Northern warrior went one extra tile East as I could just bairly glimpse the water but will now go back west. We can see the edge of Demogyptia's borders to the south.

6 turns to completion of our first settler and 2nd settlement.

Well, you now have the roleplay minimap, so we could either send the southern or northeastern warrior to go make contact with them. I say the northeastern, so the southern can continue in that direction.

Discovered a Spice Resource. Looks like the Neu Demogyptians found a Settler in a hut as I don't see how they could have built a Settler and second city otherwise.

Either that or they have a great food resource (like wheat on flood plains) so they can start building a settler early.

Got the Wheel, but neuDemogyptia already has it and it does us no good in trade.

The "H" tiles (two of them) show where the Horse resource popped up. I marked three sites for our first cities, all three sites are on a hill adjacent to a river.

How about the Central city moves SW 1 tile...(Same effect you want, but no overlap) ?

And what if the western city moves North 1 tile.
You dont get the city on a hill, so defense bonus.
You also dont get the gems in the border until a temple is built.
but....
You get the bonus cow tile immediately
And the horses are also immediately in the border, and you dont need to waste a worker.

The eastern city is a little risky, but we dont really know the land yet...I prefer to let our warriors explore a little more.

Are we still going to have "Forts" ?
I used this technique (thanks for the idea GhengisFarb) in my last game.
I ended up on cornered a tight peninsula so it happened out of necessity really....but it did work.

With human opponents, it may be more important to have a land grab first. Against the Emperor AI, I usually only build 2 extra cities before expanding by conquest.

Moving the Central city would crowd out city sites along that coast. I think we decided to go with overlap as we want to cover all our tiles. I specifically want these first cities on hills with rivers for defensive and growth reasons. We will probably go to war quickly since Demogyptia and Lux are so close by and there isn't going to be much space for cities on this map size.

There is no way we can get a Warrior in our capitol before they raze it if they choose to do so. I'm moving the nearest warrior back to the capitol as fast as possible.

(Remember when I wanted to keep him in the capitol?)

	Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

The mistake was not that we explored with him, it was that he went too far. He should have headed back for our capitol as soon as we saw the LI warrior.

Our Capitol is lost. We cannot stop them from doing it and they should do it if they knew what was best. We should sell the barracks there the turn before they Raze the city.

Our only other option would be some shrewd FA deals (highly in their favor). Panzer and GF, its up to you.

	Tired of ads?

Their warrior only will be able to raze it after the next turn. We'll see. Besides that (if we survive), we will want revenge... A nasty revenge. They can raze our capital, but I'm optimistic. They'll not do it... right?
Oh, well... They'll do it.

Btw, BigFurryMonster sent me this message in 29/12/2002 (I only saw it today):

Hello!
Lux Invicta greets you!

I send this to you since you are one of the GoW members who are online.

I see that our Civs are about to meet in the PTW Demo Game. It would be nice to establish some contacts, if that has not been done yet.

If you like, we can email about this, and maybe work out a tech deal? We currently have the save, so maybe we can set something up. I created a special email address: GloryOfWar@rutgermooy.net that you can reach me at.

If we should speak to someone else, please let us know.

Let us hope for a bright future together!

He is moving back the minute we saw their warrior. It only showed up when it popped into our radius.

They don't seem hostile and we have given them a 2 for 2 tech deal.

GF- If we get the save during the weekend, I will be completely unable to play the turn. I have Drills this weekend and I have to go away from my computer for them this time. Sorry.

PS- Pretty fancy new avatar, if I do say do myself. And it was done with MS Paint.
