Paris: domestic issues

[jdjdjd]

Ok, that makes sense. Thanks.

[Shiber]

I suggest that the laborer in Here It Is (formerly known as Paris) switches to working either the tile N or NE of Paris. It produces one less shield (doesn't matter though, we lose it to waste anyway) but it produces an additional commerce (which we won't lose to corruption).

[Reddawg]

The laborer idea isn't bad. But it is a french laborer, right? So if it joins the town it will add french population, correct? is it worth it? what will the elitists say of putting french citizens back in control of the city and allowing them to grow? i think they want them kept as slave laborer...

at the same time i think its best to avoid letting the city fall to 1 pop. if possible.

[Shiber]

No, I meant the laboring citizen in the city. If I wanted to refer to the worker I would have referred to him as a worker, not a laborer.
What do you think of my suggestion then? We'd gain one additional commerce per turn.

[jdjdjd]

Shiber, Reddawg was responding to my note, which is why he was talking about a laborer joining the town.

As for your idea, I thought we were going to work N or NNE tile, they produce 1 shield, 2 gold and 2 food. That was what I had suggested to GK. What square is being worked?

I will have to look at the latest save when I get home.

[Shiber]

Oh. I thought he was talking to me because his post appeared below mine and he didn't quote a different post. Sorry reddawg!
jdjdjd: we are currently working the tile SE of Paris (2g, 2f, 1c).

[jdjdjd]

Thanks.

They should all produce the same then.

[MrWhereItsAt]

Paris never bloody went out of resistance, so it has since starved to a pop of 1. No resisters now though.

[jdjdjd]

Those bastards!! I'll will rule this city with an iron fist in retaliation...oh wait, I guess starving to death is good enough.

[Shiber]

Yeah, we sure starved them resistors to death.

[jdjdjd]

I'm going to post my orders here for next chat, and email GK with the link...discussion is here., next is orders

Paris:
I have checked and the SE tile gives us 2 food, 2 sheilds, 1 gold, while N & NE tiles give 2 food, 2 gold, 1 sheild. When you change it the temple still completes in 26 turns. We get pop increase in nine turns. so...might as well take the extra gold.

Marseilles:

one worker is resisting. we need garrison in the city to quell. When resistance ends, if worker unhappy, make him a taxman. If he is content, set him to work E mine tile. It gives 2 of each, better than the other improved tiles.

ask that slave labor captured clear some more jungle, unless more pressing work is necessary.

Unless the plan is build spearman here, switch to temple. it needs 30 turns, which I guess is the cap. They increase pop in 10 turns...perfect, we should be able to pop rush it as well to help avoid flip.

Orders for Ile de Rose

Paris 210 BC
switch worker to work NE or N tile.

Maintain until pop increases in 9 turns, then we should be able to pop rush temple, temple will need 17 turns.

Marseilles 210 BC
No change. We need some one to garrison city and quell one resistor. Switch to temple, assuming SMC is Ok with that, else to whatever he wants.

190 BC or any turn where the resistance ends, if worker is content, set him to work East mine tile. If worker is unhappy, set him to taxman.

Maintain this for 9 more turns after 190 BC, when pop increases and we can pop rush temple.

What hapened to my posts? They're all missing some lines?!

EDIT:

Hey now, they're back!?

[Shiber]

You've been using those mushrooms again.

[jdjdjd]

I can't help, the little pink elephants tell me to take them.
