  • Barcelona's next building

    Barcelona will complete his spearman in one turn (1450 BC) and start to build another item.

    My suggestion is the following :

    Since the growth of Barcelona is weak (pop 3 in 16 turns), she cannot become very productive for a while. She cannot be of a big relief for the defense, since she is very far from the front, and as hasn't any barracks, its units will not be very strong. If she begins constructing another spearman, that will take 10 turns and this will be a regular spearman.

    It's normal that Madrid produces military units more quickly and of more, veterans as soon as she will possess the barracks.

    Our two borders cities, Santiago and Saragossa, are a lot more close to the capital of Neu Dem than of the ours. In a not very far future, they could be the targets of cultural attacks of our foes.

    This is the reason, I propose that Barcelona produces a temple as soon as the current spearman will be finished. This temple will increase our cultural production (that is currently roughly the same that for the others teams), and that will contribute to prevent Neu Dem to assimilate our cities.

    Barcelona has a good potential in front of she. She is very near of our capital and she will have very few corruption. But it will be necessary to do it to grow as soon as possible with the assistance of the worker Arnelos, that will begin to bring fresh water in about 17 turns, after to have cut the forrest for Madrid, then irrigated and roaded its current tile.

    A time the temple constructs, his new improvement could be a library (or maybe a galley, if we had Map Maping at this moment).

    I await gladly your commentaries.

    Your position is reasonable and terribly well explained. I cannot see anything wrong in what you say. I support your decision, governor

          Culturally, we are lagging. And I'm all for more culture, but Barcelona is nowheres near the location of any possible cultural (or military) attack. Have you considered a granary to speed growth? and maybe how long that would take?

          [edit]: its just a suggestion though. Barcelona will need that temple to grow unimpeded by civil unrest, and the culture can only help us, and temples go up much faster for us.

              Yes, but I think it's not worth right now. Barcelona should first contribute to our defense (by cultural means).

              Roughly said, a granary would be built in about 25 turns from now and its effects would not take a real effect until all the plain tiles become irrigated. I'd say, temple first, library, granary or galley later.

              But I'll study it closer with the help of the E_T's spreadsheet...

                Señor Davout is right. Temples are cheap for us, plus the culture they produce helps not only to expand the borders of the city that builds the temple, but also to enhance out global culture.
