[SPOILER] Krill PBEM9 spoiler thread

If you want something Japanese, not stereotyped and keeping with the apparent food theme at RB, there's always Kit Kat varieties:

Divine Spark was taken. I've gone with God of the Forge because I've decided I'm going to murder things and I want as many cheap united possible to upgrade.

Plan: finish second HS in 2 turns, start military in second city. Capital completes second builder in 4 turns, then starts military. Revolt into Agoge in 4 turns and build 6 slingers and 4 warriors. Kill stuff.

Simple plans have less things that can go wrong with them.

Update.

Warrior is bashing itself against the barb encampment for the Kandy quest, need to heal for a turn or two and one more attack to clear the camp. Scout found a barb warrior that looks to be from that camp, so I intend to lead it to the capital to die to a slinger.

Capital finishes second builder then onto military. The builder will hook the second horse, the sugar and gems. The military will basically head over to Bandar to kill it with an unknown number of slingers to be upgraded. Due to barb encampment gold I could upgrade 6 slingers without difficulty and have good left the over. 6 slingers would take me a further 6 turns to complete, then onto warriors for example.

I'm delaying building a campus or encampment because the encampment will be cheap anyway and I don't need them for horsemen as I have two capital horse. But I want that military out asap to start rolling things. So probably finishing Writing and buying that single tile for the campus, place it then grow on the sugar as the amenities roll in whilst I slow build the campus.

No one else has finished HS yet, but I'm still not expecting to beat Lavras to the first religion, not going to try. Just trying to beat era progression. Ichabod could get a religion in 15 turns, I'm projecting 27.

Culture is being dumped into State workforce, Foreign trade is almost complete. Trader can wait though. All inspirations except Foreign trade already completed.

Tldr Writing to Irrigation to Mining to Archery. Middle two almost complete but sandbagged. Buy tile next to three peaks, place campus. Build military and kill Bandar and Kumasi. Revolt to colonization and build as many settlers as appears sane or roll into Emperor K and take shit.

Killing stuff seems more likely

Are you planning on grabbing Military Tradition for the Maneuver policy? That would be really tempting with 2 horses hooked up. Horsemen and archers worked really well together for Ichabod in pbem3.

You're right, I should just go straight Mil Trade. Horsemen will do everything better.

I'm just going to put this here: I am a moron and should not be allowed to play PBEMs with decent players.

It can't be worse than my first city state attack in pbem5.
