Well, a lot to digest from all that. Great report Cosmichail. Very insightful. I'm learning a great deal from this game.
It's a pity about the heated exchange, but it seems it's necessary in order to sort out this team. I admire people who speak their mind.
Back to the game. If we cant/shouldn't build a Hindu missionary, then we definitely can't build a Minaret. The Spiral would give us GPP for a prophet, and a lot of gold as we go along. Ankor Wat has gone to Hatty.
Without the second priest we certainly need Pacifism that is until the Prophet comes along, and probably NE. We might get another scientist too. As is, GP in 89 turns. With Pacifism, 44+9 for Philosophy , with NE 20 something + 10 or so to build it. This is risky because it puts us at less than 50% prophet chance.
We need a final decision from JoE on the Hindu preist, but I agree with Cosmichail that is goes against the spirit of the variant if not the rules on page 1.
Rince, Are you going to declare on Louis? If you do my advice would be to keep Tours. Also here is another spot that I think would be a good city. If we follow Cosmichail's irrigation plans then it could be irrigated from the north too. Good Prod or Commerce city.
Maybe settle it?. Others will have a view on this. It will steal the bananas from Freddy with a bit of culture.
