That's pretty awkward to be ninja'd all things considered.

You colonize your own coastal area. I've already got Harbors and Offshore Platforms in all my coastal cities giving me extra commerce and shields. :mad:

True!
I didn't think about it like that. Two DIFFERENT people having the SAME book readily available does have some strange odds.

In some cases, particularly in narrative prose, writers omit explicit topic sentences because they would clash with the tone or style of the paragraph.

"Evidently some wild wag of an oculist set them there to fatten his practice in the borough of Queens, and then sank down himself into into eternal blindness, or forgot them and moved away."That's 23 pages into The Great Gatsby? I thought it came a lot earlier than that.

You will learn about the many advantages of OOD in later chapters.
