I do have 3 scouts now. No techs is annoying but at least I get some more huts.

Another scout ? BEWARE MY MIGHTY ARMY OF DEFENSIVE 1 STRENGTH UNITS !




Also the player to my north is Molach, I decided to meet him right away. I hope he's the one with Buddhism (I thought it had to be him Barteq or HAK), if he is we're both fucked because we'll counter each other but the other side of the map will have to fight real hard to get religions.

Heh, that's happened to Borsche and I in PB22... we popped Agriculture from a hut then got 3 more scouts plus an XP hut. They all ended up dying quickly to bears though... shakehead

Quite the little reunion.

Aaaaand... It's Krill. The x in the northwest is part of my temporary dotmap and is about halfway between us. I think it will be a pretty vital spot.

I'm currently thinking about one of those two spots for city number one.




The western one has the advantage of having 4 ok tiles from the beginning (no need to chop a monument or pray for a religion spread), the marble one would be for an oracle play. I'm not sure if the oracle is such a good choice though, it would have to be built early enough that I'm the first to it (already have a headstart due to Poly+marble) and it needs priesthood plus masonry plus some worker turns into the marble plus worker turns into chopping it. If someone can do it it's India, it's just that it would mean building two WBs (one for the clam shared between marble city and the cap, the other for the fish) when I'd rather be building workers and settlers.

As you can see in the screenshot I went for double FW before settler strategy. I think it's worth it, they'll chop part of the settler once BW is in.

In case someone wants to compare people's starts I'm now working a 6/0/1 and a 0/4/1 tile, and a second FW will be out next turn.

I can't help but notice you're still alive. I have to question your dedication to your thread title. mischief

I haven't seen an enemy or barb warrior yet it's not fair !
And krill's new animals are too weak, one of my scouts ended last turn on flatland near a bear and he'll probably survive.
