Wait, so you don't need pop on a construction site that uses minerals?

Nope. Just minerals.

That's useful to know, lucky I didn't make that post earlier or I'd have to have rewritten it all xD

Fortune smiles upon the procrastinator yet again!

I realized that my imperial court can't do anything offensive, so I'm going to edit my latest post.

EDIT: finished.

Question about conquering (not that I'm planning it or anything): if an individual conquers someone that has buildings that the conquered doesn't know how to make yet, can the conqueror still use those buildings? I figure it might work in a puppet state-like system, but I'm not sure.

EDIT: Also, if everyone could refrain from telling my target he's going to get attacked, that'd be great.

If I built the Great Temple, and /then/ went through the Reformation, would I lose the +1 Authority?

[ApplePieistan]

Now that I think about it, I think nearly every invasion could be stopped by spamming nomads. I mean, sure there's a penalty after 5, but I think it's pretty negligible.

If you have the food for it, too.

They can scavenge. If invaded, someone could make their entire population into nomads and beat practically any army.

That would be silly.

Just add reformation/fundamentalism next to existing bonuses.

There is a limit on nomads, 5 I think, if you have more you'll lose 1 authority and they can only scavange if there is unused fertility, 1 scavanger per unused fertility.

Coo'.

I'm still trying to decide whether to take currency or architecture first. I can't risk missing out on a socio-economic paradigm, given that feudalism would really suck for me.

Would 'patronage' be a good weak socio-economic paradigm? Workshops can use culture instead of minerals to produce wealth?

I think it would make more sense if patronage let workshops produce both wealth and culture.

Also works for me.

And if you could use CULTURE to maybe increase power of units by 1?

[The Grim Reaper]

This very very works for me.

So, PATRONAGE (Socio-economic Paradigm) - +1 Culture from Workshops. 1 Culture can be spent to increase power of a unit by 1 for 1 turn.

And, when I get Architecture up, may I propose TERRACE FARMS (Architectural Paradigm) - Farms grant +1 Culture and provide Fresh Water to its workers. Would that be too powerful? Alternatively, same name, but a province with any number of sewers gains 1 Fertility.

Is it possible to create a socio-economic paradigm that boost mineral production ?

Ah, so you can build wonders faster. That's a good idea.

You can already get freshwater to all populations just for building sewers...
That might be in fact too easy... but its too late to change.

How about +1 Fertility, max 1 per province, cost 3 minerals terrace farm?

I would prefer if socio-economic paradigms were linked wish wealth and happiness for now. Its a bit too early for Industrialism.

Perhaps architecture could unlock some kind of new building material that can be used to reduce prices of wonders or provide Minerals towards buildings or ships...

Is it turn 14 yet?

Is it turn 14 yet?

now it is.

Sorry thanksgiving so haven't been able to post but I'll get one out soon,by the way culture provides happiness correct?

Yes, correct.

[Harkback Union]

1 Culture can increase the happiness of 1 population by 1.
Same for wealth.

Max 1 Happiness from culture and max 1 Happiness from wealth per each population.

So the maximum number of happiness 1 population can have is 5, correct? If they have food, water, shelter, wealth, and culture?
