Domestic Issues

This thread is for discussion of the domestic issues facing Team FREE.

It is Turn 76.

Republic is 7 turns away.

On the turn we learn Republic we revolt into it, yes?

We have one library due in 3 turns (Thombriel) and two more due in 4 turns (Kremlin and Teal domination).

With three libraries helping, we might be able to learn Republic in 6, or maybe even 5 turns.

How does revolting to Republic, and the turns of anarchy that follow, affect the building of the Forbidden Palace?

We have one more Blue Dot city to build and 20 more Red Dot cities to build. Are we still on track to have cities built by your cut-off date (which I don't remember )?

I plan to send some workers ahead of our settlers to make roads for our settlers. Should they road the new city tile (and let the city be built a bit earlier) or walk through that tile and build a road on the far side of the city that would be connected when the city was built?

Any plans for wonders. We have almost filled our continent, and war at this point isn't feasible.

 

[Kuningas]

I'm not so optimistic. We have slim changes to build the Great Lighthouse. It's the only AA wonder I would build.

 

[Empiremaker]

Why do you say we have a slim chance? Low production costal cities?

 

[CommandoBob]

We had one library complete this turn (79) in Thombriel.
Two libraries complete this next turn (80) in Kremlin and Teal domination.
Fortress of Meleet completes it's library in 3 turns.

What should they build next.

I started a harbor in Thombriel; not sure if it is the best thing to build; we can change it.

Republic is 4 turns away, no later than Turn 83.

Do we have a preferred place to build galleys?

We will learn Astronomy rough estimate in 40-50 turns. Faster than we could build the GL.

 

[Kuningas]

Yes. Revolt immediately. Remember to switch some citizens onto Scientists.
In theory we could research Mysticism in 4 turns in anarchy.

Are we still on track to have cities built by your cut-off date (which I don't remember )?

I'm not sure. Keep founding new cities.

Should they road the new city tile (and let the city be built a bit earlier) or walk through
that tile and build a road on the far side of the city that would be connected when
the city was built?

I would do the latter.

We had one library complete this turn (79) in Thombriel.
Two libraries complete this next turn (80) in Kremlin and Teal domination.
Fortress of Meleet completes it's library in 3 turns.

What should they build next.

Settlers, harbors, aqueducts are all good choices.

Do we have a preferred place to build galleys?

I would say no.
