Caravans: 1100 AD
Should we continue to produce 4 caravans at all times, once we finish Leo's? (I would suggest yes, in anticipation of (1) opening trade routes, and (2) future wonders we may wish to build.)

Four seems fair enough to me - but dare I suggest that it might have been better to have had more options in this poll so that people could choose the actual number of caravans they think there should be (then take an average or something).

Edit: And where's the we should produce more bananas option?!!

The four caravans at all times policy is one created by my predecessor. This poll is merely to determine whether the people believe that policy should continue or not.

No banana option? What will people think...

Four is OK at the mo', especially since some cities that can build them aren't too useful for anything else yet due to size and resources tied up in support. We may need to reassess this rapidly during the upcoming WAR.

Yeah, what was I thinking? I missed the banana option! Augh! (Well, I included it in my next poll!)

Fair play, I must have missed that policy being started.

Don't worry, Mr. Minister, the "Core of 4" is only a floor, a minimum that we want to keep for stashing away for Wonders. We can have some ocassional additions, too.
