Hi Rhoth. I am out of town from tomorrow morning until Sunday evening. All yours.

[Jon Miller]

I actually think that our land would be good for feudalism if we were playing conquests

610ad turn played.

As per orders.

VCS Exploration discovered another empty stretch of ocean.

I set Hope to building another worker. Growth in 4, worker in 5.

Treasury at 249 gold and -5gpt. Democracy in 6.

No pics. On to Lego.

620ad turn played

....as per orders above.

Not much to add. Democracy in 5 turns.

I have asked vondrack what the little exchange between him and Cort Haus in the save game thread is all about.

630ad Turn Orders

- Worker either moves to Seabiscuit and joins or gets renamed to VW#5 and moves south to Panama Vox to join the road making team in preparation for our railroading. We need to decide and I'm currently leaning toward the latter.

- V.C.S. Discovery moves 4-7-7

- V.C.S. Exploration moves 8-8-4

- Upgrade the two galleys to caravels in Seabiscuit and Memory.

630ad Played

Per my orders. I thought it was best to use the worker to start heading toward getting the desert roaded since we may need that for railroading sooner than I had thought a while back.

The galleys were upgraded and I started moving the other caravels a bit. We'll need some good names for our new caravels next turn.

I also moved the slider back a notch. We still get democracy in the same 4 turns but have +7 gold instead of -5 gold. I also toyed with moving it up a notch but we'd lose 15gpt and I didn't think it was worth it to gain one turn on democracy.

I forgot a screenshot.

I concur regarding the slider. No probs about the pic. Not much changes.

As to names:lets stick to peaceful names for now. And - in an completely uncreative momemnt - nothing comes to mind.

Hmmm. (Beta thinking...)

I always loved the name 'Fearless', which was Honor Harrington's ship's name in the early books. (Cheap Sci Fi series but lots of fun). And how about Intrepid for the other.

[Wittlich]

Of course, we could always name the ships after the Vox leadership....

USS Beta
USS Rhothaerill
USS Jon Miller
USS Wittlich
USS Etc....

I know ... not very imaginative, but it's also not aggressive either.

[Jon Miller]

not USS though

The turn is here a lot quicker than I had intended. I'm playing it now.

GS has offered physics but we have nothing to counter with yet.

[Rhothaerill]

640ad played

Since I didn't have prior orders spelled out, here is what happened:

- GS sent physics-unaccepted. Exited out since we have not decided on the deal yet and we don't have democracy yet anyway.
- Lego sent navigation-accepted.
- 2 new caravels named V.C.S. Fearless and V.C.S. Intrepid and moved 2-1-1 toward Panama Vox and picket duty.
- V.C.S. Discovery moved 4-4-4 into the dark.
- V.C.S. Exploration moved 9-9-9 into the dark.
- VW#5 moved 1-2-4
- VW#2 moved 2-2-2
- VW#3 moved 9
- Hope WF changed to fish, coast and hill tile. It will grow, pop a worker, and go back to size 3 next turn.

650ad Orders

- Hope grows to size 4, produces worker, and drops to size 3.
- Hope WF to fish and 2 grassland tiles
- VW#2 moves 6-2-3
- VW#3 roads tile
- VW#5 roads tile
- V.C.S. Discovery moves 4-4-4
- V.C.S. Exploration moves 6-6-6 (open to moving a different way)
- V.C.S. Fearless and Intrepid move 1-1-2
- New worker from Hope renamed VW#6 and moves 6-6-3

[Jon Miller]

how do you open the save?

I only have conquests that I can find

650ad Played

Per orders. I also moved VW#1 1-2-6 to prepare for roading around Panama Vox. I moved the slider down one more notch to 50% as it still gives 2 turns to democracy. Even at 100% we couldn't bump it to one turn and I wouldn't want to anyway.

Lego sent us physics-accepted so any would-be deal with GS is now moot. I'll continue to work on them for getting future luxuries for democracy.

We now have an ocean route to our old homeland.
