GreatWyrmGold, do you want to add an unskilled to your University as well? You can staff the building fully, and it's no real use without someone to train in it.
Sure.
(Forgot how it worked...)


Ok, done. Remember that to train the Unskilled up to skilled you need to feed BOTH of them that turn.



And that's why Survey, Production and Trade played-bonus should be buffed up to something irreplaceable, as the other bonuses are right now. Also, my reserved colonist isn't showing.

Mmmm, I don't think so. That assumes that it's necessary for every phase to want to be played every turn. I don't see any problem with the occasional turn where everyone wants to do the same thing. Survey might need buffing slightly, although it still sees some use.  The other two are played regularly whenever someone wants them to happen, which is pretty often. Production certainly doesn't need a boost, since it's critical to progress the game at all.

You misunderstand. If I want a production done, I can either play it or pray/agree that someone else does. +1 W is a completely replaceable bonus. Build's play-bonus is completely irreplaceable, since the possibility of immediatly beginning production in the building is far too beneficial. Thus, if I want to have a staffed building, I can only play build - if I don't, I will lose at least one production cycle (if org is played on the same turn). If you don't want to buff production, then at least nerf build to something along the lines of 'the building autostaffes at the beginning of next turn if you aren't the one who played it'.

I'll start out at "Eight Wealth per Level, Goods By Arrangement," and see how that goes.

I'm not sure what I'd use it for. Also, you don't seem to have any at the moment...

You also appear to be training your own dudes.  I don't need it done this turn, anyway.

Point.

Still not sure what I'd do with the machine, though.
