LP got Astronomy and has scary 2000 GNP and I suspect he doesn't have any tech chosen. That probably means ~1600 raw beakers.

frown LP finished Sistine Chapel on his Moai city.

We got Education so I started to build universities on our best commerce cities. Goal is to get also Qxford up in capital soon.

I've also got visibility to all Adlains and Mackotis cities. Adlain's defenses are very weak. The shot contains defenses in the border city towards Locke. I've even warned him about coming dogpile, but he hasn't been whipping anything. Not looking too bright for him.

Mackoti's army is hidden somewhere. Way back he had a stack of cats near capital and they're probably still somewhere there and now he seems to be adding Knights. This might be pretty bad for Luddite and therefore to us also.

Collecting gold for a change. Universities built up in my core. Asl doesn't need one, but it gets it fast.

Hard to choose. I'll give you 7.


Bureacracy beefed Capital - Currently on max hammers borrowing commerce tiles to Asap.

Heroic Epic city with 3 settled GGs. Currenly building mounted units since they're only ones I can get 3 promos.

National Epic city. I'm maxing out the golden age bonus. Unfortunately I don't have philo so I can't run Pacifism to get even better GP rate.

Moai city is really awesome when running golden age. I'm also hoping that on some day it would generate 1 Great Engineer for Mining inc (probably unrealistic because of national epic city).

Former Greece capital. This is also in mainly hammers setting to churn out university.

Holy city - Trying to grow size 14 and then to max hammers to get University.

Best production city currently borrowing hammer tiles to Noms

Thanks mate, that was really interesting and useful information. Thanks for going to the trouble of your additional edits ... illuminating.

Yes, LP is way ahead by game score, do you think he is unbeatable? Assuming not, what is your plan to win the game? If you don't mind to share.

Ta.

Our chances of winning are very low unless we can stop LP. So that is the current main goal and thinking about potential ways to victory before that feels premature. Nevertheless I still build up my empire to be ready to post war time e.g. building Universities instead of Cats and CKNs. So in case of succesful campaign we definately have a shot at winning and space ship is probably the most potential way.

I converted to 100% research to finish Banking.

LP adopted Representation and has 2600 GNP probably heading to Democracy.
