Currently playing a fractal map, Prince level, as Hammy. I share a landmass with Qin, Augustus, and Lizzie. No other civs in sight yet. Liz found Hinduism and everybody converted. Now, we're all happy with each other. Unclaimed land for further expansion is about gone, I have the biggest military on the continent and would like to start whittling down the competition. I'm afraid that back stabbing one is going to cause the others to dogpile on. My tech situation is good, but not great. It's AD680, and I'm starting to stack phants, swords, and cats. What do you do when everybody is happy with you?
Side note: I blew a golden opportunity around 500BC to own the continent. Once we went OB, if found myself as the only one with axes. Liz and Auggie didn't even have archers. Qin would have been tough with protective archers, but I probably could have taken him. This would have resulted in me being isolated on their ruins for a long time. Would be interested in other peoples thoughts on this.
