First of all I'd like to say it was a real pleasure to play my first set in an SG for some time. Horray!
Inherited Turn
I move the Scout using its last MP.
1
IBT a barb attacks the warrior thats on our horses. He dies for his efforts. Fool.
IBT Liz settles York.
I start the Scarcher back to help deal with the barb camp near Sukho.
Now this is the bit your all probably waiting for. I settle Si Salchanalai (and thats the last time I write that!) but were did I choose in the end?
I opted for white dot. Optional and NotSure put a good argument together and I agree that the minor extra sci from more jungles isn't that important. I hope this doesn't cause any falling outs
I start a Monument in Si Sal. CdP will cost 165
as things stand.
2
IBT Gandhi destroys the barb camp by Sukho.
IBT Rammy enters the classical. I forgot to see if he had RAs for sale so I'm not totally sure which tech he took.
Our warrior thats roaming in the west finds some Ivory.
3
IBT India and Eygpt become friends.
Sukho gets its chop and the GLib is now in in 9 (Philo in 7).
I take a risk with our scout and kill a barb in Sydney's territory.
4
IBT Rammy asks for a DoF. I say yes. We're now part of a diplo triangle. Good stuff.
IBT our Scarcher gets hurt by a barb. Last turn he uncovered a barb on his last MP. Boo!
I should have done this sooner but I give Sydney 250 to become friends. I was spurred on by the desire to avoid our "friends" asking for all our money. The food from Sydney means that I can swich a citizen to a hill in Sukho and GLib is now coming 1 turn faster. Go go Glib!
5
Not much to say really....
6
IBT our western warrior is attacked by a barb and the barb dies.
7
IBT Pyramids BIAFAL. An unmet player enters the classical. England announces its protecting Hanoi.
8
Quiet. Too quiet? No.
9
IBT England announces its protecting Warsaw. An unmet player enters the classical.
Gems are hooked up and we're happy again.
10
Philosophy is in and I set Masonry as a place holder. We enter the classical.
Heres some shots of our nascent empire.
Western area inc. ivory.
Eastern area. I suggest we get out next city somewhere near those sugars.
In other news Liz will buy our OB for 27
so she can't hate us that much.
All the AIs we've met have 3 SP in Tradition.
