btw, if anyone had any idea what my strategy is, it's to show 1 HA (already done) and 1 catapult to sunrise, to show him what I techs I have (he does not have Alphabet), so that he doesn't invade me.If he did, it would be a blood bath and not help either of us unless he managed to invade and take me out completely. Which I seriously doubt.

I will then try to do the same to Cyneheard.

And amongst all this, I'm going to spam cities. Luckily I have decent tech, because I need to get the following techs in some order:
  • Calendar (Spice, Incense)
  • Currency (trade routes)
  • CoL (cheap court houses for extra EP and seeing tech)
  • Monarchy (if I don't build Pyramids, which I'm still considering)

After this I'm pondering a straight Gunpowder run via guilds, maybe even to Cannons?

I have 5 cities, in 2 turns will have 7, up to a total of 17, and I think I can get them. I need to, because otherwise I'm going to get crushed by Cyneheard, and we all know he has the motivation to get me out of the way instead of letting me build up. OTOH, he has Whosit to contend with, I have sunrise. Not exactly a problem for him...

I do know that I have the most land, but Cyneheard has 24 pop to my 21 (will equal him once 2 new cities are down I think).

FWIW, if I hadn't lost that city, I'd be up to about 7 cities by now, 10 workers, just 5 turns ahead in general. I'd still be way behind Cyneheard though.

I suppose you could rename them 'Hoho I have an HA' and 'Fear my cat' smile

See, the AI isn't completely retarded smile

SM, I think I'll do that next turn, and when I build a cat. sunrise will probably get quite pissed when I do it, which should be fun. I know he hates the mind games I play with him...

Construction in, making 73 bpt at -16 gpt...I have 8 gold saved, and now have 6 cities, 7th in 2 turns. Now I just need a billion more workers...perhaps HG would be good?Yes, it would be, soI need a couple mroe settlers before those workers, then I can slave out those workers from new cities that just gained a pop...

Turn 65. Lost 1 city already. HG due in 6. By that time will be up to 10 cities.
