I wish I had dwarven workers...the Khazad already have 2 farms and half a gold mine, while the Hippus have 1.5 farms. Good chance of stopping growth for another worker . You'd almost think this is an AW game or something

[Tasunke]

Good heavens! why surely this isn't an AW game ... isn't it one of those "role playing games" they sometimes play over at civfanatics?

Dwarf workers are an often overlooked benefit for the Dwarfs. Double hill top movement means faster mines/forested hill chops and they get a boost to their work rate as well. 1t flatland or hill roads? Yes please sir, two bags full sir.

Yep, being able to bypass 1/2 the rough terrain with your worker certainly is nice. Almost as nice as an indian fast worker

hmm, I wonder if any civ in FFH2 deserves a fast worker ... maybe Mechanos? Doviello? its a tough call ...

and now FANSERVICE!

Ok, this is too much growth with not enough useful tiles. I start on a second worker, size 3 with one improved tile just isn't enough.

Other than that, not much newsworthy this turn. I want to build a couple cities before I bear down on stables, but so far I don't really see any good sites that are close. Hoping the scouts in the west find something.

Right, since we're in God King I'll go binary research ( until the +1 unhappy from vaults goes away ) while slow building pagan temple.

We should time the WotE to fall at the end of my turn so the shrine goes into one of my cities ( preferably the capital )

Sounds reasonable. I didn't know the owner of the holy city was controllable. But as long as I keep an eye on it, I can ensure I'm not the one who finishes the research.

I'd be surprised if you have a second city by the time Kilmorph finishes, between vaults and the rate we ought to get there. Especially since you're almost to having a gold mine.

[Tasunke]

what is "going binary on research" or "researching binary"?

Alternating between 100% gold and 100% science rather than keeping the slider at breakeven.

Haven't posted many details lately, but have a picture with my most recent happy find:


And...I just noticed I forgot to reassign the city's workers to the new farm, will do that next turn.
