[SPOILERS] ALWAYS PEACE? What will Lewwyn do?

[regoarrarr]

Hey I'm fine with you breaking the record. Also fine with the award being named after Parkin since he was the "originator" at least in my mind. I just need to feel validated over the size of my e-genitalia

I also didn't realize you were on Normal speed here. So good luck!

[fluffyflyingpig]

Why do you have both rabbits and bunnies?

[Lewwyn]

Why do you have both rabbits and bunnies?

Why not?

It's mostly because I don't have a list made beforehand so I just put down whatever I haven't done that I can think of even if it is similar to something else. I mean some aren't even really animals... Sphinxs? Dragons? Unicorns? Well Unicorns might be legit.

[Lewwyn]

I've got a lot of turns to update. About half in this post and after I format another group of pics.

[SIZE="5"]T173:[/SIZE]



Dragons and Goats founded. I've started training a ton of Quechua. Going to need 1 per city and currently I'm sorely lacking.

Chemistry came in this turn

Demos:



#1 in MFG, thanks my Chemistry Workshops! I plan to simply Workshop EVERYTHING now.


[SIZE="5"]T174:[/SIZE]

The North:



And South:



RepParts in Steam Power Next.


[SIZE="5"]T175:[/SIZE]

Steam Power in, Coal discovered:



Whoops... Nakor stole both! Hurry! Other side!



Yikes! That was close. There is another up north:



But its not hooked up.

Steel is next!

Demos:



These demos are awesome. Yay for being #1 in everything again!

BTW this is the turn I pillaged Cyne's road. A footnote that doesn't even have a Screenie! Shows how important it was to me. Though just to clarify, I knew it would break trade routes and with no Q + 6 pop + emancipation I knew he would have 4 happy and at least 9 unhappy. Possibly 10 depending on the emancipation level. So I did know that much.

Exploring the Nakor underbelly:



Also:



Go go Hindus! I'll have this side fully converted with this Missionary. I still have a lot left to convert though.

In this screen I'm currently teching Railroads BUT I will switch to Biology I believe. Get the +1 foods and delay Railroad because I think Railroad and machine gunners obsoletes Qs!

Milscreen:



Only 40 Qs I've been building more every turn. I need to get as many as I have cities before I get Railroads. So after Bio, probably Lit>Music>Physics. I need approximately 66 Qs... Maybe getting 8-10 a turn currently.

Demos:



Go Go MFG!

[Lewwyn]

Two more...

[SIZE="5"]T177:[/SIZE]

Interesting turn:



Cyne started his 2nd GA and popped into Emancipation and US.



Culture wars...

I got Bio this turn, lets look at before and after demos:





That's a nice uptick. Also note that rival GNP is Cyne in a GA. Still #1 yo!


[SIZE="5"]T178:[/SIZE]

More culture Wars:



Need 66 Q's to fill the cities in this land:



Currently:



Aight! Should be able to fill the quota in a couple more turns before Railroads.

Demos:



This GNP is inflated by double discount tech Music. Still.

[Lewwyn]

Gonna win.. that is all tyou need to knoQW!

before 1500 mack, you need to know that to.

[Boldly Going Nowhere]

Great show. I've really enjoyed the updates.

Clarification. Was drunk at the time and not 100% sure I can beat 1500.

Great show. I've really enjoyed the updates.

Thanks!

Here's the progress on the third GP:



After I get fish hooked up I'll add another priest spec and it'll finish a turn early.

In terms of techs we're getting close:



I will finish Physics next turn and grab the GS. Then go Rifling, Artillery, Rocketry. AT that point I can then start the Apollo program and build it while I am teching to the different spaceship parts.

Let's revisit the 1T techs:

Feud
Guilds
Banking
Economics
Nationalism
Constitution
Corporation
Construction
Engineering
Democracy
Aesthetics
Drama
Gunpowder
Chemistry
Replaceable Parts
Steam Power
Steel
Bio
Lit
Music
Physics
Rifling
Artillery

I know Rifling and Artillery will be 1 turn each... but that's 23. I don't think I can get 24 on Rocketry, Assembly Line, Electricity or Railroad. If I really wanted to I probably should have set a ton of wealth builds and ran 100% science the last 3 turns. As it is if I want 24 I may have to go back to Theology. I'll think about it. Any way you slice it, its been pretty awesome. The techs I've been 1Turning are pretty advanced, and cost a lot.

Demos:



Yay for top GNP with two opponents in GAs.


[SIZE="5"]T180:[/SIZE]



Physics in and the GS popped.

I have gotten my quota of Qs!



65 is enough.

Demos:



GNP keeps increasing.


[SIZE="5"]T181:[/SIZE]

One of the reasons that it keeps increasing is that all my cities are growing like weeds. Take a look at this one:



The trade routes are pretty much +2 everywhere in most cities now. As the populations go up thanks to Bio, I get better bonuses. You can also see how this city is mostly Workshops now and man they are awesome.

Here are a couple overview shots of the civ too from south to north:





I tried to show how awesome a lot of the tiles are now with towns and incoming Levees.

Demos:



Still ahead! Though Scooter switched into US and Emancipation this turn and Cyneheard is teching Communism now. I expect Cyne will finish communism and switch into SP on the last turn of his GA.

The question is when do I pop my 3rd GA? Do I wait until I'm ready to start building the Spaceship parts? Or do I start it as soon as possible to speed my teching through to the Spaceship parts while building the Apollo program? I think the latter will probably be better considering I will have plenty of good production cities for the spaceship parts by the time I reach them thanks to levees.

The question then is do I switch out of OR into Free Religion to speed the last bit of teching? I don't believe the Apollo Program or the spaceship parts get the OR bonus, correct?

[NobleHelium]

Apollo and spaceship parts are projects, not buildings.

[Lewwyn]

Apollo and spaceship parts are projects, not buildings.

Yup, 'tis what I thought. Maybe I will switch to Free Religion then. I'll think about it.

[SIZE="5"]T182:[/SIZE]

Artillery came in. I set tech to Rocketry and it looks like it will take 2 turns.
Great Priest came in though:



I believe I will start my GA the turn that I start the Apollo program. This way I'll max my hammers on Wall Street and Apollo during the GA and max teching to all the spaceship technologies too.

Demos:



Cyne finally was able to get ahead in GNP for the first time during his GA. He'll be switching to SP next turn I think. That'll give him another boost. I'm about to start building wealth only though. Everything's out the window at that point.
