Urgent Business


We will finish Metallurgy this turn. Next stop: MILITARY TRADITION.

Are we going to joint-research this very vital tech with ND? How much gold should we hoard for immediate Cavalry upgrades? Should we re-deploy for possible defense against an ND backstab? (Note: a good bunch of our Riders are still south)

We will also finish our bank in I.C. this turn upon which I.C. will switch between Settlers/Musketmen

FYI, I have estimated(taking into account libaries Universities) the research for MT. It would take
2 turns 80%(~-110)
4 turns 70%(~ -80)
The last turn would probably be at 60%.

I am not sure the order of the % that works best, though starting at 80 for 2 turns will certainly work, but other combos could be better.

Also, what about the tech that GS promised, but hasn't delivered. When do they expect their money.

We need to send Metalurgy to Lego immediately, that way we get the next 100g immediately.

I say we continue researching with ND. Basically we keep the same schedule of payments etc.

Hi MZ / UnO,

GS is ready to hand you Physics when you've got the first 300, and will hand over Magnetism for Metallurgy and the other 200 whenever you're ready. TBH, we're not keen on you guys selling on Physics to ND to raise the cash quicker, as was suggested. The offer of reciprocally lowering the NTA on Chem for RP isn't tempting for us, I'm afraid. We don't mind waiting a little longer for you to raise the cash.

It may be good for us to look ahead to the Industrial Era, and consider further research projects that we could work together on. After all, at this rate, it'll be here in a fortnight!

Regards,

Cort

560 AD - Report

General

- Science slider moved to 70%. Reason: we can get the 300g for GS in one turn thanks to the 90g that ND will send us plus the 100g Lego will send us for Metallurgy. This will give us approximately 310g for next turn.


Diplomacy

- ND sends 90g + WM. We send Metallurgy + WM
- We send Metallurgy to Lego

City Builds

- Zayrut changed to Temple (needs the culture, still 21 turns away)


Workers

- Bruce Lee, Skulgaria mine at Yellowkinfe SW-SW
- Hall, Oats chop forest at Skulgaria NW
- Cattle Rancher moves to Alert W
- Nader moves to Alert W-SW
- Hill moves to Yellowknife N-NE
- Wilderness mines at Irongard S
- Trip, Tripprentice move to Alert SE
- Cookie Monster chops forest at Macao SE-SE
- Dungeon, Republic 2 road at Trafalgar S-SE
