[SPOILERS] OMFG! There's a Succubus in my Bathhouse! Thoth plays with Tebryn

[Thoth]

After fog gazing and moving the warrior and scout, I settled in place.

This doesn't look like a very good capital spot, but it'll do to get started.

Tech set to Agriculture, Scout dialed up as first build.

[Thoth]

The land as I know it as of turn 7:

East of the Capital:

South and West:

Tech path: Ag (done), Myst (due eot 19), Wheel (eot 26? 27?), collect gold until city 2 founded (circa t32), AH, Crafting.

Civics plans: Godking/Religion post Myst. Other civics later.

Build plans: Worker (due eot 12), War, War, Settler, War, Worker, worker, war, war, settler. I'll want to fit an Elder Council in there somewhere as well.

Fog gazing suggests mountain ranges East, West and south. Looks like we'll have a semi-safe pocket of land each to build in. Nice collection of health resources so far (all three grains, 2 meat, Life Mana) but nothing much in the way of happy or commerce (one incense and the starting wines).

There are some very nice high hammer sites close by that I can get up and running quickly to turbo charge my expansion. (city 2 can push out 18 hammers at food neutral size 5 with mining and AH. Farmed wheat (borrowed from capital), Cows and 3 PH mines). I'm glad there aren't any Expansive leaders on this map.

[Thoth]

No save yet today, so I did some micro planning:

I'll grow to size 4 and complete Myst at eot 19, spend t20 in anarchy (GK/Religion), start settler at size 4 (2/19 food) on t21 working 3x plains forests and the farmed Wheat for +2 food, +10-->15 hammers per turn.

t26 I'll have 85 hammers into the settler. I'll swap back to the warrior (4 h invested) working Wheat, plains farm, farmed Wines and a forest for 8-->12 hammers and +4 food into the kitty.

Eot 26 warrior finishes. I'll have 62/77 beakers into Exploration. 6/19 food

t27 swap back to settler. work Wheat, 2x fp, 1 x farmed wines = 15 beakers. 99/145 into settler.

t28: tech to 0, select AH. work wheat, wines, plains, plains forest. 12c--> 18gold. 8 h-->12 + 4 food= 16 food hammers. 115/145 at eot
29: same. 36 gold, 131/145 at eot.
t30: tech back on. work wheat, 2x oasis, 1 x wines = 14 foodhammers 15 commerce x1.2 known tech = 18 beakers into AH. Settler done eot. (I need tech back on this turn in order to complete AH eot 37 so that I can start the cow pasture t38).
t31: start warrior working Wheat, 2x oasis + farmed grasslands=+8 food. 14/19 at eot. 6/16h into warrior, 35b into AH.
t32: complete road. found city 2. Incur 3 gpt maint costs. city 2 works wheat, starts warrior. cap works 2x oasis + grass farm + wines = +5 food, 6 hammers. Growth to size 5 at eot. 19 --> 22 bpt. 57 beakers into AH at eot.
t33: work 2x oasis, wines, plains, grass farm. 7hammers, +5 food. Total commerce: 20 x 1.2--> 24 beakers into AH. 81 beakers into AH at eot. Capital warrior done with 3h overflow.
t34: 3h overflow becomes 2h. Same tile config. 15 foodhammers into worker. 24 beakers into AH. 104 at eot. City 2 grows to size 2 at eot.
t35: City 2 works wheat/cows. Cap puts 12 foodhammers into worker. 128 beakers into AH at eot.
t36: City 2 works wheat/riverside plains farm. Cap swaps grass farm for forest. 13 food hammers into worker. 24 b into AH--> 152 at eot.
t37: AH done at eot with 9 beakers overflow., worker 2 done eot, worker 1 positioned in city 2. 21gold left.
t38: 9b ovf becomes 7 beakers. Start teching Crafting. Capital starts settler #2.

HAH. Okay, that's how Sheiam get an economy boost.

[HidingKneel]

What difficulty are you guys playing on?

[GreyWolf]

So, really, what level are you playing at and what you're going to do with the settler?

[Tasunke]

obviously we will use the settler as an extra scout! :D

Immortal difficulty.
