Highest Production city

[Qitai]

Capital Size 20 city with
Factory + Nuclear plant + Manufacturing plant + Iron work + GA + Mobilization

I guess it would get something like
5(per tile)*21(tiles)*(1+1+0.5+1) = 367 shields!!!

Did I miss anything else?

Guess that is an overkill, hee hee.

Just a tad bit.. hope it never goes into disorder though

i have lots of cities, but size 30+. Do you think i should starve them so i have more production per city?

How would your shield production rise with that?

 

[Baron Scot]

i agree with shabb, how could you accomplish that with a 30+ city?

By mining food production squares.

Wouldn't that leave your people starving?

Hehe, u could make ICBMs in 2 turns in a city like that! And most wonders in less than 10 turns!

I guess if the land is good, it is possible.

Mined shield grassland produce 2/5/3 with GA, RR and Mobilization. So 5 shield with no starvation.

Add to that the coal and iron that the city is suppose to have. And perhaps irrigate a tile or two. I guess not far from that number too.

So, I guess it is possible.

Hmm... I wonder what is the highest record any one experiences so far. And well, I did not get the above. Just imagining it. hee hee.

 

[Qitai]

Limited wonders unfortunately. Since the nation is suppose to be mobilized.

In most pof my games, I build the forbidden palace close to home, thus creating a 7-9 city production base. I end up with about 8 cities with good production. I give the cities enough food to rise to about size 25, then mine all of the other food production tiles. You can end up with cities that have 180-200 shield production without mobilization. Once, I had a city with 244 shields, and then an iron popped into the hill right beside the one with coal. Iron Works!! The city ended up having 488 shield production. ICBM in one turn! Army in one turn! Most wonders in two turns!

My highest production city has always less than 200 shields per turn. What can I say...I'm a farm girl at heart. I rarely build any factory and I irrigate all of my lands because I couldn't stand seeing my beautiful grassland turning into plain or desert.

Moonsinger: my GF is the same, she's irrigatin' all over the place - in despotism...... She also wants the game to demand you clean up the land (i.e. pillage everything) just befroe you win, because then the land looks nicer

back on topic: ICBM in 1 turn - had that once, and needed it! The others started the Space3ship all long before me, but I knew I'd be able to nuke them all before they got it launched..... WWIII with nuke winter all over, but i won out on UN (yes I'm a mean sneak )

 

[Qitai]

488 shields?? Hmm.. Did you have a save of that? Like to see that. The building bonus adds up before multiple. So, unless you are saying you got 244 shields RAW before getting that iron work, you will not get 244*2 = 488 shields.

 

[Qitai]

Or did you mod your game?

 

[Lt. 'Killer' M.]

I modded mine, so resources give more bonus I have to admit.

i have never had more than a hundred but then again i rarely play long enogh to get nuclear plant or manufacturing plant
