I take a look around, things are looking good. After talking with Hammurabi, I know there are other civs on this island or close to this island. He has 0 gold, mostly likely meaning hes traded his initial pile away.
Inherited turn: 2190BC Set governor to emphasize production in all cities and enabled the default for new cities box. This doesnt turn on the governor, but rather will make sure at growth that each new citizen will choose a tile with high shields. This can add vital production that could shave off a turn or two worth of production. I do not send warrior escort with settler since barbs are set to sedentary.
MM Seoul, growth in 2. Target is size 6, and I want to time it so that the settler completes just as the city grows to size 7, but never let the city actually grow to size 7.
[1] 2150BC ZZZ
[2] 2110BC ZZZ
IBT Persepolis completes The Colossus.
[3] 2070BC - I decide to send our warrior garrison at Seoul to explore the northern fog. There may be some choice cities in there, and I think this an acceptable tradeoff for a higher luxury slider.
[4] 2030BC Lux to 40%
IBT Pink warrior spotted to the south. We meet France!
[5] 1990BC Talk to Joan, she lacks pottery, up masonry, the wheel, warrior code. Hammurabi now has iron working.
Trade pottery + 87g to Joan for masonry. Bit pricey, but shell have pottery soon anyway, so we should get what we can out of it.
Pyongyang founded, citizen set to work a forest near a river, so it is now producing 3spt and will make a curragh every 5 turns. We need the contacts more urgently than growth.
We spot another landmass across from Pyongyang.
[6] 1950BC Settler à Settler @ Seoul
Spot cows to the north, so I decide to send this settler there. This settler is renamed
[7] 1910BC Spot Joan and Hammurabis homelands.
[8] 1870BC Joan and Hammurabi now has mysticism.
IBT An orange warrior pops out from the fog to the north!
[9] 1830BC - We meet England. Elizabeth is up The Wheel, Warrior Code, Iron Working, and Mysticism. Wonsan founded near cows, set to build warrior.
[10] 1790BC I leave all units with movement for the next leader.
Notes:
IMPORTANT: Let Seoul grow, dont change anything. It looks like it will grow but wont complete a settler next turn, but once it grows the citizen will auto-select a plains tile (+1spt) and the city square itself will get +1spt at size 7, making sure it will complete the settler next turn. However, after this, I believe it is impossible for Seoul to become a 4-turn settler factory, at best it will be able to act as a 5-turn settler factory, however, it will require heavy micromanagement for optimal growth and shield production. Micromanagement at Seoul is VITAL.
Send Pyongyangs new curragh (named The Dauntless) up north to explore. Another one may be necessary to go south around the new landmass to the east.

What graphics editing program does everyone use? I see dotmaps with those nice little red dots or blue dots or green dots, and with words in one solid color neatly written on the images. I'm using Paintshop Pro v7, but I don't think it's very good.
Paint Shop pro is very good, actually propably only one program beats it... Adobe Photoshop. I have Irfanview, it handles cropping, resizing, but you can't paint with it... If I need to, I use paint to do that and then save it as a .jpg in irfanview.. I don't have the money to get any program that's not free...
And I think it is possible to set PSP to write with only one color... can't remember now how to, though.
Nice turns, BTW.

Nice, joining you.
The starting tiles look a little bit tricky. We should create a new dot-map to talk about our city spots. The two lux down south have to be our hot spots next. We loose too many cash on lux.

we seem to be progressing well, although it certainly looks interesting as the land all about our core is going to desert and plains, so we're going to be pushed for production.
v nice commentary around the turns chen, and if we can get the curraghs out and get contacts then we can get to the meat of this game - trading intelligently for techs. Thinking this will be interesting as we scrabble for settling space and then nuke everyone in modern ages.... my first time using nukes tbh

IHT: 1790 BC
Start our worker roading the newly irrigated tile nw of Seoul
warriors explore, and the dauntless heads north
IBT
turn 1: 1750 BC
Seoul: settler->settler
settler heads south. Thinking of placing a city near the furs, and another one up near the fish and game.
Do a diplomatic check. No 2fers available and we have 32 turns on writing at min.
IBT
zzzzz
turn 2: 1725 BC
scouting
IBT
turn 3: 1700 BC
Wonson: warrior->warrior
sending this warrior to seoul for mp and allowing us to lower luxes
IBT
England starts the oracle
Blue warrior appears out of the fog in the north near our curragh. We meet spain. They are on par with everyone else. Everyone is up Wheel, WC, IW and Myst. Except France who is down IW. No one will sell us IW to make the 2fer.
turn 4: 1675 BC
MM Seoul to grow and produce settler in 2.
IBT
zzzzzz
turn 5: 1650 BC
Pyongyang: curragh->Granary (vetoable) the shortest build is 5 turns, so if things change, I can change this in time.
IBT
ouch... disease hits Seoul right as it completes it's settler. Its down to size 3 now.
turn 6: 1625BC
Seoul: settler->settler
mp arrives and luxes reduced to 10%
Pusan founded SE of Seoul next to the game. Gets fish when borders expand. Set to temple.
our second curragh is exploring the island before heading south.
France has IW now, and we can buy it, but for pretty much all our cash, so I hold off.

The settler arrives where I was going to settle with him.
For some reason, my printscreen button isn't capturing the screenshot. Sorry, I can't post one.
we definitely need some workers, and a discussion on future city placement.

Sorry for the delay, but no i'am finnished and we can go on:
1500BC: Wonsan builds worker -> granary (could used for settlers and
workers)
set lux to 20%
We are totally behind in techs, so i trade math <-> 197g+9gpt
with england
1475: Seoul build settler -> warrior
I contact spain but they have nothing for us.
found Namp'o and start with warrior
I trade mystic <-> math+1gpt with france
1450: nothing
1425: nothing
1400: nothing
1375: nothing
1350: Namp'o build warrior -> temple
1325: nothing
1300: nothing
1275: found Cheju and start with temple
Seoul: settler -> settler (we can build one every six turns)
i trade warrior code <-> 7gpt+35g with Babylon
I hope with the gpt trades we can prevent us on our neighbours attacks.
