Now Is The Future!

Well, one American spot is decent, not great, but not too bad. The other American spot is almost hopeless. If you see an American ship bring settlers to your land don't be alarmed, it is peaceful expansion.

I can't wait until we get some commerce going. Taking 100+ turns on some techs is not too much fun.

I've got the girls - Kathy and Isabella.

 

[Tim Ford]

What? Jbieshka was supposed to get Kathy! Uh Oh, Did that get messed up?

Well, do we want to start over so he can get the civ he picked? Or just roll with it?

 

[Tim Ford]

Ummm, let's see what he says when he gets his turn. I'm more than willing to start over. I can't stand the thought of making someone unhappy.

I double checked that stuff too, I don't know what went wrong!

 

[Dazz_G]

Bearing in mind the hopeless start for the English, I'm happy to restart

 

[ruff_hi]

personally - I like both my starts and would prefer to play on

 

[jbieksha]

hmmm. I got Mao - not hopeless, not great. And Kubla Khan - Decent Start. They are workable.

I'd like a restart just because I I'd like the civs I picked. Trying not to be a nub or aything....

 

[ruff_hi]

Well, if we are going to restart - pls put me down for both the indian civs.

 

[Tim Ford]

I am now restarting the game!

Game file sent!

All of France is fine.

Wait a second! All indian civs! I get it, ruff_hi is aiming towards those fast workers to set up his infastructure! Brilliant scheme!

 

[Dazz_G]

Played and sent.

Germany is fine but once again the English get stiffed ... only 16 non ice/water tiles to work with

Didn't see ruffs scheme myself at first - nice one

 

[ruff_hi]

lol - anyone want to buy a fast worker from me?

 

[jbieksha]

Its no different than the 2 america's or the 2 french.

 

[Dazz_G]

There may be no real difference but the faster workers means that both ruff's positions should be able to set up their infrastructure quicker than the rest of us.

As for buying a fast worker, unless they come equipped with flippers/skis then my own workers should be able to cope with the 16 tiles available to them

 

[Tim Ford]

Dude, I would totally buy a fast worker! Let's make that trade later on when we find each other!

 

[jbieksha]

I'm not so sure they build faster. I think they just get the extra movement point

 

[DogBoy]

The new Americans are in a worse spot than the old Americans. Is this a conspiracy?

 

[ruff_hi]

There may be no real difference but the faster workers means that both ruff's positions should be able to set up their infrastructure quicker than the rest of us.

wouldn't you know it - all I get is fish - how do workers improve fish?

at least I got 17 tiles to work with

You could poach,bake, fry, BBQ ... the list goes on.

1235 sent to Tim.

Both Kathy & Monty are satisfied with their starting positions. While not ideal, they are workable.
