Turnchat 470AD - Friday 5:00am EDT (9:00am GMT)

[Chieftess]

460AD - Previous Turnchat Thread

470AD Gamesave

Note - The only real thing on the agenda is wheter we trade with the Germans or not. All other instructions from the last chat can carry over, as it was only 1 turn.

 

[MOTH]

Build Queues and Laborer Allocation:
No changes from save file.

Worker Suggestions:
Please send a few more workers south. Epolenep and Regent Town both need more improved land to work. Epo is currently working 3 unimproved tiles.

Note: the thread should be stickied.

 

[TimBentley]

These are unchanged from the previous turnchat thread except that the micromanagement has already been done.

Osgiliath: cathedral, library, barracks

Sto'vo'kor: courthouse, market, harbor

Windurst: courthouse, aqueduct

Pete: courthouse, marketplace

Bentropolis: courthouse, barracks

Suggested worker actions:
mine a couple of hills near Osgiliath
mine grassland near Sto'vo'kor (please don't irrigate the desert, I would rather irrigate the flood plains and mine the desert)
mine grassland and chop jungle near Windurst
mine grassland and hills near Pete; make other cities higher priorities
mine hills and grassland near Bentropolis

New cities should start production on a courthouse, pikeman, or temple, up to the DP's discretion (it doesn't really matter because it won't finish this turnchat anyways)

If Swazi flips, have it produce workers, with no specialists.

 

[invy]

I noticed in the chatlog that there were some discussions with laborer instructions. I'll try to make this clear now:

Building queues:

Shorin-Ryu: Marketplace >> Cathedral
Corrino: Marketplace

-no other changes

Laborers

Odawara:
- switch laborer from desert tile to mined EN'GHA hill after 1 turn
***in other words: Odawara will borrow 1 En'Gha hill
- DP discretion: switch floods to desert if needed to avoid riot

En'Gha:
- Use another mined hill instead of the hill which will be lended to Odawara (logical)

Corrino: Just make sure that this city have +2 food after it gets 6 pop (clear forests with workers if needed)

Shorin-Ryu:
- switch desert and forest tile to 2 mined hills - will be mined in 2 turns

Workers:

1) Mine 2 Odawara hills and irrigate floods
2) Clear Corrino forest and irrigate the tile
3) Shorin-Ryu: Irrigate bonus grassland or Wine tile (DP discretion - because Shorin needs food).

**NULL AND VOID IF POPE SNIPLEFRITZ POSTS**







...Not that it really matters. The ministry's position seems to be, "if you had fun, you won". So, go out there and give it your all.

 

[Stuck_as_a_Mac]

EXECUTIVE DECISION da da da dum!
We will trade Bismark our World Map for Contact with India, a TM, 8g and 4gpt.
We will then contact Ghandi. We will trade him our world map for as much gold, communication and map as he is willing to give.
We will repeat the process until all contacts have been earned.
We will NOT sell either contacts from our side or Chivalry.
We will research what the tech department tells us to.
We will NOT sell contacts from the new world to our neighbors. If all goes well, we won't have to as they will be dead.

SaaM
Who is reposting this exact thing in the TC thread

 

[Rik Meleet]

Since there isn't going to be an IBT; I have nothing to add to my previous instructions.

Please MM Zojoji in such a way the marketplace is build in 5 turns, with the maximum food (+3 fpt is what I found).

* denotes: Furuyama needs to be micromanaged to finish the worker the turn it grows.
** denotes: After Zojoji finishes the market, please MM Zojoji that the granary finishes the turn before Zojoji grows.
After the Granary is finished in Zojoji, please MM for higher food per turn; to allow Zojoji to grow as quickly as possible.

If Immo doesn't need the BG tile that Eridu also has access to; use it for Eridu.

Science Ministry

Ministry of State Authorized Violence Instructions

I want to start stacking units on the Iriquois borders to prepare for a possible attack on them:

The red dot I want stacked with Samurai
The yellow dot I want stacked with Samurai also.
The green dot can be stacked with some swordsmen.
The blue dot needs to be stacked with Samurai.
The cyan dot can be stacked with swordsmen.
The swordsman stack on the mountain can be reduced a bit because Veii is on a plain.

Take a Horseman from Shorin-Ryu and garrison it in Osgiliath to prevent riot
Take a Horseman from Shorin-Ryu and garrison it in Sto'vo'kor to prevent riot.

Purchases
Executive Order during Poll in Progress...
The Deaprtment of Domestic Affairs Authorizes the use of up to 200 Gold (in total; preferably no more than 150 per deal) for the use of obtaining Contacts and/or Techs. If the Foreign Adjuct says "We are close to a deal", then this may be pushed as high as 241 Gold (in total; preferably not all in 1 deal). DDA does not authorize GPT Deals at this time.

Settlers
With the results of the Poll in, Please move the En'Gha Settler to 1 Tile SW of the hill that Neapolis was formerly on.

Also, Awaken the settler at Sto'Vo'Kor and move him to Shorin-Ryu in preparation for settlement along the Zulu Border (exact position to be determined later)

Settler at Odawara stays where it is for now pending a tie-break.

Turn 3 - 500AD

Chat log

Summary:

Our galley on the other continent was sunk by a barb galley. Fanatikku built the First Samurai, and...


















Amaterasu is pleased and looks on as the First Samurai defends Japanitica!

 

[Rik Meleet]

Can the DP please post an overview of what trades were actually done ?
/me is at work and cannot access the chat or the save.

 

[Chieftess]

Just to note - for some strange reason, science went from 50% to 40% either on turn 1 or 2. It was changed back. There really wasn't much change in the number of turns researched. We can still get Engineering in 3 turns at max research. I did save and reload just before the samurai attacked to try and get a screenshot (reloaded once - taking a screenshot of the battle is tricky, since it usually shows the end result). Probably a memory bug or something.

 

[Civanator]

So we are in a Golden Age right now? (I cant view the save right now)

 

[Furiey]

Yes - our Golden Age has started!
