[SPOILERS] naufragar and Rusten get nickel-and-dimed

We got eyes on the Babylonian capital. They seem very landlocked. Odd.



They put the full 4 EP into us.

At least we know for sure that the capitals are far from mirrored, that's useful. They've got wet corn to our dry and a plains forest 1st ring to speed up worker if expansive. That helps explains why there are so many different openings, with some going wb first while growing and others remaining on size 1. I like imbalances within reason so no complaints here.

Surprised they didn't pick expansive with that capital. Earlier worker for a 6F tile.

Speaking of 6f tiles:


I think scout now works back to us in the west.

I can now confirm that I'm able to log in and play. Had 2 crashes at first, but after reinstalling the mod and turning off admin privileges it worked like a charm. Not sure which action solved it.

I guess we'll take woodsman on the scout after beating the lion and continue scouting. Shouldn't be necessary to stop to heal.

Good to hear. Sorry that a turn report's going to be a bit late. Boak and MSCC both got techs. Total rival military went up 4k, so MSCC didn't get archery yet.

P.S. Turning off admin privileges? Weird.

Checking admin privileges manually is the only change I could remember doing since I last played on the servers, but I wouldn't really expect that to be the reason no.

No sweat on the report, I was planning on logging in regardless.

Yes, you can relax regarding MSCC, they're most likely going hunting-mining-BW. If they go archery instead of BW then there's cause for concern, but nothing to worry about right now.
I think they're much more concerned about using all their amazing 6F tiles to grow quickly to charismatic happy caps with cheap granaries. My fear barometer is very low.

dancing  Nice long river, too. There's a new lion. We flawlessly beat the last one. Borsche got BW.

Excellent! And the gems are clearly within our sphere of influence, unless there's another neighbour to the immediate south.

Did you promote the scout? Might be worth holding on to the promotion for faster heal later seeing as it won flawlessly.
WHat movement did you have in mind? I guess SW-NW followed by NW-TBD makes sense? 1NW to farm xp hoping to run into the lion isn't terrible either. If we get 5xp and woodsman 2 it will speed up our scout and keep it completely safe from barbarians later.

There's another panther lurking 1E of the gems, so he might take a bite out of us. Still didn't promote because we should be getting 99.9% odds. For scouting, I'm thinking NW-SW, SW, then working to the coast through the woods. I think I'm happy to leave the two tiles by the desert hill in fog because I can't imagine Commodore putting copper on either of the floodplains or forest.

Agreed. The more panthers the better, woody2 will help so much for exploration of that jungle area.
