Personally, I'd go for the faster city, but I think the options are pretty close in value.

I disagree.
 Optimal granary timing is more valuable then one turn for a new city. Assuming growth to the next size would already have happened/be imminent with the granary coming 2 turns late, you have enough happiness in the granary city and noone contests the settling spot. 
Turn 49
The scout have seen already the culture of what i think its BING since khemer would be blue i guess. The problem is that Rekenner has a chariot and he cant make me blind and not meet him. Please rekenner dont annoy me. It seems his army is around that part of the world since my warrior has seen nothing yet. Or at least i hope so. Demos keep being competent right now, but on next turn ill whip the capitol and will be come uglier, hopefully i recover fast from it. Rekenner power is overwhelming. But as much hammers he invest in a hopefully useless war the better for me, since he wont be able to pinkdot me since open a 2 front is not a good idea, as i learnt on PB56. I think i really need to meet Bing to see how is he doing. On tech there is only a new, someone took archery, i guess rekenner if he is in war with bing looking at his power. But ofc it can be anyone. What i know is that either bing or jack got Buddism since noone is giving me KTB of that tech. It really weird any of them decided to invest this early hammers in mist and meditation. The most important new is that Jesse settled his second city, and then iw as wondering if he whiped from 8 pop, i would consider that very unefficient since pop in those lvls is really costly, but its seen in the advisor he has still 8 pop, and then i saw that he didnt even convert to slavery, i really which he were as close as bing seems to be of rekenner, i think i would invest in some axes and rush him. But right now he is really far, and if i would capture those cities i think i would be on bankrupcy just for costs. If i get to oracle CoL with courthouses it would be much different. Maybe HA rush him? Im really tempted, but if i decide to do that i would totally get without mids or wihtout expansion, so im unsure. To finish this report, noone know eachother yet, which means they are putting all the EPs into me, and its a bit annoying, indeed Jesse has already tech visibility. I really wouldnt like to put my precious EP into him right now.

Turn 50
usually its the turn to make overviews but actually ive been pretty much doing so everyturn so i feel its not really necesary. Inc ase you want to ask or see anything in particular feel free. Whiped the capitol Next turn 2 granaries will be done EOT so i feel good with my position right now. Bellarch is going really nice with 4 cities already, and it seems rekenner would be too if it were not for this war, not sure if he destroyed any city or something but bing is just on 2 cities and might have trouble. Finally people meet each other so hopefully jesse stop putting more EPs into me, he will get vity visivility soon, and that would be really annoying. Demos are bad but i expected them even worse so im happy. There is 2 barb warriors annoyingly on my borders, i should win both, The south scout is on forest and 25% fortify and the other is on hill so 25% def. This one might die. 
Right now i have 3 and next turn will have 4.
One worker is roading towards forth city, the plainshill with clams and copper on first ring. He will 1 turn road on copper next turn since i decided to whip one turn after. Thats why copper was still connected on the same turn, but the mine will end 1 turn after. Once the mine is doen that worker will cottage the floodplains, i am afraid of bankrupcy so i will start on cottage now. Althought the main economy will be with specialist i believe. I will farm a lot and maybe serfdom will help with that coin for every farm, although i want to stay as much as possible on caste for the specialist. Other worker just finished choping a grassriver hill forest, and will road and mine that tile, that road is important since the next settler will come from the second city (Lily) and that road makes settling one turn before. That worker will mine and chop all the forest of the capitol to get mids there. edit: actually before keep choping will road the grasshill SE of the stone to conect the 5th city on time for mids. Other worker will finish the last chop of Lily for the granary, then will make a mine in another grassland river forested hill of Lily making those hammers into Oracle if everything works as planned. Then that worker will help with mids on capitol. The worker that will go out on next turn will get the marble going and then chop for another worker on Violet. |
