CIVplomacy in the Ten Tribes

[Jehoshua]

Gee Jehoshua, some blokes are already calling you their leader You must have some sort of natural forum leadership!

I think its more that I've built the reputation as a naturally good administrator and political player, so people tend to rally about me in the hope of getting pulled along for the ride.

Anyways for you GaP people, i've decided to do some of my occasional sideline commentary on forum politics in the social group since Patriotic Fools act shows a lot of people really don't have the slightest idea of how to go about forum politics in this context.

anyways that is all

I propose that Bronze Working be researched when it becomes available, the warrior starts to head eastward (since it seems that going southwards would be pointless), and the scout explores our west once it is completed.

Why would we go Bronze Working?
Mining - Masonry would help us improve the Marble and would give us time to buy a Worker, IF we are not building it, which apparently we are not
What does BW have to do with anything?

 

[Jehoshua]

Bronze working gives us pointy stick men, ready and able to serve under their immortal god king.

It doesn't matter, because for what it seems, we are gonna be building the GL or a Library
If we would like an offensive approach why not better go construction for CBs and then IW for turn 80 or something and rush?
Have you read the 2 approaches I wrote? Everybody went for Science..

 

[Jehoshua]

science is necessary for all things. We have to wait and see to percieve what will come to pass.

I can't tell if this is supposed to be a command, call for vote, or discussion with other players. There's too much in here to be either a command or call for vote. I'm taking it to be discussion.

 

[Slvynn]

ooc. I propose GL>Oracle>NC slingshot, with Aristocracy, and monument just after pyramid, before GL. Science NEcessary for all things, and food (Landed Elite) necessary for good science output doubled with early NC.
Oracle provide that fast SP to get both Aristocracy and Landed Elite, and also 1 GS point / turn

OOC:
Oh no God Sake, I had too much with the GL thing, now building a MONUMENT before is really stupid, since we are unlocking it with Legalism, AND building THE ORACLE after the GL just basically carves our Tomb
I have seriously been attacked by the AI on Prince at turn 80
AND it would be a waste, 3 monuments and 3 aqueducts to the trash because we took a hundred turns to settle 2 more or 3 more cities
Seriously

ooc
if you talk this ooc way and mechanics wise, i do this on Immortal/Deity sucesfully - i build Amphies or Operas with Legalism, At least Amphiteatre in capital. Building monuments with it is complete waste.
King is nutshell level where by doing this slingshot we will be even more powerful.

So as i said, using legalism for monument in capital is complete waste, and this means you get faster honor or rationalism, which completely neccessary for SV

I know you do not like that it somehow advance culture, but undrerstand that SPs are must have components in order to have proper domination (honor) or science (rationalism)

But we will have no army, we will have no cities
You cannot react as efficiently if the AI attacks on turn 80.

As long as we can have Warrior, Scout and Oligarchy we will repell any attack on Kind during GL>Oracle>NC

We will steal workers from City States, and improve resources we have and sell them in order to buy settlers once NC is done.

Especially that Monument already started prior Pyramid became aviable. We will only benefit by finishing it first.

Ok well I don't know and this is not of my preference, but lets see what surrounds us and wait for the opinion of others, if they would write it.
