The Germans have been very dull, yes. Their scout even came along and watched us fight barbs for a while..they should have seen how weak we are. Still, we've discovered hardly any of the world, they might have their own problems.
London's Ruins built a warrior. It now has two and a scout. It is building a library that is started LOTS of turns ago. After this, it's a warrior, then the build queue is open again for orders (single orders).
London is now emphasizing production, as per Flotorius' old order.
Edit: While the workers can, I have them defaulting to their old orders (mining hills, roads around London's Ruins, and tring to road to the wine in the far West of our turf).
