Golden Age Builds

[Hot_Enamel]

What are our priorities for infastructure during our GA ?

I'd certainly like to slip in a temple or marketplace in "The Hill".

We are never going dominate in science...should we even bother with libraries ?

What else ?

Interesting point there.

I would never have thought of foregoing ALL tech buildings...with 40 turning, it may even be possible to trade a tech or two in the future with 0 science!

However, will we have enough to trade for the techs?

I'ld like to see a market and temple in each city, aqueducts where needed. We should be getting ready to abandon the camps shortly after the end of the GA, so should be growing the permanent city sites.

Camps should build settlers and workers towards the end of the GA in preperation of that. We will need the settlers to claim our own land, and we always need workers.

Ghengis promised to show me a non-GA 30 shield-per-turn city.

I have yet to see it. Where's my city.

I would prioritize as follows:

- Aqueducts in a few large non-river cities
- Marketplaces

I think MP demo games reduce the importance of fast techs since you always agree with other people on research. We can still be on the edge with skillful diplomacy and tech trades.

We have it pining away AVOIDING all shields at the moment.

But not for long... just until we get invention

[Jon Shafer]

You realize that Leo's Workshop is a lot more expensive than the GL, and it will take you another 20 turns at full speed to finish it once you get Invention, right?

Not that I mentioned anything.

[Master Zen]

That's what GL's are for Trip

[Jon Shafer]

You guys are worse than I feared.

[UnOrthOdOx]

Well,

Lego is not supposed to build it according to our deal, RP will have other problems soon enough, Vox ...

GS is a potential problem, ND is a potential problem. Assuming we are first, we just need to be careful of who we sell to, or get a do not build clause in return.

and Ghengis was booted out of office and had his infrastructure build plan demolished so I will have to show you that city in another PBEM game. Maybe the GoW PBEM game #2 assuming it ever gets around to my turn again............

Is UnOrthO still sitting on that game?

My build choices are Temples and Marketplaces in choice cities.

[UnOrthOdOx]

I THOUGHT I sent it to HE....I certainly PLAYED it.

will send again tonight.

Oh, and maybe if the wise and powerful Ghengis had WRITTEN his glorious build and infrastructure plan DOWN somewhere easily available, it would have been followed

It WAS written down, and illustrated with pretty pictures for those who can't read well.

Note that inability to spell correctly is a perfectly natural condition.

Play the turn you hippies, I want to see Togas' reaction.

Back to this interesting topic. Who here wants to vote to cancell the Iron trade with ND for a few turns?

The twenty turn limit of the original deal is up. ND can cancel at anytime. Let them so we can build more 20 shield horsemen to up grade to Riders when we are ready. We could also build some MI at 10 shield a piece warriors to upgrade. Remember, money is easier to come by than shields!
