DocT4-How to Rise as a Ruler (RaR Training SG)

Disenfranchised I know, I thought perhaps 'disenfrancised' means something like 'removing French parts' (we have the word 'Entnazifizierung' in German, could be translated to 'Disnazification') :lol:

Well, I didn't complain about the handles, only joking. 'Tsiolkovski' looks a lot less odd in Kyrrilic letters, but the forum doesn't allow for that.
Btw, it was my handle for a Star Trek board originally, derived from 'Tsiolkovski Infection'. Just found it funny to name a disease for a Rocketry pioneer...
And 'Doc' because I am indeed a MD.

Pfeffersack, I would have bet it is from Patrizier.

Isn't it nice when you can go completely off topic, since it's your own thread? ;)

Anyway, enough of this.
Disenfrancised, now that you have submitted, you're officially in the team. 1st post updated.
 
Chamdo is definitely too close to the capital (distance 3 makes less sense in RaR anyway, with road movement=2)
I knew I missed something.. didnt really have time to read all the stuff in civilopedia when I played, so prolly did many mistakes. (I always save atleast once per turn every game so easy to get the save from before the town was founded on turn 50 I think)

I should have more time to play from tomorrow.. last 2 weeks has been pretty busy in RL (havent even had time to finish COTM5 or start GOTM36 yet)
 
Here is my game.

Sorry for taking so long, I never have enough time on weekends.

Updating the log at the minute, so just the game first.

Slightly OT, but on the handles part Knappagh1 comes from a townland name just down the road a bit from where i live. Its called Knappagh (Pronounced nappa). Dont really know why i added the one bit, but like Pfeffersack, i just use it for everything online now.
 
Hi all! I would like to jon this training succession game if that is possible. I am an average c3c emperor player and a month old civfanatics lurker. I also have RaR 1.01, and i think I'll enjoy it more if I play it this way rather then alone.

Awaiting your verdict, roshee.
 
I would love to play in this SG if possible. I am a monarch level player. I have almost completed a huge regeant level R&R game, domination victory.

Is there room for one more?
 
DocT: I trying to plan my November/December Civ time and am wondering on the upcoming schedule for this one. I'm very interested in playing and plan on making this my #2 SG (after SGOTM's). I normally don't have time for more than 3 SG's + the 2 GOTMs and this is my 4th, though one is hopefully wrapping up soon.
 
Ok, let's get this started. [dance]

I simply decided to continue with Tinkez' save.

Unfortunately, my comp crashed and took my log with it, including a full MS Word page about opening moves :mad: - will come up with it in the next days.

Basically, I researched Construction to be able to mine, and built mainly production boosters. Gartokh got ransacked by Barbs once, and Sikkhim will be in a few turns.

Red dots are prime choices, the one in the N has already a Settler heading for (should be the FP city).

We're currently researching Philosophy; Spain don't even has Dyna, and Rome is about 10 techs behind.
Please comment on next build and research choices.

The Save

Roster:
DocT - just played
Denyd - up!
Gyathaar
Pfeffersack
Knappagh1
Tinkez
Disenfrancised

cizzlewalk?
(if you cannot find the time, either roshee or marconos could join)


Any objections?
 
Ok - I got it - I'll try to play tonight (this is 2nd in line) - What is our current research goal after Philosophy? - I would guess either Civil Engineering or Classical Education, are there better choices (why? asked the student).

I'll make it a goal to settle the NE red & yellow dots (want to claim the horses) and have a settler on the way to the SE red dot to claim iron. Another goal would be to stay at peace with the world for now.

Should I send a unit to pop the GH to the NW?
 
Will we be wanting to shift to Democracy/Republic? And if so how soon? Personally I'd go for democracy once we have 4-6 more cities, as another 40 shield research building and extra gold will be useful as Tech leaders...

so CoL after a free CivEng for research?
 
We're currently researching like mad, a least compared to the Civs we know (and Spain does quite well).
Classical Edu and Demo are viable suggestions, but judging from the size of our empire and the fact our cities will build nothing but Settlers, units and the Palace Gardens for a while, I'd prefer Aristocracy. Why?
 
Aristocracy gives us tea(happy people) and will allow us to build the FP. And since you have already ear marked a site for the FP, i guess the sooner we get that up and going the better.

It will also allow us to research the Republic(gov) and Vassalage(more units).

or have i completly missed the point???

My 2000th Post! Without ever even visiting the OT board :lol:

Knappagh1: Exactly. It'll be awhile before we have enough cities for the FP, but since our cities are absolutey busy ATM, a Tech revealing a resource seems the best choice for me.

Denyd: Note the Harbor in Sikkhim is a placeholder; just build anything remotely useful there that'll finish one turn before the Barb could ransack.
 
:eek: My save was chosen! [party] :beer: [dance]

Nice to see this game finally moving on. :goodjob:

I would suggest that we build a Kublai transport out of Sikkim as we should get one out exploring the coast maybe find a route to other civs. Other cities should continue pumping out settlers and as Doc suggested, the capital should build the palace gardens to maximize the tourist bonus. Now it would take 10 turns to get that.

FYI: I will be out of computer access this week from Thursday to Sunday.
 
So the research path is complete Philosophy, take Civ Engineering as the bonus and start on Classic Education.

Should I start the Palace Gardens or keep building settlers in the capital?

From the looks of those barbarians, attempting to defend against them in the AA is a waste of shields, just get out of their way and let them have some gold to go away.

I'll be playing tonight and I'll check this thread before starting.
