  • Techwhore Deal

    We now have a excellent opportunity to techwhore either polytheism or mathmatics. We can buy poly from egypt for wm,14gpt,117g. or we can buy mathmatics for wm,5gpt,108.
    I suggets we get poly and here is why. It is simply worth more and with it we are guarenteed I believe to be able to get return from other civs. We can sell it to Koreans,English,Spain and Irioquis for math,writing, and 2 workers probably + gold. I am unsure of the specific amounts but since poly is more expensive than either of these it is a good bet. That would bring the "cost of each tech down to about 80g. A true bargain. With
    math we can build some catapilts for the war and thus make our arches go further. We can also sell our map to germant for about 26 I believe. I have a chart of what all have, unfortunately it is written and not in file form.

    What will that leave our finances in for the war?

      The best I can figure is that we will have around 65g and 5gpt after we do the trade. Also the workers can develop land to get the gpt up. Also the only place to spend money right now is in upgrades until we get monarchy, so that amount should be sufficient to upgrade 2 warriors once we take the iron city. Also we can make up the gold by selling our tm every turn for 1g to each civ that has mapmaking. currently that is 4/5 countries.

        Sounds like a plan.

              I'm going to do the techwhore now; I'll be reporting the results in #civ3dem (on Apolyton's IRC server) if anyone is interested.

                Log for 1350 BC trading session:

                Sold World Map, 117 gold, and 14 gpt to Egypt for Polytheism.
                Sold Polytheism to Korea for 1 worker, Writing, and 38 gold
                Sold Polytheism to Spain for Mathematics and 6 gold
                Sold WM to Germany for 19 gold
                Sold Mathematics to England for 1 worker and 39 gold

                So, this techwhore has gained us Polytheism, Mathematics, Writing, and 2 slaves; we lost 34 gold and 14 gpt (14 gpt is 280 gold, so we lost 314 gold total). We also gained 19 gold from a trade with Germany (they and Egypt were the two Map Making civs we hadn't traded our map to yet).

                    Keep on techwhoring ... it's our greatest assest for competing with the AI at this level.

                          Thanks, but it was aggie's plan; I just carried it out.

                          so , any future plans
                          Not really. Hopefully Japan will get enough money to make it worth selling Alphabet to them, but I don't think buying Map Making is viable right now.
