What's HBR? I'm trying to figure it out...
Once again it seems like you've done a good job, hotrod.

Hotrod talked about the very nice, very mobile combo of Impi and horsemen- the horsemen for attack, the impi for defense in transit and leaving in captured cities.
I take it hotrod did not hook up to the iron north of us, something I'd been thinking of doing but unsure whether to waste a settler in the arctic or waste a worker on a colony build. If we capture a Persian iron town (should be an early objective, there is one fairly close to our position) then a few swordsmen in the mix might not be a bad thing.

No didn't get to the iron source yet there were many other more productive cities to be had first. The capital should get a settler out quickly to claim that iron. We are still short of works, I did lose 1 to barb horseman that came out of the fog 
.
The last city I built before the war is in trouble of being taken by Persia I didn't have any available units to get to it before it got overwhemled by persian archers.

1. 875 BC Warrior kills another barbarian outside the walls of Isandhlwana
850 BC Impi killed by barbarian camp in the north.
Offturn: Intombe Archer>Temple

Offturn: Zimbabwe settler>archer
5. 775 BC Nada.
6. 750 BC More barb slaying in the north, where a settler heads to iron.
7. 730 BC Mpondo founded at south horse tile river mountain setting.
Another barb camp dispersed by Barbarian Slayer.
Offturn: Zimbabwe Archer> Impi
