14 Jan, 1481 – Well that didn’t last long. Hedjaz broke their alliance with us.
9 Feb – We now have Admin tech 7, allowing Noble Republic and another group of ideas.
Which group will we choose this time?
I like:
Expansion Ideas – With its extra colonist early, extra merchant next. But it’s another Diplo idea, and I may not have enough stuff to help them out.
Economic Ideas - Give bonuses to taxes, build cost and such. The -20% build cost at the second level is a huge help to building alone.
Quality Ideas – Comes with bonuses to infantry, cavalry and such all down the line
Offensive Ideas – Same thing, helps our armies out considerably.
So what to do?
I don’t need another colonist. I don’t need to be a colonizing fool. I don’t expect Oman all over the Americas or anything. I like Naval ideas for later, but its diplo too.
Ummm
We’ll do Expansion I suppose. It has a lot of good things in there.
I have 415 diplo power after the war, so I immediately give myself the +1 colonists. Then I order colonists to Mauritius
