NOOOO THE WOLVES HAVE FAILED US QQ

...

Umm... what?

Commodore had his settler eaten by a wolf in PB5. We were sorta hoping this would, well, happen again . Him founding his first city indicated that his settler was not eaten by a wolf.

Unless you're "Um what"-ing about the "QQ" at the end. No idea what that meant, but I don't think he was summoning you.

Nothing happened this turn other than just move the scout/warrior.

QQ (usually rendered as qq) is an emoticon for crying eyes.

[pindicator]

Ah, good analysis scooter. I was meaning to look into that but got sidetracked by my own pity party (see WW thread for details)

[pindicator]

So off the cuff i'd say grow to 5 while building a granary and then whip a worker at size 5. I'll try to crunch some numbers today

[NobleHelium]

I don't see any point in whipping it at size 5 rather than size 4. We'll only have 4 improved tiles and 5 citizens once the new city is up, surely whipping the worker sooner would be better?

[pindicator]

So we could whip a barracks in our 2nd city on t47 if our worker puts in a chop. Except this feels like a terrible waste of early hammers. It may work better to tech towards a religion and try to expand borders that way. If the religion falls to someone else we can whip a monument for cheaper cost

As for the cap, it can hit size 5 on t44 and then whip a worker t46. Gotta remember this is rbmod and whips are nerfed

City name suggestions?
