	How to build the Spanish empire. Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

Olá Señores del Sol !

I call upon you for a survey and I request your opinion.
It's very important now to establish our position in this world.
I will leave you for some weeks now, so we can summarize and tell our great despot what we patriots feel then.
First we can all vote and discuss...


How would you like us to succeed?



NB:
I just thought it was to few polls here nowadays,
so I just went to the market and called together a crowd.
But where is the crowd?

	Full PM-box? Change here!

#2 & 5. Lets (depending on location) let city #3 or 4 start a wonder. Pyramids anyone?

I said 3 and 5. We have to let the warlike civs know we won't be pushed around. And yes to Pyramids!

I think we have to use persuasion (or threats) when
foreign settlers are starting to move southwars into
our recent explorations. Put out the guards so we can
see them before they settle down.

Ok, Pyramids are fine to begin with.

If you vote 3 you should also vote 4 as without the might to back you up, what will you do when someone calles your bluff?

I am sorry but I cant answer. I think we must be flexible and that applying a rigid strategy when we have not achieved an overwhelming dominance is not the good way. I must add that our dominance , if we achieve it, should not appear prematurely. We must hide our strenght, and we are already #3.

I prefer wait too. Only as a suggestion, I'd choose #3 & 4 & 5.

As I've yet said, I would like to build The Lighthouse in our city #3. This will allow us to sail better and strenghten our commercial trait and our roleplay purposes.

But, certainly, the pyramids we'll be interesting too.

I agree totally with GodKing. However GodKing, there is nothing wrong with bluffing, but we should carefully decide agains who we'll bluff.

I think we should cultivate the tech research project with GoW and Lux. We should do everything possible to keep the other 3 civ's attention and settlement to the north and attempt to claim the entire south for ourselves.

It appears that more than a large amount of the luxuries are down here and controling those could make us the one civ nobody wants to be on the bad side of.

I disagree

If we are threatened, sure, we must stand up for ourselves, but we cannot impose our will on others, especially when the great Togas has deemed diplomacy our road to success
