Turn's in but I'm unable to play so someone else will have to do it.

Main things that need to be done:
- move worker near Beijing to that coastal plains forest tile to southwest from Beijing (to chop) it should be able to get there this turn (if he isn't consider other forest tile). The rationale behind moving it there is that for the second chop it will be moving back north from where it'll be easier to run to 4th city location.
- move axe in the north forest towards Xian (just make him take the quickest path)
- move the warrior out of Xian and onto the hill north of the Iron mine (he will replace Axe on the patrol duty
- move the worker near Tassagrad to southeast and start on road
- move the axe in Tassagrad on the same tile worker is (escort)
- move the scout in north first towards the sea (to uncover any along-the-coast border of Bananas) and then towards the proposed AC-Banana road ending spot
- move the scout in south along the coast and up on that hill he's near

okay i've followed your instructions:

good news:
i found the 3rd banana city
and in the new turn tassagrad got infected with judaism.

[binTravkin]

Those are indeed good news!

I guess there's not much more to do/decide this turn, is there?

If there isn't we could forward it maybe, so it gets to Vox before weekend

EDIT: have you hit endturn yet?
If not change our mine worker at Beijing to the 0-4-0 as PJay proposed.

here is the overview of banana and our lands

[binTravkin]

Ooh, you have, well nevermind then, 1 hammer isn't a big deal

[-SafaN-]

sorry i thought there was nothing else

btw bejing is building a settler so 0-4-0 or 1-3-0 doesn make a difference, does it.

[binTravkin]

It does because of forge bonus (in one case it's rounded up).
No worries, it's my fault anyway, I forgot it while listing.

I'll need to make and maintain a list of mistakes, so I remember each time to check twice

So far it's
- not getting Monotheism 1 turn earlier (late diplomacy)
- not getting Forge at Xian 1 turn earlier
- 1 less hammer in Beijing




You can send the turn on (if you haven't already) then.


With this rate of religion spread, we'll be able to convert sooner than expected

let's hope Beijing gets judaism soon too

i'll check when and how we can get Great Prophet for the Temple of Solomon, was it discussed already?

[binTravkin]

It wasn't but there's not much to discuss - we've got a steady flow of GPPs (+6/turn) now with merchant, prophet and engineer points at equal quantity.

In total percentage prophets should be little above as they started first

[Mart]

we kinda need only as many prophets as we have to build shrines. I would prefer other GPs thereafter

[binTravkin]

I checked the chances, they're now 37/37/25 for GP/GE/GM respectively.
They'll move closer to 33/33/33 later though.

Our GPP bar is 20/200 full, which is we need 30 more turns to fill it 180/6 = 30.


This turn GS took a score dip by some 10-12 points. Could it be caused by whipping?
Also, GS power is constantly growing, so I guess, even while focusing on food and GNP in production they're pumping out units not investing in infra which is good for us.

[PJayTycy]

Nice

Seems like my crystal ball didn't lie about the banana third city


I'll look in the turn and see about the scores/power/...

[PJayTycy]

Foreign intelligence :

Banana : +12 points
+6 : discovered masonry (114 beakers in 5 turns)
+6 : population growth : third city grew from 1 to 2 (22 food in 10 turns)

Mercs : +6 points
+6 : population growth : third city grew from 1 to 2 (22 food in 11 turns)

Horde : +6 points
+6 : population growth : capital grew from 3 to 4 (whipping grow back)




GS' score didn't change this turn, bt, the dip you see in the score graph is from their 2-pop whip last turn. I have no idea what they whipped though



power graphs will be for later, I don't have enough time for them right now.

[binTravkin]

They likely whipped a library, at least that's the most reasonable thing I can see them building and take 2 pop.
