hi ilios, i think per your C&D india don't have TW yet??? did i miss it? that's why i only had 3 civ bonus. it doesn't matter in this case as it gets rounded down so in any case it's still a 1 beaker/turn bonus
as for archery i really should have the tech chart open when i do these things
yeah, we get a 20% bonus, meaning if we're putting out 21 raw beakers, if 3 civs we've met have it we get it in 4 turns flat.
we're losing 2 gold/turn at 100% so we have 11 turns' worth, more than enough to put 1 turn into BW and finish both archery + TW @ max before or at worst the same turn city 2 is founded
we'll know whether archery or TW is the better option once BW is in, if we have copper at DIM we might need a road to hook it up if it's not on a river. if we don't have copper getting an archer into midas is prudent, as you said. if we have river copper
if we have copper in the tile we've already mined [/wishful thinking]
once we get pottery on T62 we can start putting up cottages, which we'll need to do to support a relatively early marble city that can hold its own in a culture battle
