1) a) Ok, so how does Monty feel about me?
b) Gandhi founded buddhism, and almost the whole continent is Buddhist, and he has the Mahadiaboli, but he's at the bottom of the score screen (because he started on a jungle peninsula with me
at the beginning of it. And I had a fantastic start (6 gems, 4 riverside, and I popped Mining from the first hut I came to. And then did a ton of immortal/sword rushes.
)
2)
I think my trireme might be in trouble... I think a battleship would be in trouble there. (No WB used, but raging barbs on, and they captured Cuzco early, which was a 2-religion coastal city)
3+4) I just find it really endearing how much Ragnar and Hatshepsut like each other.
5) Oh dear, Hammurabi, what have you done? -9 from Justinian for declaring war on friends... ouch.

The window says Montys Cautious, but the scoreboard says he's Annoyed (and worst enemy).

@ Choxorn & anyone interested:
By the time I wrote the nomination message, I expected it to come out just below the "ghost axemen" pic.

Not really. I was up against Suryavaman, and given the chance, Sury will rush you with 80+ stacks of ballista elephants (he started next to me and had 2 ivory sources in his BFC and well as stone) and catapults with a few swordsmen thrown in, and he will hog EVERY single wonder in the game. For some reason he always does that, even though he's neither aggressive nor industrious. I do not like Suryavaman II at all. He is hard to keep good relations with, too... he has double the negative for refusing to help him or give him tribute, or refusing to stop trading, blah, blah, blah...
And on the other side I had Saladin, who is protective, builds units quite well, and founds a bunch of religions. Plus, somehow all of his cities (well, all 5 of them when I came over to visit) were on hills. CGIII/Drill I archers are NOT fun.
Past Sury, there was my old friend Monty. Actually, he wasn't that bad this game. He declared war on me when I had already pulled my two just-victorious 12 units stacks with 1 GG in each towards his borders and backed them up with a medic III GG and a few catapults. There was a bit of back and forth over the first city I capped, but after that Bismark and Augustus jumped in the fray on my side. I am amazed at how well Bismark did... he captured a city with 2 axes, a spear, a sword, and a chariot.
So anyway, I was surrounded by 3 formidable wartime enemies and a tech/wonder freak (that's Gandhi). So I think it's only fair that I got that start.
It isn't fair that I got all that beautiful land around my empire, but I fought for it.
High sea level maps with 18 civs are so fun... ever notice how there are a lot of resource clumps around capitals? Well on this map, they overlapped. I had one city with 2 copper sources right next to each other, 2 iron sources opposite each other, 1 plains ivory, 1 corn, and 1 pig. Wonder powerhouse. Hagia Sophia in 16 turns without marble.

The year is 1902 AD and he (Farsight) is discovering physics. Now look at the trade table. Get it?

Ah. Now I get it. Why don't you try a level-up?

I think the only way to be certain that you get all the religions in the one city is to have only one city. I saw a write up someone did on that kind of thing once. A thread in this forum somewhere, sometime ago...
Getting 5 in your capital isn't too hard. Getting the other two is doable, but my growth was stunted enough as it was. (See sig)
