Minister of Imperial Expansion Campaign Thread

[Kuciwalker]

I call on the UFC (the Coalition) to support me in the upcoming election. I won't build tons of stupid jungle cities like Jonny.

I would also like to call attention to Jonny's presumptiousness in posting "official" polls about IE topics. This is dangerous to democracy.

I support building a city in the area our warrior just uncovered

Are you aware that this city will be at least 1/2 or even 2/3 corrupt and thus useless?

agreed. unless we do a palace jump fairly soon (i'm against palace jumping) that city won't be useful for quite a while.

after we conquer france we'll expand more rapidly

[Kuciwalker]

It's the closest viable city position, with the possible exception of the river mouth in the jungle NW of us. It's a choice between the jungle and corruption.

[Harovan]

No.

[Kuciwalker]

Will you please explain why you say no, and perhaps offer an alternative?

[Harovan]

I did, many times. Ok, Again.

We have only 8 good grassland tiles around our capital. They are our asset. They could be shared between 2 cities, Apolyton, and a new to built city 4 tiles northwest of Apolyton. The cities will overlap, but this does not matter. The corruption will be very low. We need 2 productive cities now, later will be too late. And Apolyton can't remain the capital anyway, because it has a too bad location. A capital should be surrounded by cities to use the benefits of lower corruption with as many as possible cities.

Right. I'm just trying to make productive cities (which is, actually, not my job), that can build you the units to conquer France, before they build pikemen and musketeers.

exactly. there is no way apolyton can remain our capital, because it's no where near what the center of our empire (or where it will be, rather)

i'm agaisnt it in principle, but we need to move our palace.

and i know, rather than building it like we SHOULD, you people will vote to palace jump.

After reading this post it is obvious that incumbant party(DIA) is too incompetent to run such an important office this early in the game. I recommend everyone to vote for the Coalition candidate. Skywalker will consult the wisest of Apolytonians and the masses before settling cities. Skywalker understands the importance of settling in productive sites so we can create a large army to conquer France as soon as possible.

So why can't he tell us that himself?

Skwalker pushed and supported everything I did, so if you support him then you are supporting me.

If Jonny is elected, we will both work hard to make sure we are placing our cities in the most productive area possible.

70 some % of the people polled about my actions agreed with them or understood them. I feel I have done a good job, and I totally give 100% of my support to Jonny. He ran the first time and deserves a go at it. I think he will do a darn good job . He is already polling the people and getting advice, and thats key. With all our heads we cannot fail, but when we listen to just a few, as skywalker will most certainly do, we a re doomed.

Vote for Jonny people!!! He will listen to everyone and NOT just those who share his political feelings.
