	Turn 113 - 330 BC Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

I will be away again this weekend. I can play again Monday morning. Based on the pace of the game we may not have a turn before then.

Not much happening while we are in anarchy. In the west Comet and Dasher should go after that barb camp. In the south both Nova and Apollo should fortify to heal as long as no barbs appear next to them. Zeus should move SW to he is next to Apollo. Next turn Apollo and Zeus will start working their way south together. Mars should head to HoS and head south from there. That hoplite near Disneyland should also be working his way south. We may need him since there is a horde of barb horsemen running around in the south.

The two workers on the grassland W of Sunshinia should split up. One should move to the unimproved grassland S of Paradise and the other should move 9-9-9 to the hill on the river SW of Happy Hills. Two workers on the incense hill should start roading.

Happy Hills will grow and have unhappiness. Change one citizen to a tax collector. Sunshinia has the lone scientist that will provide the minimum research.

Just chatted with Tabemono. They will be sending us their WM, their contacts (except for Monkey), and Feudalism. We've already offered Monotheism. We'll accept. Deal closed.

We agreed on a 20 turn NO TRADE for the techs.

Please send our WM accepted to Tabmono at the end of the turn so that they can get an update on barb camps.

One more note:

Tabemono wants to set up a trade network, either via road or via harbor. I went in and discovered that we're building a harbor in Funkytown and let them know.

We may still want to build a road in the north in case of future military involvement, but the harbor will definately help facilitate future trades.

330 BC turn played

Python added contact with Python and Monkey (I thought we were not supposed to get contact with
Monkey) along with their World Map and Feudalism to our offer of Monotheism. They accepted. Accepted.
MAST offers us their World Map accepted. Accepted.
We now have contact with all civs.
I sent back WM offers accepted to both Tab and MAST.

There is a new barb camp in the SW, on the coast W of our horsemen in the south.

MP and CoD are both in the Middle Ages. Both need Mono, Feud, and Engineering.
Monkey is still in the Ancient Age. They need Poly, Republic, and Construction.
LL does not have communications with Monkey. They need Lit, Mono, Feud, and Enginieering.
Tab needs Engineering.
MAST needs Mono and Feud.

Suntan Settler moved N.
Hoplite Jimmy moved NE to hill city site.
Funky Settler moved E.
Woke hoplite Huggy Bear. Moved E.
Worker Charles moved to grassland S of Paradise.
Worker Paul Bunyan moved to hill SE of Happy Hills.
Workers Andy and Greenjeans both started to road their tiles.
Mars arrived in HoS. Moved S.
No barbs in site in the south.
Nova fortified to heal.
Zeus moved SW.
Apollo fortified to heal.
Comet moved S, S to attack barb camp in the West. Lost 1 HP. Took 25 gold.
Dasher moved E, N.
Workers Jeeves and Standbridge started to road the incense hill.

Happy Hills grew to size 5. Changed one citizen to a tax collector to prevent disorder.

Treasury at 407 gold +1 gpt.
Anarchy for 5 more turns.

Compared to … our military is … their government is …
MP – weak – Republic
Monkey – weak – Despotism
LL – average – Anarchy
CoD – average – Republic
Tab – weak – Despotism
MAST – strong – Republic

I apologize for my lack-of-knowingness...

Are there any plans to build some vet Warriors for upgrade to MIs or perhaps Horses to Knights with Chivalry coming soon?

We have a wad of cash, might as well find a way to employ it. Knights are 80g each, and that's only 5 of them, whereas we could get ~7 MIs upgraded with what we have. I guess Knights would be better.

Just thinking out loud...

My plan was to use the cash to rush improvements like marketplaces with some going for unit upgrades.

Makes sense. We have 101 shields in the bank, in that case.

Can you forward me the latest save again. I need another update.

Wow ... our score absolutely sucks compared to the other teams.

However, we are the tech leader and so long as we can keep MAST and Tab friendly, we'll be able to continue our expansion and growth.

LL is nearly out of expansion room. That could cause them to go to war with either Tab or MAST. And the war overseas with Monkey is good for us as long as it remains balanced.

Trading us contact with Monkey was a mistake, but it wasn't Tabemono's doing. I say we take advantage of it and see if they want to buy some tech. However, giving them military aid or loans would probably be a bad idea. I don't want to make any enemies overseas.

The turn report is in error. Instead of "Python added contact with Python and Monkey" it should say that "Tab added contact with Python and Monkey". Doh! How could Python give us contact with Python.
