Well its unoccupied so there is noone to fight.

**BlapBlapBlap**

I'd say no. Just say that each one gives points to be spent in different areas, i.e. Food could lead to general stuff and Productivity, whilst Ind can be spent on military, tech and academia for Military units, Tech advancements and Agents.

**Private_Joker**

Well any unsold points for farms will be fed into your population. If you have a small population then the left over points from farms turn into cash.

**BlapBlapBlap**

Can Cash = Points to spend on Tech, i.e. Productivity increase?

Trade the Tech points with others and the Food Points with yourself. No food trade as in normality it'd be impractical and the food would probably rot.

**admiral9**

So food is never traded?

**Private_Joker**

Hmmm this points system seems interesting.

So there will be 3 points systems:

1) Food produced =10 points> 5 of those points used feeding population of 5000 people> remaining points?

2) Industry produces materials > 7 of thoses points clothes, armours your army of 700 men> remaining points can be stored and traded.

3) University produces 10 points> spend as many points on tech tree as you want and sell the rest if you want

Alot of flexibility there. What will be the selling price of these points?

Food could be traded later down the technology tree when it is possible. But early stages things like spices, salts, etc can be sold.

**BlapBlapBlap**

Something like that, yeah. Maybe part of an alliance allows you to trade food?

**Private_Joker**

Well I would say food can be traded anytime and industry can only be traded in an alliance, considering it is for military purposes.

**admiral9**

Uum will or will we not use gold allong with this because if we use gold.

food point:10 gold

industry point:50 gold

University point:100 gold

**Private_Joker**

Haha, I wonder how complicated we are making this for ourselves.

**admiral9**

Not really that complicated i think.

Its a pretty easy system.

**BlapBlapBlap**

Too complicated. I'm trying to simplify it...

**Private_Joker**

You could also store food, then we have winters and such where food production is down by 50 %. Also need to know how long a turn is, and how many people who die/ are born into the population.

**TheRobotLol**

..Ok.

**admiral9**

How is that to complicated?

**Private_Joker**

Little overboard?

Btw is anyone making the map.

I can't be stuffed doing it atm so that bonus is still up for grabs.

**TheRobotLol**

Little complex, but alright.

**admiral9**

Ok maybe i just don't get it whatever.

I guess a turn would be one season.
And the born/die ratio would really depend on the race.

**Private_Joker**

Getting rid of tax system because it makes no sense.

**BlapBlapBlap**

I'd think that seasonal turns would be really slow. Make it work in 5 or 10 year long turns.

**Private_Joker**

Well each turn only produces 10 points of technology. You need to reach 50 to move on to next level. So 5 turns/50 years.

**TheRobotLol**

Sounds fair.

**BlapBlapBlap**

You wouldn't ascend levels of technology in just over a year, i.e. going from Victorian to Modern Age.

**TheRobotLol**

I was being sarcastic.

**admiral9**

Thats why i say make a turn either 1 year or 5 years.

Or no deal..

**Private_Joker**

1 turn = 10 years
Takes 50 years to ascend technology.

**BlapBlapBlap**

Unless you spend it.

It should be depending on cities, i.e. every city/province/whatever produces 2 Tech Points.
