The Question is whether you will have 570 FPs available in the short time a level 15 ARC is leveled. As in, do you have 100+ 5 FPs packs stored up?
I did say for a short while. The happiness is okay, the medals also okay up to maybe 200. But the problem is that they are both non-age-scaling bonuses.
I think the more important question is why are you trying to convince anyone that there is ever a good reason to build Colosseum?
Of course 570 InvFP is somewhat unrealistic. I was at 210 Inv FP after 2 weeks and producing 100+ Inv FP per week I suppose if I could have handled the grind for another 3 weeks? Nah. Too boring. I asked thisabout my 500 Medal Expansion at week 4:
Do you think trading 70 inventory FP for a Medals Expansion I'll earn in a few weeks is a mistake?
You talk of 'short' time and the 200 Medal Expansion. You're going to use 20 days, 40 FPs, 300 Goods, and 2.5 Expansions worth of space to get a 200 Medal Expansion?
I'll spell it out for new players who are considering the Colosseum.
You can Build the Colosseum. And in 20 days gain 1 Expansion. And be ahead 60 FP compared to what I recommend:
Put 5 FP per day for 20 days into somone's Traz and garner some Medals and Traz BPs. This is exactly how I just earned 351 Medals, 30 FP, and 3 BPs. Except it took me 4 days and cost 22 FP.
Put up 2 Taverns to get more Happiness then Col gives. Use the other half of the space in any of three (or invent you;re own, orrleave the space empty, you;ll still be ahead!) profitable ways:
1) Put up 2 Goods buildings and make 800 Goods over that 20 days.
2) Put up 2 Barracks and plunder your neighbors and make a bundle of random loot and have a great shot at PvP Medals.
3) Put up 2 Butchers and do the 24 Hour RQ 20 times netting a bunch of random goodies and a lot of Supplies.
Best part? You won't have to feel the pain of tearing down a GB.
EDIT: After I hit Ebter for this post I flipped over to my EMA city, where I had been putting 10 FP.per day into an Arc. Added 265 InvFP to the 80 I already had in to lock First. 150 FP, 4 BPs, and 3795 Medals. That'll pay the last 900 on my 4K Expansion and over half the 5K.
I activated 'Spend 25 FP RQ' while doing this. Scored 20 Goods, Coins, Supploes, 20 Diamonds, and funny! 15 Medals.
You wanna tell me more about why anyone should consider building Colosseum?
