[R&F] Unique Infrastructure Elimination Thread

[kryat]

1. America - Film Studio [7]
2. Arabia - Madrasa [24]
3. Australia - Outback Station [26]
5. Brazil - Street Carnival / Copacabana [7-3=4] The carnival project just doesn’t seem to be that powerful.
7. Cree - Mekewap [24]
8. Dutch - Polder [24]
10. England - Royal Navy Dockyard [6+1=7] I probably love harbors more than I should, but a half price harbor is just great, even if it has minimal other benefits.
11. France - Chateau [18]
13. Germany - Hansa [22]
14. Greece - Acropolis [22]
15. India - Stepwell [13]
16. Indonesia - Kampung [28]

1. America - Film Studio [7+1=8] = That +100% tourism. Will always defend. Just grateful it lasted this long!
2. Arabia - Madrasa [24]
3. Australia - Outback Station [26]
5. Brazil - Street Carnival / Copacabana [4-3=1] Time to go...
7. Cree - Mekewap [24]
8. Dutch - Polder [24]
10. England - Royal Navy Dockyard [7]

[Disgustipated]

1. America - Film Studio [8]
2. Arabia - Madrasa [24]
3. Australia - Outback Station [26]
5. Brazil - Street Carnival / Copacabana [1-3=Eliminated] This district rarely gets built that many times before end game, usually just once for Colosseum. And projects take too long in some cases.
7. Cree - Mekewap [24]
8. Dutch - Polder [24]
10. England - Royal Navy Dockyard [7]
11. France - Chateau [18]
13. Germany - Hansa [22]
14. Greece - Acropolis [22+1=23] Early cultural victories are always nice. My earliest is still with Pericles.
15. India - Stepwell [13]
16. Indonesia - Kampung [28]
20. Korea - Seowon [25]
21. Macedon - Basilikoi Paides [23]
22. Mapuche - Chemamull [25]
23. Mongolia - Ordu [22]
26. Persia - Pairidaeza [23]
27. Poland - Sukiennice [21]
29. Russia - Lavra [28]
30. Scotland - Golf Course [14]
32. Spain - Mission [13]
33. Sumeria - Ziggurat [23]
34. Zulu - Ikanda [21]

 

[Kinestic]

1. America - Film Studio [5] [8-3] It is too focused. All of the other UI that are left give you options to supplement other victory paths, even if they are not focused towards it. With a bonus to tourism, it doesn’t help with any other victory.
2. Arabia - Madrasa [24]
3. Australia - Outback Station [26]
5. Brazil - Street Carnival / Copacabana [1]
7. Cree - Mekewap [24]
8. Dutch - Polder [24]
10. England - Royal Navy Dockyard [7]
11. France - Chateau [18]
13. Germany - Hansa [22]
14. Greece - Acropolis [22]
15. India - Stepwell [13]
16. Indonesia - Kampung [28]
20. Korea - Seowon [25]
21. Macedon - Basilikoi Paides [23]
22. Mapuche - Chemamull [25]
23. Mongolia - Ordu [22]
26. Persia - Pairidaeza [23]
27. Poland - Sukiennice [21]
29. Russia - Lavra [28]
30. Scotland - Golf Course [14]
32. Spain - Mission [13]
33. Sumeria - Ziggurat [24] [23+1] A library worth of science, and half a monument’s culture if next to a river, as well as early era score for the first one you build, all for a single builder charge? Yes please!
34. Zulu - Ikanda [21]

 

[Jkchart]

@Legacy of Smiles it appears that Kinsetic's post was in progress of being written as Disgustipated posted his, and therefore neither Brazil's elimination nor Greece's actual score have been made accurate and need to be fixed/merged.

 

[Leathaface]

1. America - Film Studio [5]
2. Arabia - Madrasa [24]
3. Australia - Outback Station [26]
7. Cree - Mekewap [24]
8. Dutch - Polder [24-3=21] I often don't find areas to place polders, plus unless you've got multiple polders together a single polder's yields isn't special.
10. England - Royal Navy Dockyard [7]
11. France - Chateau [18]
13. Germany - Hansa [22]
14. Greece - Acropolis [23]
15. India - Stepwell [13]
16. Indonesia - Kampung [28]
20. Korea - Seowon [25+1=26] It's never difficult to get a 3 or 4 adjacency bonus for a campus? Unless i'm playing as Japan, Australia or Brazil it is hard to get those adjacency bonuses. Plus you get a +4 adjacency bonus in every city you build the Seowon. I've never had a game where I get that much Science in every city.
21. Macedon - Basilikoi Paides [23]

32. Spain - Mission [13-10 = 10] RNG hurts this improvement, and the civ in general. The extra science won't mean much even if I detour to the civic that comes way too late to have an impact.

