Turn 45
Pottery is about to come in..
We have 2x wet corn now farmed.. So look at these food demos!
5 food lead on T45 in a 33-player field is pretty crazy!
(yeah, sure, I know these things fluctuate a lot, and this early demos won't really tell anything..
but hey this is definitely a reason to celebrate after our PB13 start. I checked some of our older reports at this phase and I think one of them had us dead last in MFG & GNP and 3rd last in Food... and we definitely used more than double the amount of time for sandboxing as we struggled in that jungle-dry-rice-seafood-plains-cow-nightmare! This is so refreshing, let's not screw things up here!)
Very tempted! AH will be started next turn..
Yeah, I think after AH we want Fishing+Archery and everything else is still totally undecided. Sailing will be a fairly important early-ish tech for us, because it enables whaling boats and that extra happy means pretty much an extra cottage for all our core cities.
And reg that plains hill plant, it's very tempting, I agree! I haven't simmed that but due to worker logistics/positioning it should be probably one turn slower (maybe even two) than the sugar plant, but of course it can be organized.
- I'm kind of expecting Azza to beat us to it though
- It's even a bit more aggressive than that sugar city, but it's stronger, and hill defense!
- Our micro should be pretty clear for the next 6-7 turns regardless of this so there is still some time before deciding, which is good because I'm not sure I have any sandboxing time during the next couple of days.
- Were you suggesting settling it instead of sugar or whales city?

Not sure I like sailing so early, lighthouses are good but not for another 30 turns surely. I'd head for maths so we can choose currency or construction.
