Spiritual Industries by Mackoti

Half of RB

It's the cool half, so it's okay

[NobleHelium]

The irony is that that isn't slightly more than 10 people.

[BRickAstley]

WTF?

Half of RB is helping to spam up this thread and Kyan is still ahead in post count?

WTF?

Cause he got a few days head start. Under your undying leadership we shall topple that count, undoubtedly.

Nah, just random spam to increase the paranoia of everyone else in the game to make thing more challenging for Mack when he does get back. :D

Sounds like a fun extra victory restriction for mackoti to have to deal with.

Changed your name from Ramesses II to Mackster. Password is m7. You can change both when you get back.

Warrior 1N to check out the river. Settled in place. Game wanted the city to be called Uruk, even though you have light blue Viking colors. Compromised with Bluruk.

End turn.

[Ichabod]

I think it's greek colors.

[BRickAstley]

Yeah, that one is Greek.

[Partisan]

I've played so much civ2 I still think the greeks as the orange civ. Wouldn't be awesome if you also could pick your colours and flag design along your leader and civilization?

[pindicator]

We'd probably have to do a draft for colors and flags then too

Played t1. Obvious starting plan is to tech AH which finishes same time as the worker. Pasture the cows immediately, growing in just 4t and producing a warrior. Then begin producing a worker or settler at size 2 while the worker improves the corn.

A settler could be built in 6t (2h overflow + 3 * 9h + 3 * 12h) and plant 1S of the rice 2t later, with an immediate trade connection via a single road segment, and the worker ready to farm the rice with no wasted actions. That seems reasonable. A second worker could be good too. In that case, another worker tech would be important. (Pottery or Mining.)

I suppose I should be slightly annoyed by Bob posting a private message in a public thread, but with the context...I think it's fair to say my opinions have changed since last April 2011.
