I will indeed pay with a Warrior and a Knight.

Watno · « **Reply #176 on:** December 13, 2012, 01:52:23 pm »

That colony would have been a perfect fit in this turn

Play Frugality to increase population
Increase population
Take Iron (2)
Build a Knight (MA)
Play Columbus (losing the military action token already spent)

Galzria · « **Reply #177 on:** December 13, 2012, 01:54:00 pm »

Damn. I haven't yet seen an Iron go through for less than 3, and I think that was the last. Blaaah.

Watno · « **Reply #178 on:** December 13, 2012, 01:56:05 pm »

It was indeed the last. However, Age II is just about to start, so Coal will be coming up.

BTW@Tables: are you aware it's your turn in hanabi?

Yeah, but you can't upgrade Copper -> Coal, which means I need enough Copper to produce enough to build a Coal mine, and then I need to consider if I want to remove the workers from the Copper mine itself to go elsewhere, which is a double waste of resources and time.

Oh well.

Watno · « **Reply #180 on:** December 13, 2012, 02:00:07 pm »

You can upgrade Copper->Coal.

I thought you couldn't skip a age? Eh, maybe I remember incorrectly.

Tables · « **Reply #182 on:** December 13, 2012, 02:13:54 pm »

You can indeed upgrade any amount.

I'll go look at Hanabi, and process Watno's turn in a second. Also, importantly, the unused workers formula was missing a few cells on people's sheets (notably those who've played military techs). I've updated all of these to be correct, but it does mean you might have a few less unused workers than everyone thought you did. Sorry for the inconvenience, I'll keep a closer eye on it from now on.

Probably won't affect your decision, but I'm afraid this isn't allowed. When you adjust tokens, you always keep the same amount of spent tokens (unless you're losing more actions than you have remaining). Do you want to adjust anything?

Whew, I was worried for a minute there. I thought my urban buildings were really going to suck there.

I'm happy with the Level Is anyway, since that provides a nice launching pad into the advanced buildings. As it is, I'll have to contend with the jump from A to II in temples and labs.

Watno · « **Reply #185 on:** December 13, 2012, 02:25:22 pm »

It most certainly is possible. See page 7 of the rules, at the end of the special effects of leaders and wonder paragraph:
"When you lose an action token, you can take away one of the tiokens that you have already used that turn."

Tables · « **Reply #186 on:** December 13, 2012, 02:32:13 pm »

My mistake. Must have been confusing it with the rules for playing Government tech (which do explicitly state the tokens spent before and after should be the same)

Tables · « **Reply #187 on:** December 13, 2012, 02:38:04 pm »

Watno scores 0 culture, 4 science, and produces 0 (2-2 consumption) food and 3 resources (3-0 corruption). He then draws 2 military cards.

Theocracy is discarded, and the card row is refreshed.

This is most certainly the last turn of Age I (or more precisely, Age I will end at the start of Galz turn with updating the card row).

Each civilization scores culture = to culture rating

Galzria scores 1 culture

Qvist, you can continue your turn.

Qvist scores 1 culture, 2 science, and produces 1 (3-2 consumption) food and 3 resources (6-3 corruption). He then draws 0 military cards.

Nothing is discarded, the card row is (for now partially) refreshed.

Age I ends

Watno:
Decreases his population by 2 (25>23)

Qvist:
Discards Moses from play
Decreases his population by 2 (25>23)

Discards Aristotle from play
Decreases his population by 2 (25>23)

Kuildeous:
Discards Hammurabi from play
Decreases his population by 2 (26>24)

The Age I Military deck is removed, and replaced by the Age II Military deck. The Age II Civil deck is shuffled and bought into play. An Age II Civil card is dealt into the remaining gap on the card row.

That makes 7 Civil actions (remember, the Great Wall will cost 1 CA to take - it's 1 by default, +1 because you've got 1 Wonder, -1 because Michelangelo)

I had forgotten to add 1 for my current Wonder, that's all. Drop the last Pop increase.

It's an easy one to miss.

Note: Watno has 1 food more than I reported. That's now fixed. This is getting harder and harder to update correctly, I will try and be more careful as we go on (which will of course mean longer delays between posts and updates even if I'm online)
