Moves - Volume 4

520ad played

GoW sent chemistry-unaccepted and I added printing press and accepted the deal.

The turn was played per my orders, but I did change several things. First Renewal only get 5spt because of corruption, not six. Hope's WF stayed the same because of corruption also. I rushed the library in Panama Vox (only 24 gold) to be able to use the hill a little quicker. And the main thing was the slider was bumped to 70%

We have 341 gold with -12 gpt and democracy in 18 turns. We're starting to develop our research engine.

Hey Beta, the turn is here. I probably won't be able to play it until at least 10pm eastern time so if you want to play it go ahead. The orders haven't been verified yet, but I think they should be okay.

[Rhothaerill]

Okay I got home earlier than I thought. I'm playing the turn now.

530ad Turn Played

The turn was played per my orders. We did indeed receive chemisty, though everyone else has it but Roleplay. We will finish the university next turn and need to decide whether we're going to start our military or build a bank.

We have 329 gold with -15gpt and democracy in 17 turns.

These orders have been verified

- New Voice completes University. Start either a bank or a horseman

- Hope's culture radius expands. Verify that WF is still on fish, 2 grasslands and 1 hill.

- Worker A joins Renewal to make size 4.

- Worker #11 moves 8 and joins Renewal to make size 5. WF to mined grass, mined bonus grass, one coast and 2 mined hills (we'll lose 2 gpt from taking it off the mountain, but we'd otherwise have to use a second coast tile...this gets the marketplace finished several turns sooner).

- Worker #6 roads mountain tile

- V.C.S. Discovery moves 3 and fortifies.

Thanks Rhoth! You were home well before me. I had another community meeting tonight.

I will give some thought regarding bank or military. I guess sooner or later we are going to have to decide. After reading the AAR report on the Bobian war, I don't think we can take anything for granted - perhaps other than Lego's friendship.

Probably time to start a new thread on where we go from here with our game strategy. Will give this some thought. But right now I am too tired. Bed time.

[Rhothaerill]

Sleep well.

Yes, we will need a new game strategy to work out. We need to think about whether we want to be building a military or focusing on economy and counting on Lego to protect us. A concerted effort by any civ other than RP would break us right now, even if we get a military going soon so perhaps concentrating on our economy is the best way we can help Lego. On the other hand one of the other civs could use as a dropoff point to get to Lego. Who knows. It's something we'll need to decide how to proceed with.

I also need to work on the turn orders threads in the future planning as they have changed a little bit in recen turns. Plus I have added VW11 to Renewal for this coming turn rather than have him wait around a few turns to join Phoenix. It's a stronger move overall, but it affects a few of the turn orders.
