I just want... WAR!!!!

There's nothing in the MDP preventing us from attacking Dave or Shoot.

Machine guns and frigates.... ATTACK!!!

I played T139 and tried on some new civics.







Researched communism at end of turn, so I guess we'll try State property next turn.

Do you have any workshops?

Hardly any last time I saw the save, but we plan to bulldoze a few farms I think.

Spaceman, feel free to grab the turn and reacquaint yourself with the game. Otherwise I'll grab it tonight.

[novice]

Got it.

[spacemanmf]

Nice one. Sorry, been busy and didn't want to go in cold. I'll get up to speed at some point.

So that was turn 140 I played earlier, 1500 AD. I suppose that warrants a few pictures.

The case for state property is not clear - our GNP dropped by 50 due to lost trade routes, whereas production and food increased slightly. SP will come in handy later on, but at the moment research is king. I offered OB to Shoot in an attempt to make Free Market a more clear-cut best choice.

I think the real question is whether to use Free Religion or Pacifism. I'm leaning towards Pacifism, as a GSci can bulb 1500 beakers.

The sign says Rifling->Flight as our tech path, but I queued Rifling->Refrigeration->Superconductors to get Laboratories going. Refrigeration is technically a non-space tech, but T-Hawk says the earlier Labs pays back the cost and then some.

We finished Broadway this turn, I think Eiffel Tower is next in our capital. Cash Cow will finish Ironworks next turn.

This was not a good turn for Rego. He gifted us a great scientist, but he lost two cities. Oh and as usual I forgot to gift him any gold. I plan to gift him Hit Musicals next turn, at least.

Darrell's GNP has passed 3000, as you can see. He just started a golden age. Us keeping up is pretty impressive, although we're at max sci and he's not. Here are some screenshots from our more specialist-oriented cities.

Just having a look at the save now. I noticed you're started a bank in Gold Rush. Still keeping the infrastructure going, eh? And quite a lot of universities. Some won't be done before we would ever launch at the current rate... =)

How many more workshops are you planning to lay down?
