[SPOILERS] Dazed and scooter play Stalin of Vikings and make a big mess

[retep]

It's the same except you can't build something in one place and get failgold in another city - so you just can't double up basically. I don't think it's a huge priority only because past our capital's forests, hammers will be a bit scarce here because slavery nerf + coastal locations. Stone + forests makes me think Henge but if we're already thinking Oracle-> Colossus then that seems insane to spend that much time wonder-ing it up. Can't get caught into the trap of "Industrious so must build wonders."

Actually when I made the question I was thinking more about building moai(since you have stone close) in diferent citys to get fail gold but It seems that is not possible in this mod.

So what is going to be the tech path?

So what is going to be the tech path?

That's what we need to figure out next. I'll work on it this weekend when I'll have a lot more time. Head to Priesthood yes, but we'll have to figure out what techs we'll need before then. Would be sweet to get Sailing quickly and get early Trading Posts (really speed up exploration to get 3-movers out there quickly), but we'll see. Plus an early Moai would be nice. Wheel, Agri, Pottery, and the like are all usually super important techs that we might be able to afford delaying here under the circumstances of the land we're looking at. We'll see. Ideally we'd finish the settler and second worker and then go right into Oracle using the two workers to chop it.

I'll hate that gross pile of plains instead . At this point Colossus will mostly be our way of ensuring we at least have SOME non-terrible tiles to work.

Commogawa probably went BW first since their tech took longer than most others who probably went with some version of Agriculture/Hunting/Mining/Fishing. I don't have interest in serious C&D but that would make sense to me.

Our thoughts on this patch of plains:

scooter: not enthused about that patch of land but the fog-gazable land west of it looks promising

dazedroyalty: yeah. let's HOPE!
fingers crossed

me: we've been doing a lot of that. mixed results but more good than bad.
at least we're not on a 12 tile island
this island is gonna have AT LEAST 30 tiles.

dazedroyalty: it's huge, man
huge

me: everyone else might as well quit

dazedroyalty: so true
plus all that food

me: i mean plains sheep
GAME OVER SON

dazedroyalty: and gems and gold and silver
we should send regrets
:D

me: definitely.
good luck to everyone playing for 3rd place (since duh krill brennus will get 2nd)

Hoping for something good in that hut. Should be early enough that we don't get a hostile hut. We could go southwest and see if there's seafood down there, but at this point our next city is more likely to go north for crabs/stone anyways than plains sheep.

[dazedroyalty]

I finally feel justified for going West. It's looking promising once we pass the plains



Just got gold tho.... that's not as exciting.

SW of the crabs is definitely land. Check it out.

Also, the crabs overall is super helpful. And yeah - looks like several green tiles and a river.
