Yep, that is so. And that thinker can only produce one Thought, since we all have lolterrible development.


It's 2 thought for each antiquity tech. I just checked.

People, just going to point out that any pops we gained from pop growth can't be used until epoch 3. Says so in the OP.

Edit: Under economy; Population added at the start of an epoch may not be used in any way (can't work, can't serve in army...).

Yeah, but we're limited by development to one thought per epoch, so eh. It's a bit silly, since I doubt anyone will develop enough to actually take advantage of 2 Thought going to Antiquity tech.

Forgot about that. Development's going to be this RP's version of happieness, an insurmountable obstacle.

I think I'll rush religion, and get a bonus of, say, +1 Development per region, or something like that. Or Hovels give another 0.5 Development.

Over a very, very long period of time.

Hark, it might be best if we did what you did in your space colonising RP and we did multiple turns at a time.

cool. I was thinking about my faith giving incentives to having large populations. You get 0.25 wealth for each population throughout your empire, rounded down.

I'm trying to rush religion as well. And since I can only produce 1 thought per epoch I'll get it in 5 turns.

The trouble is that the Antiquity RP only lasts for 14 turns, maximum. So if we take, say, two turns a day, in a week we'll have to make a whole new RP.

Doing a bit of long-term planning with builds, so far up to epoch 7. I'm rushing sailing so I can get a port up to exploit the river maze in my capital province.

Just add more. They will count as kids in their first epoch, which means that they have to be fed and are useless, but afterwards, they will enter your workforce.

There is a limitation for how much you can add. Underdevelopped civs start at 50% of the total population, that's 3 pop addable each epoch.

*facepalms*

*slams head against desk*

*stabs himself with a knife*

I literally managed to get myself ages behind everyone else in the development of my nation. I don`t think I can take on Vulnier if he wants to come down as I literally have no Military and can`t really recruit troops or even get as many as he can.

I have only 2 Farms and one Manufactury and now only 2 Pop to rebuild myself. I`m totally not better than you.

You can`t be worse then me. I just got my pop massively decreased.

I don`t think they`ll starve. They all work their fertile lands and also have stable sources of food. I tried to make a stable source of food without realizing that I seemed to already have them and so most of my Pop starved.
