3000BC [Preturn]: Now let's see where we are going.. so far looks good.
I just noticed a funny thing: time will be AD after a while, but we'll still be researching the AA techs...
Reset personal prefs and press enter.
IBT: Entremont settler > settler. Not sure if this is the right choice... but I'm hopeless in counting on when the settler factory starts. Let's hope I'm right this time.
2950BC [1]: Settler SW, worker irrigate plains.
William finds the Persian border in a quite straight line South from Entremont.
2900BC [2]: Settler S, Wallace S.
2850BC [3]: Exploration, settler S.
2800BC [4]: William heals for one turn, it was wounded for some reason.
IBT: Entremont settler > warrior.
2750BC [5]: The first settler will settle S-S-SW-SW from Entremont, on a forest at a river. Let's hope I don't mess up these totally...
2710BC [6]: Alesia founded. > warrior.
The newer settler goes SE to a mountain and sees a Persian warrior - spear pair. Also a cow is seen and the rivr where Alesia is continues in the South. I'll go for the cow.
Change Entremont to settler.
Lower luxtax to 20%.
2670BC [7]: Gah! The Persians moved just to where I was gonna settle...! Ohwell, move the settler to the South, next one may settle there.
Lower luxtax to 10% as Wallace now arrived to MP duties in Entremont.
IBT: Persia starts to build the Pyramids...
2630BC [8]: Enya and Shasha are now roading the tile S of Entremont.
The settler explores a bit to see where would be the best settling spot... Looks luike there are a nice amount of rivers here.
2590BC [9]: Settler moves towards possible settling spot. Now let's hope those idiotic Persians don't move into the way again...
IBT: Ah, they don't.
Entremont settler > settler. Looks like a great 6- turn settler factory.
2550BC [10]: New settler NW, the old SE one N.

ok, nice set ankka. looks like a land bridge to the east. next player should try to get that pump setup for 4T cycle as the persian are coming north

sorry ankka, it wasn't meant as a criticism, just a note. you got 3 settlers during your turns so that means you were doing great. it's just that now were down to size 2 and we can't keep that rate up too much longer. a steady 4T rate will help for the long haul. probably 1 or 2 warriors between the next 2 settlers is all it takes, and we could use the MP's right nowAnkka said:Pump set up? I missed something? Oh dear.

In debt to Mr. Geisel
no, if we maintain size 4 & 5, we can get a settler every 4T (see my notes/calc's last page before starting). later, if we get some lux and a couple MP's, we can probably maintain size 5 & 6, getting some extra gold in the process. all's well though, we are expanding nicely right nowAnkka said:IIRC we had a prefct 6- turn SF up now. Not sur, but I think so.
Oh well, if I didn't mess up more than that... good.

good luck! 2 cities are up with 2 more to follow so we should check on our research capabilities. maybe we can start towards the GLib or to IW. Like you mentioned earlier, we want to make sure we get the iron and not the persians6thGenTexan said:

2550BC Opening Thoughts. We will never be larger than size 12 so there is no need to give every town 21 squares. I would have moved Alesia closer to Entremont but that is the fun of these SG's. Eastern settler will move to river plain by Incense. Northern Settler will continue north and settle on Hill by lake. This will be our Great Library home with 3BG, 2nd Hill and 2 forests. Wallace leaves Entremont to explore Eastward. William will complete scouting south of the Persians. Alesia swapped to Temple. The long range benefits are greater with the temple than a regular warrior.
2510BC
2470BC Persia founded Antioch in a bad location....off of river next to a hill. Growth in Entremont raises tax back to 20%. Third worker defaults to forest but we need to move it to the irrigated plain.
2430BC Lugdumum founded 3 from Alesia and Entremont and starts a temple. Workers split so Enya can connect the Incense and Sasha will connect Alesia.
2390BC Following the Persian Pair east, we meet the Babylonians after they do. (Only up WC) Camulodunum founded and starts a warrior. Barbs in the area. Entremont hits 4 but settler next turn. Have to raise the taxes again w/o MP or Lux.
2350BC Entremont settler-->temple It will help happiness when we get a little larger for the 4-turn settlers. The Babylonian warrior was killed by barbs. Persian Pair take a step back. I hope the do not have more people exploring. See a hut in the south. Drop taxes back to 10%.
2310BC Hut had barbs. Persian Pair is even with us now. Alesia grew and temple is whipped. I would have to rais taxes otherwise.
2270BC Alesia temple-->warrior One Barb was defeated by William between turns. Raise taxes for Entremont.
2230BC Persian Pair is hunting barbs and I see a big empty plain to the east.
2190BC Camulodunum warrior-->temple Richborough founded SE of Alesia by sugar and starts a temple.
2150BC Incense connected. Entremont temple-->settler. Growth in 3, settler in 4. See a Babylonian border in the East.
Eastern explorer,Wallace, should head straight north. Southern explorer, William, can head back home to be a MP. Lugdunum can go to barrack next (use the whip) and start providing for our defense. Walls in Richborough would be smart being the closest to the Persians. Alesia could be used to farm workers with some irrigation. Sasha is set to road a forest that is being used and Enya is heading to connect Richborough.
What to do with the next settlers? 1.SE of Richborough on rivers but getting close to the Persians. 2.Coastal river east of Lugdunum. 3.West of Alesia to claim rest of Incense. 4.North of Entremont on coast. 5.SE of prior settlements on rivers towards Persians or on Eastern Lakes. 6.NW of Camulodunum on lake claiming silks.
I did not think about starting reseach on my turn. Check and see if any of the other civs start with Alphabet. If someone does, find them and buy it to research Writing. The Persians do not have IW yet.
I neglected military this turn so Persia my demand some $ soon. I'd give in. 20g is not much at this point in the game.

nice turns. looks like i forgot about the happiness factor. usually, during the expansion phase, i don't care and just adjust the lux tax for the settler factory, even up to 30% or so if needed. however, having the temple is nice and the lux hooked up will help as well. your note about city size is right on, we will never grow beyond size 12 so we can pack them in if we want. in fact, for this scenario, that is the best option.
