The 4way could become interesting if I respond to Horse's serious provocations, I have generously allowed him all the space to the north of my capital as I had enough space to the South, but he has abused my generosity by building cities whose boundaries overlap with my cities including one so close to my capital, it overlaps with my capitals boundaries. If he dares to make use of any of those overlapping squares, the city will not remain his!!!

we don't play diplo trev, so please spare us the role playing speeches, just speak plainly

a 2 minute timer would be good start D - we can adjust if action requires it - maybe we can salvage the game. finbar and I were bored witless last night.

The game really has dawdled in the last couple of sessions. I don't know why. The civs aren't gigantic, there's no war, and there would have to be dozens of caravans out to justify the time taken. Maybe try the timer for a session to see who's bothered by it.

Just got back from lunch. Five hours of it. Sitting under a pergola on an olive farm overlooking the Tuscan hills. 35C but cooled by a gentle breeze. Highly recommended.

Not yet. Mariella, our source for all things local, hasn't seen her source yet. But, just to be perverse, I parked our car outside our front door yesterday.
