[Spoilers] Dreylin's short visit to a late Era

[Dreylin]

Start is mirrored:

Interesting! Looking back at those two shots from last turn it's totally obvious, although it seems like it's not quite 100% mirrored in terms of shape (the lake fish area) and resources - Scooter has Incense where we have Gems.

I'll try to get some comparison overview shots tonight so we can compare; e.g. it looks like NobleGas's city that we can see is planted 1N of the Wheat (NNW of Llamas).

It also means there's little reason not to exchange maps at this stage.

[Dreylin]

I did Kremlin in 25 turns total, but it wasnt perfect try considering other domestic aspects, so I will make some more tries tomorrow and review micromanagement. For this turn everything seems to be clear.

We should probably plan on missing that date by a couple of turns due to micro screw-ups and unnecessary Mines...

t258 -

Civics switch:


Overview:


Scooter:


NobleGas:



2 questions:

1) do we buy the Theatre in Chickens next turn?
2) does the NE Worker go straight to the Sheep and Pasture in 3t, or does he road the Jungle for 2t, then we bring up 2 other Workers from the Wheat and complete the Pasture in 3t?

1) No, no hurry with this
2) Need to check, in my tests I went to that sheep later. I focused on farms between Chickens and Lhamas.

Meanwhile


The first GS is born. Was it unsuccessfull shot for GE -> Taj or attempt to steal Communism? We need to meet all the rivals to keep situation under control.
The only PHI civ is India, could it be someone else.

[OT4E]

I did it! T23:


But it is just with 2 settlers, bureaucracy and some starvation.
GPs on T20, T21, T23, T23 (2 GAs at one turn).

[Dreylin]

Wow, that's some achievement!

Interesting to see the first Great person go so early; it's almost got to be our PHI opponent, hasn't it - since no Pacifism until last turn?

It's my wife's Birthday today and we're taking the kids out and then eating out in the evening, so there's a good chance I can't get to the turn. Can you play this one?

T9: start sheep, finish wheat farm, chop forest (into worker) near Lhamas, road gems, farm flood plains

T10: farm chopped forest, 1 worker to the gold, another roads, farm 2/3 between Chicken and Lhamas

T11: hurry library, start road gold, road to deers, 1/3 deers, finish farm, 1 worker goes to the cows,

T12: Taj in Chickens, put 2 scientist in Goats, finish deers, finish gold, start farm, worker from sheep goes into the forest to chop for cap

T13: road wheat (we need it for health), 2 more workers to the forests around Goats,

T14: chopped 1 forest near Goats, start chopping 2 others, wealth in production, still just 1 scientist, 4 workers to the forests around Chickens

T15: put 2nd scientist in Goats, put artist in Chickens, start chopping forests, adopt slavery (but not slaving yet),

T16: forest chopped into settler (both Goats and Chickens), put 2nd artists into Chickens, start teching SM on 100%

T17-19: buy settler in Chickens, whip settler in Goats (keep 2 scientists), I stop describing what workers doing, because they follow settlers wherever we decide to plant, Lhamas grow to 11 in by T20

T20: is the most interesting, we adopt Caste and Representation, 6 scientists in Goats(GS in 1), 10 artists in Lhamas, 5 artists in Chickens, science to 0% again (T16 is too early to start teching)

T21: GS discovers SM, 11 artists in Lhamas (GA in 2), 7 artist in Chickens (GA in 2), research in all cities , we still need ~300 science into Communism to take it with GAs (in real game I hope we wont need to produce much because of new cities)

T22: finish line, 12 artists in Lhamas, 9 artist in Chickens, so only 1 citizen in Lhamas dies

Ok I will play.
They couldnt use pacifism because no religion revolt yet.

Done, following the plan I posted:

That is pretty awesome plan. I am really waiting to see it happening in the game.
