Pre-Poll: Seti's Assignment

[Kloreep]

The title says it all.

Hoovers will be fairly complete when we get Electronics; there are no other wonders coming up. So it's basically between the palace and an army.

hi ,

, ......

we need some armies , .....

have a nice day

[Vlad Antlerkov]

Get the palace move over with. We're doing well enough on both fronts that an army might not be needed.

[roadcage]

Yes, we need Armies, but the best way to get LOTS of Armies is to enable Ferropolis's Iron Works by moving the Palace to Macross City. We will not be able to do this till 1315 due to current palace shield holder in TFC, but that only makes one turn worth of elites (1310) not Leaderable. And realistically, we don't have that many elites to be really worried.

So my suggestion is:
1305
nothing

tweenturns
Atomic Theory completes
celebrate!
pick Electronics to study

1310
(cash) rush Factory in Macross City
set slider at 0% sci

tweenturns
ToE completes at G-Town
celebrate!
pick Radio then Steel to study


1315
Trade for Refinery
Trade for Ivory
Trade for Steel (if avail but doubtful)
Switch TFC from Palace to Hoovers
(Leader) rush Palace in Macross City
Adjust slider to 4 turn the current study
Cash rush corruption fighting stuff on Uber

This will put IW at Ferropolis
and Hoovers at TFC in 1345
Ferropolis should be able to do a factory in 3
Then Hospital in 2
Then adback pop
-edit- Military Academy in 4
and start cranking out Armies.

Naturally, our remaining cities will need to make units to fill these shells.

I agree with roadcage.

[CiverDan]

I agree with roadcage also. we only lose one one turn where we cannot get a leader. The only thing is that some cities (like those one uber Isle) will be become more corrupt until courthouses are built, but we need Ferropolis to have minimal corruption to maximize the value of the Iron Works and we need to have better spacing between our Palace and FP.

SETI project!! It's perfect!!

just kidding

[Shiber]

/me hops on the bandwagon and agrees with Roadcage as well.

[Kuciwalker]

Let's build... BARRACKS!

[Hot Mustard]

I would like to humbly suggest that we build the Intelligence Agency in my hometown of Dijon.


Just kidding!

I also love roadcage's plan, especially since it will put our capital in a city of Old France, complete Iron Works in a city of Old France, and dramatically reduce corruption in Old France - not that I have any bias.

Your rp bias is showing. Ferropolis is a newbuild city not in any way associated with Old France. But having said that, if the numbers suggested that we place the Palace in Ravenna, or Heidelberg, or wherever, I would not hesitate to plan the campaign to secure the buildsite.

But the numbers keep pointing to Macross City, if for no other reason than Ferropolis is nearby.

By "Old France" I merely mean that the cities in question (Macross City, Ferropolis) are in the Old France region, not that they were once French cities. And while I may be biased, this plan will aid the region of Old France greatly by reducing the corruption that currently is plaguing it, which is to the benefit of all Apolyton.

Why can't we do the trades for Refining & Steel (if someone has it) next turn, right before ToE is completed. THis should net us a more valueble trade, as the AI places (IMHO) a higher value on a tech that is coupled with a Wonder AND the wonder hasn't been built yet.

If anyone is worried about them possibly using a GL to build it, I have seen several cases where a tie has gone to the hooman and not the AI.

Hmm... I'm leaning towards palace now.

I'm just worried that will help support for a war against Alex. Give Greece a chance!

He'd have to be transported to Uber Island for that.

IIRC, all ties go to the human because of the order of turnplay and builds.

hi ,

, we would need like about four armies , that should do it , ....

we should wait to fill a couple up until we have modern armor and fill it up with only elite units , a couple others with two or three elite mech. infantry , we can always add more units when needed

have a nice day
