Looking at the first post-FP gamesave, it looks like the following cities improved:

Logville 1 shield/1 waste to 4 shields/1 waste - commerce 4 arrows/12 corruption to 15 arrows/3 corruption

Tarzania 4s/3w to 5s/2w - no change in arrows/corruption

Ahhmyfoot 1s/1w to 2s/0w - 1 arrow/4 corr to 4 arrow/1 corr

Crossing no change in shields still 1s/0c but 1 arrow/3 corr to 3 arrows/1 corr

Zargonia - 5s/5w to 10s/3w and 6 arrows/6 corr to 10 arrows/4 corr

Forkmouth seems to show a small decrease in corruption was 7s/5w now 10s/6w, was 10arrows/6 corr now 15 arrows/8 corr

Farmerville (harder to tell with the pop decrease) was 6 s/3w now 6s/3w, was 17 arrows/10 corr now 11 arrows/6 corr

and of course Karina was 11s/7w now 18s/0w, was 11 arrows/7 corr now 18 arrows/0 corr

Agreed. 2 less commerce, but speeds settler by 2 turns. Worth it in my opinion.

quote: Ahhmyfoot Move worker to mined bonus grassland

Agreed

quote: Zargonia Move worker from mined-rd hill to NW-W rd grassland

Yup. Caravel still in 2, and squeeze in some extra food.

OK, additions from me:

I. Tarzania to move labourers from coasts to the mined hills SE & NE of the city. After 2 turns, we move one of them to the roaded grass and do a merc in 4, saving as much food as possible.

II. Agreed about Ken roading.

III. Agreed about Michael roading.

IV. Zargonia labourer from a mined/roaded hill and roaded grass to coasts (coast is more commerce than roaded grass)

V. Agreed with Ahhmyfoot working the bonus grass instead of the irrigated plains. We have got beakers just enough to do Gunpowder in 5t, so we can emphasize shields over commerce.

VI. Agreed with Logville labourer from roaded grass to the unimproved bonus grass.

VII. Agreed with R.B. labourer from W-SW to S-SE.

I am going to incorporate the changes into the turn plan and suggest that Zargon plays the turn when he's able to (or just tell me if and when I should play it).

AND, gentlemen, I am proud to inform you that we are now breathing on the GS neck! At least in Mfg. Goods.

Their Mfg. Goods is 150, only 11 more than our "standard" Mfg. Goods of 139 (we are able to get up to about 163, IIRC - by maxxing out our shield outputs ad absurdum).

11 more spt is just a couple of more pop points. I hope we surpass GS in the shield production within ~10 turns.

As for commerce... even by maxxing out our output to 333 million, we are still #2. Though - I would not worry about this too much, as shields should me more important than commerce in the near future.

And productivity: even at 432 (our artificial maximum), we are still #2.

26) new Jackson labourer to work unimproved hill
not sure about this - Kloreep? shall we work this or the desert for max shield output and decent commerce? Or coast for max commerce? or grass for max growth? it's too late in here and my brain is already half-asleep...

quote: 9) Freddie to fortify in Quanto 10) Quantic to found Quanto Mechanico work cattle, start building worker (? or temple?)

Err I am guessing you mean work wheat... as for what to start building - worker might be ok. I doubt temple will be needed as its max population without irrigation may not be high enough to need it (especially with luxuries).

As for border expansion to reach the horse, I wonder if we could found a temporary camp city on the hill or the desert near the horse and use it to expand the borders. When we get Electricity we can disband the camp for additional workers. A camp city working a mined hill and a forest (or a mined plains) should produce a fairly decent 6 shields per turn (before corruption) at a max of size 2.

quote: 24) Bill or Frank Jr. to move S-SW-W, then NW and irrigate preparing the radius for Oasis, which I believe should be our next city (will grow fast, can use one of the Zargonia mined hills).

I am not sure about Oasis yet, but I will leave that for the team to decide - if we do decide to found Oasis I would not use the original spot from the Master Builder thread which was directly north of the iron hill. Instead I would build it on the dark spot desert NW of the original spot. That would give us an extra rivered forest that otherwise wouldn't fall into any city's area.

I am assuming that the Logville settler is being sent down to form another of our southern cities?

Save already with us... just going through it.

quote: Originally posted by Sharpe Err I am guessing you mean work wheat... as for what to start building - worker might be ok. I doubt temple will be needed as its max population without irrigation may not be high enough to need it (especially with luxuries).

Yeah, wheat, that's it, dunno what I was thinking...

