Ah, there's nothing really like cleaning pollution. It's so great...
I guess my ideal turn would be to have to clean up pollution off 10 mountain tiles without roads on an isolated island with a single captured worker before Replaceable Parts and in Anarchy.

Ooooh I'm getting really hot now!

Build road definitely has too many pluses to ignore.

- Increase commerce output.
- Cut movement costs on that square to 1/3 of a movement point. Also means quicker deployment of more workers to get irrigation and mining tasks done quicker as well.
- Connect strategic/luxury resources to your cities, so as to be able to use them.
- Foundation for railroads, which then in turn increase food in irrigated squares and shields in mined squares.

So my vote definitely goes to roads.

I agree with everyone roads are most useful, however I still say fortresses are a lot more fun.

You put roads on pretty much EVERY SINGLE tile you control. Its a mindless chore, best left to a simple AI routine.

You put fortresses on key points that you pick out for strategic purposes. Granted, they don't get a lot of use in the game because the AI is loathe to attack, but still...

I'll take a few strategic choices over a mindless chore as more fun any day!

edit: Now that I think about it, roads are actually fun early when you are just connecting things, and thus there is still some thinking to it. But after it gets to the web the entire landscape stage... bleh!

definatly the most enjoyable action is selling captured enemy workers to other civs in exchange for goods, technology, and treaties!

roads are cool too though

I just love moving them 'up'. moving them 'left' is pretty good too, and 'right' ain't bad either. moving them 'down' though, ugh . I hate moving them 'down'
