Heya, I got it but probably won't get it out till Saturday night, as I have studying for exams to do. Most likely will only fit 5 turns too since it looks like we're dealing with quite a large empire after "liberating" much of England.
Remember to use veterans for the hard stuff and elites for the easy ones, as we're fishing for GLs and don't want to lose our elites. Speaking of which, do we have any?

Sorry you guys, I think I'm going to have to drop this game. I just got notification this morning of something that I need to handle at school, and with exams to study during the weekend (and to take them next week) I probably won't be able to get back to this game for quite a while. Aye, have always read how RL could be a big issue with SGs but didn't really know it until now. Wish you guys luck with this SG, and maybe I'll be back in time for a few turns. For those who are also in the Wiz03 game, I'll still be in there as that game (Tiny map) if it comes back to me again.

Offer peace to Liz for WM, Cambridge (don't even know where that is), 9g and 60gpt. I don't know where she is getting it from or what will happen when she runs out of money.
I can get spices from Persia. I'm tempted to have a little war with the Iroquois.

1310AD:
We have 50 native workers and lots of slaves, but because they are all engaged in long term mountaineering projects I cant get started on railing this turn.
Nothing else happened, but I am going to start a war with the Iroquois in a couple of turns, just to knock them out of their stride, and to try to generate leaders. They are at war with the persians and a lot of their forces are moving north. Once they are a bit further up I'll declare.

End of turn notes.
1. Canton, Beijing, Shanghai and Tsintao are conscripting rifles every turn. This should continue until they are down to size 7. Do not conscript down to size 6 because the town will lose its defense bonus. The conscripts are being distributed around the towns where the Iroquois knights are.
2. Workers are being organised into gangs in our core. These gangs are to rail the tiles around Sparta as a priority, and then the core should be linked up by rail.
3. Corrupt 1 shield towns are producing workers to help rail. These should be organised into teams of 3 and they should rail in chain gangs to link the outlying cities together, working towards the core.
4. As workers finish their current tasks, they should form gangs for railing.
5. Research should be towards Scientific method. TOE will enable us to get Atomic theory and Electronics. This will allow hoovers. By this time we will have researched Industrialisation. When we complete scientific method we should research industrialisation and at the same time start factory pre-builds in our core.
6. The war against the Iroquois should start next turn. I have included a couple of screenshots to show where I would attack. The purpose is to generate leaders mainly, but also to hinder the Iroquois who are the next strongest opponent.
7. The first leader generated should hurry Newtons. Sparta should then build the FP. The next leader will Jump our Palace. I would put the palace in Grand river and abandon Leeds. The land is commercially rich, and disbanding Leeds will reduce corruption considerably. For this reason do not put improvements into Leeds.
8. All the knights around Warwick may cause problems. I have rushed walls in three dodgy towns to make sure they pay in a heavy coin to take a city. Hopefully some of the rifles will upgrade, and because of the barracks will heal in one turn. There is only a problem for the first turn.
9. The screenshots below show how I would attack. I would take out 4 towns on the first turn. On the second turn I would take out the Saltpetre at Niagra Falls.There is saltpetre at Gayahaake, but it will take a while to get to. We cannot afford the workers to road through the Jungle here. It's just too bad. However If you can take out this salt too, and the Gems at Centralia you will cause happiness problems and probably ruin their rep.
10. If war weariness becomes a problem it is possible to get spices from Persia for a lux and Saltpetre. I'm not sure if this is a good idea, but it seems unlikely that we will go to war with them anytime soon.
Have fun. It's going to get very busy now.
Split this stack in two.

A diversionary attack to offset the risk of the Iroquois attacking our core through the jungle.