[Josephias]

I forgot my turn following the first look, guess this weekend I’ll get to post on mornings


1. America - Film Studio [5]
2. Arabia - Madrasa [24]
3. Australia - Outback Station [26]
7. Cree - Mekewap [24]
8. Dutch - Polder [21]
10. England - Royal Navy Dockyard [7]
11. France - Chateau [18-3=15] I’m downvoting river improvements now, as I always find myself struggling if I should use these river tiles for something else. Out of them, I think Chateau is the least beneficial, so here we go.
13. Germany - Hansa [22]
14. Greece - Acropolis [24] Earn free envoys, monopolize the writers, get awesome adjacency. So good.
15. India - Stepwell [13]
16. Indonesia - Kampung [28]
20. Korea - Seowon [26]
21. Macedon - Basilikoi Paides [23]
22. Mapuche - Chemamull [25]

26. Persia - Pairidaeza [23]
27. Poland - Sukiennice [21]
29. Russia - Lavra [28]
30. Scotland - Golf Course [14]
32. Spain - Mission [10+1=11] I like how this building portrays a different aspect of Spain’s religious focus, not being only that Inquisition that nobody expects. It is a cute building to have in the map, with nice bonuses (even if not relevants as others)
33. Sumeria - Ziggurat [24]
34. Zulu - Ikanda [21]

 

[Pietato]

1. America - Film Studio [5]
2. Arabia - Madrasa [24]
3. Australia - Outback Station [26]
7. Cree - Mekewap [25] - The strongest improvement in the game. Once you hit cartography, your gold income eclipses everyone else. Also adds food, production and housing. No need for farms as Cree.
8. Dutch - Polder [21]
10. England - Royal Navy Dockyard [7]
11. France - Chateau [12] Never found them worth it, outside of a few specific cases.
13. Germany - Hansa [22]
14. Greece - Acropolis [24]
15. India - Stepwell [13]
16. Indonesia - Kampung [28]
20. Korea - Seowon [26]

7. Cree - Mekewap [25]
8. Dutch - Polder [21]
10. England - Royal Navy Dockyard [7]
11. France - Chateau [12-3=9] Definitely weaker than the mission and most unique districts.
13. Germany - Hansa [22]
14. Greece - Acropolis [24] Earn free envoys, monopolize the writers, get awesome adjacency. So good.
15. India - Stepwell [13]
16. Indonesia - Kampung [28]
20. Korea - Seowon [26]
21. Macedon - Basilikoi Paides [23]
22. Mapuche - Chemamull [25]

26. Persia - Pairidaeza [23]
27. Poland - Sukiennice [21]
29. Russia - Lavra [28]
30. Scotland - Golf Course [14]
32. Spain - Mission [11+1=12] +4 faith on another continent or +2 otherwise, +2 science from campus adjacency and +2 science by default once new techs are discovered. Can be great for science.
33. Sumeria - Ziggurat [24]
34. Zulu - Ikanda [21]

 

[OmegaDestroyer]

1. America - Film Studio [5]
2. Arabia - Madrasa [24]
3. Australia - Outback Station [26]
7. Cree - Mekewap [25]
8. Dutch - Polder [21]
10. England - Royal Navy Dockyard [7-3=4] The cheaper cost is appreciated and the free melee unit can be nice, it simply cannot stack up to the other options in terms of usefulness.
11. France - Chateau [9]
13. Germany - Hansa [22]
14. Greece - Acropolis [24]
15. India - Stepwell [13]
16. Indonesia - Kampung [28+1=29] The best way to turn useless coast into something amazing.
20. Korea - Seowon [26]
21. Macedon - Basilikoi Paides [23]
22. Mapuche - Chemamull [25]

11. France - Chateau [9]
13. Germany - Hansa [22]

7. Cree - Mekewap [25]
8. Dutch - Polder [21]
10. England - Royal Navy Dockyard [4]
11. France - Chateau [6] (9-3) I usually have better things to do with tiles next to rivers, and besides chateaus were a symbol of greed and failure that mostly got burned to the ground during the revolution. Hey let's have all our rich people that oppress that masses just hang out in nice houses that are totally undefended, great idea totally worthy of being a unique structure.

1. America - Film Studio [5+1 = 6] Mostly because I can and because it still hasn't died but I still really like it. It's also better than the Chateau
2. Arabia - Madrasa [24]
3. Australia - Outback Station [27]
7. Cree - Mekewap [25]
8. Dutch - Polder [21]
10. England - Royal Navy Dockyard [4]

[BarbarianHunter]

1. America - Film Studio [7] (6+1) --- A strategic gem offering a late game insurance policy and resolve to see the CV through rather than alter course. +100% tourism to a specific city where you'd have an amphitheater w/ 2 books, an archeological museum with 3 themed artifacts, and a few wonders (with slots)…then double that. Feel free to buy copies in similar cities in your empire as needed until you pull out the challenging CV win. Who knows, maybe you've already won by now and won't need the film studio? Bully bully for you .
