Greece has a nice defensive unit - did you play more of a builder game or go for typical early aggression? I thought this would be an interesting Pangaea map - what do you think of it? And how did early contacts, trades, etc, go?

I just remembered that I finished the Ancient age of this game. I was frustrated when I realized that I had moved the settler away from the +5 food starting location! When the Ancient Age finished I had only 10 towns, but 3 settlers too. The good news was that the ancient age ended in 1025 BC.

My military this year was infinitsimal: 3 warriors.

We'll see if there is time to finish.

my start was quite good in this one, but i won't have the slightest chance to finish in time. from what i saw around 1000bc, i planned to try an all-out horse attack for a fast conquest.

Too bad you didn't have time to finish: would have been quite interesting to compare your "all-horse" approach with my "all-knights" approach.
