	Early game and strategy Support Apolyton or Terrorists Win

We should discuss about what we'd like to do early in the game. Micromanagement is, of course, a must and I will do my best to get the most out of our start.

But at a short/medium term, what would you like to do? Any plans based on what we see?

This is the place to discuss it...

I'd like to turn our capital into a settler pump. I think we have the tiles to make it pretty effective. I say we should build another city fairly close (9-9?) and use it as a units production center. While producing units for scouting and defense matters, our capital should build a granary (after we discover BW?).

Of course, all of this is matter of discussion and should/will change depending on what we find hidden behind the black...

	Put an end to popups!

I cant view ur image, so If I can get the sav so I can determine early strat thatd be helpful.

Without knowing anything about start position, I'd strongly push for Borg/settler rushing strategy. And if we can get one agriculturally strong city and create a granary (if we can afford it) it would be sweet.

Other than that it should be settler, warrior, n.m (once we get it)settler etc...

	Suffering from ads?

Kon - I suspect our warrior will reveal the next city site.

I also suspect we have limited land south of us - maybe space for two cities at most.

Our start is good, and has a 3-food tile - so I would advocate for an early granary to pump out workers and settlers.

But let's let the warrior do some exploring.

Of course, we must be wary of our tech needs.

Before we get to build a grainery, we need pottery.

Unless we start with the CoD team (English) then we wont be able to trade for it.
And if we do start with CoD close by, their scouts will gobble up all the goodie huts.

We must cross our fingers and hope we get pottery from a goodie hut, research Pottery ourselves, or hope some other team reseaches it, and we can trade.

But I do agree, we need a settler pump.
Lets see whats around us first... there maybe cows & wheat tiles close by.

	Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

Well, I agree, Primate Central should be our industrial center (not as far as defiling the sacred wilderness, but as in pumping out settler monkeys and warrior orangutans and gorillas).

As for that warrior, you chaps need something better than a chimp right now. How about some Orangutans?
