Hi BLubmuz,
The +50% hammers from IMP are included in my calculation. If you only want to build one settler and then Wealth for the rest of the game, then chopping into it makes sense. If you want to build the settler and then anything else afterward, then sooner or later you have to produce the same total number of hammers. The hammers that go into the settler are IMP-enhanced, the hammers that go to "anything else" are not enhanced - it doesn't matter where the hammers come from (chopping or slowbuild).
It's might not be clear in my verbal argument, but the math works - please feel free to check my calculation and prove me wrong
For this game, the implication is that we don't need to save our chops for settlers, we can just put them into whatever we need now.
