I was wondering; with the current pace of the game, can you give a rough estimate on when we will reach turn 200? On which real-life date is what I mean. I am really looking forward to all the action, and I am rooting for the underdog(s) - if you can call the 4-man party in a 4v1 for the underdogs :D

Thank you for the support smile. I think we've realistic shot as long as allies really focus on this and start building units in numbers soon enough (us included wink). There needs to be hundreds of units in the field on T200.

Assuming there are not too many technical glitches I suspect T200 comes in ~30 days.

Yeah, I seriously want you guys to buck RB tradition and organise a successful dogpile. Good luck!

I'm using whip sparingly and growing the cities to take as much advantage of Golden Age as possible.

LP got unsuprisingly Banking. Economics hopefully takes 2 turns from him wink.

Depressing - LP got Economics in 1T. Granted there must be quite a bit of overflow, but still he is making way more beakers than I thought.

Intresting development in the power graph department.

Locke has surpassed us this turn on power. He is planning something that probably isn't attacking LP. Not totally happy about it, but granted he is free to do whatever he wants. What is Adlain thinking? I think we should see something on his power graph also, but there doesn't seem to be anything.

I'm working coastal tiles to grow my cities that explains the high crop yield.

He still has more power than LP.

Lol. LP is heading towards Astro I think. He finished Compass last turn.

T169

I'll collect gold this turn to think what I want next. I've time to take Education and it might prove useful to get Oxford up. Other alternatives are to take a shot at Democracy and SoL since I think I might have a chance assuming LP is concentrating on Astro+Chemistry, but that probably means too big delay to get rifles online or go towards Banking and maybe Economics. I'm thinking to convert to Bureacracy in 2T when we get our next Great Person.

Luddite mentioned something interesting. We could try to spread Christianity everywhere and deny LP's victory by electing one of the alliance (Luddite since its his idea?) winner. It would just be between us and Luddite I would imagine.

We should try this as a plan B.

That would be the most ridiculous AP victory ever. Using his own wonder against him.
