I have a good feeling about the tiles we'll see with Tricky. There's gotta be Horses in the fog, I'm sure of it...

[dazedroyalty]

There'd better be something in the fog besides that bear!

[meatbalz]

grassland riverside sugar. no horse or bear in sight. finished turn + swiss finished his just after so rolled over. suggested moves in red.



we need to take advantage of visibility on the bear. if we move tricky dick 1 E and next turn we don't see the bear then we know for sure we won't move next to him if we go E again (course there could be other animals out there or even barbs now it's past T20)



moving to the N of the 2 forests keeps Cortes moving W and gives him the added protection of the river to protect from attacks in the 3 tiles N

i won't be logging in again for almost 24hrs, possibly 36hrs. hope everything goes well. we have a warrior due in 1. i'd think of sending him NE a few tiles to have a look. if an enemy warrior shows we can bring him back + can build a warrior in 3 turns and we have visibility on anything 2 tiles from our borders so no risk involved. settler's not TOO far off (T39 with current micro plan) so we need to start motoring on the recon work in order to find a good spot for city 2.

[dazedroyalty]

I agree with these movement suggestions and will take over for playing turns for now. Warrior #2 moving NW from capitol?

Can we re-post or post a link to the most up to date Micro plan?

[Ilios]

Agree with all moves, but I'd like to move Tricky SE instead E next turn (agree to move him E this turn)
Warrior #2 to move on the plains hill, from there on to the forests to explore the area around the grassland cow.

MB has put the current microplan on page one of the thread.

Dazed, I hope you don't mind, but I went ahead and made the moves we agreed on. (VERY curious about discovering what's hiding under those fogged tiles)

Lo and behold:



And like that, we have our site for our second city! City should go NW of horses.

<huge sigh of relief>

And here's Hernan:



Possible moves SW SW or W NW

[dazedroyalty]

No problem - I'm glad you moved. I had it in my head that you were gonna be afk. Especially good news since you discovered the land of milk and honey (aka wheat and horsies!). What are the odds we have Bronze in our cap's BFC?

[Ilios]

What are the odds we have Bronze in our cap's BFC?

I don't think we'll have any strategic resources in our BFC, but one can hope...

I've sent you another updated C&D spreadsheet.

- Krill is probably going for a religion (quite sure he discovered Myst last turn)
- A4's capital has grown to size 3...
- Rome is the first team to get land point increases for the first border pop tiles.

[dazedroyalty]

I'll look through the C&D more thoroughly tonight. Thanks for staying on top of that. I'm interested to see what A4 says back...
