Can you give me a nice overview shot of each section of land, with resource tiles on? Thanks in advance.

Here are the most important parts of the currently visible land. After capturing the barb cities there are 3 high priority cities in the main continent + I want 1 island city ASAP to get +2 trade routes.

Barb city did grow. Trying to take it with the Chariot in picture and get also Heroic Epic unit in the process. To be on the safe side I'll heal next turn.

I see you have decided to go MoM.

It is highly likely yes, but I'm still collecting gold and can change my mind.

Great wall was built, but GLH is still hanging. I'm pretty much forced to take a shot at it now.

Mainly for my own use - GLH plan:

83: 20
84: 29
85: whip 29 + 50 + 9 (move to chop)
86: 28(OF) + 10 = 38 (chop 1)
87: 38 + 10 = 48 (chop 2)
88: 48 + 8 + 144(chops) = 200

If this doesn't work, most of the chops will be spared to MoM.

I appear quite mediocore in demographics. However I've quite a bit of hidden potential. 2 of my cities need border pop really to shine + barb city will increase my positions quite a bit.

GLH plan is still running. Intresting tidbit is that in quite similar setup i.e. PB8 GLH landed alredy ~T56. Quite a big difference. I guess it wasn't worth such a big sacrifice in that game i.e. players have learnt from previous games.

Wonder hogging will momentarily hit my economy since I had to work hammer tiles instead of cottages in my capital. I really hope I can get it though. In a map like this most of the cities will be coastal. In the beginning it is just worth 5 commerce/turn and ~20 when I get 2 off shore cities and plant few others. However its output will gradually increase and I wouldn't be too surprised if it would bring me over 100 commerce/turn at some point of the game.
