  • Legoland Connection: Discussion

    Because some have doubted that the land we have seen is likely Legoland, I'll post the following image which shows the minimap Legoland originally sent us overlayed with our current minimap. The location on the far west of our vision in the water is the location where we have spoted coastal waters on the far side of the sea.



    It would appear that Legoland may be a good bit closer to us than we would have originally suspected.

    This raises the possibility that we can settle part of their continent if we get our own lands covered and they are slow enough to leave land open for us to do so (and we don't worry about pissing them off in the process ).

    Please discuss.

    Perhaps we could also enlist them as allies against the northern civs.

      Call me crazy, but I'm starting to wonder if we will get our lands settled, much less someone elses.

        Yay! Finally, my job has meaning!

        I would strongly advocate the settling of one, and no more than one, coastal city on the Lego continent. I would probably ask them permission and negotiate the location, though.

          No. Settle it as soon as possible, even by skipping one of our homeland cities for a bit. Get as many cities over there as possible. They are our biggest threat. Also gives us a reserve against GoW. The less land Lego has the better off all of us will be. Also, this gives us a base from which to kill the SOB's from. Lego will not attack us as they are peace loving hippies.

            I think the legoland continent (I hereby name it Blockana in the spanish language) shouldnt be such a concern for settlement.

            right now, we need beef in our own lands, not a city Lego can capture easily. I say we keep rushing to settle this continent

              I don't beleive Lego would attempt to capture one city we place on their continent. I'm sure we could convince them it would be mutually beneficial.

              It also gives us a nice and secret base, an ace up our sleeve for any naval conflict in the near future, and cements the importance of friendly Lego-Spain relations.

              I agree with GK on this.

                  I concur. A base on an other continent is vital to build our naval strength. We will have far too few coastal cities IMO, especially the east.

                    Why don't we simply refer to Legoland as the "New World"?

                    Or possibly the "Spanish Main"?
