I thought we had agreed on Stonehenge - it makes a great hammer sink, not that we'll need to sink many with this hammer-poor start.

Yeah, stonehenge is a great hammer sink, but we won't have the tech to build it at that time. Unless we get lucky from a hut.

I don't see any particular reason we have to build Stonehenge in our capital. It's secondary (tertiary?) benefit is to generate a fast +40% cultural defense in the city in which it is built. As an Industrious civ we need < 3 forest chops to build it in a city with 1 hpt, so I see it as a more worthwhile initial project in our 2nd (or maybe better, 3rd) city when we have 2-3 workers to put on the case.

I certainly believe we can have the tech for Stonehenge by that point, and it shouldn't be difficult to pick out a location to found a city that has a few choppable forests. I doubt the AI chops forests towards wonders (or builds wonders extremely early in their capitals) so it's not like we have to be in a tremendous hurry.

BTW, are you planning on starting a new thread with the new game? That would seem to make more sense than tacking two games together in this one.
