Long, boring post about possible change in domestic micro.
You can skip it, its not final.
You can skip it, its not final.
First of all, I agree with 'pinkdot' location for MIT is best for now.
As I said, most important thing is - we can improve cows 5 turns faster. And improved grass cows is 2nd best tile we aware so far.
I was back to idea preroad 'pinkdot' for some reasons after calculating worker actions and both cities tile management after T32.
So it comes to this:
T32: Settler at 99/100 in capital.
T33: Settler done with overflow. MIT founded on 'pinkdot' and steal Pigs for 3 turns. Worker start pasture Cows. Fishing done.
T36: Fish connected. Cow pastured. Capital takes Pigs back. MIT works Cow.
T37: MIT at size2. Work Cow+Pigs.
T38: MIT borders expand.
T39: Capital at size4. Warrior done in cap. Start worker.
T40: MIT at size3. Warrior done in MIT. Start worker with 12hpt (including 2hpt EXP bonus).
T41: GoldMine done. MIT obv works it.
T44: BW finished. I think its not possible to get BW on T43 even if we are lucky with contacts but we'll see.
T45: Two more workers ready for total 3 workers go for chop/mine copper/road to city#3. Gold connected to the empire (could be connected on T44 or skip this step till later and original worker start chopping on T44-45 instead).
The reason I prefer delay settler 1 turn is possibility to finish WB in 3 turns with huge overflow from Settler.
I like preroad MIT again, despite the fact it'll lose us 2 worker turns or 10h in premath chops.
We'll connect Fish 2 turns faster on T36. In original plan we could connect Fish on T37, but to do that we had to abandon Pigs or Cows for 1 turn. So, its T38 for Fish in original plan.
We cant plant MIT on T32 on 'pinkdot' cause we missed 1h or 1 worker turn and I cant find it.
This plan with Settler on T33 is flexible and not impossible with unlucky forest grow, unlike original plan.
Now, we are pretty low on workers anyway. Some hills unimproved to mines still. And if we have Horses or Copper inside culture, its not improved/connected as well, unless it on 'pinkdot' tile.
Our cities size4 and size3. We have 3 warriors as military. But we have 3 workers ready to chop into Settler/Workers/Military.
I was trying to put MIT to size3 before GoldMine finished, think its better to start work Gold at size3 not size2 here.
Some changes could be made to this plan, but I like how food, hammers and overflow lined up here.
I'll look into possibility for us to go MIT after 2nd Worker or/and WB with Hunt>AH>Fish tech path.
And obv our MIT location not final decision before we do some more scouting North. Maybe there is gems or another gold?
