Massive Humans vs Humans Game/Lets Player Tracker

I tend to get native language, definitely on the higher difficulties since it can offset the initial unhappiness that can happen upon founding a city. (So it became habit, and I'm a Spiritual leader, might as well milk that for all its worth)
I tend to beeline Oral Traditions right after that, then see what my immediate needs are.
Usually opt for for the tech that unlocks the 'Stone Tool Maker', that grants money, production and science.

P.S
Unless its radically changed, I usually try not to play spiritual leaders... but I think the very limited anarchy thing is still there.

How can spiritualism benefit the native language tech?

I guess Il Principe is next. For those who don't remember the order ...

- AstralPhaser (UTC +10)
- Koshling (UTC -6)
- JosEPh_II (UTC -6)
- Il Principe (UTC +1)
- Acularius (UTC -5)
- ls612 (UTC -6)
- Hydromancerx (UTC -8)
- Vokarya (UTC -6)
- Mega Nix (UTC +1)
- Thunderbrd (UTC -8)
- Praetyre (UTC +12)

Pretty sure it unlocks a fairly minor civic that I usually ignored until the 'Oral Traditions' tech.

In regards to Hydro's last post, I guess I'll be having my turn in the morning then. Assuming he takes his in the morning.

 

[Il Principe]

I also went with native language first, then moving on to nomadic lifestyle. My starting also was not too bad, so I could resarch right away.

 

[JosEPh_II]

I started with Language 1st too. I usually do it 3rd after N.Life and Gathereing. But when you start with a +6 and only 3 tiles for food, I just hope I don't have a close neighbor.

[Acularius]

Took my turn.

I don't really have tiles for food, other than plains. I'm hoping that the tech 'Gathering' unveils some food resources. Preferably on the river tiles that my plains are adjacent to.
Its a long road to 'irrigation' at this rate.
On the other hand, I won't be hurting for hammers.

the civic "native language"? that doesn't require spiritualism or get benefited by the trait

 

[JosEPh_II]

No it doesn't require any Trait. It gives a +5% Research and 5% Culture boost at game start. But if your Leader has Spiritual (or Scientific, Creative) as one of it's traits then the Research is further enhanced vs not.

Less anarchy, more turns I can spend researching.
Granted, I would still suffer a turn of anarchy, so I opted to not do it.
I'll probably hang on until Oral traditions. (Which is my usual strategy)

P.S
I'm having troubles planning things out with the research going so fast. What use to take 20 turns now takes 1 or 2... blows my mind. XD

 

[JosEPh_II]

Well 2000 turns vs 14,000 is a big change.

I wish we had made the game speed Normal for 1000 turn game. We would have more of a chance to actually make mid ancient Era. That's my prediction for how long this game might last.

If we could just switch 4 players around we would solve this turn accordion we have now.

My Proposal is:

- AstralPhaser (UTC +10)
- Koshling (UTC -6)<- Il principe swaps with Koshling
- JosEPh_II (UTC -6)<-Meganix swaps with me
- Il Principe (UTC +1)<-( becomes Koshling)
- Acularius (UTC -5)
- ls612 (UTC -6)
- Hydromancerx (UTC -8)
- Vokarya (UTC -6)
- Mega Nix (UTC +1) <-(becomes JosEPh)
- Thunderbrd (UTC -8)
- Praetyre (UTC +12)

What do you all think? It's till early enough.

JosEPh

 

[12padams]

How do we switch them? If it involves starting a new game then no...

Koshling do you know a way to modify the turn order of the save file?

 

[JosEPh_II]

It means that Il Principe would play Koshling's start position/empire/Genghis Khan and turn spot. Then meganix would play my empire/Augustus Carsar and turn spot.Then Koshling would play Il Principes original turn and empire, and I would play meagnix/epi3Brd's spot. Only the 4 of us would be impacted.

Now this would probably impact a couple Let's Play, but it currently would only be the 1st 4 turns and adjustments could be made.

Edit: ls612 is next.

I get it now

I could live with swapping Civ. But it have to be now then

 

[ls612]

I've taken my turn, it's Hydro's turn now.

 

[JosEPh_II]

We need Il principe and koshling to weigh in quickly too, if it's going to happen.

JosEPh

 

[Hydromancerx]

Well its up to you guys if you want to swap civs to make the game go smoother. I don't see a problem with it since its so early in the game.

 

[JosEPh_II]

@Meganix,
I'll swap with you as long as no one objects.

JosEPh

 

[Mega Nix]

sure deal then
