Actually, just to clarify, it's my understanding that the AI knows everything about the map -- cities, roads, units -- everything. The AI has been programmed, however, to A) Pay for maps, and B) to not settle anywhere that it hasn't "seen" so that the advantage would only be military.

hi ,

nope , the AI knows the map as you see in the editor , ... with or without the resources is unsure , but bet your money on yes , ....

it was talked about a while ago , the AI could see only the roads that where given to it , by selling the map , ...

, a clear answer would be great here , ...

have a nice day

We'll go through with this plan next turn BEFORE moving our ships.

THIS turn before ending or next turn before moving?

Actually, the AI knows the GEOGRAPHICAL and CULTURAL map only. Basically, if you want to know exactly what the AI knows, edit fogofwar.pcx so that it is all purple/pink/whatever that color is and open a save game. The shroud is just a graphic on top of the map.

I think he supports my proposal (next turn, before we start moving the empty galley and reveal a portion of Uber Isle).

[Apocalypse]

I am fine with this proposal, as long as it doesn't give away Uber.

[BigFurryMonster]

Just remember that the Settler will expire its movement points moving onto a Galley.

[Shiber]

Next turn we'll move one galley to tile C (after selling the maps of course, because that galley will be able to actually see the coast line of Uber Isle from tile C) and move the other into Apolytonia to grab the settler and then back to tile A, or move the settler out of Apolytonia and into tile A to board the galley (yes, it's possible). Things should be okay then (we'll have a settler with a movement point for phase two: the settler hop).
