Indeed, I overlooked that; I guess we can spare a worker at the moment, our land is in pretty good shape. Size 8 didn't come to mind because it would have taken 13 or so turns.

450 IT: Republic discovered.
- Trade to Germany: Lit, Poly, Construct, Currency, 379g
- It has become apparent that Germany and Russia are the big leaders in tech. Japan and Iroquois can give me nothing of value (5g and 1g respectively
), and Russia will only give 20g+2gpt so I hold on.
- 3-turn anarchy, w00t!
430
410 IT: German and Russian settler pairs heading our way.
390 Unit cost horrendous 56gpt.
- 5 veteran warriors upgraded.
- 5 regular warriors disbanded. why? 2gpt upkeep. 60g upgrade cost. we will not be making spending money for awhile I don't think

- NY is building a settler in 1 to steal our last decent city location (3 or 4 south of Washington) from the russians heading that way.
- a decent attacking force of 13 units is ready in SF. I'm not sure our strategy here: how many we need and what cities we're attacking. We could *easily* use a two-pronged assault of Swords/Cats/ vs Bryansk and Ancient Cavalry vs Khaborvsk.
- a galley is sitting in Philadelphia which could be used to get our horses. Maybe land 2 units now, then 2 more when we start the attack.
- gpt/science situation isn't great. do we turn off science for awhile?

It's called an acute SGitis, symptoms are forgetting a SG, forgetting a "got it", posting RaR/unmodded comments in inappropriate threads and assuming you are at war with spain - sending all your troops and attacking them - and ending up not delcaring because you were not at war with them. Symptoms also include a bunch of this smiley: 
See your doctor, he can prescribe you outdoor activities.
My bad about Delaware, I was just trying to include both fishes into its pre-expand radius. My opinion is
about the disbanding of the reg warriors. In republic, you want less troops but quality troops.

preturn - switch washington to a market. i hate those clowns, and it will get us both a bit of happiness and some gpt.
1- NYC settler > sword, Chicago harbor > cat,
LONDON completes the GLIghthouse, drat!
and NOTTINGHAM completes THE HANGING GARDENS! drat, swat and fiddlesticks!!!
i ask cathy to remove her pair from my view, and were at war, dudes
net in 4 slaves in the first stroke, removing the settler pair and those pesky workers.
again i get cocky. lose an AC to a redlined russkie spear.
IBT - germans got feudalism and want the chinese general.
now the japanese want to be "educated" so they start a Great Library. so do the Iroquis. dont they know thier history?
2- Bryansk: 2 cats hit, 2 swords walk in, get scratched (2 hp loss) and its autorazed.
move the SoD NW.
AC out of washington.
IBT - yawn. wake up and see a german settler pair on us. he is blocked so i leave him be.
3- remmember to fire that clown. now we have the russian circus in town.
IBT - ze hermans ar ze bomba. zey start leo's.
4- just some troop movement
IBT khavarosk mounts an archer counter attack. our noble heroic spear is bleeding bad but has won the day.
5- Atlanta sword > sword,
NOVGOROD finished the GREAT LIBRARY. yummy.
build Houston > cat,
too many settler pairs are rushing for the void i left so San Fran switched to settler (losing 2 shields)
IBT a russian horsie kills one of our AC. jingle jangle, cathy, see ya in NOVOGOROD soon.
6- Chicago cat > cat, San fran settler > temple,
Khavarosk was a bloody day. we killed both spears for 2 of our dear swords, but atleast we got 2 slaves. its autorazed too.
we are now running at +3gpt.
IBT - the russians are coming, and they want blood.
7- Washington market > sword, NYC sword > sword,
the russian counter:
in the west a spear, archer and settler? all flawlessly put to the sword.
in the east (seattle):3 archers (far) and 2 horses (very close) kill one horse with a lurking sword. move aa AC back. 1 tile short.
IBT seattle is taken by that horse, and our sword slain, taking 2 bows with him.
as a result Washington riots.
8- hire that clown back for now. and we get a lawn built in front of our cave.
retake Seattle (now back to size 1, thank you very much, cathy!) hide the worker in town.
up sci to 40% saving us 5 turns, now running at -1gpt.
IBT- the troops i have swung north did the trick and the russians are running west.
9- Boston temple > cat,
decide to wait for the stack to reform near Yakutsk.
build Buffalo near the oasis. rename it to Las Vegas. > worker.
IBT- the japanese ploped one on OUR side of the Rio Grande.
kill a foolish russian horse.
10- Washington sword > temple (can, and probably will be changed. i just HATE clowns)
Yakutsk has 2 spears defending.
consolidate and crush. then head to Novogorod and the GLib.
this is what you might need

Neat job holding the fort, SW. I guess the coded jive speak you give to troops is indecipherable to russians and it gives us a tactical advantage that they don't know what to expect. Nice.
Breakout!
Shut off research for the moment and until we can get libraries in the core
Rearrange some citizens to get Washington back to happy by working river fields and boost income
German settler and spear turn back.
In 130BC Yakustsk falls, no casualties.
From 130BC to 30BC heal up and march towards Novgorod, killing a couple of Russian longbows on the way.
In 30BC after careful checking of the map sell Bismarck ivory for many moneys.
In 10 BC we are ready to assault Novogorod.
Our cat operators are blind and miss, an elite AC dies to a spear wounded by the first AC, then lose a sword but three attacks later and the Great Library is in our hands.
And in 10BC the knowledge comes rolling in,
1) Monarchy
2) Monotheism
3) Feudalism
4) Engineering
5) Invention
I start the march on Moscow once the troops have healed.
I have been skimming settlers out of Chicago and New York, troops out of New York and Washington, and set up Atlanta to farm workers.
The two galleys have been sailing the east and west coasts looking for new friends. Our continent is pretty ignorant and poor....Germans know Theology and Gunpowder.

Pre-Turns: Terriffic job guys. Moscow will fall and things look good from then.
After Moscow, I'll head west for silks, then east for the dyes in Yaroslavl'. Horses can wait until we get chivalry, which I don't suppose to be all that soon.
T1: Yakutsk Worker->Lib, Philly Temple->Galley, Seattle Temple->Lib.
Novgorod FLIPS, we lose a veteran sword taking it back.
Cathy would give us the harbored horse town, but we can get much more through war, so the show goes on.
IT: Theology + Gunpowder from GLib
T2: MDI from Washington, Worker from Atlanta, both now work on MDI.
IT: Novgorod flips again.
T3: A lot of troops taking a nap at Moscow. Lost a sword attacking a longbow
IT: The viets complete Sun Tzu, we learn Chivalry.
T4: NYC MDI->Lib.
IT:
T5: Boston harbor->Galley, WDC starts on Knight's templar
IT:
T6: Find some pink borders to the far east. Orange bordered Gloucester founded on a small island SW of us.
IT:
T7: Pinkies are the arabs, down Feudalism and Monotheism.
IT:
T8: 4 Russian towns left on our continent; we now have silks connected and a source of saltpeter is in our hands.
Meet Lizzy of the english, she is up education
IT:
T9: Fights.
IT:
T10: We now control the whole northern Russian empire. Still up are 3 towns to the east, among which only one will be a threat, and 2 to the west, which we can probably buy if we decide to sign peace.
Germany has horses available, but since our effectives are sufficient to conclude the current war I didn't bother. We found the english and the terrorists, the viets should be farther up NE along their coast.
Knight's templar in Washington could be changed to library and give us no lost shield. It is possible the germans beat us to it, but their town has a pretty much lower shield output.
The last big russian town could be difficult, so you might want to attack the southmost one and wait for artillery reinforcements for Yaroslavl'.
