Turn 151
This turn we settled Juniper (for Incense) and Kipple (fishing village at the south pole). I think we can get PP in three turns with a few wealth builds, which will be more useful than geting compass. Dtay is Music, Nationalism, Mil Trad, Gunpowder and Rifling away from building Cavs. Any ideas what his plan is? He's having to keep large forces in a lot of border cities, which makes me happy. I offered Wetbandit and Nakor OBs and reassigned EPs to get tech visibility back on Krovice and Pindi and get it for Cynheard and plako. This is the trade screen comparison for before and after.
Fintourist got a quest when he logged in:
We need to have 12 Knights to get the prize - Hazelnut is working all hammers to make sure that happens this turn. We have 17 cities that need Hinduism. 8 already have a different religion, so getting five of them for free saves 150 hammers + something for failed spreads.
Flanking 1 on all our Knights enables Sentry and F2 (which in turn enables Mobility
) and gets us 10% odds of surviving battles that we'd lose (hmmm, is that really how it works?) Yuris got an event that sounds strangely similar last turn, but since we hadn't seen the quest at that point I don't think that means he beat us to it (I'm not sure how quests work in MP). If we'd get the promo on Cuirs and Cav too then I think its an obvious move, but if its just Knights then perhaps the religion is better for us?
All is quiet on the Mardoc front, I think BGN killed the northern Galley. Next turn we can put a stack of four Knights and a HA on the highlighted tile, which should be enough take out the 2 LB and 2 HA in Green. We could put a fifth Knight on the hill if we're happy to just leave one Mace in UV to defend against two HAs... The southern galley (marked with a sign) might want to pillage our nets so as a defensive measure I positioned our galley at the pinch point that he'll have to get through.
Demos and power
