[spoilers] Borsche Finds Out Going Worker First Is Pretty Good

Alright! Got my two cities in so time for an update:




Looking good, looking good. Wetbandit has 2 axes lurking around so I had to pull some work to get two axes and an archer in the area. Not a problem though, as I needed more military. Kinda unfortunate to stretch so far out from the capital but grabbing this land is vital.




Daisy is a fucking great city, and the main reason is that gives me the perfect staging tile. The culture of Uxmal/Mayapan won't touch the circled tile, so I'm free to control that, and can fork both cities from that tile very easily.






Pics are old, so I knew this for awhile, but I don't have recent scouting and their city counts have stayed consistent. So uhhh highlands map. But everyone's on a 3 man island. Uhhh okay. Someone needs to ban commodore from making decisions with regards to maps.




Also old as hell so ya'll know this but lmfao. Yuri lost a city to barbs... I did see him walking around here with a holkan and a settler (or maybe it was just a settler/scout? I can't remember) so I knew he planted here and that it was vulnerable. Yuri clearly went with maya so he could hook up copper super late but I think he might have learned his lesson...




Doin good!

More on that yuri settlement... it sucks! if barbs didn't take it then WB surely should've threatened it with an axe or something. why settle it on the wrong side of a river on flatground. 1N2W gets a PH spot with pigs, plains sheep, grass forest hill deer, and copper.

even 1N would be better...

looks like WB declared war on yuri. It was only a matter of time, really, I'm not sure if Yuri has built much in the way of military and is basically just defending with only holkans still. I'm gonna have to jump in and see if I can't snag Uxmal.

I need to check the event logger more often, apparently he declared war like 2-3 turns ago lol... ~Casual Play~

This has basically been the story of the game for me. I'm doing well, but Wetbandit has just been #1 in everything, compounded by his Oracle, and him bullying Yuri and claiming more land. IDK what to do here other than solidify my defenses, expand to the islands, wait for him to attack Yuri, and try to attack him.




Next city will probably go here. I'm really shocked Yuri hasn't already claimed this area, I kinda gave up on it way early, after seeing his first borders, thinking he'd move here soon, but it turned out he had bigger problems with barbs and WB.




I need happiness pretty bad if I'm going to keep pace with WB. Right now I'm pushing for Monarchy just to get past these size 6 happy caps. I was exploring my nearest 'large' island, which has sugar on it and probably some other happy resources not found on our continent (the only happiness resources on the continent are Silver, Furs, Spices, Silks, and then a 2 tile Ivory island off everyones coast). IDK if I can push for Calender next though. Probably Currency, Construction, or HBR are better bets atm (WB already frickin has Currency!!, although I think he lacks Alpha, and I doubt Yuri or I will OB with him).
