[RegentMan]

NO ONE has given their opinion in the R & T T4 D6 - Yet Another Pretty Chart discussion thread. Here's mine:

*Research industrialization.
*Research at a 50% science rate (8 turns).
*Lower the science rate if you can increase gpt, but maintain the same research time.
*If applicable, begin research on medicine after industrialization.

[DaveShack]

Form a homeland defense force of a least 6 cavalry, 4 defenders (infantry preferred) and some artillery/cannons. Station defense force on the railnet. After defense force has been assembled, offensive units on MP duty in / near rail connected cities can be released for attack use.

In particular this can free up some elite swords which can reach the closest Mayan longbow. Use Sir Wallace for whatever purpose the people decide prior to continuing the attack so the next elite can be promoted. Edit: If the people have not chosen how to use our MGL, as it seems they have not, it is ok to go ahead with attacking using elites in advantageous situations.

Turn 0 - 1190AD

Turn 5 - 1240AD

We've razed a few Mayan border cities, depriving them of Saltpeter (no more cavs for them! Yes, they have cavs...)

Turn 10 - 1270AD

We're now at war with the Hittites, as they demanded saltpeter from us. It's now almost a free-for-all up north.
