Instruction Thread, Sat. 3/19 4pm MST 6pm EST 2300 GMT

[DaveShack]

This is the instruction thread for the play session to be held Saturday 3/16, 4pm MST 6PM EST 2300 GMT.

If the recent discovery of horses results in delays in completing instructions then the session may be delayed. The scheduled time overlaps the Arizona Wildcats 2nd round game in the NCAA Tournament, so my attention is not likely to be focused on the chat if we play

[edit]
Delay in this case means days, not hours. I'm thinking Monday. It would be unfair to expect anyone to post instructions before they are confident in what the people want. If our leaders are comfortable then we can press on, but no need to be in a huge hurry given that horses are at stake.

Starting save


Notice, this is not a continuation of Wednesday -- that was already done on Thursday. Instructions should be fresh ones. We have discovered 4 new civs and traded for Wheel. I'm really expecting someone to say it's not ready to play.

Had I known there was a turnchat on Thursday... I would've come up with new instructions. But, seeing that it's in a few hours.... (I was going to copy/paste the Wednesday chat instructions, since it was a few days).


Instructions:

Assuming that's out next location...

Turn 3: When the workers finish their road, head to site 2.
Turn 4: Build a road. (2 turns)
Turn 6: Move onto the cattle.
Turn 7: Irragate the cattle. (2 turns).
Turn 9: Move 1 tile south of the cattle.
Turn 10: Mine the bonus grassland.

Turn 7
Chatlog

We met the Hittites. Save stopped on turn 7 to discuss the Indian Iron Working trade. Dutch have it too, but it's more expensive.

Just looking at the save, and seeing the Dutch's 3 wheat doesn't look good. The Dutch are gonna settler flood everyone at this point, and we're getting pinned in. It might be time to switch to "DG2-viscious" mode. (no Stuck, don't even think about it!)
