Its worked fine for me. I can go at it now, so I guess this is a re-got it.

Lost the turnlog, so here is a quick recap.
-We enter the Middle Ages and draw Mono. Maya and Greece are up all visible on us, England lacks Engineering, IIRC.
-We concentrate on building infrastructure. I set our research along the upper branch to get us to Universities more quickly.
-I have assembled a small strike force outside of two Mayan towns in the East. We can swoop in and take them with little trouble and get peace again relatively quickly. Every extra town will help us cope with our unit costs.
-We have two galleys out exploring. The one on the East coast can porbably make a leap of faith to the East while the other one circles around. If the one doesn't make it, I wouldn't invest anymore time in trying to contact the other landmass. With Cop's in production, we'll be hearing from them soon enough anyway.
-I have Berlin on wealth at the moment, as we really don't need more units. We could build a cathedral if we wish.
I think thats it.

I can't remember exactly, but I think they may lack Theology as well. If that is the case, then I would keep pushing towards Education. Getting those Unis up will help get us back to tech parity a lot faster, espescially if the FP gives us a nice effect. We could then use Theology to try and trade for Feudalism, but that might not go over very well. I think we're better off staying on the upper branch anyway if we're going to go with builder mode, so that after getting Unis we can get Banks in production as well.
Two cents:
1. Don't build wealth. It's much more efficient to build units and disband them in other cities. Because wealth -> cash rush means 16 shields for 1 shield (before economics), while disbanding means 4 shields for 1 shield.
2. Don't count on enigeering to trade for feudalism, because the latter is too expensive in trade.

No, was busy. Can play today, nothing to do.
Heroes- It's 4 for one before economics, and you're comparing apples and oranges here.
Building units and disbanding them is like building 4 shields for one shield. Wealth is like 4 shields for one gold.

Own said:
I know that. Wealth 4 shields -> 1 gold, and cash rush 4 gold -> 1 shield, so altogether you gain 16 shields -> 1 shield if you do both. Well, if you swear that you won't cash rush and will use gold only for science, that's another story, but can you resist it when being republic?
Pre-turn- Hasn't been mentioned by anyone, but we can get silks from England for just iron and dyes, hope I'm not doing anything stupid, but I accept, so lux can be lowered 
, oh, that's why, we don't need it. Actually Berlin is the only city in danger, so after it finishes Cathedral we're good to go (10 turns). Let Berlin borrow a cow from Hamburg, food box full building duct.
1. Minas Morgul Temple > Cathedral. Nuremburg galley > err... Don't know what to build, so I say courthouse :undecided . Dover lib > courthouse. Send a horse to a glue factory in Konigsburg.
2. Hamburg duct > temple. New Konigsburg settler > courthouse. Heidlburg Marketplace > temple. Dial up the Maya. Declare war
! Send units in. First sword loses to a stray javelin 
but the army cleans up.
3. Our galley discovers America . Actually, just a small island, hopefully we can go further. Leeds settler > courthouse. We take Tulum 
. We take Coba . Now it's time to wait and sue 
. We built some stuff this turn but I forgot about it.
4. [
] Mayan boat sinks ours discovering America [/]. Brandenburg Lib > courthouse. New Bremen worker > courthouse. Mayan dropping is by Berlin, but my sword fails to kill him ![[pissed]](/images/smilies/pissed.gif "Pissed [pissed]")
. Not cool, not cool. We have one defender in Berlin, so I just pray to the RNG gods. I even sacrificed a *elite archer to them.
Stopping here, almost reached the image limit. More to come...

I put some cats as bait around, not really expecting him to go after them, but he does, and I kill him, yes! A large stack is coming towards Dover, but we got em contained. Unfortunately, we'll lose an unguarded city next turn, but we can take it back with luck next turn. We get an FP 
. Lower science to 10%, Theology is in one and we're gaining 133 :coool: .
6. Mayan's burn New Bremen
. We have a settler to take his place tho... Kill some Mayan stackage. There is a big one coming at us, I think I greatly underestimated them. Big mistake to go to war this early on my part. If we sign in Greece, we've got to fight for 20 turns then. Ha, just found when I lost to a Mayan elite, then generated a leader. Probably gonna rush a walls in their size 12 capital. Finish Theology, start on education, due in 8.
7. Berlin and other cities riot cause of the war
. It hasn't been that bloody.
8. Thank goodness, I was about to lose Dover and Maya still wouldn't talk, but they did on the IBT before they attacked, and I happily accepted 22 gold.

Right. Own, forget for a minute about CivIV and post the save, please.
Huh? I did, 
... something is rotten in the state of Denmark.
Found the problem. Was late last night, tried to edit with the attachments, but I was out of attachment space, but didn't notice, and thought I'd posted them. Here they are now, problem solved.
