T59 - 2 pop whipped the settler at plako

[Image: Civ4ScreenShot0279.JPG]

So that's 40 hammers overflow, which is 32 base hammers (subtracting out the forge). So we'll overflow into the aqueduct, so on T60, we'll have 32 overflow hammers + 7 base hammers. 39 hammers * 1.5 (OR + forge) is 58 hammers.

T61, we'll be at 58/67 in the aqueduct, and we will have also grown back to size 5. We'll single whip the aqueduct (30 hammers), and with the 7 base hammers at size 4, we'll have 28 overflow hammers which is 18 base hammers (subtracting out OR and forge)

T62, we have 18 overflow hammers + 40 from 2 forest chops + 8 base hammers at size 5 (We should be growing again since we grow like a weed)

66 hammers * 3 (100% for stone + 25% forge + 25% OR + 50% stone) is 198 aka 1 base hammer short. I THINK that we can get 1 more hammer on T62, which would be 67 * 200% or 201 hammers = thumbsup

Definitely going to need to make sure that I did the numbers right.

A few things going on - first let's talk Great Person.

We're currently at 49/67 (due in 4t), with 70% prophet and 30% engineer.

That should be 34 prophet and 15 engineer.

In 4t, we should have 8 more prophet points and 12 more engineer points (I believe this got patched to go on points not sources, right?)

So 42 prophet and 27 engineer - 60% prophet and 40% engineer.

Prophet for the Temple of Solomon and Engineer probably for the Great Library.

Mistake! But luckily a mistake for the good!

When I was simming it out, I realized that instead of counting 7 base hammers, I should have been counting 10 hammers after OR / forge, which gives 31 overflow hammers, or 20 after subtracting the forge and OR.

So on T62, it's 20 overflow + 40 chopping + 7 base hammers = 67h which gives a perfect HG thumbsup

In bad news, due to stupid galley loading / unloading movement rules, if we want to send the settler in plako (that I just whipped) on to our 4x4 island, it will found the turn after the HG is built frown

I still tihnk that we probably want to do that. We could probably found a city on our south coast before HG, but dunno about that.

Another option would be to use one of our 3 settlers to start marching towards banana.

And uhhhh we have about 2 days to get 2-3 more city names. Cmon people!

Check that - after further review we do have 1 city name already - next city will be named Commodore

Plan coming together

It is too bad I can't get a city on that island pre-HG - you can see the other 2 city sites marked out with "c"'s

Missed it by a turn (technically, missed it by the turn order frown )

Look at the SIZE of that aqueduct, man?

Also as you can see, we went with the odds and got a prophet in plako. He'll head off to build the Temple of Solomon

So apparently everyone is declaring war on Nospace this turn devil
