no move made

what is our decission
Addled Platypus
May 8, 2006, 15:09
move direction votes, right ?

P Rex 1
N One 1
Fed 1
EPW 1

NeuroticOne has the reins
EPW
May 8, 2006, 15:19
I would move to one. I think that spot or the one just below it will probably be the best spot for our next city.
fed1943
May 8, 2006, 15:37
Yes,move 1.

And if we are lucky one of the tiles 1,2 or 3 (after warrior moves) shall be a good site (not stellar,but good).

Then a little scouting,screen the settler, worker, AH and go.

Best regards,

I know we have 48 hours, but its taken the other teams an hour or less to play the turn. We are well over 12 hours, we know what we are going to do, why not go ahead and play it?

I will do this turn and hopefully NeuroticOne is ready soon

May 8, 2006, 18:54
move 1 -> reveal the maximum amount of land ;)
Addled Platypus
May 8, 2006, 18:55
and the reveal



possible river between the montains?
EPW
May 8, 2006, 19:17
spot directly below Bob looks like a likely place for a city, I think we should move south(2) next turn.

We also need a "what to research next" poll.
Addled Platypus
May 8, 2006, 19:33
I say

start the trek towards Oracle
NeuroticOne
May 8, 2006, 23:39
Are we going to try and chop the Oracle to completion?
Addled Platypus
May 9, 2006, 01:44
If we start it at the second city, sure

Bob'move:

As said 2 is the logical move. But, as Bob has time, I sugest a little trick: make up our mind if we want Bob to scout a little more to W or E (S indifferent).
If W: Bob 3, then 1, then 7 (to see all possible site'radius) then to W.
If E: ajustment according.

Next research: I think Animal Husbandry is the safe bet.
We have 1 cow, possibly two soon, and each improvment gives +1F +2H (and 1 health total, but that's not the point). Too good, to pass. And radius comes quickly (Creative).

Next build: settler; risky and questionable,of course, but I would go that way.

Best regards,
fruitmonkey

would move diagonally downwards 1 or 3 this time to get the most scouting done (5+ revealed tiles > 3+ revealed tiles) -> more chance of seeing important resources or city spots. 1 reveals at least 5 tiles 2 reveals 3+ tiles and 3 reveals 4+ tiles. so my choice would be 1 or 3 depending on the direction we want bob to move.
NeuroticOne
May 10, 2006, 02:02
I say we me Bob 3. There is another mountain off to the west just visable so we aren't going to open up as many tiles, plus there are a lot of unusable tiles there. There is desert to the east but it looks as though it might end.

I vote for Animal Husbandry as research too.

BTW just a quick question.. are we chop fans, middle men, or tree huggers? :evilgrin:
fruitmonkey
May 10, 2006, 03:44
chop the oracle ;)
fed1943
May 10, 2006, 06:27
Usually I try save forests. So, I chop first outside radius (if not dangerous) then the forests I shall put out later for improvments.

Best regards,
Addled Platypus
May 11, 2006, 16:40
definetly pick a site the connects with the river for city 2

what about 6 of the cows for #2

two hills to assist oracle
two good grass areas for growth
some chopping to assist
did I say cows?
NeuroticOne
May 12, 2006, 02:16
We have one vote for moving Bob 2.
We have 2-3 votes for 1 or 3.

Personally, I would pick 3. I will wait awhile longer before moving.

Yeah I vote 3 now.
NeuroticOne
May 12, 2006, 03:43
Ok, moved Bob 3. This is my first try at an upload so lets see if this works
NeuroticOne
May 12, 2006, 03:46
Wow... suprised it worked the first time. Looks like we might have found a good spot for our second city.

Also, I haven't seen a screen shot of our first city in awhile, but there are a deer and a silver resource near. Looks like they are to far away for the city radius but might be able to be utilized in the future.

I'll attach the screen shot here.
fed1943
May 12, 2006, 03:49
yes,3.

Best regards,

May 12, 2006, 04:12
Disregard my last post; it looks after the move, but I posted before.

Nice food and forests. It looks the site can be the current location of Bob,or 4 or 4-4.

Do you want a small variation of the plan (it takes +2 turns)? Bob moves 6;then 1;then 4;then 7. Three sites (always with cows) revelead.

Best regards,
NeuroticOne
May 13, 2006, 01:48
Ok folks. Next turn we choose what to research next and if I remember correctly we also get Bob the Second.

So far it looks like Animal Husbandry has the most votes.

The poll said wait till size 2 to build another settler, and we won't be size 2 yet so we have to figure out what to build next.
fed1943
May 13, 2006, 05:57
About next build: it looks we cannot do better than another warrior. May be change with pop 2? But, after settler, worker is needed, so not sure about said change.

