Nice set WD. Glad to see the trades worked out The calendar trade and peace with Bren are both key. AP is fun too!
I'd go ahead and settle both cities. I marked both during my set, and my vote for the dye town is on the south bank of the river between two dyes.
Narri the trades you outline sound good. Is Liz still Shaka's worst enemy? If so, we shouldn't trade with her. Either way be sure to check worst enemies before opening trade (though we may as well go ahead and trade with Bren's WE).
On the AP: We should work to convert our cities, Washington's, and Asoka's. If we can get OB with Bren and spread Islam to them all, he may be our opponent instead of Shaka. I don't think Bred would vote for either of us in any case. But he is so despised that if we can make the election between the Celts and Byzantines we will be a shoe-in for victory. It would rule out a religious war though and could prompt forced peace. If we control it though we obviously get to choose which votes we want to bring.
I think after the election we are due for 3 regular votes, so I don't think another election will be up for a few turn sets.
