Re: Quicksilver
I didn't get to watch the games in PoH, but I did some tests today. Very amusing playstyle! I think the opening "move" can be improved by sending one villager to each wall segment (up to a limit of five villagers or so). If you can do a remote search for your own wall foundations and target the results with the forward villagers, that may work.

Re: Quicksilver
Yeah, that would help a ton. My searches are a total mess in this version, so I couldn't have managed another one without significantly slowing my wall-building down, but now that I've rewritten the code to use rule jumping, I could do it.
I did have an early version that used DUC to send villagers forward while researching feudal age so they were already waiting at the enemy base when we first built the walls, but I could never get to them to actually build the walls. They would reach the foundations, stand for a second, then retask. There were only a few days before the deadline, so I had to abandon that and go with something that actually worked, albeit very inefficiently. Maybe I'll give fixing it a go now that I have more time!
