[spoilers] The what goes where?

Turn finally rolled. I am observing a turn order with Krill / Novice to keep them on their toes (haha).

Turn 113 - 50 BC

Turn 113 ... finally. As mentioned above, I am observing a turn order split with Krill / Novice. They seemed to think that I would attack them with my boats (with units).

I might just do that this turn.

Here is the situation ...

[Image: pb18-00214.jpg]

The units are as marked. They have OBs with Plako (blue) so they could have a loaded galley at red dot. All they can do from there is land units on my land mass ... they cannot threaten my cities.

Is all of this worth it for a worker? Yes, I think it might be. I have started some spears (<5 hammers!) in some other cities.

Any thoughts anyone?

In other news ... here is who I know in the world ...

Does anyone (ex-lurker) know more?

Here is another question for you ...

[Image: pb18-00214.jpg]

See the percentages on the signs above ... those are the percentage of Babylonian influence on those tiles. Why is the top tile with the food at 28% and the other 2 tiles below at 3%. They are all receiving the same culture from that island city. There is no other Babylonian city within cultural range.

War! Worker reclaimed. Other news in pictures below ...

The worker captured wasn't 'Ten (Ruff)' ... it was #1 ... but I renamed it to tweak Krill / Novice. I hope it works a little ... but not a lot.

BTW - completing the Horse Whisper gives you a stack of Horse Archers!

The capital pours culture into the 3% tiles but not the 28% tile.

Worker recovery mission complete. Novice offered peace as the beginning of last turn - I turned it down as I wanted to control where the units went. After evacuating the units, I offered a peace deal. This has the added benefit that I get 10t of peace with Krill / Novice and some time to build counters to their free stack of horse archers.

Turn 116 - 25 AC

Details to be added later (tomorrow ... maybe).

Work boat in the north east. Not exactly sure which direction to go here ... east or west. Flip a coin, guess, do one ... up to you.

My capital. It finally has some room to grow. I probably should steal the 2nd seafood back.
[Image: Civ4ScreenShot0676.jpg]

2nd city - grow on the cottages. Hopefully, this will be a city that generates most of my commerce.
[Image: Civ4ScreenShot0677.jpg]

... as well as this city.
[Image: Civ4ScreenShot0678.jpg]

This is my main military city. Very slow growth so it can't be whipped ... but lots of hammers (once we get to Civil Service.
[Image: Civ4ScreenShot0679.jpg]

This is a <5 hammers into an axe / spear and then double whip, overflow into another unit, rinse repeat. You might need to put the overflow hammers into the lighthouse.
[Image: Civ4ScreenShot0680.jpg]

In some ways, this city has too much food and not enough good tiles. It has stolen the capitals seafood ... so they can give that back. I've set this city up to double whip the axe with the overflow into another one.
[Image: Civ4ScreenShot0681.jpg]

Another good production city. Horse Archers?
[Image: Civ4ScreenShot0682.jpg]

Tons of food here too. Maybe this is the future Globe city? Look for happiness trades when the 2nd fur comes on line.
[Image: Civ4ScreenShot0683.jpg]

No comment. Only really there for the silver.
[Image: Civ4ScreenShot0684.jpg]

Ditto for the whale.

Blocking city to provide some cover to my other cities. Also frees up a settler down the track for a city on the stone.

Overview of the border with Q. The plan is to gear up for war with Q. Need to decide the best route into his land.
[Image: Civ4ScreenShot0687.jpg]

Another choice here - keep going east or head back west to pick up the scout?
[Image: Civ4ScreenShot0688.jpg]

Scout. Note the Roman(?) border in the fog. Should met them next turn.
[Image: Civ4ScreenShot0689.jpg]

See the power jump from the Krill stables and the free horse archers?

Boston is #2 ... even as it is only size 8.

Tech turned on - Construction (2).

Just saw this in the log ... interesting?

[Image: T116-Interesting.jpg]

It would appear that Q and Space are in a hot war. I think Space is to Qs north, separated by water ... so Space things he can take and hold Q cities. Watch for Q units heading north. Perfect timing as I want to build units to start taking Q cities near me. I wonder if we can get Cale interested in the party. Pity there is no way to ask him.

Do I have to observe any turn orders?

I am at war with a number of people but they are all transit wars. It appears to me that they are ignoring my transit vessals (galley, workboat) and so turn orders are not in applicable.

So - no.
