Tech cost in our game is approx. 1.55x base cost. (It varies based on settings). And only on pre-req discount.

Feedback on discussion points:
1. Yes to settling a non-seafood Mao de Glace on Bcool Island.
2. Kamchatka - Siberia Sushi Exec was just a one-time poprush, because Siberia is busy with IW and Kamchatka has extra pop to spare. (Two-for-one.)
3. The sooner we gift St Nick to Stalin the better, because later he'll always accept the gift, if we need to take it away before stealing Mil Sci.
4. Poprush FP asap.
5. I wouldn't waste wkr-turns on Rheims south forts. Galleys just wait at Steam for now.

I took the price directly from the save. Two prereqs but both required so max 1.2 bonus.

So, Mao Bing or Bing Mao?

Anyways SoL is a big wonder for us, and we should consider the tech situation carefully after RR. I think gifting Gandhi techs required for Demo now would be worth the smallish cost to us.

Btw, the reason to get Churchill down to 3 cities is to gift him St Nick...
And also a reason to get a spy in there asap.
Getting him to 3 cities may be tough. I put it in the save but forgot to mention that Chuchill had a settler in York on T198 but now he's gone. The galley is still there, so he's headed somewhere by land...
Family name first in Chinese... I suppose it's Mao Bing.

Or better yet, forget about sending these two galleys to CHurchill and just bring them back to the Orleans area. We don't want to sacrfice galleys senselessly.

I like Bing-Mao. I think I heard someone say that in an elevator on one of my trips to China...

Yes, I thought I had said that but I'm not sure. By the time they get to York/London, the party will be over.

We could use his 130 gold. Done.

I didn't mean this as a criticism. I didn't think of it before and I'm regretting that oversight.
Don't worry. I didn't take it as a criticism. I was just pointing out that I did think of it but decided to steal anway so that we could direct epp to Churchill/Stalin. Maybe I should have brought it up first. Oh well. Onward.

Just wait till you visit Maontarctica and see zillions of little Chinese penguins playing bing bong.

OK. As soon as Bing-Mao is settled, I'll gift it to him. I just hope he doesn't settle that 4th city first.

Try to settle Bing-Mao so there won't be any fallout in his culture. (Due south of Crabbes would be fine because Crabbes sushi culture will take everything.)

Don't forget a unit to capture it (St. Nick) before trying to gift it away...

Yes, something I keep forgetting. The chariot at Beijing would make a good pillager fo the hamlets and cottages at Hastings. Do we want to keep villages? I havne't figured out what's optimum.

By due south, you mean 2S+2SW, right? I can have the worker scrub the tundra hill before his culture gets it.
