PB8 is only going on because of YOUR stubbornness, Bigger!
I needed to post that somewhere.

Wow, I totally forgot all the Impi/Settler drama happened right at Christmas time. It was a pretty terrible timing all things considered.

This is awesome:
I remember you doing a few hand-drawn maps in PB5 too, and I always thought those were super cool. Wish I could draw. Hopefully there's a couple more of these in the thread.

How did this not become QOTM?!?! Injustice.

By the way, I see the comments here, and Fishing first really was the correct call for us in terms of expansion. We did a ton of simming, and it came out the best, which says more about how terrible things were for AH first than anything. Our capital sucked.

I'm just now into the part where the RNG turned sour (right around when iron was hooked), so basically for the next hour or so I'll be bitterly weeping at my computer screen.

I needed to post that somewhere. Honestly, I think its more misunderestimation of Plako, and his advantages. Think about how quickly our later wars would have been over if I had circumnavigation; if you guys had C-nav they never would have begun. Transports are also just brutal.
Honestly, I kinda regret not quickly realigning for a CV myself once the first offensive east sputtered and died.
Cest la vive, non?

Agreed that you had a very tough capital to develop.
Worker/WB/ect while teching Fishing/mining/bw ? Worker winds up with it's thumb up it's arse for a lot of turns, but 6f pigs feed a lot of forests to get the wbs out while waiting on BW.
I haven't simmed out your start, and the signage was in part due to not realizing you'd netted the second Clam.
But I still like our opening better all things considered.

Well, I like your capital way better.
But yes we simmed it, and we couldn't find a way to make the pig first come out ahead since the worker stagnated. I initially thought our capital was okay until we found simming for it to be a total nightmare.
