[Spoilers] It's time to be casual again

Should be able.

Thanks

I played both turns. The island city is founded (for a LOT of coins) and our demos are now kind of acceptable.







I allowed myself to rename Omelet (that should be spelled Omelette) to Bouillabaisse :



Which is a fish soup from Marseille

and the new city to Fondue

which is found in Savoy (near the Swiss border, they do it too).

Glad ICTR was worth something. Now we just need to cross our fingers on the Mids. Speaking of which: I believe the third-ring forest 3S1E from Blanquette would chop into the cap, maybe make up a bit for my mistake. The real way to speed it up, though, looks like just getting some more happiness so the cap can work more mines - I guess that's just the Jackalope site, really.

We should probably consider revolting to Judaism and OrgRel, too. +25% on the Mids would save us ~47 base hammers, which I think would pay for the revolt time. The extra happiness would let us work another mine, and of course all the rest of our empire could benefit too. Two turns of revolution is quite painful, though.

[AdrienIer]

We'll be getting a coinflip for judaism at least.

I don't know if a double revolt is really efficient. Maybe if we were to go for monarchy next for HR+OR, but I'd rather go for writing and a library for a quick GS and an academy.

[Mardoc]

Yeah, double revolt is a painful idea. We need to get into our religion eventually but I'd prefer to do it with a golden age.

On that subject...why academy? Where academy? We don't have any commerce monster cities at all, and I don't know that we will be able to have any either - the terrain doesn't really suit for having a ton of cottages in a city instead of a few cottages in every city.

Plus, even if we do want an academy, what's the rush? If we get Mids, we'll want to run Scientists everywhere, which ought to give us plenty of opportunity for an Academy later on.

[AdrienIer]

Yeah, early academy is not necessarily a great idea but it has to be considered when we're phi

[AdrienIer]

The turn that just rolled is yours

[Mardoc]

Yeah, early academy is not necessarily a great idea but it has to be considered when we're phi

So, what about running an early golden age for our civic swap/adopt religion/speed along Mids?

Ok, should be able to play tonight. When are you back?

[AdrienIer]

Sometime friday.
