Sure, that's what i would have posted. For some reason i reversed the galley and the settler and not noticed it
No problem.
Grow to 6 before the settler can give us the chance to hire 2 Sci while building the settler, instead to work commerce-poor tiles. Few turns of delay (1-2, i think) for the settler won't mean much compared to an early GS and to increased research. We have also more time to explore the island and discuss where to settle.
I agree. I think this was what Irgy had in mind with his micro plan.
Voyager:
I think the best thing is to follow the coast SW. If the land we can see is a peninsula, moving E we risk to be forced to go back if we want to scout Southward and Eastward.
If we're looking for a new opponent or for new land/resources i suppose we exclude to go E.
My apologies if I misunderstand you, but: The problem with moving SW is that there is no guarantee that the water we see to the SW is an open waterway. I think it is likely to be, but it could be a bay. Since we know going east is going around the Persian island, it will almost definitely lead us to the next civilization.
A request for Trystero or for next player.
Can you please verify which religion(s) is (are) already founded?
I agree about CoL, it's really useful for Courthouses, but since we need Polyteism or Meditation to research PH, i don't see any problem in researching the one which can give us a religion in the process. Few turns of delay on Alpha will not be the end of the world.
I agree also that Judaism is too faraway from our present research path to be useful.
As of the last turn I played (turn 42), only Buddhism and Hinduism had been founded. As Irgy and AlphaShard have mentioned, we are hoping to get religious techs (at least Mysticism) from Team AMAZON, so we are prioritizing Alphabet at the moment.
Delaying Alphabet could lose us an entire tech, if we research something that AMAZON have already, while at the same time the delay also causes them to research a tech we already have because they need it more urgently and can't afford to wait for us to get around to it. We really need to hear back from them.
I've been delaying playing turns somewhat, with the intention of giving diplomacy more time (I've actually waited until Amazon has played their turn for the last few turns). But are we all in agreement, that we should pursue Alphabet next, regardless? We will finish Sailing in the next turn, so we need to make this decision.
Also, we should delay playing this turn somewhat so we can do some more micro planning. I've downloaded Irgy's new save (Thanks!
), but I haven't had much chance to look it over since we had friends visiting.
Edit: Since another turn has started (turn 43) I logged in and verified that no new religions have been founded. Also, I had to pick the next tech since we completed Sailing, so I picked Alphabet.
Note that this is currently a placeholder only, since I don't think we've reached a final decision on this. I made no other decisions/moves for this turn.
