Greetings,
I am proud that in Trips absence we were able to carry on the torch today and play for 4 turns.
At the beggining of 2070 we traded techs, and were able to get Iron Working, Mysticism, The Wheel, and Alphabet for the cost of 46 gold and 3 gpt.
Our troops, by the order of Uber, crossed over into Persian controlled territory. Xerxes approched us and demanded we remove them, and we agreed. The troops were removed next turn.
We continued exploring in all directions and discovered a blue border, possibly Germany. We also found 2 deposits of Iron, one to the far east and another to the west, near France. We have discovered how to ride the beasts known as horses, and have realized we have large amounts of them in the tile north of our city.
Turn Log:

i've looked over the map and i've also pondered using war chariots.
i feel it would take too long, so i am going to push foward with case pink/teal. our first assault shall consist of archers.
As i started making one of my "colored" maps for easier viewing, i again made my "jungle road" on the map (the red tiles).
it's 6 tiles to France but they seem boxed in between jungle and mountains, so chariots would be useless after a while. also note that Rheims is completely surrounded by jungle, inaccessible by chariot.
it's 8 tiles to get into the "American Plains" for lack of a name, and if america is to be attacked first, we should have washington and our chariots could reign free over the lands.
The "German Mountain Chain", again for lack of a name, may prevent chariots from heading east, and we do not know what lies in the west. more scouting is required.
eventually, we will place cities and roads along the area anyway, and this would also allow us to colonize the "American Plains" a little bit faster.
As the SMC, i'm just stating possibilities for our armies. I believe that chariots are not an effective weapon on this map, laiden with mountains and jungles. I'm providing the quickest and easiest way to get chariots out, for a golden age and a quick, cheap, efficient attacker.
One day not too far away we may find that large grasslands lie to the west, and chariots may be a great unit. Again, right now chariots aren't useful, but times may change 
i'll have more maps later, i have to go away for a few days (college orientation). i have mentioned it a few times, so it shouldnt be a suprise. i'll be back late thursday or early friday.

In fact we found three sources of iron. One to the far east and two to the west. One at the north of France and one to the south.

The Thing

It almost seems that we are playing on a small world instead of large. Like trip said there many civs in the neighbourhood.
This can be an advantage, since we can tech whore early and we can conquer civs faster which means more tech, gold, cities by means of extortion!
A disadvantage is that other civs can expand relatively unhindered.
But I think it overall a good thing to have other civs close by.
