- - - Now we're cooking with gas! Another 500 years have passed, and things are quite different than when we last checked in. The two Early Conquest wonders have been built (Lighthouse, Sun Tzu's War Academy). The Greeks have just been persuaded to vacate the planet. As far as our foreign minister knows, we are alone again, but our Military command tells us we are homing in on the location of Cordoba (presumably Spanish) and we have exploring units heading to the East and West in search of new targets. Since we have all the techs that we
need, the tax rate has been turned around to 70% taxes and 30% science to rush more goodies and bribe cities.
- - - Counting the captured Greek cities, we have doubled the number of cities in the last 500 years, essentially filling our continent and most of the island to the North. We are working on occupying the Greek island, and expanding outward. The original core cities are mostly done building settlers...that duty now falls to the newer, outer colonies.
