	Turn 182 Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

COPERNICUS!! in Hurricane. Starts Bank.

BB completes Bank, starts Library
Diss builds CH, starts Mkt
Tornado builds CH, start University
Whirlwind build Library, start Mkt?

We now have 480bpt at 70% Science, +5 gpt, for team Power in 4 turns. 292g on hand.

Newton and Sufa's lib next turn will take us to about 510bpt, with 3 more libs to come in the core.

As far as city plans go - there's not much to say about specific cities other than :

Cyclone : 2 turn worker pump +5fpt +5spt
SS : 3 turn worker pump - MM between desert and mountains

Blizzard - when it completes the harbor it can use the sea, setting Santa Ana grow a bit.

WW - sacrificed Aqua for Arashi. Could still do aqua if we have coal.

EotS, at -1fpt but getting 20spt for now. Needs switching to HG soon.

Everything else is up for grabs. All my plans went as far as getting 480bpt, which has arrived and will be exceeded next turn. Time for some fresh thinking. All yours, DeepO, and many thanks to you and Sleepy for stepping onto the footplate at this time!

Thanks CH. It has been an excellent run

I'll send an e-mail to Vondrack that he sends me the save as well, but in the mean time, could you forward the last one to me so that I can get a feeling?

If I ever have enough time, I'll try to come up with some kind of strategic plan. I'll need it to prioritize RRing...

Good job.

Both sci wonders. Who woulda thunk it?

We are in a great position. Impregnable for 25 turns at least, ahead in tech of the nearest competitor by at least 6 turns still, unclear due to their golden age.



The game is in DeepO's hands now, I think he will do a great job.

Cheers CH on your excellent work You filled a huge vacuum on this team, I have no doubt that we would be much worse off had you not joined us.

It's a beautiful thing. Even if we don't win this thing, we will have had a damn good run.

Many thanks to Cort Haus, who is also is the main turn player for team Cake or Death (ptwdgII) by the way, for his excellent leadership and play since taking over. Also kudos to DeepO for stepping up to take over for our next phase.

I will try to stay relatively active and help out with planning and whatnot.

I made a public forum post about the completion of Copernicus. I hope you guys don't mind. I did my best at making it light and fun (creative writing is *not* my strongpoint). Apologies to Theseus, who I cast in a rather reactionary light as the Cardinal of Hurricane.

Very good prose, Arrian. You should have a hoot writing the Dr. SleepyNewton comes to the rescue of A. Copernicus.

CH, here, have a beer.
