Chat 7 orders

Makahlua · September 30, 2003, 12:40

I figured I'd better start a thread like this for each chat so we have a central place to dicuss moves

Domestic:
I just noticed TH lacks a barracks, they could build that after the temple, with ot without another archer in between. Bifrost and SaG also lack them, SaG is building a need temple (to reach across the channel for cattle and wheat) Bifrost -does- have a barracks queued after the worker.

As soon as NA is done with it's temple I can start another settler, we need only one more after that to finish out the sites from the prior poll. We do need a city west of the gem mountains to keep the ai away from there though; below I've X'd I think the best spot. There is one land tile just out of it's radius, but for that they get both fish instead of just one, you could also put it right where Ormzud is if you wanted that instead.

Military: In response to the Persians, I can keep BobC shadowing them and get 2 archers (Pierce and Twang) to that landing area in about 4 turns. If I bring Kloreep in the north mts down to Thor's Hammer for MP, I can also free up Shooter (archer) and get him there in about 6. We'll also have a 4th archer coming out of VH about then, and Hammer can start a 5th in 3 turns after it's temple is done. Although TH maybe better making a couple of galleys once we trade for MM

Trading: Well I just -can't- get Map Making without trading contacts, so I'm thinking of this 3-way

- Persia: Contact/Spain + 40g for Map Making; sell CB for 9g
- Egypt: Contact/Persia for Philosophy
- Spain: buy HBR for 125g + 1gpt

Which will leave us with 4g in the treasury and 7 gpt income, but will bring us up to parity with Spain and Egypt and only 1 tech behind Persia

Whom we should be able to squeeze for Code of Laws after picking off enough settler/defender pairs and/or taking the fight to them

Additions and comments?

You sure you don't want to be part of the UOA?

GK is an SPDG oldschooler who was kicking around these parts over a year ago when the party system caused probably the worst mess in the history of the Civ3 demo games. So I can understand why he and a lot of others aren't entirely enthused about joining parties.

Though a committed warmonger, I've neven known him to endorse or join a party. He probably won't join your party, but he'll still probably vote in favor of ever war resolution

Besides, it's remotely possible that he agrees with someone like me that there's something inherently oxymoronic to an 'orderly organization of barbarians'

Of course it's oxymoronic. That's part of the fun of it.

Truly though, I don't see that the political parties are going to take hold at all in this game. That's fine. I wasn't around for the first "go-around" with the political parties, but if they're not going to happen it's not a big deal to me. The UOA was just a fun suggestion and I really didn't think it would take any hold in the first place.

hi ,

we should move that city location to the plain tile , this way our ships can save at least two turns in getting fast from one side of our island to the other , .......

We gotta be careful with so many gt deals and also so many city improvements - we will certainly need more cities and roads in order to keep on the right side of 0gpt. Although I see no problems with these particular DM plans, we're going to have to pick what to build very carefully.
