Hey, I like your calculations! 
Thanks for laying out our options. Here's some quick feedback!
- I had not thought about Konig at all, nice idea!
- Math: Jamestown and Omdu have epics that increase their raw GPP production a bit.
- I don't think that we want to generate a GP in Jamestown. During the GA we already want to make most out of our HE and pump out units (I think)
- Agi has indeed a nice food surplus and can run many specs, but I'm wondering if we want to stay in Pacifism for more than 5/6 turns and thus get more than 1 GP out of our capital. Switching to Bureaucracy and working its GA-boosted tiles does not sound terrible either
Hmm.. Here is 1 scenario that could make sense and should be doable:
EOT149: Omdu reaches 300 GPP (Merchant) for 2nd GA
EOT151: Agincourt reaches 400 GPP (Scientist) for Academy or bulb(Edu?)
EOT160-165: Omdu reaches 500 GPP (Scientist) for 2nd GA
During the 2nd GA: Cannae reaches 600 GPP (Scientist) [i]for bulb(PP?)/i]
Later in the game if still alive: Omdu reaches 700 GPP
The thing is that keeping GPPs in reserve in both König and Cannae does not sound too efficient and if we pump a 2nd GP out of Agincourt it will also be really hard for those cities to ever reach the necessary threshold (700/800 GPP). At that point the (opportunity) costs already start to get bigger than the actual benefit. The logic is here that the 2nd GA will be launched somewhat after our amazingly successful warfare and it helps us in catching up teams that got big land areas with smaller effort..
So yeah, I'm a bit less ambitious with these plans & timings. I agree that while we are using Pacifism it would be nice to run specs in more than 3 cities, but I'm not sure that it brings us real benefits. What do you think, what are my major flaws?
