But not strictly better, because the spinoff can have a different cost than the expansion.

On that note: please remember, when you play an event/territory it is added to the future events deck face-down and the top event of the current events pile is triggered. Do not state in the the thread which event/territory you played (or even wether it was a territory instead of an event), but PM me the card you add to the pile.

Oh right that's how I was going to do it; military actions are not civil actions!

Political Actions: none

Civil Actions
Play Aristotle
Play Frugality (increasing population and gaining 1 food)
Take Printing Press into hand (gaining 1 science from Aristotle)
Play Printing Press (spending all 3 science points)

Military Actions
Play Tactics: Fighting Band
Make an Infantry Warrior, organizing my 2 warriors into a Fighting Band

Because you've increases population twice.

At this point in the game, it's nothing to worry about. That warning is big and red, but as long as you have the spare worker, it's no problem. Especially, no Age A events punish you for discontent workers, so essentially, you have one worker who's now giving you a happiness, for free, and so you can get another 3 workers without worry. That's not too bad, right?

Discontent worker means you have one less happy face than required. However, as long as you dont have more discontent workers as unused workers, this is not a problem. The list of how many happy faces you need for each number of workers left on your population bank is shown on the overview sheet.

This all sounds vaguely familiar.

Also that's a little boon towards what I wanted to do.

Increase population
Build Farm
Build Wonder stage (1)
Take Alchemy

Man, Alchemy for 1 CA, that was just too good to be true. From my (limited) experience, it's one of the big three Age I techs: Iron, Knights and Alchemy. Of course it always depends on the kingdom civilisation you're building but all of those are really good a lot of the time.
