.warrior n, spots green border north of him turn 21 - 2900BC scout ne c.warrior nw (green...

ah, the 10 gold, fair enough, i'd missed that.

I don't think we can rely on meeting china's neighbour soonish, we don't know which direction they met them from and if it was a unit on another shore we may not see them there again for a while. (and like blue box said, they may have grabbed the tech from a GH.)

have we got a consensus on our research plan? minimum or max? I too think minimum is the way to go. I am a little wary of it though as we don't know many so buying will be expensive till we get contacts abroad. On emperor I can normally get to philosophy before the ai but at a cost. I tend...

OK, i got it. Sorry for being so quiet the last couple of days. Had gf's birthday followed by my sisters, finally have an evening to myself. (don't tell them I said that) :) I've grabbed the save, will look at it shortly but probably won't play till tomorrow night.

i'm happy with the roster. My Tuesdays and Thursday evenings at the moment will probably prevent me playing on those days but i'll still be able to make the gotit/play timeframe. For reference it's 12:35pm Friday here at the time of this post. (GMT+10:00)
