[BTS] SGOTM 26 - Home Slices

I change my answer. I agree that putting OF into the HE in Silver makes sense so that we can cash in at any time. Then we can put some additional hammers into the HE in Whales as WT said.

I agree that getting the GS for Electricity trumps an ASAP Observatory in Science.

We already see Biz's research and he's adding 1 EP/turn. I see no harm in continuing to see what he's teching if all it costs is 1 EP/turn. It may help us decide what to give/sell him in the future.

PPP updates are in pink.

I think we should increase our specialists in Science City to 10.
That way we get our Great Person in 8 turns.

If so we need to give up a cottage for 2 turns. Besides, our population is growing fast. 1 extra turn allows more beaker in gs bulb.

Should we use both Galleys to ferry units from Sitting Bull to the road east of Clam City?

The galleon is coming back soon. I want the 1st pillage squad(1 musket 2 chariot) to set out for HRE as fast as possible.

 

[Mitchum]

Green light, MG. When would you like to play? Asking for a friend.

I bet a certain Princess on the team appreciates your color choice!

I guess since the city is growing, you don't have to work all 10 scientists this turn. Just aim to have the GS in 8 turns as Kait suggested. And we don't want any more gene pool pollution here so GSs only.

Coming back in 8 hours.

T178~Hero epic(should I use OF to accelerate HE? )

note: don't complete it this turn. IIRC, the OF would be close.

Sounds good, MG.

Looking for more green lights so that MG can play when he gets back. Of course, it assumes that the requested minor tweaks are made (e.g. Science specialists, OF into HE, others?)

What do people think about keeping eyes on Biz's tech choices at the cost of about 1 EP/turn?

 

[WastinTime]

Green light if all suggestions are taken. That is to say whomever got the last word on a topic and no one argued.
Or, anyone can post what they think is undecided, or better ideas.

 

[Mitchum]

Kait, LC hasn't been on much lately. I think you should mentally prepare to go once MG is done with his turnset.

 

[Kaitzilla]

I think all of our concerns have been expressed.
Hopefully there are no more hidden problems.

Good luck Mirrorguard!

Right. I’m massively busy and only going to get busier. Just reading the thread takes up my free time.

I don't mind if Observatory is 1 turn late as long as we can double bulb Electricity fully.

I forget there is 300% research multiplier in capital already. Observatory 1 turn later doesn't mean that much. There is 540 gpp to go. 2 turns of 9 scientists+6 turns of 10 scientists will provide 64*2+70*6=548 gpp. There is no need to give up a cottage before pop 13.

If a city is growing faster than 1pop per turn, the food just carries over.

It's true generally, but for now I'm a bit confused.
Clams has 22/24 food with 19 food surplus. At max 1 city can grow 1 pop in 1 turn. The food surplus could have allowed the city to grow 2 pop in 1 turn. I believe there will be some food lost.

note: don't complete it this turn. IIRC, the OF would be close

Temple has 114/80. Org-religion and forge make it OF a bit complicated. I believe it's not enough to complete HE. I will give up the silver mine for 1 turn if necessary.

The food builds up and the city grows normally even with a major excess.
Here are 10 turns from the Test Game that should show what happens.

[WastinTime]

I don't think so. If the city was doing +100 food it would just carry over.

Turnset report T175~T182
previous report
PPP

T175

To Louis: sell wine for crab+3
To Bis: sell horse for wine, deer gift, fur gift
To Saladin: Silver for gold, fur for silk, drama for 30g
To Peter: stone for another seafood

Cahokia has 18h. Moscow has 104h.
-just now missed something
Bismark is putting 3ep against us. 3 ep against Germany. It might not be enough.

T176
spreading sushi into Berlin costs 128g.
The spy successfully steals 144g from SB and survives.
Saladin completes the wonder that unlocks religion civic. Charle completes MoM.
Peter picks corporation. He still has 150g for trade. Will sell him corporation when there is 1 turn left.
Cahokia has 21h. Moscow has 104h? Fail gold incoming? I wait for 1 more turn to see if it will turn into fail gold. If so, I will sell corporation to Peter.

T177
Peter's gold returns to 0...The hammers in Moscow resets. Corporation needs 6 turns. My bad.
Bis needs 10t to finish rep-parts.
....killed the oil plain scout by mistake
...........game crashes......

 

[WastinTime]

Saladin completes the wonder that unlocks religion civic.

Dang, I forgot. I was gonna say with those GE's Paya was coming soon and we just got Gold, so that doubles failgold.
MoM woulda been another good guess.

Peter picks corporation. He still has 150g for trade. Will sell him corporation when there is 1 turn left.

Hmm. How many turns is it? 150g is pretty good. We got nothing T175.
at the latest, do 2 turns or you might not get all his gold.

 

[WastinTime]

Saladin completes the wonder that unlocks religion civic. Charle completes MoM.

any extra failgold available from the AI?

 

[MirrorGuard]

How many turns is it?

5 turns

any extra failgold available from the AI?

Louis 90; Peter 150; Charle 60. The rest 0.
