(1) that's what you get for trusting aggie: Taejon riots!

(2) Suwon founded. I order workers to road a useless mountain next to Namp'o - do not be surprised, I just want to save our units two river crossings in case of war! Also mining hill next to Pyongyang.

(3)

(4) haeju founded.

(5) an English galley nears our lands. Now our capital starts a military unit ASAP - a warrior, but as is (1 reg warrior defending, and Cheju undefended) it is an invitation for a sneak attack.....

(6) follow this with ordering a Spear

(7) mined hill shaves 2 turns off Great Lib, but slows growth (which is OK atm as next growth would be without effect on completion of Library)
too late I realize I should have moved the warrior from Hyangsan to cover Cheju

(8) I decide to go for the Tundra city NOW, with the settler who has reached Taejon a turn ago. It is quite probable that the english galley holds a settler, and others can't be far behind. So i want to grab that spot ASAP in case it has oil e.g. We can do without corrupt cities down there, but we can NOT afford to blow a chance on an important res needlesly in a game where we must be honorable

(9) our capital is now adequately defended and starts a settler, 1 warrior off to replace the one that went to Cheju from Hyangsan. english galley going around the southern tip
Temple of Artemis in Chitzen Itza (!)
Mausolleum in Athens(!)
this may be good news! the AIs may well out-cascade now and we get a huge head start towards any GLib attempt by them!

Cheju can kick the scientist, but Library is due next turn anyways and I can't find a better place to put the scientist, so I let him be for this turn

(10) english galley runs towards the island now - perhaps our settler is on their plannes spot????? ;)
China gets the Great Wall while the Englsih try for Hanging Gardens (!) and Lighthouse (!), as does Abe!

Taejon has grown back and gets the scientist as riot control.

And guess who is building it? England! That's a big city compared to its other 2 wonder-building cities - size 5! But lots of desert. :lol:

This year's Wonder Loving Award goes to Liz!

well, it must have been missing out on The Wall that got the English scrambling up the walls thinking about building other wonders :lol:
 
This game will stay on patch 1.15.

EDIT: The other continent is already in the Middle Ages. This can be seen by looking at the wonder screen. Both the Hittites and the Maya are obviously medieval. Normally this should not make a big difference though. It looks like we will have full effect of the TGL.

I suggest a few more cities as shown on the dotmap of microbe. Besides that we have to make sure that we get enough horses, workers, libraries and (later) marketplaces and aquaducts. Also: let those curragh uncover as much as possible from the map. They are going NE at that is absolutely fine :)

And please: be honorable :love:
