Destroy a temple

Priest cites Iob 1:21.

I'm afraid you got that one wrong, too. It's not you who gets to decide which building is destroyed, but Jorbles.

Ouch. Not used to getting raided so early in the game. Later on, when two or three buildings are destroyed, there is not too much choice anyway, that's why I forgot.

OK, so my move is: Concede defeat against Jorbles' Raid.

is it perhaps a difference between the three and four player versions of this game?

No. I was simply in the wrong. Main difference between 3-player and 4-player is that more civs can gang up on me

cayvie · « **Reply #155 on:** December 12, 2012, 04:32:25 am »

that's my implication

in a 4 player game, maybe people attack you more

Received wisdom is that you should trail the strength leader by not more than the value of a defense card from the current age.

Watno · « **Reply #157 on:** December 12, 2012, 06:20:13 am »

Jorbles destroys ipofanes' philosophy (since that is the only urban building ipofanes has), getting 2 resources. ~~This is not in the spreadsheet yet.~~ Spreadsheet updated.

Jorbles, you can take your turn now. Remember that you already used 1 military action.

Jorbles · « **Reply #158 on:** December 12, 2012, 10:46:38 am »

Woo! Successful raid is successful! (Sorry about ganging up on you ipofanes, but after cayvie tried I knew it wasn't likely you had another defense card.) And yes I definitely would have targeted Philosophy.

Civil Actions:
Increase Population
Increase Population
Build Wonder Stage 1
Build Philosophy

Military Actions:
Draw card

Watno · « **Reply #159 on:** December 12, 2012, 10:50:29 am »

Did you deliberately not play your Frugality card for the population increase?

Also, to clarify: Philosophy was ipofanes only urban building. Development of religion only happened in a parallel universe that has collapsed.

yes, trying to keep those blue tokens off my board.

Did my science get added correctly? I didn't think I used any that turn.

Tables · « **Reply #164 on:** December 12, 2012, 11:11:58 am »

Methinks it didn't.

Watno · « **Reply #165 on:** December 12, 2012, 11:13:48 am »

It clearly did...just now

Hey, I'm going V/LA starting this weekend, but I will make priority time for this game, because it's my favourite. (Sorry other games). Now if only it were my turn. I really want to do my move.

cayvie · « **Reply #167 on:** December 13, 2012, 11:09:01 pm »

okay, i have internet again, making move

cayvie · « **Reply #168 on:** December 13, 2012, 11:17:23 pm »

Political Actions

none

Civil Actions
Build Great Wall (-2 resources)
Play Engineering Genius to build Great Wall
Build Great Wall (-2 resources)
Play Frugality to Increase Population (-3 food, +1 food)

Military Actions
Draw 2 Cards

this avoids corruption, right? consumption leaves me with 1 blue token in the rightmost region?

Tables · « **Reply #169 on:** December 13, 2012, 11:32:43 pm »

It leaves you with two by my calculation (4 on food, 4 on resources, none on wonders = 10 remaining)
