The Gods speak in riddles my people ... I've had a dream ... of a gift wrapped in pretty blue ribbons ... I am confused ... I need more of the potent dreaming shoots to help make clear this strange message ... maybe an extra chorus of death screams will also assist the process ...

A report run in from the west ... the 3rd Jaguars have cleared a city site by razing a nest of hill savages ... those that survived have been put to work ... an Aztec settler is on the way ...

Have a look at the Look at the F7 screen and you will see what I have planned. We now know each other, even thought it cost me some money. GPS.

 

[James I]

Speak to your Millitary advisor.....

Gps

Done a bit of tech trading this turn.....and sent you each a shiny dollar with my head on it

I will listen to any fair offers you may have

I will also buy captured workers from you.... if the price is right

 

[fe3333au]

The Mayans speak of spending money so that all tribes are introduced ... The Aztecs are vexed at this boasting statement as we traded Inca contact for technology from the Moche ...

We also hear that the Mayans have begun a great project to construct the Temple of the Moon ... these blue garbed people are like the proud monkey, full of braggings in their chatter ...

Soon a new Aztec city shall be errected in the western hills ...

GPS to the Incans. The might empire of Mayans is growning quite well. It seems that the gods are well pleased.

I have a few images that should please the lurkers.
Here is the wonder screen. It over flows the page on the game.

Here are the Top five cities. Notice that there is no Incan city there.

Spoiler lurker :

Here are the staticists with regards to my to my wonder and the cities they are being built in.
The Temple of the Moon. It is being built in Palenque and it will take only nine more turns more turns to build. I MM it so that the two wonders will be built together. That way, I should have the two wonders all for myself. Befoe MM it was being built in eight turn, but i gave my Capital city one tile that was mined and that increased the time for Palenque and decreased the time for Chichen Itza. Before Chichen Itza was going to do it in ten turns.
My aim for this game is to win via culture, but winning by any means should do. I am quite light in regards to military, but that will change soon.

Research.
I am researching Construction. It will take me four turns. Once I have done that, I will turn off research while I finish off he Temple of the Moon. Since i am the only Scientific civ in the Game, I get a free tech once I have researched Contruction. Being Scientific and Industrious is a great help in this game.

Cultural Statistics
City. Total Culture. CPT.
Chichen Itza. 181 8
Palenque. 82 3
Tikal. 60 5
Copan. 53 5
Bonampak. 34 3
Yaxachilan. 33 3
Lagartero. 17 3
Total Culture = 469
Total CPT = 30
I have a massive 150 total culture difference ATM from my greatest rival. That is almost a a 50% gain over my nearest rival.

 

[James I]

I must apologise to you both... we are a man short at work and i have been doing extra time....... so Civ hasn't been first thing on my mind...

I will play as soon as i get home tonight (in about 5 hours)

And about that lurker report..... The first time in the game my capital hasn't been number one since about turn three and you post a screen shot.....

 

[James I]

Strange, my city rankings show Cuzco as third.... different POV i suppose

GPS

The Moche grow more threatening..... but soon we shall be ready to teach them the lesson they have long deserved.

 

[fe3333au]

We continue building and growing
