Suggestion: Forbidden Palace location

[Justus II]

Why is everyone assuming we are going to move the Palace? Fox Nest is our capital, and should stay that way. It has our only two wonders, is our most culturally advanced city, and still affects our most productive cities. I don't think we should base the FP decision on moving the palace when we have not made that decision yet.

Exactly Justus II. If you can guarantee the Phoenatican citizenry that the Capital will never be moved, then the discussion of the FP location can be seen in a different light. What say you?

If we stop expanding, and place our FP correctly, we should have no need to move the palace. I sincerely hope we do stop expanding as the demo game will become more organized as our number of cities and provinces becomes static. Even if we do continue to expand, I will oppose moving the palace except in extreme circumstances. With the additional effectiveness of courthouses and police stations with patch 1.21, corruption and waste should remain at a manageable level.

I agree with our current and former cultural ministers on not moving the capitol.

I would ask the president this:

If we do not move the capitol would you still think it best to build the FP in a new city near PDX?

If not, then where would you build it?

I would also ask the domestic leader where he would place the FP. (Note: I also agree with eyrei that the time i snear for us to consolidate our gains and stop expanding.)

 

[eyrei]

I would place the FP in New York. Or possibly Philadelphia if we continue to expand to the south any more. If we build the FP in New York, I would also want to change the name.....

 

[Cyc]

I believe the only good reason for considering New York is that it might be a future build site for "The Iron Works Wonder". BTW, what would you change the name to? Philly just falls right back into the same discussion.

So you can guarantee us the capital will never be moved Eyrei? That's where this discussion is leading.

 

[eyrei]

Were it up to me, the palace would only be moved if we decided to try to win by domination. I do not see this happening. However, it is not entirely up to me. I would however, vote against it in a cabinet poll.

If we want to build the forbidden Palace fast we should build it in PDX becouse it would take only 9 turns to build it there currently. And if we build Forbidden Palace in any other city it would take a long time or we would need a leader.

We should place the FP as far away from the palace as we can. This way it can effect more cities

Russia, load the game, look at the map and make a suggestion. I disagree with your stradegy, but when it comes to a vote you should make sure your option is on the selections.
