	T70 - 1275bc Tired of ads?

From the plan:

T70: CM mines, JD moves to join and mines as well. Settler team moves to Silesia2. Stooges move 2. ES irrigates.

I did all of that, and more. I also shuffled some of our workforce (WF) around.

Since Izz is building a worker, and only needs 3 more shields to complete, I pulled a citizen off the wine hill and stuck it on a grassland tile (this costs us 1 commerce in Izz). I then gave Silesia the wine hill for this turn. I also moved WF in Swindon - it was using an undeveloped grassland tile and there are now 2 roaded grass tiles it can use.

I moved our scouts and some of our picket warriors. I also moved our northern archer 4, as the monkey warrior cannot see the pythonian road crew. No point leaving him fortified on that forest tile.

Barracks complete in Silesia. I selected a spearman. It will actually complete in 6 turns, because next turn Izz gets its wine hill back. I believe we will have horses hooked up in less than 5 turns, so we can switch the build to a chariot.

I switched CoS to a courthouse, as a placeholder for a library.

I just noticed that our southern archer is named Forbidden Poet. Shouldn't that be Frustrated Poet?

Perhaps we should fix that next turn.

I've been looking at the jungle and it occurs to me that we may want our next city to be built 22111 of Swindon, instead of 2211.

2211 is on a hill, so extra defense, and it's close enough to Swindon to lock up the cultural borders w/o any cultural expansion.

22111 is on flat land (jungle), but it's a river tile (no need for aqueduct down the road. Plus, looking at where I might want to put cities on the other side of the mountains (SW of Ciao), that site might make more sense.

Oh, I just noticed that we didn't get any diplo offering from Monkey. I'm replaying the turn to include an "unaccepted" offer of CoL, so they can respond with Lit and we can finalize the deal next turn.

Oh damn, forgot to rename FP. Heh.

Yes, lets go for the river city site if that's best for the general pattern.

And then we could build another city 22233 from Swindon, on the sea? Ok for me.
We'll also need some Workers down there. It's pretty heavy forested.
