Really? I would have expected you of all people, O Gandalf of the Huge Maps and Forever Long Games, to see Growth as a good investment. Do you just find it uninteresting or unthematic for the nations you play?

Any province that's had a Growth-3 dominion for 23 turns or longer is pulling in 21+% extra income, which is as good as Order-3. The advantage to Order is those initial 23 turns of higher income (of course Order and Growth is even better).

Order also reduces the chance of random events, so it allows you to take Misfortune - the net effect of which is that Order is cheaper than Growth.

But yes, you want both.

Good to hear that beer has opened the doors of perception. Please let me know if they will now accept oranges as payment for your rent, as I foresee a excellent export business from Kenya and a happy business partnership between us.

I believe I now need to start a game with this god and role play the carrots. Shame about my new baby, this could be a really fun AAR!

Siolent - as in the movie "Soilent Green", except when you are talking about orange instead of green, you're supposed to transpose the 'i' and the 'o'. This makes 'soilent' transform into 'siolent'. So it's not about people eating people, but people eating carrots. Kristoffer was obviously going off somewhere to eat carrots. Everyone knows how well carrots go with beer. Is that clear?
