So where are we at?
i guess we're waiting on tex and microbe to weigh in. if we all agree with the research rule change, then gozpel can generate a new random start and we beginagain.
 
More lenient research so we can get some gold and removal of the "One-city- wars"

I create a new start as soon as I have time, hopefully tonight my time.

ok, no word from gozpel so i make an executive decision :)

i redraw a start and whoever posts next can take it :D then we redraw the order from there based upon the previous roster...

our new start. at least we get our own lux this time, but i smell marshland to the south :lol: i don't think we can do worse, can we?

edit: dooh, i see he's online again, well, whoever picks it up 1st still can take it

4000BC save, 2nd time's a charm?
 
My server has been out of whack for a few days and I'm almost ready to play again.

Please use the save you got there grahamiam, I bungled up. And I can't play until tomorrow, so throw me down the ladder.
 
Settle Babylon in place. Alphabet at max. Build warrior=>warrior=>warrior=> warrior=>temple

Our first warrior, Cain, heads east, runs into the ocean and spots an elephant. Then heads south along a ridge of hills. There are grapes, cows and wheat nearby in addition to the elephants and the smoking pipes.

Our second warrior, Abel, heads west and quickly runs into the ocean. He starts heading north, but reverses course on receiving information from our third warrior.

Our third warrior, Seth heads north.

Our fourth warrior, Enoch stays home.

On a fateful day in May 3100 BC, Abel meets a spear carrying man dressed in brown. His leader, Catherine, knows pottery and WC, has three cities and 10G. She won’t sell us anything. Hopefully the temple=>granary can work if we can get the tech.

thanks for picking it up bugs :) Looks like we might have some room, maybe we want a settler 1st so we can get that cow/wheat site? what do we think?

Like i stated before, we'll use the same order, beginning with the person who went 1st.

Roster:
microbe
SirBugsy <- just played
grs <- UP
6thGenTexan <- on deck
grahamiam
gozpel
 
@grs -> we've relaxed the research rules to make sure we don't go bankrupt. I have no problem with doing max to writing right now and wouldn't have had a problem if we did min. to make it easy on everyone, let's just throw out the book on research other than we must beeline for CoL. whether we do it at max or min is up to the team.

that said, we've started down that path (max research) and there's no reason right now to deviate.
 
Going max to the first tech is usually no problem. It is that second tier tech that is hard to go max to .
 
@SirBugsy/grahamian: Sorry, it seems I play commercial far too often as I presumed our first tech would already be writing. So you are right for sure about research.

PreTurn: I change Babylon to settler and see that it will come out with growth in 4.

2850BC: We see a Russian spear near out capital and get out our settler. We start a warrior next and send the other with the settler. The worker will join them.

2630BC: We get our warrior, he is named Kenan. I hope you all have a bible at home, though the names in my German version are a bit different from yours, I could still recognise that (in case you have a hard time finding it, it is in the 1st book of Mose, vers 5.

2550BC: settler/worker/warrior are in place.

2510BC: Nineveh is founded and starts a barracks as prebuild for granary.

2470BC: Mahalalel is born.

2350BC: There is no one north of us, so we have much more lands than last time. I still did not find any other civ but Russia. Russia is now up masonry, pottery, the wheel, warrior code and iron working. We are up ceremonial burial and get alphabet in 5. We could trade ceremonial burial and 3gpt for pottery or recheck our options once we have alphabet.
 
I don't have a bible so you can use whatever name you want and say it's from there, i won't know the difference (esp. old testament stuff) :)

All that land and five luxuries to boot. I've got it and will see if we can get pottery and IW. I'll do more scouting to th esouth to find some city spots towards Catherine.
 
My time is short and so are the notes.

1
2
3
4 get to drop lux to 50% and pick up 3g....Byzantine completes The Colossus.
5Alphabet-->Writing at 10% Catherine is resaerching Alphabet and will only give us Pottery and 10g for it. Abel sees a blue border so I will wait a turn.
6Biz has all 7 techs. I can now get a better deal from Catherine. Alphabet+CB+5GPT+3g for Pottery+IW+Wheel. Horses are N-N-NE of Nineveh. Iron is W-W-W-S of Nineveh. We need to get the Iron with our next settler. Nineveh switches to granary. Both Russia and Germany have 6 cities to our one.
7
8
9
10 Temple completes in Babylon. Not sure what to build next. Settoer will take 8 and growth in 9. Barrack will take 10 adn a granary 15. Next person will get to make the final decision. Gilgamesh hs arrived in the form of an Enkidu Warrior near Nineveh. Worker at Babylon has not moved. He may want to start a road east.