However... looking at the save: Quanto generates 2spt and would finish the worker too fast, so we need to do something else before. I would really consider a temple - because we will NOT be able to use the luxuries to keep the pop happy there... Quanto is supposed be DISconnected from our road network (read: will have no luxuries) in order to build cheap upgradable horse-based units. So, we will need a temple to be able to go to pop 6 there...

Plus, with the radius expansion we would grab one bonus grass, three coasts, and those horses without the need to sacrifice any workers or settlers...

quote: Originally posted by Sharpe I am not sure about Oasis yet, but I will leave that for the team to decide - if we do decide to found Oasis I would not use the original spot from the Master Builder thread which was directly north of the iron hill. Instead I would build it on the dark spot desert NW of the original spot. That would give us an extra rivered forest that otherwise wouldn't fall into any city's area.

Well... first: out of all the unsettled city sites, Oasis will have the fastest growth (thanks to those floodplains). That's why I would go for it - besides, with the rate we are currently bulding settlers, all the remaining sites shall be settled fairly early anyway.

Now, as for the location. I admit that I was not sure myself - both locations, the original one and the one Steve suggested, had their advantages. So I made some boring analysis.

original location:
12 deserts
3 grasses
1 mountain
2 hills
1 iron hill
1 floodplains

location North-West:
11 deserts
4 grasses (one created by chopping forest)
1 mountain
1 hill
1 iron hill
1 floodplains
1 lake

So, basically, we would be trading 1 desert and 1 hill for 1 grassland (made from forest) and 1 lake + 10 shields (from the forest chop).

Pre-railroads, that's (1+1)F/(1+3)S or (0+1)F/(2+3)S for (3+2)F/(0+0)S or (2+2)F/(1+0)S and 10 shields. We lose 4S for the gain of 3F. The 3 extra food allow working three irrigated deserts (3 shields). We sacrifice 1 shield for at least 6gpt, which is a good deal, as 1 shield costs 4 gold for the purpose of gold-rushing. And... a bonus of 10 chopped shields.

Post-railroads, the situation is a bit more complicated. We trade (2+1)F/(1+4)S or (0+1)F/(3+4)S for (4+2)F/(0+0)S or (2+2)F/(2+0)S and 10 shields. Without going into the details - the result is similar to pre-RR, we get (much) more commerce, effectively not only recuperating the lost shields, but even making some small extra profit.

So - yes, let's go for the location NW of the originally planned one.

quote: Originally posted by Sharpe I am assuming that the Logville settler is being sent down to form another of our southern cities?

Yes, that's what I assume, too. Horsefish, probably (the city to the West of Tiberium). We will need a garrison, though - most probably using the Karina garrison, leaving Karina undefended for a moment.

quote: However... looking at the save: Quanto generates 2spt and would finish the worker too fast, so we need to do something else before. I would really consider a temple - because we will NOT be able to use the luxuries to keep the pop happy there...

True, I had forgotten about the unconnection of Quanto - so probably a temple might be best. I would still consider the camp city as well - military units still won't be so expensive that a size 2 4-6 shield city can't be useful (though I would see what the corruption level in Quanto will be as I admit I was a bit surprised by the 50% corruption in Tiberium - thought it would be lower than that.

As for the Logville settler, I was debating between Horsefish and Abilene. Abilene would grow faster with the cattle (eventually), but would be more corrupt. Horsefish would add another horse to our stock - though I don't know if it would need the borders to expand to get it. I initially favoured Abilene due to the cattle and bonus grasslands, but the corruption worries me a bit now.

Nice analysis for the Oasis situation btw. I also wonder if we could build another camp city on the desert square east of the iron hill, but it would need to borrow that grassland square from Karina and convert it to irrigation. That way we would get the two hills that wouldn't have been included in any city radius as well.

Re: Logville settler, no strong opinion here. I prefer Abilene, but Horsefish would be easier for the barb defense net.

I agree with moving the Oasis site. Nice analysis.

My suggestions for 190 AD:

Jinxo road
Forrest clear jungle
Charlie E-E and irrigate
Peter irrigate
George clear
Gus S and clear
Stanley N-W and clear
Ken W-NW and help clear
Jimbo N and mine
Bill SE-S-S and mine
Frank Jr. NW and irrigate (preparing Oasis)
Farmer NW-N
Mark W and mine & road (Merc in Ahhmyfoot should be able to protect him?)
Fritz to stop clearing forest, then start again: As is, Fritz will waste the 10 shield chop on the finished Cathedral (worker moves are done first), but if he delays a turn, he can help with the next build.

