Turn 4: 3880

[N35t0r]

To do:

Pop the hut, end turn.

When the save get's here, I'll work on how much we're producing and maybe set up a sim...

[Lacero]

fingers crossed for a good tech from the hut everyone

[PJayTycy]

Don't forget to save before hitting end turn. I don't know how the random generator in civ4 works, but we might get different pop results on our pc's.

[N35t0r]

No, what I mean is that I'll use the save to make an exact copy in the WorldBuilder for us to use to test strategies out... I won't touch the save, since it's against the rules for us to open it twice and do different things in each one.

okay, i did the turn:

popped the hut, its a tech, but not the best one we could get :

We are now first in score, so others will have to think about what we did

here's the end-turn

will send the save on directly

For next turn theres not much to decide, I'd rather not follow coast since that means less pophuts. Also i normally work in a circling way around the capital.

With the tech mayb a scout is within the possibilities?

6 turns to the wheel
10 turns to worker

i also noticed there is a team with 12 bnp (we have 10)

what team did found their capital last?

[Lacero]

sorry whats bnp?

I prefer following the coast (or at least keeping it in sight) so we know how big our land mass is. I realise my suggestions have not been especially useful so far so don't worry about ignoring me

[ForesterSOF]

Coast is safe but we have to explore where the people will be to get stuff and grow.

[PJayTycy]

Hunting is a good tech, I like scouts

screenshot of our exploration so far:


The arrows show what I consider the most usefull directions for exploring.
Right side : moving our warrior.
Left side : culture borders will expand in 3 turns, so we'll have more info there.


Probably we should start building a scout after our worker is complete to do more exploring before building a second city.

[N35t0r]

Yeah, I say we move 6 then 9. And building a scout after the worker is definitely a good idea.

[ForesterSOF]

I would scout NW of city.

NE of scount I think I see the end of a cost inlet.

And I agree the Hunting Tech should help.

[SebP]

my preference: 6-9 first, then maybe circle, or just northeast. build a scout after the worker for the nortwestern direction

[N35t0r]

Yeah, the scout should head NW, while the warrior continues eastish...

Hi everyone,
It is nice to see the game going.
My laptop got hurt by playing civ4 - overheating graphics chip. So I do not have the game installed any more, but I can participate as observer. I have some experience from a few games.
