preturn: so we have the GL, but two things make me sad. First, none of the AI have Monarchy yet. Second, we do not have lux and pay 60% luxury rate! This plain sucks.
And we do not have iron.
The bad thing is, the closest AI, Korea, is even worse. It has no resources at all.
IBT Korean archer loses to our horse without a scratch. [1-0]
(1)330BC: We are short of workers and I start one.
We kill two spearmen and capture Pusan and a cat. It's size-1 so I keep. [3-0]
We meet Germany and it's up Feudalism but lacks Lit. It's to the east of Hittie territory.
I think Greebley allows establishing embassy in AW, but I do not do it. Germany has 8 cities.
I swap capital from settler to JW. We need productive cities. Let other towns produce settlers, and we are big enough anyway. We can capture AI cities.
IBT Hittie and Carthage both land some units. Hitties complete Colossus.
(2)310BC: Our horseman does a good job and kills an NM. Our JW then kills an archer and gets a slave. [5-0] I then kill the Hittie archer on the mountain and promote our horseman. [6-0]
I wake up a JW fortified next to the valcano.
I am really worried about the landing, especially those NM's.
IBT Carthage lands another NM at the same location (next to Dzibilchaltun).
(3)290BC: RNG favors me again as our JW kills the NM. Isn't NM defense 3?? [7-0]
IBT Korea is fighting someone? One of our curragh is sunk by barbs.
(4)270BC: IBT archer loses to horse again, and another NM lands. [8-0]
(5)250BC: kill two spears and capture Cheju. [10-0]
This time RNG doesn't work and we lose one horse and one JW and kill the NM. [11-2] We need cats in our core. I switch Calakmul to cat.
IBT Iros start Sun Tzu's.
(6)230BC: Iros and Hitties have Republic and Feudalism. Still no Monarchy.
(7)210BC: we get Republic and Feudalism. We need iron!
(8)190BC: nothing.
IBT it looks like Hitties and Germany are at war, as I see lots of Hittie units outside of German territory.
(9)170BC: nothing.
(10)150BC: move stack next to P'yongyang. It has iron!
however it's size-1 so will probably be autorazed but we do not have a settler ready yet. We could switch capital to settler losing 4 shields. Or we could just use colonies.
Note: Seoul will build a worker next turn. Use it to create colony on the gems.
Be careful with Carthage's boats. Build some horses and cats for zone control.