Farmerville to work one floodplain, mined desert, mined river grass, and the forest
Zargonia: Two coast citizens move to improved hill and mined grass
Dye Fields: Hill citizen move to mined grass
Logville: unimproved bonus grass citizen move to Luke's hill
Kloreepville: citizens on the two irrigated grasses and the improved hills (should only have to move the bonus grass worker to a hill). We can move back to the bonus grass to get some food after this.

This turn, we differ in suggestions more than is usual, so I will go through the points that I believe would be better to do different from what you suggest, Kloreep:

quote: Originally posted by Kloreep Stanley N-W and clear Ken W-NW and help clear Jimbo N and mine Bill SE-S-S and mine

This is a whole set of orders that I believe are suboptimal. ATM, Jackson will not need more tiles for ~15 or more turns, as we do not plan any superfast growth there - the aqueduct was meant to allow working all hills. Tarzania will not need more tiles until aqueduct, which is again many turns (and once that moment comes, there will be high-food tiles in the SE of the city radius available). Thus, it makes IMHO little sense to clear/develop more tiles for these cities, when we have new cities in the South which will need improved tiles much sooner.

I would suggest using Michael & Jason Jr. to do some Jackson stuff, then move onto the Castlea site. Gus & Stanley would now clear the last jungle tile we need to finish the defense ring road between D.F. and Tarzania, then proceed with more jungle clearings in the Legopolis-D.F. area. And Ken & Jimbo should go to the South and start improving the recently founded cities.

quote: Originally posted by Kloreep Farmer NW-N

The plan is to let Philippe do this tile just in time (see the schedule here). I would prefer using Farmer to help improve Logville and later the new Southern coast cities.

quote: Originally posted by Kloreep Mark W and mine & road (Merc in Ahhmyfoot should be able to protect him?)

Even if I'd think pairing Mark with Farmer would be better, I'd agree with roading this hill (for strategic purposes) - but mining would be premature, as Ahhmy will not be using this tile for quite some time (first using high-food tiles to grow fast).

quote: Originally posted by Kloreep Fritz to stop clearing forest, then start again: As is, Fritz will waste the 10 shield chop on the finished Cathedral (worker moves are done first), but if he delays a turn, he can help with the next build.

Unless I made some embarrasing mistake, he should be done just in time - see the detailed schedule here. The trick is that the chopped shields actually get added on the FOURTH turn of chopping (and the worker just idles on the fifth turn). But, please, check this - I am not 100% sure.

I agree, except that I think Tarzania/Zargonia could use one more mined hill. Either Ken or Jimbo could do this by moving SE and mining. This can free the hill NW-NW of Zargonia for Zargonia's use. (Or alternatively, one of them could move SE-S to mine another hill for Zargonia.) This would let Zargonia hold growth at pop 6 while pulling in 15 spt - corruption.

Err, W is a grass tile. However, Amf can steal two plains from Karina for its 2nd and 3rd pop, so this can wait for a little while.

I agree with most of the suggestions except I wonder about these ones:

25) Perhaps Farmer should go E-E-SE then irrigate? so that he can start the irrigation path down to Tiberium?

26) How about Mark N-N-N then road - would make it easier to get to that bonus grassland - then he can head over to Quanto to help mine and road that area (without connecting it to the main roads of course).

Downside with that for Mark is that barb N of Quanto - guess we should move a Med Inf down there to get rid of it.

Well, if mining one more hill for Zargonia is the goal (and I agree that it's a reasonable goal), then I suggest we mine the hill S-SE of Zargonia, as that one will be useful for Crossing as well, allowing a greater flexibility in WF assignments between these two cities, leaving the hills in the Tarzania radius for later times.

quote: Originally posted by Kloreep Err, W is a grass tile. However, Amf can steal two plains from Karina for its 2nd and 3rd pop, so this can wait for a little while.

Ummm... as if you knew not that I keep messing with the directions... Sorry. There is a certain risk involved in having Mark improve either of the grass tiles SW or S of Ahhmyfoot - a barb horse can kill him before we can do anything about it (from the tile S-SW-SW of Ahhmyfoot). We would have to protect him with an escort - which we are short of ATM... I would first bring one more merc to the area. For the moment, I would really pair Mark with Farmer, as that will allow finishing the plains mine in 2t and later irrigations towards Tiberium one tile every turn (as long as irrigating roaded tiles) - getting the job done very quickly.

quote: Originally posted by Sharpe 25) Perhaps Farmer should go E-E-SE then irrigate? so that he can start the irrigation path down to Tiberium?

