[SPOILERS] Lewger goes for the Bigwyn

[regoarrarr]

In any case missle is mostly used instead of missile in American English, even if it may not be exactly proper.

I've never heard this and I can't find any reference to it on the internet. Huh.

And I thought I was the only one.... Maybe it's a scheme to put out wrong information in thread to bump up post count?

It's an evil evil ploy...

I didn't realize you hadn't played the turn earlier Bigger, so I just got it now. The scout continues to move into dangerous waters...



I think we need to give it the woody promo and move onto the jungle there. It should survive the first lion and hopefully can avoid the bear.

[Bigger]

yeah I like woody promo as well. yeah sorry I had a long sleep I woulda caught the turn before it rolled, but glad you did.

yay for slavery .

[Bigger]

Turn 37:

scout took woodsman promotion and moved to jungle:

revealed sheep and claim The best cities we've seen so far are between us and Azza, I think the game is setting us up to fight azza eventually, heh.

founded Iliad:


trade routes from day 1 is nice
note that I have the SW, W spot assigned to iliad. this is being chopped currently into the WB, I assigned it now so we wouldnt accidently chop for the capital.

well this is unfortunate:

hah, Lewwyn called it. Thats the second seafood troll the map has given us. But this one isn't really so bad, since the city also revealed more land across the water. we should be able to claim that land (city 5 or 6) easily anyway if we keep expanding in this direction. Im not sure I would change the city spot anyway even if I did know about the crabs, this spot is pretty nice. we do need to scout that area soon though.

here's another bear:



lewwyn I would like to send that warrior to scout the area by the crabs and above the wine. We're going to need more than 1 warrior.

edit:

demos after 2nd city found:

the big jump in GNP is due to trade routes, I guess. the top food is probably the level 5 capital, ack.

[Old Harry]

C&D:

What has been happening:


Lots more question marks next to techs nowadays...

[Lewwyn]

Still nice work Harry.

I'm not sure about the 2nd warrior yet. I think the granary shouldn't be stopped. A little more of a farmer's gambit?

[Bigger]

well without another warrior we can't explore. the warrior will have to play zone control in between the two cities and can't even work as MP. (at least until we get roads connecting them, which is not a priority).

In any case we need 3 warriors before a settler.

[Bigger]

played the turn. ill post pictures after the next turn, stuck to the micro, although it does need tweaking its good enough for now. lewwyn, maybe we whip the overflow from the third worker into warrior, then go warrior-settler? OR maybe even warrior-warrior-settler? we're gonna get real barbarians eventually.

warrior heading to sit on the rice tile so it can reach either city - until we have more military. neither will need mp soon.

scout went to the jungle hill and revealed a crappy little island with no food and stone to the southeast of that scout.

diplo screen with azza and serdoa confirm that they both have second city up as well. doing good with the C&D Harry

Yeah I was thinking the worker overflow would be going into finishing a warrior > warrior since we'd regrow on warriors. Thing is neither city needs the warrior for MP according to my plan and we'll finish another warrior before we do. So my point is we will be finishing warriors pretty quick after T42.

well, ok. we should be safe until then. im really not worried about a foreign invasion. barbs are a bit scary but we shouldnt have to fear them while we still have a bear on our border. And in any case we're in BW now, so we can always whip in an emergency.

I would like to scout out that peninsula to the east, though, and I don't think the scout will be turning around anytime soon. we could send our current warrior in that direction and have him turn around for city #3, but we risk him getting et by a bear. or we can pump out 3 warriors after the worker, have 2 go towards city number 3 and one of them keep going after founding?
anyway I suspect city #4 will be in the area of the wine, so we can't put off scouting that area for too long.
