So that means the ability to build forges, factories and other polluting buildings. With a granary, a grocer and the supermarket/mall you get 11 possible health points. With Grocer, Market, Bank and Mall that is 120% increase in income. Maybe you don’t need the health, but the money is always nice. Grocers also give +25% wealth and can turn two citizens into Merchants. Given that the grocer gives +1 health from wine & plantation resources, that might solve your health problems already. Well, it does come late and requires a grocer to be built. :mischief: With your extra happiness from the ECWs and health from buildings or environmentalism, you’ll be fine unless you grow too big from the extra food, but the extra cash will help you in hitting the cap-raising Future Techs. Or, what I do: Bully them and force them to capitulate and then you can just demand all their resources, giving you even more to broker with the other civs! (that is, until you vassalize them, too :devil:) Ah, the American Dream. So maybe warmongering should be done sparingly as you’ll want to be on good terms with some so you can trade with them. With the extra health and happiness you can afford to trade your extra or obsolete resources in order to stock up on the Corporation resources. Sid’s Sushi can really clean up on certain maps, and I have had maps with a +16 food from Cereal Mills so it will all depend on the resources that you can rack up. Finally, any settled Great Merchant will contribute another +1 food, but don’t forget to found either Sid’s Sushi or the Cereal Mills first and then collect resources to really get that population up! And I assume the you have already built a lighthouse in your coastal city. Philosophical Lincoln likes this idea and the extra food raises the population and resulting score for any leader in those Time Victory games. So, add this to the Grocer event in one city or combined with the food from the Mall, we again have enough to support a(nother) specialist. Meanwhile, the Horse Whispering Quest which can occur once you have Animal Husbandry and a Horse resource gives you a chance for all stables to produce +1 food. The Rural Farmers Event will give +1 food to a city’s Grocer. Synergy with Corporations, Events or Quests? Given his philosophical trait, he is a great candidate for space race because of the Mall´s bonuses, maximizing the health and happiness caps. It seems that the extra health and happiness could really give Lincoln a nice late game edge when large, polluting cities needs extra health and happiness. But, if you were to play as the industrious and organized Roosevelt, then you could get some of the benefits of Washington at the same time if you build malls. Also his +1 happiness in all cities and +2 with monuments or broadcast towers (which is great if you build the Eiffel Tower) works with, but seems to negate the happiness from the mall too. In BtS, the Industrial Park cause pollution depending on what resources you have. Then again, you can afford to build pollution causing, production buildings with all that extra health. Not sure about using it with Washington, who is charismatic and expansive, so the +2 health means the health bonus from the mall maybe isn’t so big. What is your pleasure, GP farming or warmongering? Either way, I think it helps out. That alone is enough, but the +20% gold can be nice too.īuilding one or all of those happiness/culture wonders mentioned above would add 3 happiness points like that and the added health means larger cities as well. For the same price as a supermarket (which provides + 1 food and extra health from cow, deer, pig and sheep) you also get happiness from the three late “entertainment/culture wonders” or ECWs □ musicals from Broadway, singles from Rock n’ Roll and movies from Hollywood, and now with the patch, plus 20% gold in the city to boot! For a future era start, maybe not needed right away, but if in a long game where your population is reaching health and happiness/WW limits, its a great building to have even if it does come late in the game. It is a good choice for an American UB, I feel. I did eventually run out of space even with the editing of the first four posts, so you can find the final civs Rome to the Zulus here at post 76 on page 4.Īmerican Mall (Supermarket): Some lost material will be featured in my other article on manipulation of unit promotions gained from quests and events as it is more relevant there. **I have updated this article to include BtS concepts like synergy with quests and corporations and revised the reviews.
