One last Multi-Poll, to decide 5 issues based upon our conversation thus far. We've already decided that:
A. Regia Civitas will build the HG ASAP, in 5 turns,
B. we will switch to Monarchy in the first oedo opportunity after its discovery,
C. the Little Nemo warrior will disband into the Colossus of Elysium,
D. Dellham will take over support of TFalls' Legion, and
E. A Settler must go found 2Whales, called Civvium.

Btw, disbanding a supported Warrior is a good way to transfer production before Caravans. We get 5 of 10 shields.

Please vote for only one box in each of the 5 major categories. Civ2 moves tomorrow.

There are several good choices for the Marl Down's Settler. I prefer M2 because it's closer, hence sooner than M1. Where will the City's Workers work? That can determine your choice regarding the Road. See City Plan

Second, the thorny complicated problem with TFalls Settler, nearly completed. Let's all share the responsibility for this analysis and plan. Please review Chat w Consular Ren . We have already decided this Settler will dash off and found 2Whales, Civvium.

Third, MonkE has posted an excellent plan, which will gain us Monarchy 4 turns - 200 years - earlier! Please study his excellent posts in Domestic Multi-Poll , then vote for one of those choices.

Fourth, let's again review the Colossus, Elysium or Regia Civitas? This overlaps the RC Build poll -- Since a Diplomat is leading, interpret this poll as, ok, after that one Diplomat, should we begin construction of the Colossus? Starting a Library will kill the possibility of the Colossus of RC (In the Harbor, with a view of the Hanging Gardens, multiplying Trade).

Fifth, do we build one road while we walk to found 2Whales, Civvium?

You may vote only once, but for several different issues
 
I like the idea of having the settlers build a road or two on their way. I think we have enough cities now that the three or so turns spent doing this is more than made up in the extra trade and the movement / defence benefits.

At what point do we also consider irrigating a square or two?:)
 
These multi polls are making my head hurt. I'm afraid I don't have the time here at work to sort through all the options and figure out what you're up to :( I"m going to have to trust in the competence of our various advisors and those who do know what it all means :crazyeyes:
 
It does get abit confusing especially since there are no screenshots with labels to show what some of the options mean.
 
The complexity of the game and all of the citizens confuses me too. Please give me a break. ;) I write MY SUMMARY, and sometimes give links. Otherwise, look at the main forum list of threads for info.

I have about 5 windows open, do you? It helps. On my IE 5.5, an old Browser, I can Right Click a link, and "Open in New Window" - that really helps!
 
download the latest version of opera (for free) from opera.com. it lets you display several pages within the browser, so you don't have to have multiple instances of the browser active, just one.

there's a thread on it, i don't remember, where, though.
