10 turns or less from here on it.
Preturn - Analyze the situation. Move settler south to replace those arabian cities

establish RoPs with everyone on the other continent. I do this all the time in my solo games to improve relationships. By getting RoPs, I can see that the celts have 0 gold and 0 gpt due to full research. This would explain why they have fuedilasm. Too bad we cant buy it. That would make one hella trading deal. O well. Change all temples to libraries. Cuts down completion time by 1/3. Press the button...
Turn 1 - iznik riots. My bad. Much cheaper to set a taxman there. Other then that, not much.
Turn 2 -not much happenin
Turn 3 -settler built in bursa. Has 5 shields and food. That means worker factory!
Turn 4 -istanbul builds settler, starts on marketplace. Iznik builds granry, starts on aqueduct.
Turn 5 - worker movements...
Turn 6 -uskadar builds library starts on courthouse. Can be changed if so desired same thing at kafa. .
Turn 7 - hmm arabs demand ivory. HA! He was only bluffing. Bursa continues building workers every other turn.
Turn 8 -

the arabs declare war on us.

they just demanded ivory and got denied. Were not prepared for any kind of war, but maybe the rng gods will smile upon us. One vet warrior mutilalates a vet spearmen. We capture two new arab workers

our reg warrior offs their reg warrior. We kill one more spearman on hill. Im done testing my luck. 3 wins, 0 losses! Switch lots o production to wartime stuff. Build horsemen when shields would hav been wasted.
Turn 9 -hmmm. Not many arab units showing up. Our vet horsey from instanbul offs an arab spearman. Movin in forces for the kill. Iron to be hooked up soon...
Turn 10 - our brave warrior attacks across a great river and kills 1 reg spearman in Fustat.
Tonsoffun, I leave u with arabias forces whipped, and the door to fustat wide open. Keep building warriors till iron is hooked up, then mass upgrade to swordsman. I temporarily took bursa off of worker production. When there is peace, get it to size five and start pumpin those workers. Good Luck and have fun!
