City Governor Report: The Province Of Charon 1863

[Dexter]

I apologise for taking so long to do this but I was just waiting to see what the final name for the province would be and to see if their would be an election.
Ok I have posted below all the city statistics for those who do not have MPG Civ2, unfortunately though I can't get any screenshots, if any one can help with this please do.
Finally, I want everyone to make helpful comments on my recommendations. Thanks

I hope that's everything. As you can see I'm factory crazy This is becuase as soon as cities have factories other improvements are quicker to build and that makes updating a city far quicker. I didn't bother with libraries as we have 0% science right now.
All ideas are apreciated, thanks.

 

[Mr Spice]

Great work, Dexter! You might want to keep the city info in a sticky summary though so we always know where to find it and then a separate discussion thread where the rest of us can post our ideas and comments. But it is your own choice of course.

About the ques, I think we should focus on growth and happiness to get the most out of our current celebrations. This means building (rushing ) temple, aqueduct and marketplace in all cities that don´t already have them and sewer system/bank in the larger ones. The rest looks fine to me. Again, great work!

Dexter:

This is a great job! I'm glad you decided to take over a province - though I didn't even realize that Charon Provice was so large! There will be more cities added as well - enough so that we may hvae to look into making it two provinces. Even if we do, you've got enough of a head start that you could probably handle both.

Your ideas on factories are well founded. I try to get them where I can as well and rush them when I'm able. These are still pretty new cities for us, so we'll have to work on them.

However, we are in a unique situation as Mr. Spice mentions. In celebration mode we are making some decent cash and trying to grow every city possible. There will be a fair amount of rushing items during this time, and for the most part things like aqueducts, sewer systems, harbors, temples and markets will take the priority.

I have all of your stuff written down now, and I'll get in everything possible as you mention (by the way - good spot in noticing Karakorum is undefended!). However, I may sneak in with some of the items I've listed and rush them where possible so your cities can grow!

Thanks again!

 

[duke o' york]

I too was surprised by the Karakorum defensive situation and suggest that we need to remedy it as soon as possible. What do people think about changing the temple to build a mech straightaway? I am unsure as to the presence of enemy units on that island and so don't know how pressing the need for defenders is. Of course eventually we won't need to ahve defenders in all our cities but for the time being then I think that defense should be a priority until we have "nullified" any "potential Roman or Mongol threat" in the course of our "peace-keeping" duties.

 

[Zwelgje]

I disagree, every city should have one defender at least. A ship can come through unseen and a unit can land and take the city in one turn. Of course we will have no trouble taking that city back again but a lot of improvements will be gone then and we will have lost a lot of population. So a defensive unit for every city is a necessity IMO.

 

[Leowind]

Better than rushing a Mech Inf, is there a unit nearby we could "borrow" or even reassign to Karakorum's defense? that would negate the necessity of disrupting the build queue

Just realising that Kev has already played some turns, so he's taken care of this one way or another, so sort of silly to keep suggesting solutions

Unfortunately that only works if you don't have your printer connected and my dad won't let me unconnect ours


Thanks every one for the comments. I didn't realise we were trying to grow population as much as possible. Well then once we have got through the temples, market's etc then I deffinately suggest factories.

It doesn't matter if your printer is connected or not. My printer is connected and I'm pressing Alt+PrintScreen right now.
