We are finishing a number of builds in the next few turns, and there are many options. Rather than propose a detailed micro plan, let's discuss those options first. We need more workers (we only have 4 and are building 1 more, for 5 cities).
Builds:
Turn 86
Sirius: The lighthouse is done. As I said, we want to let the city grown for at least 1 more turn to reach size 7. Options are a maceman (6 turns), crossbow (5 turns), or a missionary (4 turns). Also, galley or trireme (both 5 turns). Building options include: temple, courthouse, barracks, aqueduct, market, monastery, harbor.
I think a maceman to tackle the barb city would be a good idea.
Canopus: The granary is done, so we could build a worker (5 turns), or settler (8 turns), and the units/buildings listed for Sirius, but also including a library as a possibility.
I think we need another worker, and can whip here and then recover building a maceman or lighthouse. A missionary for Alpha Centauri is also a possibility.
Turn 87:
Alpha Centauri: The granary is done, so we could build a worker (6 turns), or settler (10 turns), and the units/buildings listed for Sirius/Canopus above.
Again I would go with worker here. We need to spread Confucianism here before investing more hammers in buildings
Turn 88:
Arcturus: The worker is done. The most reasonable builds to me would be another worker (4 turns), or a granary (6 turns). I would lean toward a granary, so we can whip. I see this as our unit pump, so I would suggest something like: granary > barracks > maceman > maceman > maceman, etc... with a worker and maybe a settler for the pigs/clam/clam site inserted in the queue somewhere.
Worker actions
(consult the map to investigate all the possibilities here)
Turn 87:
Vega: hell hound finishes pigs pasture. I think he should continue to improve Vega. If he roads the pigs hill (2 turns), he can move to the stone tile in one turn when Vega's borders pop in 2 turns.
Turn 88:
Arcturus: The new worker (AlphaShard) is available. He could mine green hills 1S and 1W of Arcturus, or the one 2E1S (this hill could be shared with the pigs/clam/clam city).
Sirius: The cottage is done on the silk tile. Having caveman1917 move 1SE to cottage the riverside grassland is what we have discussed.
Turn 89:
Alpha Centauri: HUSch finishes FP cottage. He could move to Canopus, to chop or mine, or chop a neighboring silk tile. There are a lot of possibilities here...
Anyway, those are the upcoming decisions as I see them. Any particular preferences or thoughts on our overall priorities? Maybe we should also discuss how these will fit into our larger plan.
maneuver, on their part, with us having an axe and archer in the vicinity.
