Turn Discussion Thread

Ships to protect our islands from the Frigates, unless we tech Mil Sci and make Ship of the Line.
 
You guys want to build the Temple of Artemis? If not building in Rigel because of the whooping +8 culture and our deal with the Amazons in Anjinida, then Procyan is a good candidate as it is outputing 20 gold/turn from trade routes.

All the new build queues that still have Cavalry need to be replaced by Rifleman as we have enought 'Gunships' and we will need Infantry in a bit.

Techs:
After Military Science(in 1turn) do you think it's better to go right away to Assembly Line or do we go first for Scientific Method(1 turn), burn a GS on Physics and only then Assembly Line?

I've made a couple of changes. Lord Parkin and Pindicator are in the Titan right by Acrux to help develop the new island. I've started Azzaman333 to change a farm that was built on dyes to a plantation and ends in four turns.
I've added a couple more workers to some cities queues as we need them. They're not in front of the queue so they can be deleted or replaced.
As I write this, there's still four and an half hours for the end of the turn. If nobody else logs-in before the end of the turn, I will and move all the stuff that still hasn't been moved.
 
I don't think we will have enough time to get benefits from ToA before it cancels with Sci Method.

I won't be able to log in at all until the next turn comes around (still at work) but when you play the turn please take screen caps and update our Turn tracker thread.

Yeah I think it's time to break the Sci Method barrier.
 
I've tested it. Using a GS only adds some beakers to the Physic's pool. It's great to have some foot already in it as we might need electricity soon for Industrialism(if we're going to rush for Marines), but I thought that burning a GS would give the tech immediatly. In that case, I would prefere to go for Assembly Line right after MiliSci.
 
New turn. We have exactly 3000 points.
Choose Scientific method and adjusted slider (40%)to finish in one turn.

I've requested a world map exchange to Amazon to give the impression that we don't have enough ESP points to see what's going on in the Merlot island. They can't know how much we have on another civ, right?

I toke the liberty to use one IE with three units to pickup a spy from Achenar and drop it later around Procyon so that it can be sent south to Hoag.
I'm also moving two cavalry units to Comet through the Nexus, or do you think those two should stay there for now?

Bode RR network almost finished.

Anyone working the micro?
 
No I don't think they can know how much we have against another civ. I don't know what is going on at Merlot island. Why they are producing Wealth in ALL of there cities. Maybe Amazon is extorting gold out of them so they can stay in the game.


I think we can continue to send troops to Comet so long as Bode and Sol have defenses as well as Anjen(at least something that doesn't say "come and conquer".
 
Amazon decided to add Military Science to the worldmap deal. I've declined and mentioned that we would write something fast. We need to work out with Amazon(and CDZ) what to do concerning the ETTT and Q right away!

You guys think it's helpfull start building Granadiers?

I've added some Ship of the Line to city queues with drydocks.

I'm still not done for today.

EDIT: Oh, right! I toke the navy fleet from the water to give them a false sence of security. I'm just delaying untill the Ships of the Line don't show up in the region. Did I rush stuff? We can still put them all back.
 
We shouldn't half attack so it's cool to wait until we ARE ready.
 
It seems that Ama finaly made their move.

Sorry about the color coding. I know it's hard to distinguish both colors. Amazon only has one stack in there with all units in bleeding. I'll update the letter to reflect this.

I believe we can build Uni's in our Comet cities. We have pushed back Amazon Culture. Maybe we can do a Hermitage in Mirza?
 
Quick update as a new turn kicked in.
Burning a GS will add 2178 beakers to the physics pool(5980 beackers in total).
Assembly line will take five turns at 90-100% with a whooping -472Gold/turn. It's at 0% untill we decide on what to do.
We can also start a golden age with one GS, burn the other GS in kickstarting Physics and have it researched in two/three turns(just tested).

Q aparently only has one oil resource(SW of their island on the ocean, so plastics. I think this might be the way to get them. Without oil baised units, they're screwed).

Too late now. I'll think more clearly tomorrow.
 
What about the Hermitage not in Mizar but in Aldebaran to preassure New Lake City and Midi?

Also, We can go right away for combustion and have it in 4 turns (same as in GA, but the GA will give us much better Gold benefict from the needed waiting turn (+1068G)).
Q is researching Scientific Method and aparently is due in 4 turns(at 100% as they have almost 2500G in treasury) and they can research combustion right away, too.

They are building two Ship of the Line at the moment(can't find any already build, probably hidden?), but I can't find any city of them with a drydock while we're building ours only in cities with the facility(3, 4 cities)(1 already in the water, two next turn, one in two turns and one more city with SofL in the queue).
We're also using four cities to massbuild Granadiers.

The only ones that have land oil tiles are us, Amazon(one in Anjennida right to the south of Saber, I think) and CDZ with two in Cigar (near The Library and Bacon).
The other spokes(Bode, Hoag and Marathon) might have the aluminium as I definitly see the conquest for the Nexus Uranium comming up.

So, here's my proposal:
We burn a GS in a GA, research Combustion for 3+1 turns(build oilfields and start on destroyers and subs). Burn the other GS to kickstart Physics and have it in 3 turns (Possibly 2 turns if the Gold saved from the Combustion turn delay allows it)(There we also get another GS).

Ideas?

EDIT: Here's Amazon SoD fully healed?!? From 9.7 to 14HP in one turn? Is it possible? They don't have a supermedic there.

I like your proposed teching plan Alltriia. Go for it.
 
That looks good. I think they may worry were warmongering. We may have to assure them somehow that were not... I dunno this is a difficult to thing to work around. One hand there "can only be one" sort of thing. I think we should express wanting to continue the NAP with Amazon.

Is Space a victory we want to try for? Otherwise it's only a matter of time.
 
Well, it's kind of difficult to deny it as we wore infact warring. Mev and Q right after? Shure we wore. :)

I left them an open space to draft something. Let's see what they come up with. I also asked them if they wanted to extended the pact in a prior letter.

Not shure. You think conquest is a waste of time? I would like to go for the Space race, yes. :)

EDIT: I've burned the GS into a GA. It's on for 12 turns. Anyone want to change civics while we're in the prosperity?
I also put all ESP points weight to Q as we will be needing them soon.
 
New turn and Amazons comes hammering asking for Scientific Method. Didn't gave it (disconnected the cable without logging out throught the client so the request is still up) as I'm asking the team (especially Trystero) to check this message to send as soon as possible.

EDIT: I'm thinking on send it at the middle of this turn. Anyone else with insight on it?
 
So, what do you guys think we should do?

A) Send Scientific Method to Amazon and CDZ and explaining them the edge we might have if Q never get oil.

or

B) Still refuse untill we have a re-vamped agreement?

I'm thinking option A. Four hours to the end of the turn. Nothing was moved from our game since last turn.
