Preturn: Looks pretty good.
I think I will capture cities instead of razing them. It will allow us to grow faster.

Notes:
I stretched a bit to get the Iron. I figured that was important enough that even if we lost a city and had to recapture it, having the iron would still be worth it. We only have 2 towns building military other than catapults - feel free to change this (or start more barracks). I felt we do have enough with these cities building them and wanted to get Libraries in our cities for expansions and the long term part of the game - even if it takes a few more turns to take out the Mayans.
England is likely down to a single city. We should be able to take them out soonish.
I started the FP and went for Monarchy next. We have to decide if we want to revolt right away or wait for the GLib to complete.
I stabbed into the Mayan territory looking for their iron. I actually suspect they had more than one (so still have iron). The reason is that I cut off the Iron and am still seeing swords. The down side is our front line is chaotic. We should be able to stabalize that issue fairly quickly. There is a very nice line in our future and lots of jungle slowing down Mayan encursions. I suspect we will own our whole continent in 20-30 turns.
Started the FP.
Our Curragh is fortified in an attempt to survive the Barbarian attack. If it does live you will need to wake it up.
No landings anywhere. We are at war with the Incans and Spain so they could happen.
In the following picture, if we can take out the city in the NW, We will have only mop up and a lone city. All other Mayan units will be behind that city as a choke (once it has an expansion).
