Pbem 9 Peter of Inca

I'm guessing your next city goes on the jungle north of the cows.

At the moment I would agree that a wonder needs to be pretty darn good to delay those settlers.

A short update , I was first to 4 cities , i built 1 axe hopping to be first in south and raze the barbarian city wich apeared near kodii's borders, i will like to keep it, but then tensions will apear so full speed ahead my dear axeman.

My home plans are to build the 5TH city RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE of te map getting with it a lot of resources. Research wise i have 4 more turns to finish matematics and after that i want to go straight for calendar.WHY? The answer is very simple i have like a ton of calendar resuorces, few of the will be in the central city (having like dye onn floodplains-better tha a mature cotage..).

Diplomacy: Perhaps you allready found i have a NAP until turn 100 with Sylon, and again until 100 with kodii, and just 20 turns with Pegasus.Every one of this has a 10 turn cool down period, any of the lurkers can explain to me what that means, because i was ashamed to ask, and i just accepted.

Buildings in cities: Every city has a terace and the capitol already has a library( I am very courious haw many of the others already have a granary or more), Thats the beauty ti play with inca you are forced to buil them.

And in the end 2 pictures with the great empire in turn 68

I haven't played much multiplayer in Civ, but in other games NAPs are often accompanied by a certain grace-period (or cooldown). What this means is that if either of the players wish to cancel the NAP, he has to give a warning to his opponent beforehand. In your case it appears this warning has to come 10 turns in advance, allowing the other player time to make arrangements or even prepare for a possible war.

I also have a small question: How many workers do you currently possess? In the screenshot I could only see two.

[mackoti]

Tank you for your answers, i have a total of 5 workers,and my cities are working almost just improved tiles, 2 are under quechea, and another one is just finished in Timisisoara and will go to mine along with the one near Arad.
AS you can see i have a litle problem with happines in one of the cities(dam to much whiping).
In 3 turns i wil have 6 workers, and in another 3, 7.

[Tredje]

Ok, sounds like you will be covered on the worker's front then. The reason I asked was that I saw all the forests surrounding your capital, which is building the pyramids, and I wondered if you were going to chop it out as fast as possible.

[mackoti]

ye, i will cut some of those but ill keep 3 of them because i will try to land great library too( i have marble not conected yet( first to build a city there), but i do heve time.
I was thinking to rush a setler there and to build oracle(seems no one is trying),at least usualy is finished by now...every is expanding ...I was thinking alot about the mids if is worth or not, but there is alot of food in may part of he island so i said yes, even tought great lighouse is better i think(but than like in othet games people will refuse to open borders), and i think someone else already started on building it), so will cost me to much to loose it.

So i will setlle for teh mids and using food i want to generate a lot of research.

Happines is not a problem if i'll be first in the center.

[mackoti]

Well, i will do a larger update later, for now is turn 71,and in the midle situation gets very complicated.
I realy dont like how thw things developed,Ye kodi got GL an he wil get a free city and money in 2 turns. I was staying and thinking what i could do about that.., my axe is there like 2 turn later, i should have skip a worker and build an axe first, so i can raze that city.
On the other side Sylon just build a city wich i could raze easy, i have like speraman, axeman, and in another turn another axe in that are with him only having i think 2 chariots and a warior, but i have a NAP with him and dont broke those, and second i don't see him for now such a big threat(and i realy want to ally with him).His city is very far away from his core,but kodii's are very close.

And a think wich i don't like about KOdii is that he did'n't want open borders until now, perhaps for now one i dont want of those.
Have a nice day,
Mack

Today i have a few time to waste(playing civ is never wa waste..), so i will do the turn 75 update.
You know from other threads whats the situation but you perhaps to find some of my toghts abot the game.
The situation is very tense at least for me , I am looking for people to ally with, but seem very hard, I was trying with Sylon but he is not responding to my questions, He is just trying to put me o settle in other places, that one didn't work.
As you know there was a war between pegasus and Kodii,and i was thinking to ally my self with pegasuu, you may ask why thats very easy to answer: Kodii got a free barbarian city at pop 3, that means at least 60 gold( ye i tested in worldbuilder), free setler, and more than that its the best city wich i know until now on the map.
I have a Nap with him wich i will respect, but after that i hope i can persuade pegasus( he isn''t very chaty with me), to dont open borders with him(for sure i will not do that), and latter on to work a plan between us.
How you will see in screenshots, my capitol is working in pyramids i think i will finish that in like 10 turns(ye some math, stone powered chops).
The other city are on military , workers, setlers.Short plan: geting out 2 more setlers, build 3 libraries, hire some scientist.
Research, after calendar wich will net me 3 happines, and a lot of comerce, i was thinking to go for curency, and after that,HBR,construction, metalcasting, you get it towards knigs.
Here are some screenhots(can someone teach how to write before the screenshots and after):

[mackoti]

Seems that my way of writing things is not very entertaing for lurkers(ye no coments), anyway a short update :
2 more turns until finish the piramids after that revolt to reprezentation wich is a big boon for me I have 1 library i will build 2 more usig whip , hire 2 scientist in all that cities wil grand me 45 science+ 20 or 25 wich i get from comerce will get me 70 beakers per turn wich i think is ok for now

i have s setler for the sheep, clam, marble spot in 2 turns, and another 1 is already whiped in REsita and will go in the central are to help fighting the culture batle with kodii so in 5 turn i will have 7 cities(not that bad i think).

2 more turns until i finish calendar , wich will alow me to hook up: Dye,incense and spices, and later some sugar fron the north island.

My biggest concern is diplomacy as i didn't have any real allies ., i was trying with Sylon but he is so evaziv in his answers that i dont knot what to belive, after seeing was a war between Pegasus and Kodii i tryed to make Pegasus an ally ( i am realy sincer), but seems he does't want to commit to nothing.
Well Ruff is to far away, and kodii is the main danger to win the game(and if i propose him a aliance between us i will have to open borders, wich i dont want).

In concluzion my empire is very good economicly speaking( first in gnp, MFG, and second in crop ), but diplomaticaly i feel isolated, perhaps they speak between them self to just share my land.
Wiil see.
No screenshots because the empire is rely looking the same like last time,jus some cities grown a litle bit other just got whiped.
Have a good day, my few lurkers,
Macedon

I'm lurking and I enjoy your updates - I just don't have many questions. Good job so far! Normally I'd say the Pyramids are a sucker's build, but with lots of food and a Phi leader it could make sense. Did you have stone?
