Summary:
We started slow, due to ISP errors on my end. After much discussion, New Asgard was founded 3900, and started a new scout.

Our first scout popped an empty hut, but our second scout popped a settler!

Boo-Ya! The joys of having expansionist. That will really speed up the growth of our empire...or at the very least allow us to almost keep pace city-wise with the AI civs.

[Rhothaerill]

BTW, based on the lack of being able to get to the north area for awhile, and the fact that there is a barb to the south, I'd recommend building a warrior after this next scout. Three ought to be enough to sniff out the enemy.

[BigFree]

Heck, we may be on an Island; two scouts are more than enough, build some troops to protect against those barbs and to promote happiness in our cities.

[ormuzd]

I guess we will loose our scout and there will be only one. But I think one may be enough. Let's concentrate on warriors and REX.

I have a save. Keep in mind it's not the official, presidential save, but it should be the same, and you can use it for the time being...

The location of the second settler looks good. its close enough to the coast and can best utalize them .

[Panag]

hi ,

he could move one , to get the wheat within later city range , .....

we should not have moved our capital away from the spanish , it would have been nice to take that fish later on , .......


have a nice day

[CivGeneral]

By closer examination, we can move that settler closer to the cattle and mine it.

hi ,

actually the best would be to put it on top of the plains ( one move , keypad number 4 ) , this way it would get both a grain and the cattle , .....

some long term investment , .....

have a nice day

I think New Asgard's production should be immediately switched to a warrior for some protection. We can still consider a third scout after seeing what the surviving scout finds in the southwest.

I would favor moving the settler 8-8 or 8-8-8 and founding near New Asgard. Less distance so less corruption. 8-8 can work the cattle immediately, plus a bonus grass once Asgard's radius expands; the downside is not being able to share the wheat tile, and it'll take a while to get the cattle irrigated (mining won't have any effect in despotism). 8-8-8 can share the wheat and two bonus grass, but will have to expand culture borders to get the cattle, which is pretty much impossible since we need to be building warriors, settlers, and workers right now, not expensive 60-shield temples.
