[SPOILERS] By the Rivers of Babylon, FIN has no effect (on krovice)

Answer to Zak's riddle within the spoiler so that Krill doesn't accidentally lose the lovely question he asked for.

Imagine yourself looking in a mirror and seeing someone standing behind you, facing you. You can think of the mirror as rotating the reflection around horizontally, and then flipping them horizontally. This interpretation feels natural. Alternately, you can think of it as rotating the figure in an arc directly over you and back down headfirst, and then flipping them vertically.

Imagining turning around to face the person is more natural than imagining flipping yourself over backward to face them, so we lean towards the former interpretation of which way the image was rotated and flipped. But neither is inherently more real than the other.

  1. Need 5 move galleons but some 4 move are OK as well, so realistically a good attack against ruff is defined by the time to Sttel, then Astro whilst build drydocks in Cf and WA, then lon enough to build the necessary boats, the land units we need we essentially pull out of thin air by removing them from teh dtay front. tl;dr about 18 turnsis when we would be able to attack. I believe that is too late.


  2. You forget who you are talking to. I'll attack anybody if I think I can win. I just don't see dtay giving us that opportunity.


  3. Winning.

Fuck symmetry, that's why. Stop trying to make me remember molecular symmetry.

Good question, keep them coming. I think the most concise answer is that it doesn't flip your view left/right, but flips it front to back.

We don't even need teamwork for that. Just blame the mapmaker. It's the RB way.

OK, updates for T165. So long as we don't get screwed over by the RNG, we should have Taoism in every city on the east coast from next turn. That leaves 4 cities to the west, the tundra cities, WA and then 5 island cities that need religion. FR is almost at the overflow cap for missionaries so we shouldn't have any problem getting those 12 missionaries we need for C1 drafted muskets. Cities are starting to accumulate hammers into military builds, so we can pop them out one after another when we revolt into Theo and Taoism on T167.

Steel, we have enough gold for two 100% turns, and a bit of overflow. I think we get Steel eot T170. dtay is on Compass, due in 1 (obviously). I'm hoping that we can overflow enough hammers from builds in some cities that we get a couple of cannon out eot T170, and start drafting T167 for a bunch of muskets.

RC is dumping hammers into a uni this turn. We'd just waste hammers into a knight or anything else, and universities are so expensive it'd be nice to get another one down for when we would build OU. If you disagree with this, then we could 1 turn a bank, but everything else is just dumping hammers into a piece of infrastructure.

WA is on a 3 turn bank. That cities a MOnster. So long as we run Merchants there it's better than a courthouse.

Okay, I logged in to take a look. Dtay declared and took two cities. From Pindicator.
