About Russia comment - yea, I'm building up my navy to attack Moscow from the sea.
Edit: The next part is done processing:
Civ 5 Gods and Kings - Part 38
Anyhow... it looks like Byzantines are going for diplomatic victory, and the only way I can prevent them from out-bribing me, is getting as many city states allied with me as possible, and then declaring war on em, so that all the city states allied with me declare war as well... otherwise they are most likely going to win the UN vote. (Edit: I'm getting a bit ahead of myself, since you can't actually see the UN in part 38 yet, it's going to be in part 39 I just finished recording, that will be going up tomorrow - it's 1 hour long as well, so I need time to render and upload it).
P.S. There's at least one rather unexpected... development, in part 38, but I'm not going to spoil it here.
P.P.S. I'm going to try finishing this particular game in the next week or so.
