PFT
I negotiate a deal with Ram
I also trade with Monty
This takes us from very unhappy to just plain old unhappy.
I make peace with Copenhagen.
I hire some sci specs in London.
Hastings, Wealth > Seaport
Coventry, Wealth > Worker. I also buy a WB to re net the fish.
1
We gain an SP and I adopt Rationalism and we enter our turn GA!
I start to send our SotL on sea patrols as they heal as I want to know of any AI troop movements as soon as they happen.
I upgrade one of our remaining Tris to a SotL.
2
IBT Cathrine asks for 18gpt! No, I don't think so.
3
IBT Harun asks us for a PoS against Oda. Hahaha. Go away you idiot.
In fact this prompts me to call up Oda and sign an RA with him.
4
Caesar is worried about our troops near his borders?! We have one SotL there!!
I say not to worry.
Coventry, Worker > SotL
Warwick, LH > Temple. Our next SP is over 50 turns off so I wanted to try and speed this up.
5
As one of our SotL is scouting north of eygpt I start to find lots of AI caravels
In fact this was a similar story all along these northern waters.
6
Our GA comes to an end
A deal with Oda ends so I renegotioate it.
7
Rifling is in and I start up to Economics with Chivalry.
8
Askia is worried aout the troops on his borders. Seriously what troops? I hate how stupid the AI is sometimes.
I tell him not to worry.
Monty demands one of our dyes. Since we have no one to really trade it with right now and it won't change our happiness level I say ok.
Hastings, Seaport > Theatre
9
Just some unit movement
10
Casar completes the Louvre.
Our Peace deal with Harun runs out.
Coventry, SotL > Rifle
Info
Demo. Basically top dogs here. Maybe when we hit positive happiness we should grow our population a bit.
Eco. Trade routes are paying for our buildings which is nice. Going to finsh some Theatres next set so thats a good chance to grow our population levels soon.
The AI seem to be about ot start a second wave of expantion. I've seen quite a few settlers roaming around. We have to decide if we want in on this. I'm ok with a little "light expansion" but it doesn't seem that necessary ATM. I think we just need to keep uping our GPT and our culture to speed the next couple of SPs (in Rationalism IMO).
Tech wise we should carry on heading towards Big Ben and then think about going for the UN.
I've been wondering about Askia and his holdings on the Eygitian island. If we could get some PoS against him and maybe get Rammy to DoW we could steam in and take his capital first and then his other cities on the island. Just an idea.
All in all a quiet set really.
