Just now coming up for air. It's 11:24 est. I started at 1:30 a.m. est. Slept through alarm, oh well. Chose Poland, standard,continents on prince. settled three cities and assyria was forward setttling right up to my borders. Got mt. sinai in borders, so went with the pantheon four faith bonus on natural wonders, also got rock of gibraltar, so busting out faith like mad, so my who le continent is catholic and I'm the mfing Pope! Was getting a LOT of culture right away so went with it, started producing great artists/writers/musicians like crazy. beelined to caravels and met everyone and hosted world congress. by that time brazil and I combined in a war to push assyria back a few notches, puppeted a few of its cities. first world congress I had catholicism deemed the world relilgion, much to the other continent's chagrin. they also brought in worlds fair, won that. then I propoased arts funding, everyone was happy with that, it passed easily. Now I have forbidden palace, with world religion and host so I get 6 delegates out of a total of 19 for the next WC. Just need four delegates to do whatever I want and my best friend, brazil, has three...On turn 286 I'm cranking out 400 culture per turn (result of worlds fair prize), 46 tourism per turn, 83 gold, and 381 beakers. I can win any way I choose. Definitely playing King next time, but this is FUN. the intrigue around the WC is very cool, I look at the countdown number every turn thinking "is it here yet? is it here yet?" Well, gotta go to work for a few hours, then I'll probably crash.
