[SPOILERS] Lewger goes for the Bigwyn

[Lewwyn]

You want to win culture?? You gotta have some chicken pizza!!

thats fine, but i'd rather build it in king arthur, which will be #3 culture city and has much less culture than gilgamesh. it might take a turn or two long if we stop for building other stuff or as the odyssey needs to take a workshop from it, but thats ok, I don't think there's any chance someone will beat us

do you want to build the crappy priest wonder too? haha

can I play the turn tonite? it will be the last one I play for awhile, prob, unless you get banned from rbmod again

[Lewwyn]

Sure go for the turn.

[Bigger]

Sure go for the turn.

doing it now. why did you send the buddhist missionary to Beowulf? now I have to squeek another one out somewhere for the iliad, hehe.

It automoved there so I figured that's where you wanted it :P

Also you could use the one thats next popul for Illiad, at least thats what I was going to do with it.

thats for volsung, which needs it even more than the iliad (i.e. the AP religion hammers)

beowulf isn't bad, its not hammer rich, but will have to finish the courthouse first

We need to spread the religions for temples anyway so that we can build all the cathedrals in our culture cities.

i refused their begging. you can figure out if there is someway to help them. I did give them a source of horses earlier, since their horses are on the east side and slowcheetah could potentially pillage them or take that city. their iron is on the commodore side and more secure, so I didn't bother giving them an iron.

i know. ill let you figure out how to balance that with war preparations vs commodore.

I guess buddhism is top priority for hammers, then christianity (since there's no Christian shrine).. then hinduism (scooter) then confuscianism (slowcheetah) then taoism (commodore)..

we don't have islam since it was just founded a couple of turns ago, but im hoping we get a spread in kevalah

right, so I played my last turn for awhile (hopefully). I turned up the research to start our astronomy run (we needed to start the spice plantation next turn). have wealth builds in king arthur (sorry, you probably should take this off), gilgamesh, and hindel.. you can decide if we need to keep these or what. anyway, Lewwyn, I'll let you know what my plans were for a few micro things, you can change them if you see something better but here's what I was planning:


I built a missionary in rama's journey - the city that it seemed would be hurt least by delaying infastructure. if you shuffle the boats around you can probably get it here in 5-6 turns. anyway kept the wheat as it shaved a turn off the harbor - as soon as harbor is done i'd give the wheat back to gilgamesh and start growing gilgamesh. no real reason to take the iliad to size 10.


we need longbows and knights, really. with this size we can pretty much 1 turn military if you alternate - longbow, knight, longbow, knight. I guess 1 turn a knight if you can otherwise do a longbow.


odyssey needs hammers, not coast tiles. the iliad can't really afford to give up the grassland workshops, so I think we need to workshop over the fort here. but first you have to finish up the desert and plains tile forts not in a BFC that would allow a ship to pass from the east through Beowulf into the lake. I've got 1 worker on each but forts take forever so just send any to those tiles as you can, then workshop this, I think.


this is easy - next turn the plains farm becomes a workshop and Don Quixote reaches size 10. claim the mine with the new pop, move the coast tile to the workshop currently being worked by paradise lost - then cap growth at size 10. after the courthouse finishes you can pump out army/navy


ok i've been greedy here with the shared hammers to get infastructure into shahnahmah. probably need to give them back to song of roland at some point to get military out quicker.

Actually check the power graph. serdoa is starting to pull away and you need to figure out ways to get us military quicker. don quixote will help, maybe the aeneid too. maybe some other spots.


this is probably easy too. keep this configuration until maoi is complete, then give up mine and workshops (well plains workshop at least) and growgrowgrow.

good luck . I'm going to try to keep my logins limited to 3 times a week
