Early Landing Comparison Game #6

[Zenon]

Nice game, La Fayette!

I wonder how you managed to leave this home continent without black clicking. IIRC there was just one way over the ocean towards the Indians: westward like Columbus

One day I will try your style, but not in an Early Landing Game.

Hardly - Solo beat me with his Size-12 city!

La Fayette,

Unfortunately, the save you posted reveals little about your accomplishment. One closer to launch might have been a better choice.

Not bad, La Fayette, and close to the best results in the earlier EL games. Give EL #7 a try. There are so many perfect city sites on Zenon's map, you may be even able to flirt with 1000 AD without helper programs!

Elephant, I am afraid credit goes to Samson (as usual) for first noticing that smaller is sometimes more efficient in OCC games. However, bigger sized OCC cities add more variety to the game and are much more fun to play and manage. It's gets boring to always be begging for gold when at size 12.

...and even more so at Size 1 - I played a couple of those a while back, and there is really nothing else to do...

Yes, stupid question, it´s in your log. But now I see why you built it so early!

You should try ELCG #7. It´s fun. And I promise you will land a few hundred years earlier.

I'll certainly try #7, even without any hope of pre-1000 landing
