Since the Portuguese have completed the pyramids and have only 3 cities, it would appear that we have an opportunity to capture that important wonder.
Once we have dealt with the Dutch, our forces will be in the North. If we were to get four or 5 galleys ready to pick them up, we could sail to Portugal quite quickly.
This may sound a long way off, and there are pro's and cons to this kind of venture. However, if you consider that the Indian war will start in 5 turns, and the Dutch war in 12 turns, then in only 25 turns we will be looking at this opportunity. How long will it take to get 5 galleys built and to the north of the continent?
Long term, it leads to an interesting scenario of taking out France and then being in a position to eat China from both ends at once.
What do you think?