Best regards,
Addled Platypus
May 13, 2006, 19:43
AH it is

1.Bob the second

2. settler

get a worker later

status check on current turn
NeuroticOne
May 14, 2006, 03:06
Ok, there was no real input on where to move Bob so I went with 6.

Animal Husbandry is now being researched at our current rate of 11 turns.

I was wrong on Bob the Second, he is going to be completed next turn. We are 4 turns from growth, with the cows being our only _good_ source of food.

As it is, the 2 Food - 1 Hammer tiles seem to be our best option.

Here is what Bob revealed:
NeuroticOne
May 14, 2006, 03:07
Oops.. city shot. Sorry, here is the Bob reveal.
fed1943
May 14, 2006, 04:28
Good move,I think.

I would say Bob: 1-4-4-7-7 to see the radius of the possible 3 sites (4,44,444 from current Bob'position).

About build:2nd warrior arrives first than pop 2 then 3rd warrior. I 3rd first then pop2, 4th; if not is questionable.

As I see it, 4th warrior is safer; both settler and worker help much devlopment. May be, 4th warrior,settler,worker.

Best regards,
Addled Platypus
May 14, 2006, 15:14
bob goes for the next hill? 1-2
fruitmonkey
May 15, 2006, 03:33
id move 3 - 1 here to get on the jungle hill
fruitmonkey
May 15, 2006, 11:47
name for our 2nd warrior? :)
NeuroticOne
May 15, 2006, 14:40
Ok, we need to come to a decision on where we want to move Bob. We have 2 votes for 1, if I am reading it right. And one vote for 3. Guess we just need to figure out where we are headed.

Also, what are we going to do with Bob the Second?

And, what are we going to build next?

I will wait for awhile before playing.
fruitmonkey
May 15, 2006, 14:47
tough decision what to build next ... another warrior maybe? our city needs size 2 before settler/worker i think...
fed1943
May 15, 2006, 14:52
About Bob I the important (as I see it) is to reveal all radius of possible 3 sites,as said previously.
Bob second: a little trip E-SE, as Bob first will try to see more to W.
And another warrior seems the only available choice.

Best regards,
Addled Platypus
May 15, 2006, 16:42
lets go with bob2 , next warrior bob3

bob1 1-2 to the hill

what are some of the time builds ?

I see its 11 till AH
a worker in how many?

we dont have mining yet

lets not build a worker to soon
NeuroticOne
May 15, 2006, 17:00
We have mining, wheel, and agriculture.

7 turns for Warrior. 15 turns for Worker. We are still at pop 1 so I don't think we should wait the 15 turns for a worker.
NeuroticOne
May 15, 2006, 17:09
Here is the city. Sent Bob the Second West, but I think you guys said East. Sorry about that.
NeuroticOne
May 15, 2006, 17:09
And the reveal...
fruitmonkey
May 16, 2006, 02:20
hm id say move bob2 to the deer hill and bob1 south
fed1943
May 16, 2006, 04:48
Bob2 yes. But Bob1 better 4 and 4 again, to reveal all potential radius to squares 8,7 and 78 (from his current localization). These place can be 2nd city we need.

About build: warrior, as worker is much needed but to stop pop at 1 is not at all good.

Best regards,

whom are where to move suggestions so far

bob 1....................bob2

2.............................7 -fm
4,4..........................7 -fed
2.............................7-PR
NeuroticOne
May 16, 2006, 17:11
My votes are Bob1 move 2.

I know I am out voted on Bob2 but since we are pretty sure that a move towards the deer hill will just reveal more tundra, I would suggest that a move towards the hills in the plains might be a better idea. Either way, I wouldn't move him far away from the city.
fruitmonkey
May 16, 2006, 18:43
we should keep in mind that any terrain is valuable when it comes to coppper / iron / luxuries and a city near the deer hill with access to the sea would also be a nice city spot for city 3 or 4.
NeuroticOne
May 17, 2006, 14:10
Ok, I just got the save. I will wait awhile before I play to see if there is any other input.
NeuroticOne
May 17, 2006, 16:25
Move of Bob2
NeuroticOne
May 17, 2006, 16:26
Move of Bob1.

OMG stone. WE. MUST. HAVE!!!1
fruitmonkey
May 18, 2006, 04:59
id move bob 1 to 3 and bob2 towards the deer hill.
fed1943
May 18, 2006, 05:17
Given the adopted line of scouting, I agree with Fruitmonkey.

Best regards,
Addled Platypus
May 18, 2006, 15:11
totaly agree with EPW

all efforts for stone

changing thoughts on second city:

new thought: in the forrest, behind bob1 in post #52

river will provide two farms right away, and it looks like two additional hills
