Fun fact about Anansi: you don't have to own the resources he's clearing. So you can use him to sabotage one of your neighbors by clearing out their luxuries, while at the same time getting science and culture for yourself.

I watch other streamers and find myself saying wow whiskey would not have done that. Your ability to weight the risk/benefit of mult decisions is really superior in this game. I play with your style in all my single player games, and have picked up a tremendous amount of knowledge from you. Grateful. Thank you.

30:11 Heroes can indeed pick up the extra properties from natural wonders. I had Spear Of Fion on a hero in my last game.

[@cometmoon4485]

I think a cool change would be new categories of City States. For example, city states with Green icons could be Food-based, and give bonuses like "industrial zone agency yields also give food". City states with Teal icons could be Diplomatic-based, giving bonuses like "Each of your ally's votes in resolutions also give half a vote in your favour, if you are both voting for the same option". City states with Pink icons could be Loyalty-based, giving bonuses like "newly-constructed wonders give an extra +5 loyalty to your cities within 8 tiles for 10 turns".

[@soaringraven0]

I think you can actually still get Granada's suzerain bonus even if Babylon conquers it because it will probably flip to you, and I seem to remember that you get the option to liberate a city-state if it was owned by another civ and then flips to you, which would make you suzerain automatically.

Hi Potato, have you ever consider to use Armani as first governor in the very early turns once you meet first city state, and switch her into different city state that you meet first, in order to get suzerainty of different city state and get era scores and explore map much easier?

[@glennph8255]

Hey Potato, I have a idea that could be interesting for one of your video. I did some research and I find a way to make OP relics. You need to play as Poland because this civ receives bonuses from relics, moreover you need to have the secret society mod (the voidsingers) and hereos and legends mod, because they allow to have relics of heroes and cultists. And finally, with 3 city states, Kandy, Babylon and Anshan you can boost even more the relics. I hope you will try this. I love your videos.

[@villekorpi714]

I suspect there might be a bug that deletes your heroic relics when adopting voidsingers turns your monuments into old god obelisks.

I'm thinking of doing a bunch of tests where I 1) Try to do something (mostly build a wonder) literally as quickly as I possible game, 10 or so times (to get the average of how fast I can do it) 2) Play through 10 or so nonsense Deity games to see how quickly the AI does it on average Doing these two things would be a good gauge of how much margin for error there is if you want to build that wonder, etc. So far I've rushed the Great Bath in a Prince setting and on average I get it around the mid-20s (when I literally plan it out from turn 1, chop every tile that helps, etc.). I haven't played enough nonsense games to find how early the AI tends to get it.

I've honestly started building holy sites no matter what now, even if going for culture or science. The Heroes costing faith, Monumentality Golden Age, and city-states that let you purchase things with Faith is just too good. It's also a no brainer to me for any domination victory now, especially when I played Shaka for the first time and I spawned next door to Lahore.

Anansi is by far the strongest hero you could of gotten as a first hero. 360 science and 300 culture could of shot you up to an extreme advantage and all you have to do is walk them through city states or land you know the AI will claim. Or collect griefances and just murder AIs resources. Not to mention he is a ranged unit to help vs combat too.

[@nolongeraperson]

Hmmmmmm... I dunno. I still think the saved production via Hercules is still the best early game.

[@ashaf3561]

@@nolongeraperson Think about it. On average early districts cost like 8 turns (15 at worst). Lets say that is a +4 campus if you got it 20 turns early it still only adds up to 80 science. If you got 3 of those (his max) 3 turns early that is only 240 science. Yes it adds up past that but so does getting early techs/culture and that is by far best condition.

[@nolongeraperson]

@@ashaf3561 I'll give it a shot next time. But those 8 turns not building a campus also can be a settler instead or 8 turns into a wonder that you really want before the AI etc etc. That's really hard to beat. Especially the settler part.
