You should probably at least use your spare 2 labor to smelt bronze.

Don't bother trying to get him to do better turns, its clear he won't.

[Happerry]

His disadvantage, our advantage.

[IronyOwl]

I guess.

[DracoGriffin]

It's a pride issue.

[IronyOwl]

Speaking of which, why aren't you joining? Still too busy?

[IronyOwl]

Neither of us recorded my iron right; I should have 3, not 2.

There's some weirdness with my map and possibly turn. The road I built isn't shown, and while my seekers' survey results are shown, my sea scouts' aren't.

Also, do dependent beast units cost upkeep? Do siege weapons suffer any kind of penalty for attacking units like a regular unit?


EDIT: While I'm at it, I need naming advice from the rest of you. What should I call my new iron colony? I'm thinking Ironstone, Ironforge, or Ironsong, and had considered Ironedge just to keep most of the alliteration going. That was never especially intentional, however, and I'd probably be better off breaking the habit sooner than later. I'm certainly open to other suggestions as well.

wait them out inside the walls. archers and swiftfang in the middle and let the bronze equipped circle around and attack their right flank when they are 8 tiles from the city, stick the
general to one of the guardians (the bronze units name).
also how do i make an ha..... i need to give the owlbears to an unit dont i?

Fixed.

Oh, oops. I had the sea scouts on exploration, not cartography. And the road I just forgot to draw.

Also, do dependent beast units cost upkeep? Do siege weapons suffer any kind of penalty for attacking units like a regular unit?

No, they're covered with their handlers. As for siege weapons, they don't suffer any actual penalties, they just have low attack power and have a hard time getting more. Except for ballistas and the like, of course, if you're counting them as siege.

[Nirur Torir]

If I colonize the island without cartographing it first, do I miss out on a chance of getting a valuable resource?

[Vanigo]

Nirur Torir: No. Building a colony on unmapped terrain has the same chance of uncovering a resource as cartography does.

Ahra: You got torn up pretty badly; you need to redo your turn.

[Ahra]

edit:sorry ignore this.

[Vanigo]

Ahra, your turn is not legal. First, even with the military school, you can train two units, or raise two units, but not both. (Or you can train one unit and raise one unit, if you prefer.) Second, you don't have any wooden shields to give the youngfangs you want to raise.
Also, you've forgotten the -1 prosperity from your defeat.

[Ahra]

tweaked.

[IronyOwl]

Ouch indeed.

Ah. Well, that works too.

Excellent.

[IronyOwl]

So, here's a bizarre question: Can two different civilizations pool resources, and more importantly knowledge, to do something neither has the stuff to do alone? If two civs each have one of two techs that together allow a magical trinket, for instance, could they work together to produce said trinket?


While we're on the topic, is there any way for players to build or operate buildings or improvements in other players' cities? If I didn't want to or couldn't build something, could I hire someone else to? What about NPC cities?
