[spoilers] Let's Play Civilization 4.5: Realms Beyond the Sword

[Commodore]

Lots of commerce, but we could use more food. We're delaying warriors until barb warriors appear?

Yeah, no need of them yet, particularly given how little exposure city #2 (now sheep/silver/FURS) has.

I was going to see if copper made city #2 easier, but the copper plan now is...um, archers and keshiks. Screw you too, copper.


I don't know that it's a good thing, but the settler build definitely takes advantage of our techs and traits. Whipping next turn, granary gotta pull its weight.

We need a new theme. On this stupid stupid map where we settle twenty+ cities before even meeting a neighbor, Svalbard doesn't have nearly enough settlements.

Jan Mayen?

Jan Mayen?

I'm a low-latitude hyper-isolated nothing island with tons and tons of sheep. 

This is Old Zealand. All sheep are mine, and I'm slightly paranoid that the mapmaker actually just made a bunch of maps with only one civ on each.

[Brian Shanahan]

Them's not sheep, them's polar bears. And if Paradox has taught me anything, it's that polar bears are overpowered.

Nah, you're actually in a duel with Lord Parkin.

Which city comes next?

I would also really petition for Alexander Hamil's Town but, you know, character limits.

Horse city, of course.

The New Zealand Hamilton is named after a different Hamilton, a British sea captain. Sorry, not the aristocratic Scotsman turned hip hop icon.

[Commodore]

Well nuts.

Horses not in a good spot?

Horses in a very far spot. :-(
