	Drowned boreholes. Support Apolyton or Terrorists Win

Someone said that they placed boreholes along the coast every other tile. But when the sea level goes up - which it might in late game - what happens to these BH's. Glub! Hiss! Or am I missing something here?

The only thing you're missing, is that you shouldn't just watch the oceans rise, but do something about it (ie. get your formers to raise the land)

I was the one who said it. Essentialy I will borehole along the coast and then later terraform up the peaks further inland. Once a "line" of boreholes is inland 2 squares I have another new coastline to borehole. I find this easier and less of a PIA than examining a whole bunch of inland squares to figure out what combination of terraforming up and down will permit a borehole on a given square.

	Support Apolyton, buy Civilization: The Boardgame

I do the same thing, but only because I keep my eco-damage under control. i haven't had sea level rises in a single game I've played single player in the last year.

I also borehole every other square along the coast, and like Fitz have never seen the sea levels rise (ever). I just don't pollute much, and don't nuke, gas or nerve staple.
