Research versus Wealth depends on how much gold we need to stay at 100% slider. With Saturn feeding us gold, we don't really need to stick to wealth as much, and we need to be averaging 375 base beakers per turn to get Education fast enough to beat Cav if they bulb into it.
To that end, we need CK to be on research to reach those bpt figures, so it's a case of tough luck, we'll have to cope with what we have.
HE goes into IS. IS kinda got hijacked with the MoM, so that if we get Lib we can pretty much get 3 consecutive golden ages, which puts us firmly into #1 position in this game. And with Kaz seemingly laying down their arms to build a little, we don't really need HE to defend against them. We can't go on the attack with them having the SoZ until we are ready to smash them in a dozen turns, around when we have Galleons and have drafted an army.
OO isn't going to starve intself into the ground, it had to give up the wheat for 2 turns to get out the settler in OJ quickly. It's going to starve at -2 fpt for the next 2 turns to get the GS out one turn sooner, working the farm, wheat and both flood plains, but that's it.
Oh, and the barbs are going to start easing up shortly I think, with the new dyes city.
and culture bombing then advancing them.
