Preflight turn 210 1500 AD - Make peace with Bismarck straight up. We need two musicians to fill the Hermitage. We can buy one with faith and well have another in seven turns. We need to crank up the tourism. I see we created a landmark rather than an artifact. Personally, a landmark doesnt do anything for us. Landmarks give culture not tourism. If we didnt have a slot, then just stop the archaeologist before completing and build a museum.
There are only a total of 30 archaeological sites left on the map. 15 are hidden. We need to complete the exploration tree to get to them. Is that something we should pursue?
We can also go the rough and tumble way, essentially take the tourism items through war. I think thats what consentient calls violent culture. I think that may be the only way we can win in a timely manner.
Bismarck is presently taking Shaka, stuffing him in a locker, and stealing his lunch money. Germany has 16 and Zulu has 10 tourism. So together that wouldnt give Bismarck any edge.
There arent too many things left that will help out tourism. The CN Tower will give us free broadcast towers. Researching the internet will double tourism. The National Visitors Center will make a nice bump. Hotels and airports will also help.
It may be too late for artillery to be effective. I would suggest that we head towards rocketry and get some rocket artillery. We could quickly roll up several civilizations and reduce the number of influential statuses we would need (or is that stati?).
What does the team think? Personally I would go for the last path and get our tourism the old fashioned way steal it.
