Nice to find we have a game and a goody hut. That forest looked like a single tile.

Actually, the Pyramids would be a better target. Consider masonry.

Why the Pyramids, Commander Bugs?
Re Pyramids: supports the Expansionist trait, and may trigger early GA, not a bad plan for a 100K victory (fast, cheap and early temples). Mysticism leads down the Oracle path, not a bad choice either, as it supports the REL trait, 
In essence both are good but IMHO the Pyramids is better as it never expires.
The Capitol is not a settler farming site, but has lots of early shield potential, so settin it up as a AA wonder builder after the first settler or so is a good plan.

Time to start packing in those cities. RCP 3 5 7

will get it tonight, but i'm not sure i can play
about city placement:
5 (pink) would give us only 2 cities, i suggest 6 (green) for 2nd ring. shifting from 3 (blue) to 4.5 (EDIT: meant 3.5, sorry) would net us another city in first ring.

Isn't 4.5 spacing the same as 5? Don't you round up when counting distance?

Theres no rounding in rank distance. See War Academy: Ring City Placement
EDIT: checked the forums and greebley (see post #41, page 3) is right. RCP numbers are rounded DOWN, so 2 and 2.5 are the same.

How many turns should i play?
It will be at least 10...
2950 BC (1):
spot brown boarder
salamanca grows->increase lux
road furs
2900 BC (1):
russians are up mas, WC & BW. we're already backward.
IBT 2850 BC (2):
temple->warrior
russians start pyramids (why build when you can conquer?)
2800 BC (3):
reduce lux
2710 BC (5):
war->settler
2670 BC (6):
furs online
2590 BC (8):
spot blue boarder
get 25g from the zapotec
2550 BC (9):
meet germans, up BW & WC (have 6 cities)
russians have 5, plus they have wheel now
2510 BC (10):
settler->rax
found deserted village
notes:
i wanted to keep salamanca at decent size, but until we got BW or WC, more then 5 shields are pretty useless (exept for rax). was tempted to send the warrior to the choke, but used him as MP.
EDIT: yes...10 turns...
shall i play the first turn another 9 times?
It will be at least 10...

Agreed!
Built Niagara Falls SW of blue dot, probably the wrong place....started temple.
Met the Persians coming out of Germany and bought Masonry (75g+1gpt) then swapped Masonry and 10g+2gpt to Germany for Warrior Code. Started research at minimum on Writing. When the barracks finished at Salamanca built an archer, then started another settler.
The southernmost scout reached Land's End in the south while the eastbound crossed into Germany and out the other side.
Gsermans, Persians and Russians are all building the Conical Granary, Germany and Persia are building the Colussus.
Here's to Bugsy, the next betta player....
