  • Turn 141, 250AD

    * General Info
    - 1217 gold, +161 (at start of turn)

    * Military
    -

    * Economy

    (I hope I'm not too late with this)
    - Dissidentville - Shift bonus grassland and mountain laborers to regular grasslands.
    - Santa Ana - Shift regular grassland laborer to work the bonus grassland Dissidentville just vacated.
    - ***Monsoon - Move non-incense hill and mined grassland laborers to coast. We'll probably reverse this move next turn.
    - ***Whirlwind - Move incense desert laborer to hill vacated by Monsoon, saving a turn on our WC there. We'll probably reverse this next turn.
    - O.G. - Change production to a horseman. It only takes one turn longer than a WC and avoids wasting as many shields.
    - Hurricane - Move a non-iron mountain laborer and a non-fur plains laborer near Sandstorm to coast, yielding 15 shields per turn for horsemen.
    - Sandstorm - Move a desert laborer to the plains Hurricane vacated.


    * Diplomacy
    -

    * Additional info/Big issues.
    - What do we want to do with Elipolis? Things aren't looking great for us to get a useful FP on Bob in the near future, meaning that moving our FP to Elipolis could be quite valuable (and in which case we probably want to add workers in the not-too-distant future to boost its production rate). My current feeling is that we're probably better off prioritizing a FP move there, but the issue is worth considering. - Nathan
    - Other big issue. How are we going to pay the gold for the upgrades? Can we out build our gold?
    - The situation in the South. GoW is a long while with the save. Prepare for something when we get the turn again.

    I'd say we need a courthouse in Elipolis, no?

    As for military matters, we have to wait and see what GoW & ND did.

      I agree with laying the groundwork to move the FP to elipolis. What would the estimate on getting the FP up there, assuming a large pop (I don't have a simulation)

      As Leo was built last turn, I would imagine that the second rider wave is being sent out now, but I would estimate it taking perhaps 6 turns to reach Toledo. Though if ND really trusted them, it might take only 4 turns to get to Pamplona.

      What is ND waiting for? Are they building a catapult army to assault pamplona?

      Just looking at the map, but if I were ND and Gow, I would build a road around alamo. That way you could deposit your army on the forest, Pamplona-1 (consisting of slowmovers and cats) or the mountain Pamplona-2 (if using no cats). Alamo allows them to march nearly to the door of pamplona before being seen. Is there any way we could block that mountain, even with just one pike?

        Game sent to RP... we need intel.
        The greatest delight for man is to inflict defeat on his enemies, to drive them before him, to see those dear to them with their faces bathed in tears, to bestride their horses, to crush in his arms their daughters and wives.

              We really need more than just info from them- we need to plan ahead, there is that mountain tile some of RP's pikes could seize, giving us a better control over the terrain, and denying the enemy an important staging point.

              I did sent a PM to Arny earlier, but alas...

                I agree. I think we need pikes up on especiallly the mountain adjacent to Pamplona.


                Is there any reason why we don't have a representative in the chats anymore? any negativity out of their camp? Is there something afoot, double cross against us or ND?

                    Some of you are getting GS saves for the first time... isn't that exciting?

                    Fried, I'm afraid you're not on my list yet. I forgot to add you when you posted your address and I can't find it now, and I have to go out soon. Post here and someone else who got the save will forward it to you.

                            Nothing unusual this turn, from a cursory glance.

                            No map update from RP, but probably nothing to update.

                            I would feel more comfortable if the pike near pamplona moved to the mountain P2, but thats just me.

                            boring turn, methinks.

                              I have no problem with getting a few more pikes up on the mtns by Pamp, so we cover it better. Do we have the pikes to spare, though?
