Inca strategies

[lennoxl]

Hi guys,

i'm playing with Inca (BTS) and Huyana has got Agriculture and Mysticism as init tech. In the few games I played i've gone for Buddism and rush for Oracle. I always make a Worker as first unit.... But I think it's not a good start, because the worker has, if no animals around, nothing to do.... it's a waste of time.
What can I do to take advantage of Inca's init tech? Maybe is it better to build a Quechua and a Settler so i can expand early?

Another things that slow down my empire development is about Wonder costruction. As Industrious i alway try to rush as many Wonder as possible (Oracle, Pyramids ecc..) but sometimes I think I need more settler. How many settler do you build in the first 30 turns? Is a matter of territory or else?


Thanx,

lennox

1. Dont build a worker until after you have researched three of these five techs: bronze working, agriculture, mining, pottery animal husbandry.

Incas can do 2 things:
1. Build 5-6 quechas and go kill your neighbour
2. Build stonehenge while u wait for priesthood


THEN you can build settler but.. use cottage improvement on all river tiles! For great science..

I posted this Inca thread a while ago:

Check it out you might get some build/research/war ideas.

build some Quechas, steal some workers. You can play a very balanced game with Inca given their ability to build fast wonder, high culture UB, super strong early UU and strong CE.

Have fun!
