[spoilers] OT4E is gonna try something special

[OT4E]

Before start there are some thoughts about my overall strategy. Of course I will adjust it to the situation or may be totally rework.

I want to have early forges, so Metal Casting will be one of my first key techs, thanks to RTR mod which made it less expensive, so going for it can be even more reasonable as well as it made less reasonable to take it with Oracle.

I doubt I will base my development on early wonders, but more likely I will try to grab some after forges and hooking strategic resource using the maximum bonus. Even if I lose them I make gold. But examining the experience of pb32 I must admit that wonders do not fall very early in casual games.

I will be happy to get just Colossus and HG, although I expect there can be a challenge for HG with Joao/khmer who is also EXP and has suitable UB.

I also think about making GE or a chance for GE to bulb machinery or engineering for war proposes. Enginering can let me break through common walls of HA people build for defense early.

In general I am going to rely on big multi-purposal cities where the main question is how to keep it happy. This one I hope I will be able to solve with UB and luxuries.

From the first view the map seems to be very rich.



Also to note there are many fresh water lakes. The hardest choice to pick at this stage is where to go with scout.

Give Peace a Chance

Peace is a war with yourself.

Hey y'all,

Here's your sim. Sorry it took so long; I got very sick and then had to travel, so I sorta forgot. Anyways, good luck!

Thanks, GJ.

lushness: fair but not extreme (IN MY OPINION )

Interesting what is extreme lushness by greenline.

My second city is gonna have 4 food sources. Well, nothing to be unhappy about, just pointing out.

Extreme for me would be like PB27, which in this case would mean adding a bunch more rivers and clumps of precious metals (albeit jungled ones)

On T5 ipecac/wetbandit/OH found me with their scout. It means that the distance between our capitals is not bigger than 15 tiles.


Happy resources found so far: furs, ivory, sugar, silks.

Like the Cap name! Do you think it has one now you know you have a close neighbour?

Don't get too excited about the capital name, only have to change one letter after the first war declaration. GavePeaceChance
