[spoilers] Pindicator and Regoarrarr - Bismark of Ethiopia

[regoarrarr]

This could be a good thing!





Could very well be a fake war for WB scouting ability, but bears some watching

Aha! - Azza's score went up 5 points this turn, so I bet that he took that barb city where Krill's chariots were, and Krill declared on him to take it.

[regoarrarr]

Yup - I scrolled up and Krill's chariots were on the tile 1E of our scout, and are no longer there, nor can we see the outlines of the barb city.

I will see what Turd Ferguson, intrepid news reporter, can find out later

[pindicator]

Doing a little poking around in the save. I noticed we can turn science on and get Mono in 3 turns; what's the strategy behind saving gold further here?

[regoarrarr]

Well my thought was that we don't really NEED Mono till we get our GP. So in that line might as well save gold.

[regoarrarr]

Look I found our horses!!!

I've also put in Krill's borders as we've seen them with our exploring TF. We're going to need to push further east here or Krill is going to cut us off.

I'm a little intrigued by the shape of the land. I think the eastern section (where our scout and Azza's warrior are hanging out) is not connected to the rice / ivory choke.

Do we put a city say on the hill SE of the plains cows? In looking at the size of this continent, I gotta figure there's another civ to our east.

Commodore's power is going back up - we probably need to get some more units up and about before too long. Oh, and some more settlers. Oh and Iron Working to chop out this jungle. Oh and enough beakers to limp to Currency. Oh and.....

[regoarrarr]

Whaddaya think about this for a plan - we send that Turd Ferguson axe that we were sending to CPH down towards that choke.

Last I checked Azza had a warrior hanging out there. He has no horse at this point (sound familiar? ), so a few axes on a hill might be enough to hold that city if he gets frisky.

We use Eddie Murphy (who just finished his chop this turn into CPH's granary) to road that way / towards that Krill blocker city.

Then somehow with 10 cities all across the globe we manage to research Math AND Currency

The other good news of this turn is that our eastern most Sean Connery found another landmass to the east so circumnav is not ruled out just yet

[regoarrarr]

Hmmmmmmmmm...



If we found there we have a spearman in the city. It will still be decent odds if he tries to attack (He's C1, but we should have 5% fortification bonus and be on a hill, so I think I'm calculating 27% odds for him).

He does have copper and horse, and his power is (slightly) ahead of ours.

I'm tempted to just plomp it there anyways. We can have an axe from Coneheads (and worker or maybe other military unit?) in the city on T103. But do we really want to tick off ANOTHER neighbor?

BTW Krill took that former barb city off of Azza this turn

[pindicator]

But do we really get to tick off ANOTHER neighbor?

Fixed that for you

[regoarrarr]

get on chat ya bum

[regoarrarr]

Yuri's already got a city in the area....



He is NOT going to like this. On the other hand, what else do we do...
