So we aren't charged 2g unit supply for the 2t extra we'll have a missionary unit?

[regoarrarr]

Okay played the turn. I ended turn even though I didn't mean to

I swapped BB over to research. Our immense 47bpt will power through Iron Working in 4t (maybe even 3t if we micro)

After IW, we can discuss whether we want to start building more units while we wait for our GP or just start going on Currency like you said. I think that it probably makes sense at least to start up the AP again in BB. I do think that we should build Research in BB to finish IW so that we can give our workers something to do. We're running out of things to build on the mainland

47bpt never looked so good

That's at 0% science right? So we're also making like 8gpt on the side?

Yup that's right. I believe it is 6 gpt. We could make that better by taking some people off grass mines and on to cottages or coast.

Hopefully another 4gpt this turn once OB are signed (I offered them to Nakor and Commodore, though I'm not 100% sure we'll get trade routes with Nakor). Plus 20-30gpt once we limp our way to Currency.

Nakor played and we got OB with him but it didn't affect anything. Still have 4 2c trade routes. We really need Commosan (or Cyneheard or Yuri)

This reminds me: Azza is curently scouting our lands with an axe. Do we want to return the favor and send a chariot or missionary south through his territory?

Yeah we should do that. Or we could close borders. We're currently not getting any TRs with him. We could close them and then open them again to boot his axe out

I want to keep things peaceful with Azza if we can, and something like closing Open Borders might make him think we're turning a cold shoulder to him. Much better, IMO, to have his attention and energy directed towards Krill while he thinks we're friendly.

Almost said we should propose to swap maps with him, but no - that is a bad idea. If he doesn't know about the islands to his west and our south then no reason to show them to him until after we have a good grip on them.

Well my thought was just to close and then re-offer them. Kind of telling him hey this is OB with no scouting allowed. But I'm fine with just keeping them also
