Nothing like the Prodigal Sons: The Odd Couple actually play as themselves.

So Krill did his own tier list because he's Krill, and while I think it sucks, I wouldn't want to leave our esteemed dedlurkers with any doubts that they're missing out by staying in our far cooler and more interesting thread.

Without further ado, Krilltiers:

Thoth made me post it,

Couple of notes:

1) The list was edited before it was sent to you.


2) Krill didn't actually post the list and I certainly didn't make him post it. I made an obvious attempt to troll him into posting it so he PMed me the list and dared me to post it in his thread. So I did.

Shameless attempt to keep his thread competitive in the post count war.

Krill's list (edited or not) is clearly far superior to Gaspar's.

It goes up to 11.

OK Thoth, go on and post the YouTube video already.

[Thoth]

What? The whole movie?

I'm guessing I was t6.5 on the original list.

THATS IT KRILL IS OFFICIALLY DEMOTED TO TIER LEAD BOOTS

I knew he was no better than me.

Based on my sandbox, I think we need to road the ivory before starting the cottage on the FP to get the second city settled on T37. Here's what I get starting the cottage immediately after finishing the ivory camp:




Note that after putting the road on the hill that I road the ivory rather than the FP. It costs the same number of worker turns (3), but with the obvious benefit of raising the happy cap. I could have put the road on the hill, cottage FP, and the plains forest 1S of city #2 (for a future chop), but we are still short a worker turn this way according to the sandbox. I hope I'm not off by a turn from the real game or this is going to be very annoying.

Here is what I get after finishing the ivory road and then beginning the FP cottage:




There is just enough time to get everything done, finishing the third turn on the desert road the turn that the settler is in transit. Serdoa annoyingly put that desert tile in the way (requiring an extra turn of worker labor to complete the road) so we would have to give up two cottage turns [lost count of the complaint number] to get the city connected to a trade network. We get the commerce back by having 2g in trade routes when the city founds.

Also, I suggest that we run a turn at 0% prior to founding the city so we can be at 100% science when our output is greater with the second city online. I haven't looked into that in depth, but we'll be -1g/t once #2 is online. Better IMO to take the cash savings before it founds.

Also, it is certainly better to begin a worker after the settler, I didn't bother managing the build when running this sim.
