[X] [GA] Random culture tech upgrade (-8 Culture)

[X] [React] Continue work on the Place to the Stars (5/7-8 actions completed)
That Glassworks might as well be our next Guild Action has a point.
If we had the 19 culture needed for a Culture Genius + Theatre, I'd be all for it; but as is, we could only go for a hero without hitting negative culture doing it all at once, and I don't think that's enough to shift the bandwagon. So I'm going for more PttS while our mystic genius is still alive. We don't know how long she'll last.

We need to strike while the Iron is hot, and ensure good relations with our neighbors.
[] [FC] Redshore
[] [FC] Redhills
Redshore was purged of corruption, and Redhills is brand new, so I can relatively trust them not to immediately go hyper-corrupt. Also don't want to give freedom to our religious centers with such high RA.
[] [Diplo] Talk with southern neighbours (Sec Trade Mission - Highlanders + Lowland Minors (South-West))
See if we can't get better relations with the Hghlanders during our guaranteed peace and start working on the Lowland Minors, who will probably get eaten by the Swamp Folk if we don't act soon.
[] [React] Main Build Glassworks
[] [React] Main Expand Forests
Either of these are good.
@Academia Nut do we know which stat governs our relations with our vassals?
Like, for example, would a Diplo Genius have a chance of increasing our relations and unifying the cultures of our vassals, or would that be more the domain of an Admin or Culture genius?

Beethoven was deaf not mad. And most genius musicians of the far past, whilst slaves to thier passions, were very much of sound mental state and in control of thier faculties. Being unstable in front of the high nobility who were the patrons of the arts was a sure way of ending your career.

How bad? And do note: we now have a far northern trading post, so aren't we also getting better wood for our ships soon?
Uh, Build Theatre costs culture. That vote is committing to spending 19 culture right there. We've only 18!
Please rethink this?

Diplo would probably more like Cardinal Mazarin, Prince Metternich, or Bismarck (though obviously contemporary to our era - I just can't think of anyone particularly known for diplomacy in the Classical Era - it was very much more stabby-stabby, rather than talky-talky).

I'm happy with trying again. It's quite possible to work better with a Main devoted to them.
Just checked.
Tar for the british navy was produced by distilling pine trees. The other product of the process was charcoal.
So the northern tradepost is likely to figure it out soon enough and tell us.

What? Where was that mentioned? Wemay have done a main enforce justice but that in no way shows that the corruption is gone.
Also everyone! do keep in mind that intrigue is a subset of diplomacy so a genius diplo could also be a genius intrigue.
I think you need to redo that vote.

Well, there is approval voting.
And every counter wagon vote begets another.

@Academia Nut would a diplo genius have a chance to be an intrigue genius?

@Academia Nut would expanding our forest now that we have the Northern Trading Post mean that we would start planting some northern trees as well? Or is it too early for that?
I feel like there's a strong chance that there would be some sort of synergy based culture pay off for this. May not be as crazy as it seems.
Well, true enough. Adding a vote for a culture hero.
Won't add the theatre unless the bandwagon actually shifts, though; I don't care to go negative culture.

that vote spends more culture than we actually have. Please drop the theatre.
@Academia Nut - I assume that as usual, if a subvote for GA doesn't have 1/2 the votes, it isn't counted?
In other words, the current leader for GA is a random genius for -15, not one of the specified choices?

You assume that everyone else is monolithic in their voting; I am personally voting for Diplo Genius but not Roads (wait I better add diplo hero to that)*looks at winning votes*
Foolks.
There is no point combining Diplo Genius with Roads; Diplo Genius is made for Trade Missions or maybe Salt Gifting.
If you think we need Roads now more than external contacts (which makes sense too), vote for Admin Genius.

Dude, we can't buy a hero AND build a theatre - it costs 19 culture. We have 18.
