[pb84] Wow, we getting started?

[superdeath]

that's kind of brutal if you aren't playing an ORG leader. maybe justified given sumeria's other advantages though

eh, considering America is still Giga-broken.. idk if it was justified imo. But im a tad bias.

Overview from a turn or so ago. The city marked "barf" really screwed with my city-placements, so i had to go more defensive on his border. probably would have been more "ideal" to move the desert hill city (F.E.A.R.) 1SW to be able to share food.. but i cant stand letting a riverside grassland tile go to waste. im sending a galley with a settler to the fur island, and ill have 1-2 workers ready to be insta-shipped over from the horse city. Things are looking alright. As much as id love to hit bing with a bunch of HA's, i think ill out-tech him and rush to knights.

Looking good

Do you have a feel for how the King of the Hill victory condition will play out? Do you expect to be the first to capture the center, or if not then who would you expect to make the first move? And what level of military tech would that be at?

Or are you ignoring King of the Hill and just pursuing standard victory?

due to distance, im going to more or less ignore the king of the hill portion of the game, unless it becomes easy to capture. AS... whomever takes it instantly puts a big "hey, declare war on me or else" and i dont really want that from everyone. 

i feel someone might try around cuirs/cannons era. Unless someone like bing or xist goes for it early. If left alone, i think one of them could try it with a stack of maces/cats.

Bing basically cratered his econ.. i think i might get pretty close to knights before he gets currency. Stay tuned.
