This turn will probably come while I am away for the weekend so I am posting instructions for someone else to play the turn.

Keep Comet in the area he is in to defend Funky Town and the workers near Suntanland. The warrior in Las Vegas can pop out if needed as he is not needed for happiness yet.

Mr. Rogers finished his road last turn. Move him W(4), which will be SW of Suntanland, to start a road in that tile. You are probably thinking that you want to irrigate the tile he is on. That tile is not needed yet. We need to get a road between Sunland and Funky Town and start irrigating those tiles. So move him W.

Sunshinia and Las Vega both grow this turn. Put the new Sunshinia citizen on the flood plains and the new LV citizen on the forest. Sunshina will be working the two mined bonus grassland tiles and the flood plains. LV will be working the other flood plains and the forest. LV should now finish the barracks in about 11 turns.

We need to be very careful about barbs. They have horseman and could pop out of the fog and move in quickly against our units.

Bro needs to be very careful. There was a barb horseman in that camp (see turn 57 pics). It would be nice to move him NW onto the plains and up to that other mountain, but the plains could put him in range of that horseman whereever he may be.. He could stay put to watch or move SE onto the hill. Use your judgement.

Gary should move S along the coast. We can not get any closer to the LL border per our agreement to stay at least one tile away.

Ralph should move SE onto the hill to keep the coast in view.

Before you pop the hut with Geoge check the Science Advisor. We should have Math from our trade with Tab. If we don't have Math and we pop the hut if we get a tech it would be Math and that would be a waste. If we have Math then the next techs would be CoL or Lit, both are the same cost. Cross your fingers for Lit. I don't want to get a city down there and although a settler would be nice it is a long way home through barb infested territory.

Results from turn 58

We are at 117g (-1gpt) and should have Mapmaking in less than 12 turns.

WF in Sunshine adjusted to work 2 mined plains, 1 floodplain.
WF in Las Vegas adjusted to work forrest and floodplain.

Ralph moves SE
George SE (goodie hut results in barbs!)
Gary's Bro NE (horseman has left the hut, but moving E would allow Gary's Bro to be attacked multiple times)
Gary S
Comet moves S, N (just checking for barbs)


Mr Rogers WEST


Horseman in Sunshina in 1 turn


Gary's Brother avoiding trouble


A shot with Ralph and George together on the same screen. Their expeditions are starting to merge, we may want to choose another route for George.

Thanks Togas. I see the new city and the growth in Sunshinia and Las Vegas has helped our research rate.

Let's give Bro our strongest thoughts. In addition to the adjacent barb warrior that horsemen could still be lurking close enough to attack him.

Togas, if you look back to turn 56, third post, you will see a couple of posts by me and BF where I posted my idea of having George and Ralph continue along the coasts until they meet up then swing in to work that center dark area. There is enough there for both to explore for a while.
