	What's happening in the world of Sunshinia in 490 AD? Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

Heya Trip.

Could you post one of our latest turns for download? I'd like to be able to take a peak if I could.

No problem. Economic buildup continues, starting our military buildup now as well. Cranking out as many Workers as possible so that we'll be fully developed when our Golden Age arrives in ~22 or so turns.

I'm thinking of hooking up one of our irons soon and upgrading about 20 Knights just to boost our military power. LL is almost dead already so we need to get some security built up. I think I'll contact Tabemono and MAST as well. They'll likely have many units left over and we need to make sure they don't use them on us... I particuarly don't like the idea of having to fight Tabemono.

It's easy to assume we'd be the next military target since we basically reside in between these two teams. I'm starting to think it may have been better to go to war against MAST as they attacked LL; but, then again, it goes against our motto. :/

Let's get our Hoplite population up a bit as well.

Hoplites won't help us now. LL got beaten easily because their army was not mobile. Tabemono has 3-move Riders and we need a mobile reserve to meet that kind of threat. I have about 10 cities doing Horsemen builds right now and would like to get our army up to about 50 Knights before re-evaluating our military situation vs. the rest of the world.

We can't really attack anyone right now because our army is weak to everyone except LL and Monkey who are essentially dead (and yet we're still average vs. them). Plus if we invade MAST I fear Tabemono getting involved.

We're doing 30% sci right now, 8 turns to Astronomy and about +100 gold. We have a pretty major tech lead on everyone else in the game at this point and an enormous treasury. The only real limit on our military is getting those Horsemen out for upgrading.

I think the biggest threat is posed by Tabemono right now. We need to solidify our relationship with them at all costs. I believe we can handle MAST 1v1 if we're sure Tabemono won't attack us, but if Tab attacks I'm not sure if we can stop them. Even if we can, I think the chances of MAST attacking us are good.

In the future I think the other continent will make things more interesting. Monkey has been removed from the main continent so they'll be building up their strength economically. Perhaps we can get Tab and MAST to join us in taking the fight to them while we continue to build up economically.

Either way, time is on our side. The more turns go by with us at peace the better. I would say that we have the greatest economic capacity of any other team in the game due to our FP/Capital placement, city placement (RCP) and terrain (hills/mountains + grass). With our GA coming in 25-30 turns we'll likely be close to invincible within a fair amount of time if we can avoid a 2v1 with us being the 1...
