[SPOILERS] Bismark of Sumeria (luddite + Atlas1998)

[Gold Ergo Sum]

Do you plan on declaring war soon?

Can you post detailed instructions:
For instance, can you queue builds, with instructions to whip on X turn?
Can you advise on worker micro?
Advise on if you need settlers to go to a certain place?
Tech order?
Foreseeable civic changes?

I am just trying to decide if we can use someone spoiled to do this for a week, or if we need to find someone unspoiled?

No, I'm not planning on declaring war soon, although Parkin is out of his mind and thinks I am.

I... think I can do all that. Honestly my turns are pretty simple right now- just packing in as many cities as possible, and getting them started. The only problem is that I don't know how long it will be before I can play again.

I'll try and put together details tomorrow. Here's a quick update.

My economy has really rebounded quickly. I'm up to 17 cities, and I got the music great artist!


I used the artist for a golden age to switch into hinduism. Here's the demographics. With the golden age and max science, I'm #1 in gnp!


I'll soon get a great scientist, too .

Lot of reading to be a sub Of course it beats just jumping in blind.

Don't forget to PM me the civ password. Hopefully I can login and look around, and then ask any questions that come up.

[Gold Ergo Sum]

I have the password too if you need it.

[luddite]

btw... a lot of the cities I've founded recently need to be renamed. I was using a theme of irish beers, but you can name them whatever you want, Elkad.

[Elkad]

The spoiler writeup part I always neglect.

However, short note. Think I can manage to squeeze Monarchy in before the GA runs out for the triple civic switch. Might have to build a bit some wealth to pull it off. I'll look at it more tonight.

[luddite]

Hey all. I'm back... sort of. My schedule is going to be really erratic for a while, though, so I'm not sure when I'll have time to play civ again.

But please, post some updates Elkad . Even just text updates with no pictures are fine.

[luddite]

Just logged in to check things out. Looks good so far elkad . We're up to 5th in food yield, and rapidly gaining on Locke for 3rd place overall. Thanks to the golden age, we might actually succeed in getting the parthenon. Building wealth to finish monarchy was a good idea. I changed all the cities off wealth since it seems like we don't need it this turn- we can almost finish monarchy just from overflow. Running an engineer in Peacemonger was also a good idea- if it pops a GE instead of a scientist I'm sure we can think of a good use for it.

What's your plan with that worker on the "part cottage" sign btw? Are you going to use it to pasture the pigs by out of bounds? I was really short on workers in the south, so maybe we should whip one somewhere.

[Elkad]

That worker stopped to build a winery for the new city, had a move left, so I built part of a cottage. Settled the city so we had culture on the wines the next turn, moved him over and realized I'd forgotten we need Monarchy first.

Oops

Going to let the capital grow, I'll build settlers elsewhere. I'll work on science buildings there to leverage Civil Service.

What did you guys do with Great Scientist and what is the plan for Tech?
