Cheers. Given the granary i don't think the low MFG is relevant given Toroidal. Also, double whip and triple.whip go into what precisely?

Whips are for settler for marble city and settler for Oracle city. Whip on 42 and 45.

t41 finally arrived.....still no religions but I did spot Alhazard's unguarded third? fourth? city.  (his second went to claim horses/wheat to his "north")





Back home plans continue to unfold:




Wasn't quite quick enough with the shift-printscrn to catch all three chops.  frown
FF grew to size 4 at the end of t40.  Swapped to worker with one turn left on chariot #2 mainly to save on the unit upkeep.  We'll start paying some next turn after Sex Dwarf gets whipped but no point in paying more than we have to.  It's going to be tight getting to Priesthood eot 47 if we have to go Polytheism.  Plus the extra worker turn will come in handy I'm sure.  wink



F8 (before eot):




Note that Krank added one pop at turn roll.

F9 with max tax:




Raising tech rate to 100% indicates both Alhazard and Auro have Myst.  I could finish Myst t42 but that would be silly as I'd have to not whip Sex Dwarf and would then be unable to 1t Meditation with the overflow beakers on t43.  Med would still finish t44 but if it falls t43 I can do Polytheism instead.  smile  


So far, so good.  smile

You going to retreat that warrior so it doesn't get whacked by the chariot?

Yes. I wasn't planning on advancing but when I saw his fully fortified warrior had pulled up stakes I figured there was something interesting to see. wink

I'd prefer not to attract his attention too much in this area. His chariot seems to be doing scouting so he may well come over for a look. Hopefully not. But our chariot is in the area, out of sight for the moment.

Alhazard advanced his chariot so pulled the warrior back and brought our chariot up in case Alhazard decides to do something silly.
Caught sight of an Auro scout with promo in hand up north as well. Still no contact with Khan or Dalaphir

Hired two scientists in Krank, turned tech back on, whipped Sex Dwarf for the Marble settler.


Oh, and Buddhism was FIDAL. Hinduism is still up for grabs. Mysticism due eot 43 with a ton of beaker overflow.

Is Hinduism 1 turnable without delaying Oracle? If yes go for it. If not, meh. Do you know who got Bud?

Poly will be 2t. IF Hindu is still up for grabs I'll go for it so long as Priesthood can still be 2turned which I think is the case. Will recount the pennies when t44 rolls around. Problem is I won't have an exact count on expenses until t46 when Control gets founded for the Marble. Suspect Device won't affect main costs until 48 other than the upkeep for the settler but I'm expecting an ugly jump in city main t46 and 48.


No idea who got Buddhism.

43 played.....Poly is still up for grabs.  




Other than that.... moving along nicely.


It occurs to me that I don't need to whip Sex Dwarf t45, I can just complete the settler by hand.  Then grow to size 6 eot 48 ready for another whipping.

T44 done....going for Poly. smile


Alhazard is being a bit annoying with his chariot, may have to dow next turn to stop him from interfering with chopping for the Oracle.
And there is a barb SE of Feuer Frei. Fresh chariot should take care of that.

6th worker is on the board, #7 due eo47. Decided to not whip Sex Dwarf. Loose a few hammers into mids but gain a bit of commerce and happy cap room. Might need that commerce to squeak out Priesthood in time.
