Eggs said:I think it'd be a good idea to go straight for alphabet now and start trading techs. We can at least get Pottery that way and the Religious techs that we'll need sooner or later. Probably Iron Working although we should probably be careful about giving up Alphabet too soon if we don't need to. I have no idea how soon the AIs will be getting it if we don't hand it to them.
It's a shame Frederick is Creative. With the lack of hammers in sweden the only way I can see us getting another city in there properly would be beelining for a Great Artist (well that's what I think anyway, not very experienced with this either ). That might be a decent option if we're going for Alphabet anyway. Most other civs are probably more busy worrying about their neighbours and getting military techs. Could make for good trading.
edit: Great Artist either from specialists from a theatre or the free one from Music (or what tech is the free one from?).
We might not get to Music quickly enough with our expansion though. We could also go for CoL after Alphabet for the courthouses. And there are probably other things we need .

Sorry to be the hassle peeps.

Yep I'm the English, but I see what happened. Your playing on Rye's I'm on a different one.chriseay said:Huh? We're you playing as the English? I didn't think resources could change on a scenario map like this.
chriseay said:Turn 14 - Pottery comes in. Isabella asks for Open Borders. I want to, because I want to get Buddhism. Everyone on the continent is Buddhist.
shinku said:Religion spreads without OB, as we got Buddhism in Nottingham that way. Maybe you were thinking about missionaries, since Isabella tends to spend the entire game spreading her state religion (but will also increase her shrine outcome). If she has never enough boats, she could save us the hassle of spreading the religion ourselves

So Louis has the pyramids? Yet another reason to go after the french...
What's the power graph situation? Seeing as Catherine is a Financial/Creative leader and has the great spans of Russia for herself, we can expect she has lots of land (thus, production) already, and she's not too far behind in the tech race, and since she's been at war with ol' freddie, she probably has a lot of soldiers; might be a better idea to annex Louis first, then use HIS cities (and representation for +3 population) to pump out the military, use open border through Germany and munch on Russia.
Then afterward, Germany is surrounded with english lands and is easy pickings
...but that's just what I'd do
