Tell you what, throw Teleh's Company up there as garrison - I've heard it's pretty nice
Rest gently in peace Kalin's Expedition. You shall be resurrected, whence the technology exists. ray:

I'm not quite sure what you do next. Perhaps be a flotilla; we need wooden walls badly because we sure aren't going to want to face the Dutch on land.
It's a depressing world out there; the Dutch didn't land Taj. Serdoa, Plako, and Bigger are all golden aging now. :rolleyes:
Here's the demos. A bit depressing, except for the fact that I'm not in a GA and 3 of the Big 4.5 are; looking again this evening Slow surpasses me in GNP because he's landed Oxford. Yeesh, this is going to be sad for a while.
Still, the first of the universities are coming online, and I'm the only one running Printing Press towns and villages through them. Boy this is still an amazing city for a city with this much of the BFC given away/peaks.
I do want Emancipation, Free Speech, and Universal Suffrage soon. I have Plans for all this grassland I'm incorporating. A bit sad as cottages, though...villages take 30 turns, but only 15 soon!
Without major pain I wasn't going to beat the Taj times, but I can still enjoy what I did take with Liberalism: Western Rome.

If that's all the blood we get out of it, I'll be very disappointed!

Well, if I go Rifling then I'll obviously be going for Zulu 2: The Electric Bugaboo.

Yes. Well then, blood. Overall, looking good here. 3T gunpowder, eh? Any use for those guys or are you holding out for rifles proper?

Life goes on here in Generica. Heck yeah. Four more core-edges cities to be settled, although the more distant cities get settled first.

That drop in ETA is due the capital's university coming online. Still the biggest city in the world, although some don't think it the best.
I can't fully redress the crop differential with Plako, but I can sure get closer. Cut off above, all the new Pacific cities are building granaries; they need to grow. The only homebrewed one that will ever amount to anything great is Bella Vista here; thrill at actual tiles to work!
Of course, the Roman colonies are nice and lush. I took a peek into Voyager; yeah, ought to be fine. Reg "Oar" Rar is barrelling over with a knight, mammoth, and mace to overkill this.
Elsewhere, cities begin to blossom and mature. Hidden Valley is about to settle down; size 14, baray, watermill, 20hpt into muskets and knights. Stoney Knob will have a similar end-goal.

I assume Mardoc's Company is busy marching in parades, polishing bows and brasswork, rounding up dissenters, and otherwise supporting the power structure as MP somewhere?
