It's my intent to run a chat next Friday 23:00 GMT, Jan 31.

I want to schedule a 2nd chat too, next Sunday, Feb 02 (time not scheduled yet).

This is the discussion thread.

You'll find the latest save here

If the war with Germany ends during Friday's chat, please be sure that the RGs have time to give new orders for Sunday.

Also, are there any plans to relocate any more cities in our expanding German province that I should be aware of?

We can discuss this, joncnunn. I'm for change one queue or two in order to produce settlers. Besides that, we still have two spots to fill (West of Hannover and Southeast of Syracuse), and there's only 1 settler left.

I take it your refering to 3W-2NW Hannover & 2S-2SE Syracuse?

If so, the first is a higher priority than the second.

We looked at moving Heidelburg, but the desired tile would be in Aztec territory after abandoning the old site.

Bremen could be relocated for tile reasons, and also to press border against Aztecs, but it's not a huge item. However, I suspect that the brits will take it tween turns. They may raze it. If they do, we will want to claim the hill tile ne of the old location.

Conclusion:
Orig Cologne site
Orig Vladivostok site
NE of Bremen if Brits take and raze.

Is the 10% lux slider really necessary?
I may be missing something, but I see only a few cities that suffer from so much WW that they need help with happiness, and these few cities can use an entertainer until the war is over; IMHO, this doesn't justify losing nearly 200 gold every turn because of the lux slider.

Definately needed for the 1340/1345 cycle. Now once the two Mkts that we rushed this turn appear, we will re-evaluate for the 1345/1350 cycle.

The exact # of additional entertainers needed and where they would come from would be very important.

Keep in mind that we lose gold for every worker we turn into an entertainer.

(In the cities closest to the P & FP with a Bank we lose 4 gold for every land-based worker we remove and 6 gold for every sea tile we remove.) Additional gold is lost if workers are removed from resource tiles.

Cities further away have some corruption, and we wouldn't lose quite as much gold per entertainer.

I plan to build a settler in Gaia; it has a maxxed-out granary and some irrigated grasslands that will help it jump back. But if you want a third settler, I dunno where to get it.

roadcage · January 29, 2003, 15:38

We will know by 1345 what we will be doing with Bremen. We can always occupy the target city tile while we wait on the settler.

Everything and anything military is doing just fine at the moment. I may need a handful of workers to build a road for me in preperation for the assaults on the last two German cities....a road would be VERY nice.

Not only for transporting my armed forces, but it would benefit the city's themselves, since they would already be connected to our transportation system....

I'd still like to see a railroad cross the mountains south of Nurembourg....

Sorry, this is absolutely off topic.
