 It's a post on topic!!   So, what the hell is happening here? Next turn we'll settle Boca Juniors, 4th city, on top of the ivory. Why on top of the ivory? Because I think it's best than the 1W location suggested by Darrell and since I'm playing, we'll go my way. Yes, the pig will be on second ring, which is very bad, but I'm prepared to give the shared wheat to the new city until we get the pig. I didn't want to orphan that sheep, so ivory it is. I'm building granaries all around because I've heard they are good. RM will finish it next turn, at 13/26 food, with a chop. Independiente will finish it next turn, by whip, with 12/24 on the food box (by working copper + grass hill - i have to make calculations to see if skipping the pig is actually worth it). Milan will grow to size 4 and 2 pop whip the granary when appropriate (it doesn't have good tiles to work beside the 2 resources, so let's whip that pop). I'm on the process of laying cottages around, trying to grow cities - let's put those 2 happy resources to good use. I need to improve the horses and likely get a chariot. Also need more workers... Next city likely goes for the stone, not that agressively settling towards WLP (I think 1NE of the stone is best - stone is a good tile and this plant gets cow first ring). Ichabod out!! 
Update with pictures of pretty girls, posts. Update with game content, no posts. I'm happy we have things on perspective around here.
  2 pop whipped for the granary. 11/22 food at eot, perfect! Probably grow to 4 and get some workers...  I know it's not very smart to settle backfill cities this early, but I want that X spot for our Moai city (we have stone, rejoice!) and so we can settle the marble for improved TRs. I'll think some more about it, but going Maths, Sailing, Masonry might be a good idea.  City 1NE of the stone? cows + fps for food and fingers crossed for a resource hidden in the dark tile. I really don't want to openly antagonize WLP, but I want to get most of the land for us. That seems like a good plant.  I like a city 1NW of corn and 1W of fish. 1NW of corn is a monster city... RM is growing on a rax... Next turn, I'll chop a forest into a worker at size 4. Grow after that into rax + chariots. I want to explore a bit more. Boca Juniors is growing on a monument, + chop to complete at 30/30 hammers. The other 2 cities are (really) slow building spearmen.
Monuments ho!
If only you and me and dead people know hex, then only deaf people know hex.
I write RPG adventures, and blog about it, check it out.
Ok, the turns are all yours again. I'd try to get some more workers and try to settle that incredible plains hill city 1NW of the corn as the 5th city. No point in delaying such a good spot for way worse ones. Getting a chariot to explore SE is also a pretty good plan, I think (maybe after the rax in RM - probably promote it to flanking, so that we can get sentry promo after 2 barb kills).
WLP met another player, because he's no longer spending EP on us. Not sure if it's Molach (the one we can see, but haven't met yet). It looks likely that we are alone with WLP on a small island, which is very bad. I was expecting a map with 1000 players to be different, but such is life. I'm not very fond of duel situations... There are spears being built in Independiente and Milan, so they can already be emmergency whipped, if needed. |
