if your goal is to maximize for example resource decay as soon as possible then waste to spend those on turns.

nah, im going to bldg expense this set

and it would have been a waste, maybe not in a Rep but I would have had to go down to 26 acres/turn to safely double my land.

I found a different way ;)

IMO, BP's for turns is a waste. Unless you're using them for extra attacks in a war or to help refresh combat readiness, etc.

with a rep and bonus turns for a batch explore you could be at or above 8k acres right now

meh, still a waste of time you could only get an extra 14 turns before losing turns

I don't think the extra turns you gain on the front end equal or better what you lose on the back end when you're losing $5,000,000 a turn to decay/corruption while you try to top them off.

I did that last set. Thought the extra turns would be beneficial, but I don't think they were. Using extra turns only gets you to your first $2billion cash faster and the you spend day after day mitigating corruption/decay as a result. :/

yeah, this set I'm going for max building cost bonus and stock.

I won't start stocking until after bushels prices hit $40 range and then drop(last 3 weeks of the set usually)

I plan on taking avg land record in ESD to a whole new level =D

I like Ptolemaeus' idea of land trading brings it to a whole new level of understanding. My thanks good sir!
