Gillette Turn Discussion

[haphazard1]

I agree with YossarianLives that two rivals founded second cities before we played our last turn; just posted about it over in C&D based on the land figures. TEAM founding this turn before us works as well from pop, as noted.

Our military vulnerability worries me. The capital is undefended and our warriors could not get there quickly enough if someone came out of the fog with even a single warrior. I guess we could build one at max hammers if necessary, though. But with other civs knowing BW and settling second cities, the possibility of an opportunistic axe showing up needs to be kept in mind.

Completely off topic, but I like that we now have this smiley :aar: if we want it for when we're passing the turn over the the Pirates.

Still following the plan. Progress:



Occam:



To be clear, that sign indicates 4T left on a cottage. It is 1/5 done. If people prefer a different variation of signs then I'm open to it. Demos:

Good work scooter, thanks for playing for us.

I like the notation, though I have to point out that cottages only take 4t (except on FP), so that there is a 3t cottage.

I've been going off this assumption this whole time because I was like 90% sure this was the case, and then I hovered over the cottage button on my worker (the one in neutral territory) and it said 5T. Must've been an artifact of the fact that it's on a tile I can't cottage since it wasn't in our borders. I'll fix it next time I login.

It says 5t because he's already moved this turn. If you told him to start building a cottage there (were it possible), it would complete 5t from now; 1t of him sitting there and 4t of building it. Kind of confusing but there is a method to it.

This is one of the problems with this game. I'm really starting to get into it and then Pirates has a 27 hour turn just now for them only. I'm actually totally fine with a slowish pace, but the lack of consistency is lame.

[YossarianLives]

At least we can always count on the Trolls for a fast turnaround.

Played turn, becasue of a misclick second worken ended up on deeer tile(wife caled ,kid made noise) but i dnt think this is a big setback for us so not worth asking for a reload.
