[Spoilers] Old Harry's Game

But now we're getting into the mid-game where there are a lot more options and I suspect experience matters a lot more. Obviously the only way to get experience is to play and see what happens, so I'm looking forward to seeing how long before Catephracts arrive!

I'm away over the next week, so will be playing on a crappy laptop without much time, if I survive that I hope to start planning properly again...

Serdoa offered cease fire. I think I'd rather do something with my army, but maybe monarchy can be that thing?

Darlington is resettled and copper re-hooked:


Question: I put a few hammers into a warrior forgetting I already had some in the spear that didn't complete two turns ago. They are both in the queue - what happens next turn when the warrior turns into a spear?


I have a feeling that if another attack is coming Ipswich could be the target, so I've got a mini-stack here out of sight. I'd want to get a peace treaty if I'm going to build this work boat.


I don't think my stack can do anything much while Zerg forces are arrayed like this - 7 HA on one hill and six on the other.


So I'll offer peace.


Finally, look where Azza planted MOM. Good choice when it looked like I was about to get eliminated. Not so hot now that I've got a bunch of axes sitting around with nothing to do...

The two builds collapse into one, and you lose the hammers in one of the builds. frown
I have to run.

so just whichever one has less hammers into it will dissappear? they should combine the hammers from the two frown

I'm not sure which one disappears - I would guess that's based on order in the build queue and not hammers invested. Easy enough to test.

Peace in our time! (until turn 104 - Serdoa is first in turn order, so I assume he can attack first - is that right?)


So the really important question - which set of hammers did I get in Exeter - was it the warrior (7 hammers) or spear (6 hammers)? There are now two spears in the queue, with 7 hammers in. So it either went for the largest number or the one uppermost in the queue. That doesn't help does it?


I'm going to settle two more cities very quickly. Altrincham 2 and Halifax 2. Then I'm debating settling for gold on Serdoa's border. I think we've seen that it's not a terribly secure border, but, y'know, gold! Maybe 1s of the pig or 1n of the gold? I'll leave it on the back burner for now. I also cancelled Hydra's generous gift of horse for crab - this is the main reason I survived Serdoa's attack.


Tech path - Iron working gets me silver, sugar and possibly iron. After that I think COL, after that I've no idea...
