Keep exploring.
Denyd - good job finding the Greeks and Mayans.
Ankka - figure you'll need two archers for every defender and figure you'll see three defenders. There will be two there and they'll rush one as soon as you declare and move next to the city. Then stand by for some counterattacks from some archers.

Gather the archers on the mountain next to Gerovia as they are built. I will be attacking the city from the hill. I would also see is you can have one or 2 spears (horse/chariot will work) ready to disconnect the road from Bactra to Arbela. If the iron is not connected yet, I can kill the worker on the mountain. If not, I will need to disconnect it from the rest of Persia.
See if we can buy Alphabet before the wheel arrives. I'd try to use the wheel in a trade for Writing. Save me enough cash or establish an embassy with Babylon. They can help put the squeeze on Persia.

Pretty much everyone already has the Wheel - we're at the bottom of the heap in tech (not that is matters very much this game) - we should probably go for Iron Working next and try to conquer the world before pike show up

we got IW buddydenyd said:
i did a twofer (IW and Myst) during my turns. and yes, everybody already has those imho, alpha and math are the way to go. if we get alpha and no one has writing yet, well, maybe that changes things but for now, our best bet is probably math. we need to know how count all those pretty cities anyways

I'm thinking if we know Iron Working, why are we messing around with archers, then I my brain turns back on and I realize we don't have any sources of iron (yet) Looks like we in the build archers and settlers mode, we should be able to hit Persia for 3-4 cities (razing most) and then try for a quick peace (getting a tech). Then hook up the iron and see how these Gallic Swordsmen do.

Actually, we need to figure out the ballistics of rocks as they are tossed from a catapult.

is there any chance to pinch the iron with a settler?
denyd

It would probably cause an immediate war with Persia. The iron in adjacent to a Persia city and we'd be stealing a primary tile, an offense X-Man would not tolerate if he didn't have to (and he doesn't).

I don't think we could poach it with a settler. Slings and arrows are the only way.

ok, just thought that maybe a town on both sides of the mountain would do the trick. probably just as easy to take it from him with an archer rush. just hope they accept peace after losing a city or 2.
Well, I played the turns.
1275BC [Preturn]: Check to see where we are going... reset personal prefs.
No one is willing to trade us the Alphabet, sorry Texan. And we will be getting the wheel in 1.
What has been done, most of the guys are annoyed at us.
One thing I notice is that we lack workers badly. only 3 and a slave? Not nearly enough.

Nice work Ankka - Lets hope the AI beat each other silly while we get iron and beat up Persia.
