President thread- Term 3

[classical_hero]

We have two new cities that need to be named. This is they city of Kyoto which was founded the last turn.

And here is Osaka which was founded this turn.

As you can see we can get machinery in 5 more turns. I think we need to research Calendar next so that we can get those silk working for us and trading some around.

 

[dutchfire]

What about "Loss", "Defeat", "Perseverence", "No Surrender"
(Or any of these backwards) "Ssol" "Taefed" "EcnerevesreP" "Rednerrus On"

 

[1889]

I would get a big kick out of "Taefed" and "Rednerrus".

 

[classical_hero]

I forgot to change the names of the cites, but as you might have expected, we lost Victory. They have now changed it to GCA Victory.

 

[1889]

We've had the save for quite a while and since I just discovered I'm second back up player I took it for a whirl. Ah, power is such a rush.

Send Philo to GWT and asked for music.
Changed BCLGland from barracks to temple, we’ll want to get started on a prophet ASAP. (I just realized I set it for Buddhist, but Taoist is probably more appropriate)
Changed the capitol from forge to settler.
And switched Kyoto from barracks to granary.
But none of that matters since I adopted Hereditary Rule and Organized Religion. 1 turn of Anarchy.

We may just want to use the capitol to build some Taoist missionaries then switch religions.

I put an archer on a boat and went north. I'd like to try swapping it stealthily with the unoccupied galley near a pair of GCA workers. (Can they see what we have aboard our ships?) The other two galleys went looking for fish tiles to pillage.

We got an axe way down south, he can't capture that barb city so should he just come home?

What’s with that warrior at GCA's northern boarder, how about giving him to CBR, maybe they could at least use him as an MP.

Speaking of warriors far from how about selling our super awesome promoted warrior to GWT in exchange for a small sack of gold and their inexperienced dude wandering around our stuff?

If your really good I’ll post pics later.

 

[1889]

Here is a bit more:

We get Music from GWT next turn (No trade for 10 turns) then we'll share it with CBR.
We finish Machinery in 4 and must give it to CBR and BAT.
BAT gets Civil Service about the same time and will trade it to us for Philosophy.
CBR gets Construction just around then and will give it to us and BAT.

What next? BAT would like us to research Calendar while they do Currency. Have not talked to CBR about their plans.

Some potential builds:

BCLGland should unselect those scientists so it can grow in 3. I think it can then rush the temple (Next turn player: please switch it to Taoist) it can then assign a priest and maybe our next GP will be a prophet.

Azael... can build a settler in 6 or Taoist missionaries in 3. (Maybe we can change religions after we finish Machinery.)

Fever River will finish the Forge in a few. We'll have horses by then so it can make chariots in just 2 turns. We need more troops incase GCA comes calling but they will be handy as MPs in any case.

Kyoto should keep building a barracks I guess, not a bad production city considering the terrain.

Osaka will get that work boat next turn and may be a good spot to build another worker or settler.

But where to settle:

Yes it is very inconvenient but we do need Iron so let’s get on it. We can settle a few tiles closer and still have it the fat cross for what good it does. The intermediate location is basically just a link, but we have to expand some were right?

 

[1889]

One last thing.

I'd have the galley end each turn there until we can swap it with the loaded boat, but might as well send that spear into the breach and advance on the Keshik. It’s not exactly the Christmas bombing but we have to keep some sort of pressure on them to get them interested in ending the war.

 

[classical_hero]

Thanks for taking the turn.

 

[1889]

Hope you don't mind if I play again.

Finally renamed those cities to Taefed and Rednerrus. Meh, not very good names after all I guess.

Our fishing boat throws out its nets...more freakin clams, hurray. Connected our Horses too.

Changed BCLG land to Taoist Temple, should be able to rush it when pop grows in 3 turns. Can then start on a prophet.

Changed Azale to Taoist missionary. I think our troops are spread a little thin to be sending a settler out just yet.

Offered peace to GCA. The galleys are all unloaded and within sight of GCA, their Keshik has retreated so our spear is heading back, the Axe by barb city is on his way to secure our Iron.

Are there any objections to gifting our warrior to CBR?

 

[ordinaryguy]

How good is our warrior? Promotions?

How much cash does CBR have?

 

[1889]

We can't trade gold with CBR until we get Currency so I don't even know how much they have, but our warrior has no xp aside from his free combat 1 promotion (which, being agressive, they also have.) Basically the unit is now sucky and usless except as an MP.

Maybe we should just wait and ask GCA if we can sail him home.

 

[classical_hero]

I am thinking of sending this to the Catcherites, so that we can still be showing that we are willing to work towards peace.

Dear Catcherites,
So far we are still unable to reach agreement as what the full terms of the peace agreement will be, so for now I think it is best that first agree that we have an in game peace treaty and then we can work out the specifics of the actual treaty. We agree that sending some gold now is also prudent of us, the total being the agreed 60 gold. If we are not able to reach agrement within the ten turn limit, then we can resume war again.

Regards, classical_hero, CFC President.

That message is to be sent at a later date if noone objects.

There is not much to do, since we have few nits now. The only thing I really did was start a pasture for the sheep.

 

[1889]

I'm working on a reply now, will post later, but perhaps I can just work this proposal into it.

 

[classical_hero]

I played the turn. There is not much to report except for the fact that we traded warriors with GWT. Everything else was basically just nothing.

 

[BCLG100]

Im back now guys but i can't find my civ4 disc anywhere so for the time being i still can't play turns.

 

[classical_hero]

Great news this term. We have accepted a cease fire with GCA and we got some Iron from CBR for Bronze. :

 

[1889]

I'll break the news to CBR. They are still involved in combat with GCA units.

 

[classical_hero]

I sent an offer to BAT for Civil Service for Machinery. They asked for Machinery without sending Civil service. Idiots. I also whipped BCLGland for a Taoist Temple losing 3 pop for the temple. We also got some pigs from CBR for Machinery.

 

[1889]

So we are researching Calander now?

CBR will finish Construction in 2 turns, and we have to send them Music in 660AD (in 5 turns).

 

[classical_hero]

We are working on Calendar so that we can get those silk so that we can do some trading and get some extra happiness. Since we are working of Calendar, we could telll CBR that we are willing to trade Calendar for construction.
