	Settler from Bloodview Inflate your Upload Space

We have a couple of priorities for settling at the moment. This is not a simple vote and forget thread. I invite the entire Horde to discuss the issues regardless of whether they choose one of the options I propose or suggest something completely different.


1) Consolidation city at 3-3-6 from Filiolus Ala.
2) Outpost city for future invasion of Babylon and also for the establishment of incense monopoly at 3-3-2-2 from The Furnace.
3) Outpost city near the DR land as base of operations for our Army Group East and city to upgrade our units in. The proposed locations for this city are 3-3-6-3 from Nirvana or 3-3-2 from Nirvana. The first location offers better terrain for defence and supply of another luxury.


Among these undeniable priorities, the Horde should choose the top priority which will be settled by our settler from Bloodview asap. The settler will be available in about 5 turns. I think that the option listed under 3) is the foremost priority because I don't think our Army Group East has the strength to capture any DR city save perhaps Invictus.

I agree that the DR outpost city could possibly wait for the next settler. To serve as an upgrade outpost, it would require barracks which can be built in 12 turns from it's founding. To get there and build a city a settler from Bloodview needs 7 turns. That's 19 turns to barracks. We probably won't have feudalism in less than 25 turns and chivalry would require some 20 turns more, so true, this outpost can wait for the next settler built in Bloodview.

I would still prefer we built it sooner since the Bards are already sending settlers to the area. By the time we decide to send one, there will probably be no land left for us to settle there.

	Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

By the way, I see 4 votes and only 3 people posting about the issue. Every opinion counts. All ideas are valuable. I would like to hear from the other anonymous voter please.

Consolidate, if the others settle the midland, we take it with force.

I too vote consolidation at this time

My opinions on this have been discussed elsewhere

basically: keep it close and keep it.

Consolidation has merit. Building a forward base camp does too.

	Full PM-box? Change here!

Another of my concerns is that we build a city near DR and then are stuck defending it for some time... time after we have left the area...

To 3-3-6 from Filolus Ala. The settler can get there fastest and we need to consolidate our territory.
