[SPOILERS] Yossarian blames Caledorn

[Caledorn]

Awesome report Cal. Thanks for that. A couple brief notes:

Switch the bare grass to a coast for +2 free commerce!

Thanks, Yossarian!

And er, yes. That would have made more sense. But the turn flipped and the city grew, so I guess we lost those 2 commerce. Hopefully one turn without isn't a crisis.

Courthouses are fairly expensive to whip. In cities without Christianity, you need 30 hammers invested before you can 3-pop whip. In cities with Christianity, you only need 13 hammers invested (11 base hammers). So plan those out carefully, as you might not be able to whip as soon as you hope. It will take some cities, such as CP, awhile to manually produce those 30 hammers.

I have to admit that here is one point where my Civ skills obviously are lacking. I have little to no experience with planning things down to this level of detail. I won't be able to plan things like that throughout this game either, since I simply don't have that much time to do calculations down to such a detailed level.

Nevertheless, we need those courthouses, and we won't be able to spread Christianity very quickly, so my gut feeling is that we should get them built, and then Markets in our most profitable cities after that.

I was using workers primarily to chop out units, as the most important improvements are already complete. Make sure to leave enough workers in the north to camp Traffic Jams' furs once the border pops in 3 turns. Also, we'll need workers to pasture Rainy Xmas' cows once borders pop, but make sure to cover those so Rome can't snipe the workers with chariots out of the fog.

I think we should continue to chop forests for units where appropriate, but perhaps some of those courthouses can be quickly built by chopping too? It seems a meagre amount of gnp right now, but in the long run (if we are left alone by Rome at this point to be more specific) they will definitely pay off, right?

Thanks for the reminder about the fur I don't think I've moved any of our workers out of the area, and we have plenty tiles that needs to be improved up there too, so we should be good I believe.

Our OB with classical_hero contains a no-scouting clause, so if you plan on entering his borders don't forget to get his permission. He's not the fastest with diplo so you may want to approach him now. That galley does not contain a chariot, as far as I know?

Unless I had a momentary hallucination (which might actually be true, since I had a dentist's appointment yesterday, which in turn meant I took a liberal dose of benzodiazepines), I am certain there was a chariot on the galley. I was pretty confused by the presence of said chariot (and I will be even more confused if I did hallucinate it :P), so I tried to message you on GTalk to ask what the chariot was for, but my phone refused to send the message (apparently Google had some issues according to some statuses I read on Facebook).

I was not planning on entering Ponyland, but there seems to be a fogged area that is not touched by any culture in the south there. What was your plan for the scout?

Now that we have classy's graphs, you should switch ep spending to someone else. Our agreements mean no espy spending against DMOC/Teddy, and no more than needed for graphs against the Cat Burglars (but I forgot to communicate that agreement to B4ndit, so you may want to do that. I think Asterix and I made that agreement in a chat.) My plan was to get Cat Burglars' graphs next.

Keep up the good work!

I did change the espionage spending, and I think B4ndit was the target actually, but I will double check who I put the spending on when I play T125 tonight

Will do my best, even though some aspects I am obviously pretty green on still.

Oh, and since I'm on my phone right now I didn't multi quote, but thank you very much for your praise as well, Cheater Hater.
