[SPOILERS] Athlete and Lewwyn are SHAKA OF THE VIKINGS

[athlete4life10]

T109 was played last night and I completed The Collossus in Charlottetown at EOT. I've got some pics but don't know when I'll get them up. At the latest tomorrow night for sure.

I believe Montreal also completed it's forge at EOT. Quebec City was founded and started a granary which will get chopped.

I either miscalculated or don't understand whip overflow onto buildings with multipliers as Stonehenge in Fredricton won't be done until EOT 111 (3T build). Not the end of the world.

The Settler for St. John's lands on T110 and founds T111 and I should be chopping a workboat out on T111 and a Granary on T114 at the latest so it's growth should do OK from the get go.

[athlete4life10]

To keep you enticed...here's a quick look at other players land. I don't have it all scouted so you'll see more of one than another but here you go. Mine to come in a bit.

Babylon Mainland:


Babylon Islands:


Byzantine Mainland (don't have much scouted here or elsewhere):


Indian Mainland:


Indian Islands:


Rome Island:


Rome Mainland 1:


Rome Mainland 2:

[athlete4life10]

And my land...

Starting Island...not much to see here:


My Back Island:

As you can see I'll settle this next turn. The first chop will go into a Workboat, the 2nd into a Granary.

The fun stuff...Mainland in the North:


South:

As you can see I've dotted 3 future city sites. Plan is to get purple, pink and then yellow. Hopefully I land them all

And some information to peruse over...

T110 - Top 5 Cities:


T110 - Score Graph:


T110 - GNP Graph:


T110 - MFG Graph:


T110 - Food Graph:


T110 - Power Graph:


T110 - F1 City Advisor:


T110 - F2 Financial Advisor:


T110 - F5 Military Advisor:


T110 - Demographics:


As you can see I'm lagging behind quite good. Some things that I can be happy about though are my production #'s (tied for 1st), Land area (3rd) and Population (5th). I believe I'll be able to increase my pop score pretty quickly and get out of the basement there so we'll see how it goes.

[athlete4life10]

And last but not least, a finer look into my civ...

At the start of T110 this is what greeted me

I'm particularly happy about landing this wonder as I believe I'm going to get some pretty solid benefit from it over the course of it's lifespan.

T110 - Charlottetown:

The plan here is to just grow. I'll be hooking up Calendar resources and once the library is done I think I'm going to just have to pump military for a while as the rest of my cities will probably be tied up on infrastructure.

T110 - Fredricton:

Stonehenge completes here next turn so after that I will build a Buddhist Temple and then probably hire priests and scientists. After the temple I might have to pause it a bit to get some more workers.

T110 - Halifax:

I'm pretty excited about Halifax. Moai completing here will be a big boost. Then it's just vertical growth from here on out. A couple of Triremes and Galleys will be the first builds from here after Moai.

T110 - Montreal:

With the help of a chop the Library will complete in time to take a run at Currency. The workers here will complete the plantation/roading of the silks and cottage the jungle tile right next to it. Montreal should be well taken care of in terms of worker duties after that. I think after the Library completes I'll slow build a settler here.

T110 - Niagara Falls:

Aah...I love the Falls . How long can I go before I can still get The Hanging Gardens here. Honestly I'm not prioritizing them but once my Library completes I'm moving onto an Aqueduct. I'm undecided how to go from there. I might just slow build it while growing and then 2-pop whip a Settler and overflow/chop it out. I don't know if they'll really last that long though! So hopefully they do and I nab them but who knows.

T110 - Ottawa:

Still not much to see here unfortuneately. I'm finally turning the tide on the culture of the Sugars so hopefully I'll get those back and can start to grow. At size 4 I'll 2-pop whip the Library and slow grow until I can do something else.

T110 - Quebec City:

Newly founded...not much to do yet. Chop the granary, move onto a Forge, Chop it out while growing.

Thanks for all the work you put into those big and interesting updates

Those graphs are not looking good at the moment. Especially the power- graph/score is a bit troubling. The difference between you (as the weakest) and the worst rival is twice that of rivals worst to rivals best.

[athlete4life10]

Ya the power graph is kind of scary. I just need 3-4 more turns then it'll start to rise dramatically. Both land and naval units will start churning out, Moai Statues is worth 10K power and I'll land construction shortly after. It'll get me atleast back within range of Nakor. So by T123 or so that should look a bit better.

[Bobchillingworth]

Also saying thank you for the update(s)! I particularly liked the look into Byzantine lands... it's kind of a sad feeling making a map and then not knowing what half of the players are doing with it :P


While you've had some slow progress due to early trouble with the barbs, it looks like you have secured a fairly large amount potential territory which should be quite strong once you fill it out, so congratulations on that

Agreed. I think one of my strongest potentials is that I seem to have secured a lot of quality land. Now if I can just put it to good use!

[athlete4life10]

So...I signed another NAP with Seven (India). This time until T200. This should allow me to have a good crack at Babylon when I get Beserkers going.
