Thanks for your input guys, it does really help.
I am quite a long way through Calendar now so I am keen to finish it. The other benefit of it is swapping to Agrarianism for increased food on farms, that in turn means quicker settlers but I take your point that there aren't a great deal of calendar resources to hook up. Perhaps it was a
move but that is why I am trying to air my plans nice and early so we can discuss them.
So, after calendar we could do Ancient Chants-Mysticism for elder councils and God King. Quite possibly waiting until then before revolting the agrarianism too.
New tech path:
Masonry-Agriculture-Calendar-Ancient Chants-Mysticism-Mining-Construction-Exploration-Education-Code of Laws-Writing-Mathematics
The problem with the Sheaim is that, as has been said numerous times already, they can own us at will for a long time. Nothing can be done really until Life II mages or Gargoyles.
Diplo is the way forward.
