Got Taj, switched to nationhood. Running research at 50% - I went from 145->133, but went from losing 4 to losing 1 gold.

I get feudalism in 3, guilds 4 after, banking 4 after. Losing my cap basically killed my research.

stick built a settler???

[Image: t12842.JPG]

I think he's looking to expand into someone...

Well, operation "cut off his gems" goes into effect next turn - I'll have 2 GII archers.

Hmm...

here's a q:

I could go in, kill his gems and the road, and then delete the archers (because, frankly, he'll easily be able to kill each of the archers - it's just XP for him and weariness for me.

But then - he'll never really know what happened - well, I guess he'll see that I pillaged...

I dunno - to all those lurkers who are still around... cheesy move? or ok?

that's not my only option, btw - option 2 is to move in in and see if I can raze a city.

Nothing cheesy about that.

gotta think about this some... ran a test... I was assuming that, with G2, I could use 1 movement to go 2 roads, up to the top of the hill, then pillage with the 2nd move. Turns out, you can't. You can move 1 road in your territory, then climb a hill, then pillage... not 2.

So, can't do this for another turn...

need to think about what i want to do...

Also, he moved a stack of catapults into Pelvis, so maybe he's coming in after me. Or maybe he's just preparing for me to come in after him, i dunno.

founded lavalamp in lavas old place... put in a couple of pikes. *sigh* If i'd done that in the first place, maybe I'd still have the damn thing....

setting up to take out the gems, which I hope will hurt stick. mainly, just building and drafting...

Lavalamp:

I have to figure out if I want to whip in the granary or not. I may not need to. I'll have to sim it out, though. With the granary, I should grow every turn or so with fish/rice/sheep.

I could be back working most of those towns by the end of my GA, which will be nice.

Looking at it, I think maybe he's just reacting to my build up in drafted maces...

So, it looks like it doesn't matter if I whip in a granary or not - I can't do it really early, anyway, since I'm not expansive. I'll probably do it when I can, but that won't be till I'm size 3 or 4 anyway.

Got the save, won't play for a little while, since stick can't play till sunday anyway.

Below is how stick plans to defend his gems.

or, in other words, ineffectively. Can't take the city without more - not with a 60% defense and grenadiers in it - but the gems and road? toast.
