Spark of Civilization - OOC/Signups (Semi-Open) - Antiquity

[G-Tech Corporation]

Presumably we start with an Abyssmal Development level.

Also, Hark, can those of us who actually started in the center gain +1 Wealth?

And can a new settlement be supplied with food from an old one with a Road? Cause otherwise you need at least three wealth to settle anywhere...

Everyone gets the +1 because its crowded everywhere!

And its pobably gonna get even tougher when I start spawning new civs as barbarian hordes invading from the southern deserts or the sea!!

But I am actually central- people in every direction, no natural borders to work with

And the question about roads?

The deserts are gonna be though to passtrough.
You also have defense bonus.

But so do the other people farther out from the center with a single neighbor, like Bython. Doesn't really seem reasonable to give them the same Wealth as moi, ya dig?

Even I? I'm isolated!

Hey G-Tech, I forgot, can we work on our next eon now?

[G-Tech Corporation]

Hey G-Tech, I forgot, can we work on our next eon now?

I believe we can, though Hark might clarify some stuff.

Like I want to know if we can supply new provinces with a Road network from an old one, because otherwise I need to stockpile some serious wealth to feed colonists.

Don't you mean food?

EDIT: Does an agriculture count as a structure?

The wealth bonus was supposed to be given out to encourage settling in the middle of things, but otherwise being in the center has as many advantages as disadvantages. You have more directions to expand in and you'll be able to trade with a lot of people.

Well food can't be transferred without a Road see, but the question is if we need a Road in the new province in order to be able to transfer food there. If yes, you need three Wealth to feed the workers to put up the road, or they'll starve when you expand.

I believe Agriculture does, yes.

Shit, I wasted my free IO or RL then... *bangs head against table*

But that hasn't changed since you said starting in the middle of everywhere gave a bonus. Starting in the middle still gives you more enemies and less space to expand, since I literally have a civilization within two provinces in every direction except the west.

Hark doesn't agree with me on this, but I think we need to see if people read the OP. That'll handle the clutter real good.

So, are we on Epoch 2 yet, and if so how much pop-growth happens between Epochs 1 and 2?

As for my speciality, after either sacrificing 1 unit of pop or killing 3 enemy units in battle, gain a +3 strength bonus to all combats in that epoch?

Since we're all fairly barbaric in terms of development, I think you can grow up to 50%.

So 3 extra pops? Good, good.

ARGH, Can I call mercy plz. I didn't know that the Agriculture was a structure.

[G-Tech Corporation]

Yep. Though you have to feed them, and let them be "idle" for a turn before they become contributing members of society.

[ApplePieistan]

Wrong! You'd be an abysmal with that.

Well, you need to get that food infrastructure up first before they can do anything,

[Lunas Legion]

I think we're all abysmal in terms of development anyway.

[The Flame Dawn]

Hark, please say that the agriculture isn't a structure. please DX

[ApplePieistan]

Wrong! You'd be an abysmal with that.

I think we're all abysmal in terms of development anyway.

Wrong! To be an abysmal, you need your population to be 8 or higher than your development. We're all subsistent right now.

[The Flame Dawn]

Turn 2 here I come...

Pfft. Who cares about that? I only start losing wealth, and that's no big thing really.

Sure, the slower thought generation's annoying, but that little hiccup won't last too long.

Wrong! You lose 3 wealth worth of stuff, meaning either 3 food or 1 food and 1 raw labor.
