Diplomacy

LL sends spices unaccepted. I send them back accepted. We should talk to them and get them to accept a deal so that we can start using the spices next turn. This is fairly important for some of the cities to keep order.
MAST sends WM accepted. I accept, send back our WM accepted.

City Management

Las Vegas finishes Worker, begins another.

Settler Sunshinia III (W) builds city "Sexy Hippies," starts CH.

Rigel switched from Library to Granary - will be a good Worker Pump in the future.

Las Vegas switches to 6 food in order to grow next turn... at size 6 it needs another luxury or a specialist!
Suntanland switched off of irrigated grass - same growth, more shields.
Funky Town switched off of 2 mined plains back to irrigation.

3 shields rushed in Funky Town for 12g.
8 shields rushed in Disneyland for 32g.
5 shields rushed in Suntanland for 20g.

Note that 4 Worker Pumps are being set up: one in Paradise, the second in Las Vegas, third in Funky Town and fourth in New Sunshinia (will be used as a pump when rebuilt). I will likely add more as time goes on as we need a bunch of Workers now that we have so many new cities and so much to do.

Future rushes:

Library in Friendship City, Sol, possibly in Disneyland, Rigel and Sirius
Courthouses in Pleasantville, eventually Friendly Alligators and Rainbow Connection

Other Plans:

Disband 2 Warriors next turn in Sunshinia, then 2 the turn afterwards. 6 SPT nets 10 shields and a Worker each turn.
Sunshinia will be disbanded, rebuilt 9 of it's current location, and the 2 Workers it produced will be added back. It will then begin a Granary.
Need more Workers!

Summary

5th in GNP at 224, 6th in MFG at 63, 6th in Prod with 272.

Dropped to 4th in land area before building another city - likely it's MAST that's on our heels.

1345 gold in the treasury, making +94 per turn. 10 Horsemen (currently built or building) upgrades will cost 800g.

Theology in 11 turns.

Our army is average with MAST, weak to everyone else.

Destinations for all of our Settlers

Settler Sunshinia III - Builds a city far to the west, 4-4-7 of Mardi Gras. Starts on CH.

Settler Disneyland I - Builds a city in the southwest, 1-4-4 of Carnival. Starts on Harbor.

Settler Las Vegas II - Builds a city in the SW, on the horses tile near the fish. Starts on CH.

Settler Suntanland II (1) - Builds a city on the western peninsula, 2-1-1-1 of Mardi Gras. Starts on CH.

Settler Sunshinia IV (3) - Builds a city 9-9-9-4 of Sirius, far to the south, mainly to claim the land before MAST gets a chance to. Starts on CH.

Settler Funky Town II (3) - Builds a city 3-3 of the fish tile far to the SW.

Some of our cities will continue to produce Settlers to fill up more of the land. Cities with slower growth will focus on military units temporarily in order to protect all of the land we have amassed. Some of our cities are beginning on infrastructure builds, mainly cities in the south which will be near the new core and don't need to work on CHs. HH in the north will work on an Aquaduct after it finishes the FP. Beyond that, Library and Market and then possibly some wonders.
