Turn 86 - 875BC

[akots]

As it has been arranged previously with C3B, we have sent them CoL and MMaking anticipating to recieve Monarchy next turn. They are already in Anarchy btw. Don't know if there are any changes in this agreement wince I was unable to attend the chat today and there is nothing posted in the Embassy thread. Here is diplo screen:

The barracks in TF were whipped and we are ready to pump out veteran AC units. Otherwise, I'm trying to stockpile some food in the bins in anticipation of Anarchy to decrease losses to starvation. This is our mainlands:

The galley with worker and warrior continues the journey to Iron Mountain. JT aims for a second hut to pop on the Iron Island:

Good job whipping the Rax. Now we can get the Vet ACs. And are we revolting as soon as we get Monarchy or are we waiting one or two turns?
Also, do we have any plans to start TGLight?

SaaM

Our brave sailors in tiny curraghs continue to navigate through the polar seas and revealed more terrain of C3B part of the continent:

Uh-oh Saam, you interupted the soon to be king while he was giving his report! Hopefully he will show mercy on your soul!

I think we should revolt immediately upon receiving monarchy. With akots' food storage preparations, I hope we won't lose too many citizens.

 

[akots]

IIRC, the polls we had suggested that we revolt immediately. And we are not planning to build The Lighthouse for now.

 

[Ankka]

So, you actually started the anarchy already? Checked the first post, and noticed you said that they are in anarchy, so nevermind.

If I have counted right, we will get oour first AC next turn or the one after it.

What shall TF start, a settler or the FP or something else?

Is it possible to start a revolution before you have any other government? I have never though of this before, so I doubt it, but it would be quite a trick sometimes, like now..

By the way, we extended the agreement with C3B for another 5 turns, so do not make any new cities up north. Also, C3B is going to build the great lighthouse.

 

[akots]

I could have revolted this turn. But what if the C3B change their minds "because of people of C3B decided it is not in their interest"? We would have to go back to Despotism wasting 5-6 turns and probably at war with C3B? No, to be on the safe side, we should wait for Monarchy to come IMHO.

 

[Pegster]

Is it even possible to revolt without having other governments forms thann despotisism?

 

[Matrix]

Eh, yes...

 

[Pegster]

iirc, it wasn't possible in the original civ3 nor ptw. (but I'm *a bit* tired and moght very well remember wrong*

Good idea Akots, I would not want to be at their mercy.
