Yeah, I'd be alot happier if Adlain was a bit more active in trying to learn. Twinkletoes also has a rep of being terrible, but at least he seems to try and has been improving, and that matters (to me) (I've been reading alot of old PBEMs, okay?).

I agree. TT has gone from a player that couldn't beat noble at the start to Emperor or so level. A huge increase in skill, but thats thru practice and listening to those who try to help him.

Seconded. TT actually cares.

TT has improved. Adlain...eh.
regoarrarr is actually falling behind a bit IMO. Not in pop growth, not in crop yield, but in cottages. In the next 20 turns he needs to rectify that, but tbh, he should be looking at an easy 50 cottages being worked.

It's a bit tough to work a lot of cottages when your biggest city is size 4  . He needs to lay off the whip in a few cities and let them grow asap.

He probably does now that he has used up all of the foreign trade routes, however, he has, what, another 8 settlers to slave out? He isn't far from doing just that tbh.

Lol thanks for the comments guys - opening this thread for the first time in a little while i wasn't expecting me to come up in the topics of discussion!
I do agree that Adlain has played a poor game where he has not shown his abilities in a very good light. However, in his defence, isn't this his first RB game?
If so, look at my PBEM 3 performance in my first ever MP game (actually don't literally look - its painful!) - I reckon he will improve, as I did, from reading the comments afterwards and working at the needed skills he is a little short on atm.

Plako would be better off teching Fued and going to Vassalage. Save more gold that way. Or tech Calendar, and use the extra happy to run cottages, although that is a long term solution.

Krill, not sure you mentioned this but what was the rationale on the Iron distribution?

I can't remember. I basically had Cyneheard run the entire map for strat resources (and food res next to the starts) and edited it as he suggested changes.
