Turn (0) 200 (700 AD)
Looking around - we are short 3 fishing boats - I will get these build and on their way to their station this turn. Our foe is no where close and I am not going walking all over Europe just to lose some units. We are slowly inching our way to a Great Prophet but, unfortunately, the city where we have invested most of those GPPs is not the one building the St. Peter's Basilica.
One question ... it seems that 40% of the world has no religion ...
