3 turns in Golden Age are over. But 2 questions in between:
- Regarding the resource trade: BurgerKing is not willing to trade Horses for Copper. He wants Copper+Fish. I don't know if that's worth it. I wouldn't do because it's my only Fish resource and I would lose health. One thing perhaps to consider: The location of horses is problematic. Giggles has one horse resource but it's directly on BurgerKing's border. Even if we capture Sumeria it's questionable if we can hold that tile against Holy Rome culture pressure. Mansa has no horses. Ramesses one. Zara has two horse tiles but they are located on islands and he doesn't even have built pastures on them. I guess we could try to trade elephants (plus Copper or something maybe) with BurgerKing once we have won the Gilgamesh Ivory.
- More important: Barb trouble! I was just moving a warrior for fogbusting into the tundra as Pangaea suggested when a Sword and an Archer appeared there. Also a Barb Galley at the coast of Tenochtitlan, see screenshot. How should I react? Move 1 or 2 elephants from Nidaros towards tundra? Against the Galley I have no ships and they might unload 2 units just in front of the city which worries me a bit especially because I cannot whip defenders during the Golden Age since I'm not in Slavery.
(The screenshot also contains some scout spy results about Giggles' east city: Vu = Vulture, Sw = Sword, HA = Horse Archer, Ar = Archer, Ch = Chariot).
