Well as soon as we have the unit to spare we should go exploring north of Privet, that is where our iron could be.

The other spot would be north of Guten Tag in the unexplored area accross the water

I wondered if Epsilon/Piffle has discovered techs beyond Paper. Indeed they have. Not only Education but Printing Press as well. Obviously Epsilon and Piffle have swapped PP and Education.

Alliance between Epsilon and Piffle must be really tight. Either Piffle or Epsilon gave Education to other when Liberalism has not been discovered.

Piffle has to research five techs to get their UU. Guilds (1000) + Banking (700) + Replaceable Parts (1800) + Rifling (2400) + Gunpowder (1200)= 1000+700+1800+2400+1200*1.1*1.4 = 10934 beakers. While we miss four techs. Guilds (1000) + Gunpowder (1200) + Nationalism (1800) + Military Tradition (2000) = 1000+1200+1800+2000*1.1*1.4 = 9240 beakers. 1500 beakers difference in game turns is 9-10 turns. That's awfully short period to build great Cossacks army.

The other point is that someone gets Liberalism free tech. I am terrified. They can choose Rifling as free tech with Liberalism. Piffle would get Redcoats faster than we would get Cossacks...
I know one way to force Liberalism to be played immediately. When we know Education, they can't delay Liberalism. Should we try that? GS lightbulb may be possible.

 

[robboo]

go for it.....

I also think its time for our diplomat to ask some serious question of our Piffle friends. I think they made it clear to us that they were against Epsilon but now they are making it clear via game play otherwise.

I think we should get Loco and (whats their name) to attack Epsilon and we hit Piffle. I think if we can pull that off we can possible eliminate two teams..even if one isnt named Epsilon.

To force them we would need Philo as well.

 

[Kuningas]

To force them we would need Philo as well.

We get Philo from team Innovia.

 

[Robi D]

We should make a point of this to Innovia and try to get a reaserch plan worked out. If we can bring Loco in then its a bonus

 

[BCLG100]

depending on game but it normally takes 2 GS to get education, especially if we're beelining there.

 

[BCLG100]

Talking with innovia

ideas being proposed-
full disclosure on diplomacy
map trade
military help- they'll help by keeping epsilon busy
gifting us guilds early so we can go faster on MT research
trade embargo against piffle/epsilon

What are we doing with our merchant we get in 5 turns? popping a tech or sending him on a mission?

 

[GeorgeOP]

what techs will he pop?

Or save him for a Golden Age? Merchants are the ones I like the least.

 

[Love]

Mee to... Se what tech he's popping...

 

[BCLG100]

I really like GM's tbh, can be used to upgrade a few units or at the very least can let us deficit research for quite awhile.

Epsilon has connected iron resource.






Fresh maceman built in Hello goes to explore north.

 

[Robi D]

Man you guys are flying through the turns

First Epsilon having the iron wont be a concern for a little while, not until they can get Frigates.

I am a little bemused, Epsilon asks for open borders to get their explorer out of the trap and when we give it to them they don't use it

Also are we trading maps with Innovia and whats the situation with the tech trades?