I would make this Farmer's (and Mark's) next assignment - Logville is quite short of shields ATM (it could build those settlers much faster, if having higher shield output), while Tiberium is not all that short of food, at least for the next few turns.

quote: Originally posted by Sharpe 26) How about Mark N-N-N then road - would make it easier to get to that bonus grassland - then he can head over to Quanto to help mine and road that area (without connecting it to the main roads of course).

As mentioned before - that bonus grass will be done by Philippe just in time (no gain by doing it sooner). I think Philippe should go over to Quanto once he finishes that bonus grass.

Looking at Farmer, I think it would be better to irrigate the plain; Mark could mine the river grass SE of it. Mining the plain won't speed up the settler, and this balances out shield placement so that both tiles will get a bonus shield in GA and mobilization.

	Suffering from ads?

I agree with Kloreep re his Farmer plans above (and the other ideas) - we also need to send a MI from the TarZar camp south - the barb warrior north of Quanto is a Suren while the camp further south is a Thracian - probably means there may be a camp NE of Quanto

I have thoroughly reviewed the save and I think I can play it - no issue found. I will order Farmer to irrigate the plains (though I'm less than convinced it's the best thing to do, as our GA is nowhere close) and move Ken+Jimbo S-S-S, so that we can still have some discussion about their next assignments.

I will also move some mercs, so that we do not have them idling on the West Coast, but garrisoning in the South. Nothing major - and western defenses will soon be replenished from S'haven and F'mouth anyway.

Now, the part about Mercedes may be a bit surprising - but as Horace, who is currently making sure there would be no barb-related troubles in the Northern Mountains, will sail over to Bob, completing our third LEF group, the Northern Mountains would remain out of our sight. I thus suggest we replace Horace with Mercedes (currently garrisoning Panama). New Panama garrison, Mercurio, already en route from Kloreepville.

I am not completely sure about this... I just think that keeping him as an archer is wasteful - either upgrade him and use as part of our homeland defenses, or send him to one of the new cities and disband for a little bit quicker build...

17) G.G. to move N-NE-NE
18) Troy to disembark NE
19) Hunter to disembark NE
20) Victor to disembark NE
I believe we do not even need to check with our allies - that spice tile is completely aside from any potential routes their troops may be using

21) Nicholas Copernicus (N.C.) to move E-NE-NE


Worker Movement/Actions

22) Michael to mine

23) Toby to road

24) Gus to clear jungle
25) Stanley to clear jungle

26) Ken to move SW-W and irrigate
27) Jimbo to move SW-W and irrigate
getting the tile irrigated for cheap (just 2*1/3 movement point)... besides, they will reach the tiles W/SE of Ahhmyfoot in 3 turns anyway, irrigating or not

28) Bill to road, later to develop the hill to the SE

29) Philippe to move S-W, then mine & road

30) Mark to move E-S and irrigate

31) Rover to move NE-NE-NE, then mine

32) Luke to road

32a) Logger to mine


City Management

33) reassign Forkmouth labourer from the fully improved hill W to the irrigated grassland NE-NE of the city
courthouse still in 1 turn, more food

34) new Dye Fields labourer to work the hill

35) new Logville labourer to work the unimproved bonus grass
settler in 1 turn

36) reassign Sharpehaven labourer from the roaded grass SE-SE to the fully improved hill E-SE; start building worker
if we build a 1-turn worker now, we will grow back to pop 6 on the next turn again, making optimal use of the accumulated food and losing virtually no shields

37) reassign two Tarzania labourers from mined hills to coasts
merc still in 1 turn, more commerce


38) set research slider to 90%
it was possible to set it this way already on this turn, but I left it at 100%, to have some extra beakers in the bank, just in case... but we are well over the needed output of 233bpt, so better save the gold. I would PM our allies and inform them that they may lower their payments to 25g each (they need the gold for upgrades).

39) send dyes to RPers/Spain as 'accepted'

True, but the unit names aren't on the map... so perhaps we might point out the locations of where our named units are for Nuclear Master's benefit.

Forgot about Logger:

32a) Logger to mine (I am assuming that you were wanting Rover and Logger to combine on the mined hill to get it done before Crossing gets to size 2 in 4 turns...)

	Full PM-box? Change here!

Are we going to give Vox astronomy?

	Increase Your PM Length

We cannot do that immediately anyway - would have to start with Education. Personally, I would wait a bit... I believe Voxian galleys are now out exploring the Legos Major coastline, quite far away from that spot we are interested in...

I will PM Beta about it (forgot to), but for the moment, let's not rush this tech gifting...

Added Logger orders (thanks, Steve, you do remember the plan correctly! ) and corrected the route for Ken & Jimbo (thanks, Kloreep!).
