Senate Bill: Shall Seti be used to relocate the Palace to Macross City?

[Jonny]

I say yes. It will be very beneficial to move the palace there.

After the move, we can rush police stations/courthouses in the Central Apolyton/Uber Isle regions, to lower the increased corruption there.

[Kloreep]

I voted no. I object to the specific city (it sets us up for a war with Greece, which I do not support now). But a move a little further south (perhaps Here It Is) would be okay with me, so long as such a move had some actual benefit for corruption.

[roadcage]

Kloreep, the selection of Macross City has NOTHING to do with a war with Greece. It has EVERYTHING to do with making the IronWorks in Ferropolis worth building.

Let me assure you, that if an Iron tile were to magically appear within the radius of Ghengistown, or a Coal tile were to magically appear within the radius of Antioch, no one would be hot to move the Palace to enable an IW, because The Forbidden City already makes both of these cities productive.

The purpose of the Macross City Palace move is to create that mountain of shields for the good of Apolyton. For all I care, the peace nuts can use that mountain to build a space ship from a single city. Or the warmongers can use that mountain to conquer all of Abananaba. It really doesn't matter to me.

I have played many a game and this is the absolute first time I have seen an IW site with a mix of hills and grass that can support a full 20 pop. Ferropolis truly is special. Please let it realise its potential.

Roadcage, as always, you have a great point....

[joncnunn]

Discussion: Yes. Roadcage suggested it in the Pre-Poll for what shall we do with Seti. The next several posts were all in favor. No one brought up an alternative use on that thread (at least prior to this poll starting.)

As for polls on where to move the palace, Senate Bills require a Yes / No vote and a bill that didn't include the GL would require an additional poll.

Was there even a poll deciding where to move the Palace in the first place? Or even a discussion?

I've been gone a little while, so please excuse my ignorance on this....

[joncnunn]

Keeping the GL would deny us the oppertunity of getting additional GLs. We've already had 2 Great Leaders from this war alone and still have several Elites. Saving him could easily cost us another 2 GLs from this war. (And an additional one should we fight a war with Tanks in the late industrial era.)

There is nothing worth burning a GL over eccept the palace move. The military academy must be built prior to the end of next term and Wall Street must be finished as well. If we don use him soon, we might as well wait for the UN as that is the next one saving a GL for.

EXCUSE ME, but I had said at least 10 hours before the Bill was posted this:

Quoted from this post
Because the consensus seems to be to use Seti for the Palace move, we have 2 Game turns to fully deside as to were we want to move the Palace to.

Let's get the Poll started (3 days remember) and then play 2 turns. As the War turns takes a lot longer, that will get ut to the point of the debate for where we want the Palace to be at. THis will also allow us to get a few things Rush built the turn that we actually use Seti.

We need to look at all options of where we want to move the Palace. Do we want more of the Southern Contenant? Or is most of the North good enough for us? Where we plan to expand in the future, will really ultimatly deside were we move the Palace.

So don't say that there were not other possible plans presented, at least before the Senate Bill was posted.

[joncnunn]

A bill that just says use him for a Palace without naming any city is way to open ended.

I'd vote abstain on such a mition, because there's some cities I'd support and others I wouldn't.

In fact there's more cities I'd oppose (Every FP centric city, Uber Island, those exteremely close to the existing Palace.)

[GhengisFarb™]

I would say build an Army with this guy, we need several to trigger the Pentagon option.

[Panag]

hi ,



as GF mentioned we should build an army , we dont even need to fill it up , .....

have a nice day

[joncnunn]

Existing Calvary would be the units to fill armies with. Any infentry placed in them wouldn't be able to be upgraded to MI with Computers.

[joncnunn]

As a reminder, this poll closes in 24 hours + a few minutes from now.

I do that all the time, usually by the time I've hit the Industrial Age I've got 6-8 empty armies sitting around.

Existing cavalry can be used to generate more GL's. The first units to go into the army should be the ones that have already generated a GL and therefore cannot do so again.

[roadcage]

If we do not 'enable' Ferropolis and it's IW, we will be lucky to have any Army shells available before Tanks.

It is unbelievable that the rp junkies have managed to sink this bill.
