Nathan, I don't think it will, we would have had enough coastal tiles for Bolderberg anyway. But what we gain here can either mean more land tiles and thus shields for Bolderberg, or more land to the desert city above EotS.

Are you taking into account cascade effects? If Bolderberg can shift laborers to tiles that would otherwise go to #8, other cities can shift to tiles Bolderberg would have used, and still other cities can shift to tiles those cities would have used. So it would take an analysis through the entire southern end of our civ to figure out whether there were already enough tiles to go around and, if not, whether this move changes the situation. In any case, using the whale should benefit our civ's overall production and food-generating capacity.

Well, the South we don't need tiles as badly as the desert to the North of EotS needs, that was why I was cascading the tiles towards there. Bolderberg will be able to use 12 tiles just by counting the tiles other cities can't use, and the same situation exists on the coastal site to the South East of it. They can act as buffers, shifting tiles into the sea once other cities grow.

It's a pity we can't cram in an extra city, but it would be too small, it probably won't ever reach size 6. That's too few for the added corruption.

I tried using what they call a 'mesh warp' in photopaint, but I couldn't get it precise enough to tell much, the grid was limited to 10 by 10, and was fixed, where it should have been possible to bend it around the edge of the power graph between 2 civs. Maybe someone with photoshop (so Adobe instead of Corel) has a better shot at it, otherwise I'm going to recreate the score graph with Excell from the individual scores in the turns. It will take a lot longer to gather all info, but it should lead to the same results... Maybe tomorrow

HBR: Are we certain RP knows it already? If not, we maybe can trade it away after getting it from Vox. We could only ask an extremely low price, but all gold coins are welcome

Who is the GS contact for GoW?

We now have contact with your civ and would like to know if you have anything you would like to trade for Horseback Riding?

I'll answer him with a note saying I posted it on our forum and that we will get back to him.

[DeepO]

Don't know, Alva... it wasn't you, was it?
