Wait a second...

12 turn ETA on bronze?

I haven't been following all that closely, what other techs do we have?

I SERIOUSLY question the logic of manually building the settler. I don't have time to crunch the numbers, but were we to build something else while growing to 3 (say 2 warriors, or 1 warrior and more towards the barracks), then whip out the settler, would it not be roughly the same turnage, but with more stuffs built, and still size 2? (happiness is not an issue right now)


I also happen to believe a worker is more warranted than a settler right now. WHIP that worker ASAP, then CHOP a settler with it, followed by another worker. And let's get these tiles UPGRADED.

This is so cool. Like having a front row seat as William and Clark head off into the wilderness while congress debates the small decistions that have the greatest of consequences when magnified by the test of time.

We need BW to employ the whip.

Which comes in 12. We're talking about getting a settler/warrior combo out in 15 turns, so whipping is a valid option.

I still say a worker is more warranted, especially if we have things other than chopping he coud do. But as mentioned, other than the fishing, I don't know what else we researched.

[GeoModder]

Mining is the other thing we researched.

And I agree on the worker, but IIRC majority things otherwise.

[PLATO]

I'll put my two cents worth in...I'm in favor of a worker as well.

[UnOrthOdOx]

Let's do it proper like then.
