Jumpmasters 1B: Power is Knowledge (Vanilla, GOTM mod - Emperor - No research)
- Thread starter Karasu
- Start date
@Gator: You're right! We only need the lighthouse. Don't forget that also gives us safely on seas squares. Then with Chivalry and Bagatur Hordes we can finish this off. One more tech and Ch'ongju is all we need, so why worry about our rep?

Welcome back nikof 
I think we should try to put you in the roster right after Mistfit's turns.
@AlanH & Karasu
Should we revamp the lineup now that nikof is back and Karasu is leaving for most of the month? Something like:
- Mistfit - up
- Nikof
- AlanH
- Grunthex
- DJMGator13: just played

@DJMGator13: Looks good to me 
@Karasu: If you're still listening, have a great vacation ...
@Mistfit: I just looked at the save. Before you use the leader to build the palace, we have a stack of shields in Beijing. I recommend we use them for a one-turn unit - we only waste 4. Otherwise we waste all of them. Also noted that we have an entertainer there who could be a taxman.

Ehm... right, folks, just wait till the 3rd of August before you bury me 
I'll still be around until Monday and who knows, I might even get to play another round -even though I concede it is quite unlikely.
I will surely check the forum until the very last minute!
About our rep. I agree with you, who cares. The hell with it. Let's crush the Baekje (and the Han at this point), the argument for the great lighthouse is simply compelling.
It's a nice idea to use all those barbs for elite training, though. We might as well give them something to do while we prepare for the next war.

You were off packing last time we heard from you! Five days to pack? Man, that sounds like a heck of a trip! Why don't we try to give you one quick burst before you disappear then?
[EDIT] Looking at gator's roster, p'raps we could fit you in between nikof and me?

Why don't we just go Karasu - nickof - AlanH.
I'm not going anywhere soon. Lucky Buggers. I can play early next week or whenever. Heck I could even use it as an excuse to see my family. Either that or you can wait for me to play tonight and get the turns back late, late tonight or early in the A.M. Just let me know.

I do think however that we should consolidate our thoughts about the next turn set.
The following is what I can see from scanning the thread that we want to try to accomplish in the next turns:
1.) Before the Leader gets to Bejing - pop a unit out of there
2.) use that leader to get the Palace in Bejing
3.) Get clown out of Bejing hire tax guy
4.) Act like a true Mongol and attack the Han and Baejke despite our rep hit
5.) build galleys for troop transport
6.) no more cats
7.) dont play with the barb isle until our UU comes on line
Anything else?

Welcome back nikof!
Ok...really crappy day at work today. Suprise MIOSHA inspection. I'm in the mood for some butt kick'n. Slip on my Fur Cap and bow and ride on to world domination. Ok maybe not in my turns but you get the idea.
PreTurn:
Waste 4 shields in Beijing (oops I've been spelling that wrong) Pop a ManBow
Switch Clown in Beijing to taxwoman
Move troops out of Baekjen territory. I'm willing to ruin our rep but I will not use a borderline exploit by making peace while in territory and next turn attacking again. So I'll Get everyone out and then declare and go back in.
Upgrade 1 sword to Turghaut Cavalry. (I had to see what one looked like) Cool two horses.
Hire some tax people in Hutag to keep from riot - same in Shanghai
IBT:
Ok I guess the moving of troops was unneeded I get booted anyway. Good that's quicker.
We survive 3 barb galley attacks one promo
Beijing MB to Palace
Turn 1 (360AD)
Beijing Palace goes from 1000 turns to 1. This is the 2nd GL I've inherited in as many days from Gator. It's a good position to play after the Gator
Declare on the Baekje...
Lots of workers and lots of positioning of troops
Starve Kwangju
WW @ 33% hire some tax people and clowns
IBT
Palace finishes start Tur Cavalry
Almarikh Tur to Tur

Mandalgovi roits oops...missed one
Russians building Sistine
Turn 2 (370AD)
Chosogabe, Russia (Brown Border), England, Khwarizmia all up Monarch, Theo, Chivalry Lowest price seen 900. I can't see our prices going down much so I buy it.
Sell Republic to Tok for 50
No one else has more than 10 gold so I skip selling for pennies
Call Up Han and Declare
Macau
4 vGospodars -vs 1 spear 4 retreat 1 dead...Gods of RNG not with me yet
1 Elite archer there next turn
Kunsan
vGos Ret -3 hp vs Bae Pink guys -2hp
eGos -2hp kills Pinky
eGos -2hp kills 2 hp Pinky
Kunsan is ours again +5 gold
Move gallies around.
The barb island is pretty big and lots of barbs hanging around on it
Turn up lux to 30% and fire some tax and clowns
IBT
Holy cow 5 spears come pouring out of Macau into our territory and they still have some left in the city
KK Settler to Settler
Turn 3 (380AD)
Ok I'm taking a huge chance here. I don't have any reinforcements in the Northern Area at all
I have 1 Elite MB and 3 redlined Gospodar and 1 full strength vGospodar with in reach of Macau
Elite Bowman Kills Vet Spear flawlessly
Vet Gos kills 2nd Vet Spear -2hp
1hp Gos kills Reg Spear ...and he still has 1 bow
1hp Gos kills Reg Bow and...
Macao is ours!!!
Start Courthouse
And the 5 spear mysteriously...hehehe...disapear...Thank Loki...
Settle Nalayh on penisula Starts Rax
Attack 2 loose footman out of Ch'on kill one one kills one of ours he's redlined

IBT
Tok is brave and lands a settler pair on the Barb Island
The Barbs go nuts
I must have done somthing wrong because 3 towns riot
Wow this makes no sense they want to expand my palace after the riots. I add the top floor
Turn 4 (390AD)
Attack of Ch'ongju
It took 4 brave Gospodar to do it but the city is ours! And...
IBT
Lots of Barb Stuff
Turn 5 (400AD)
Position troops and galleys for the ride to the barb island
Hand Down Report:
This was very fun but it is late and my partner called and said that he is
all over the place so it looks as if I don't get a day off this week. Great...
I'm going to have to pass this one off to let you guys get some fun in.
There are three settlers wandering around the East island looking for a place to put up more mongol towns
I have an Idea on the Barb Island. Look for the next post.
The two horse units are really cool. They move 9 on roads. I've not used one to fight so no GA yet.
We need some settlers up in the northern area of the mainland to fill in some spots.
It looks as if the other civs are running out of room because Settler pairs are showing up. Tok tried on on the Barb island. I'm Afraid he did not survive that
I appoligize for the short turn set but RL calls.
Save for the next better player

Pic from Pre palace and Post Palace. Over 100 gpt savings on corruption.
This is the area I thought would be good for unit training on the Barb Island.
It makes a perfect funnel for the barbs to come down the red lane and SPLAT! We kill 'em and become elite. We Can leave an Empty city behind us to spur them on.
It's a Zoo out there. Sorry Got some new paint software.

Good turns (even if only 5 
)
The riots you experienced were due to WW, so you never had a chance to adjust for them. From what I've seen WW is added at the beginning (production phase) of the turn and that is what casued them to riot. Because you ended the wars those unhappy people will now stop their anti-war protest and go back to being productive members of society.

If Karasu can get 1 more in before he leaves for vacation, I say he would be up with you ondeck. If he can't get to it, than you're the man.
I thought I took chances sometimes, but Man
