[SPOILERS]Specialist of Everything: JC of the Zulu

[Gawdzak]

I found an island to my east, with a lot food...Unfortunately there's no way to split all that food into two cities. I'm seriously considering to orphan the fish just to get a few more land tiles.




Demos:




GNP is low because I'm teching Astro. Production is second to Plako in a golden age (I think).

Posting this because I find it cool that two of my cities are in the top 5 cities.




I will have Rifling next turn so I have the toys to start some trouble, but there's no easy/close targets.

Starting to build some ships.




Heroic Epic is more or less fully grown, 2 turns to another great person. 87% scientist, 12% artist and 1% engineer, getting the artist would be very bad...since I already got one.




The capital




Looks pretty sad tbh, I could grow it 3 more sizes to work more coasts, but I just don't think it's worth the effort right now. This is my National Epic city, and I need to run the specialists to minimize the chance of getting another artist, since the pool is polluted by the NE and the Taj artist points. If I get another artist, the 3rd golden age will wait for a long time... If only Mack didn't steal Economics.

Is there anything anyone want to see? I have city visibility on Dtay, Joey and Furungy and I will get investigate city on Dtay next turn. I wonder what he's up to nowadays.

Could you show the Economic Advisor and the Spying Advisor.

Beautiful Horoic city. Thanks for the update

Blood on the dance floor.

Sure, it's this right?




I've only recently started building any real units, I think my unit cost was almost always 0 for the first 150 turns of the game.




I put a decent number of points into Mackoti earlier because we were both trying to see each other's research back while he was still playing. Having research visibility on everyone was imo a big deal. If I saw someone research a tech I was about to research, I just wait for that person to finish researching that tech and then research it a few turn later with the known tech bonus. That is more valuable to me than anything a trait like Spiritual could offer me.

Added the EP graphs just for fun, the only one that has comparable EP output is Plako's Organized Sumeria.




A look at Dtay's capital:




I find the 2 riverside grass farms very strange and that's definitely not what I would have done. Since he's doing better than I am, I can't really say what he did was wrong, but I really wonder what his reasoning is for doing that.

Me too. If only I can get off this island sooner.

Yes, thank you!

Man, that Chinese island is MASSIVE!

So... who gets smacked with that yellow hockey stick I see in the power graph?

[Gawdzak]

Man, that Chinese island is MASSIVE!

That's exactly my reaction when I saw it. That's why I want it.

DZ's getting Chemistry next turn but he's got very few port cities on that coast. I should be able to take the whole island with little trouble which will give me room for like 10 extra cities.
