More info about the current status of the cities

Things are looking rather good in this province, but it still suffers from very low production since no offshore platforms are in place yet. Maybe we should focus a bit more on those next session. :)

Spycathcer

Severe unhappiness problems due to no banking system. The celebrations were extraordinary noticeable in this city (increasing its size to 17 pop points) as most citizens here spent their money on booz and stuff. Unfortunately it left them with bad economy and now they have to go all the way to the bank in Athenae in order to get loans. This makes them rather angry. Perhaps we should help them out by building a nice bank right on the spot. Rushing the platform currently in production would cost 250 gold and increase the production by 9 shields, which is a good thing. After the platform and bank, a factory would be nice here. Those poor bankrupt citizens need a place to get a decent job, so they can pay back their loans. :D Then maybe some more freights.

Sixchan

If we change the library being built to an offshore platform and rush it for a mere 278 gold, it would provide this city with a much needed wopping 10 shields. Who can resist such a bargain? ;) Adding a factory would make this city a valuable piece indeed. Sewer system for further growth and bank for happiness would also be nice.

Unknown City

Apparantly missed out on the celebrations, since it lacks a marketplace. Now when other cities are better suited for military production, building that marketplace would be a good idea. Bank, freights for trade routes and sewer system would ensure Unknown City is not left out of the party-frenzy next time. If we can afford to rush bulid an offshore platform sometime in between it would be nice to do so, but that is IMO no priority.

Joespaniel

A bank could be useful here, as could a sewer system and another freight for the last trade route. Offshore platform will increase its usefulness every time this city grows from now on.

Mpondo

An offshore platform followed by some micromanagement (movement of 2 workers from non-shielded grassland to ocean) would result in 7 more shields. The old que of bank and freights will then be carried out in less than half of the time otherwise needed.

Thunderfalls

An offshore platform will be useful as this city grows. Building an aqueduct and some freights will make sure this city benefits from the next celebration.

St. Leowind

The coastal fortress being built here is no longer needed now with the threat from Chineese and Mongols gone. This are is now a peaceful place in the middle of our territory and the fighting goes on at other places. St. Leowind would benefit if the fortress is changed to a harbour, followed by temple as the old que says. Adding a marketplace after this is probably good.

Please post your comments and stuff so United Fanatica has the chance to benefit from your wast and ultimate wisdom. :)
 
I'm rather touchy about my waist I'll have you know and shall not be letting the United Fanatica benefit from it at all! ;) My wisdom, however, I'm happy to share. :)

If we changed production in Spycatcher from an OS to bank now and finished it then we would not need so many entertainers and can get to work on an OS with far more shields. We will be making enough profit by then to be able to rush it in a few more turns. I agree that happiness is a problem here and although capturing the CfC will go a long way to remedying that, we will need the infrastructure to deal with any growth here.
Unknown has been producing military for some time now and I agree that it needs to be built up before it can start to produce the hardcore, many shield-requiring stuff like battleships and bombers. If we can start with the basics before diving in to make an OS then we will see the benefits in quicker growth. Has it got a harbour yet?
I like your micromanaging idea with Mpondo and agree that a harbour is better in St Leo than a coastal fortress.
Great job Spice! :goodjob:
 
No arguments at all, really. I'm assuming that 'OS' is offshore platform.

I think the OS vs. bank debate could be decided by the slider information that we decide upon. A bank first if we opt for 10% luxuries (Spycatcher will have to have 3 entertainers) and the OS if we go for 20%.

How's that sound?
 
Your thoughts on bank vs platform sounds nice to me. :) (duke, I left my spelling error so people won´t think you are insane :D )
 
Agree St. Leowind does not need Coastal Fortress at this point, but might Marketplace first be better than a harbour? It would be nice to get this little village on board for the next round of celebrating.
 
Agree that Leowind deserves his namesake city to participate in the next celebrations. :D Marketplace before harbour is probably a good idea, with temple in between.

Updated the ques in the summary according to the discussions. :)
