Caravan Production Strategy

[cavebear]

Your Minster of City Planning is hard at work, thanks to his amazing Staff that keeps pestering (er, advising him) of new and useful ideas. This time, the Staff is suggesting that we organize our Caravan-building efforts (got to have those things) into relay-teams of 4 cities at a time. Four cities will always be kept busy building Caravans, while the rest catch up on other needed items the good of the whole Civ. When those 4 cities have built Caravans, they will turn to other needs, and another group of 4 will take their turn at it.

Let's get a regular production of Caravans going for the greater good of our Fabulous Civ!

[Shadowlord]

Yes, I agree that we should establish a quota for caravan production, to ensure that we always have sufficient workers ready to complete our great projects before the other, less enlightened civilizations.

[cavebear]

And, of course, some of those Caravans will be good for overseas trade routes. Big gold and science beaker bonuses!

Sounds like a good idea to me.

[Immortal Wombat]

I agree. It'll be good to keep a healthy population of camels, so that they're always around for future generations to enjoy, and never become extinct.

Damn greenies....



A sound plan, cavebear - perhaps you should check with Trade Advisor El Awrence as well, but he'd be foolish to disagree.

Lets have a regular supply of Diplomats for tech stealing, unit bribing and city subversion after they have built lovely big embassies

I would welcome the recommendations of the Trade Advisor. But since he hasn't asked me to produce anything for him, and since I need to keep idle hands hard at work, I am making my best guesses.

Mr. Foreign Minister Hydey - I will definately attempt to get 2 Diplomats into the production schedule (on a regular basis). Hopefully, at convenient points of departure for their missions.

Let there be camels galore.

Thank you, Mr. Trade Advisor El Awrence. Your desire has been noted and will be acted upon swiftly!
