In the meantime, I connect it to our capital to gain the bonuses of Metropolitan Society. With no ancient wonders in sight, and only a few resources, my guess is that I'll be releasing it in exchange for a better city later on. Overall, we're set to peak later in the midgame, if I can manage the diplomatic situation until then.Įndrail still needs some time to recover from our takeover, and it suffers the most from foreign claims. The eastern part of our island is uncontested by Artica and Yuri, but I haven't taken the time to clear its nodes yet. The site looks ideal for building an Abbey, from our second research set: the Tome of Faith. I develop our food income and claim a port to the northeast, which unlocks the harbour set of buildings. Pouring our money into development doesn't seem so bad. That's a lot more expense than I usually take on, but our army is small and crossing the water takes three turns every time. Finally, our cultural trait offers us +20% production just for owning an ancient wonder. I even enlisted some of the ogres we found guarding resource nodes to help build our capital. Our Wonder Architects start pigeonholed us into a production heavy build: The Dark Lair is a quarry equivalent that offers 25 production, and to get it I took an iron mine province. I think now is a decent time to tell you about our economy. Since I can't settle a third city, I'll need to develop the two I have. This also pushed my claims westward as you saw above. I have claimed the forest with the underground passage leading to Aster: I did not want it to be contested while I was not looking. I'm going to trust that protection for a while.īack on our starting island, I’m clamming up. On the other hand, we're now at 49 grievances to 0. This blocks our land access to the western peninsula and establishes an uncomfortable amount of claims over our capital territory. Thankfully, Artica seems quite happy to act as if we didn't exist: She’s established an outpost right next to the entrance to Aster. This is vital if we're going to stay on the right side of the war justification balance. Still, we sell some of the equipment we got from the conquest of Endrail and use the money to declare our rivalry with Artica. We get a mutual declaration of friendship a couple turns later.
