Start my turnset by re-allocating the EP weights. I also take Chichen off of its Library and put it back to barracks. After the barracks finishes we can whip some units.
Move an axe, chariot & Holkan out of Thebes.
T159 - 245BC
Thebes comes out of revolt. Whip away anger with a barracks
T160 - 200BC
A little careless of me, leaving an axe by itself. Hatty takes a WC out of Helio to kill it. But it pulls out a defender, so it's time to strike.
T161 - 185BC
Hatty goes after another axe, but this one is one defensible terrain and wins.
Assault on Helio:
lose (char v arch) - lose (axe v arch) - lose (axe v axe) - lose (axe v axe) - win (holk v char) - win (holk v char) - win (holk v char) - win (axe v arch) - win (axe v arch)
Science goes to 80% to get Alphabet in 2 (we will beat Hatty to Alph!)
Re-arrange current builds to complete on Alphabet.
I think we have enough troops to press on and see what Hatty has left.
T162 - 170BC
Thebes' borders pop & Wang Kon asks for OB.
T163 - 155BC
Science to 0%! EP to 30%.
We have failed in the quest of the War Chariot.
War weariness starting to creep in. Whip away two angry people in Lakamba & Chichen Itza for our first spies.
T164 - 140BC
T165 - 125BC
Shaka demands clams and I give it to him. Cancel this deal on Turn 175!
T167 - 95BC
Confucianism FIDL -- somebody has CoL for us!
T168 - 80BC
Spy arrives in Gordium. Will have maximum discount on Turn 173!
Overview of new and old Egypt
Memphis is defended by 5 archers and a 6th is just outside. All our troops are unmoved outside the town (fortified for turn's sake.) We could shift all our troops to Elephantine and try to capture that, but I propose we go for peace. War weariness is starting to creep in & Hatty is researching Iron Working. So why don't we save our EPs against Darius for later infrastructure techs and invest some against Hatty, stealing IW from her? Besides, we won't be able to do anything with that jungle until after we get IW ourselves.
I started running out of things to do with workers. I mostly was building cottages and roads.

EDIT: One more thing I forgot.
Which tech do we want to "research" first? (Those rates will go down until the spy hits max discount on Turn 173.)
