Bad1: The Mesopotamia Conquest!

[homeyg]

Played but I didn't have time to make a turn log (10 turns, btw).

After all, all we are doing is general expansion.

Pre-turn – load up Eric Sumo’s new LP. Massive
Lower lux by 20%. Why you may ask? So do i!

IBT- pheonicia kicks us out.

1- Raga warrior > worker.
Change Babbling Brook from settler to granary.
We can trade for some 172g. no real need right now. So I wait.

IBT- nada

2- pheonicia get cuniform for 100g.
We can get myst now, but I don’t see the point of it. Later is better.

IBT - nope.

3- not paying for myst pays up goodtime!

Build Drunken Furriae (has wines and furs) > rax.

4- up lux. Down sci a bit.
Farmstead worker > rax.
Pop a hut for 25g.
Got to suez.

Fiddle with sliders.

Ibt - a warrior almost dies to a barb.

5- IRRIGATION IS IN.
Now, a dilemma.
Horses or spearmen?
Our geography dictates horses, so I point it that way.
Due in 13 turns @ 100%.

Raga worker > rax (those BGs and hills will be nice shield sites)

Contact made with Cleo and Hanni (Egypt and hittieites)

Harran worker > rax.

HBR in 9. 20% lux.
We have 215g.
There is THE WHEEL out there. We can buy it and 36g from Babylon for any of our techs.

sorry for foggy skies. a momentary lapse of reason.

 

[Beorn-eL-Feared]

Will try and crowd control the riotees. Got it, play tonight or tomorrow.

 

[Bucephalus]

These workers will go into the citys to get those 3 settlers faster.

lurker's comment: Not a good move; having foreigners in your cities leads to w/w problems if you go to war with their civ.

 

[Abaddon]

Hmm, perhaps your right... i just figured foreign workers are so lame at working, an war is quite a long way off... but then again... this is my first SG.. ive never had to justifiy my play and put it up for scrutiny!

:kudos: to Soul on the names.. makes me smile

looks like a good lil turnset.


Also, i dont use any of the programs with civ.. like civassist or whatever.. would people reccomend i do , an learn how to use them?

i believe abbadonmeant the home workers go back.
right?
but why get them back into towns anyways?
we needmore workers out.
many more.

lurker's comment: As I understand it, she/he meant to add the traded foreign workers to the city populations in order to speed-up Settler production. It not only creates the w/w problem that I mentioned, but it also increases the chances of your cities 'flipping'.

 

[Abaddon]

He is right im afriad, i bumped up city size by joining the workers.

 

[Beorn-eL-Feared]

I'm afraid joining workers is an awful move, from my standpoint. Better tiles is usually just as good as more tiles, early, and once you get 3+ fully worked tiles the extra pop shrinks to insignificance, then nuisance. More workers. More.

 

[Beorn-eL-Feared]

Houston, we have a problem:



If someone could dig into their PediaIcons the things I need to type under burial mound I'd be infinitely grateful (braces for impact against jokes of infinity, hoping there's no other mathematician readin the thread ).

Until I get an answer, I request a swap

 

[Tribute]

Interesting. Has that happened to me before? Yes it has.... (It happened when I made my graphics 'better')

 

[soul_warrior]

BEF. sent you the pediaicon files (both from the civ3 and c3c folder)
if you need others, pray tell

now fix it!

 

[Abaddon]

*cough*

you fixed yet B?
