IHT 660AD
As everyone agreed, had a wee chat with WK and accepted this deal:
Complete the pigs for wine & clams for 3 gold deals with WK.
Sell PH to SB for 50 gold.
Change research from MC to CoL (4turns).
Uruk slot in colosseum at front of queue
Eridu, Kish & Lagash no change
Ur slot in archer & swap mine to cottage
Move choking archer towards Ur
Turn 144 680AD
Ur Archer -> Granary
Bouds GW attacks former choking archer and wins. Urs vulture successfully attacks the GW at 88% odds.
Workers start building cottages in Kish.
Sals units move from Pyongyang to Seoul.
Turn 145 700AD
Lagash Barrack -> Monastery.
Turn 146 720AD
Shaka has 3 archers heading towards Ur. Now whats he going to do? Attack or pillage?
Spy in Kish reaches 50%. Unfortunately, we dont have enough EPs to steal anything.
Sals stack are no longer visible.
Turn 147 720AD
We discover:
and we found:
in Kish. Select CS which is 9 turns at 100% losing 41 gold / turn. Slider at 0% +26gold / turn. Chat to our friends SB & WK (Liz only has 10 gold) and only SB is forthcoming:
Drop slider to 0% for a couple of turns.
Eridu catapult -> catapult
Kishs water supply is poisoned. Checking the EP screen it looks like WK was the guilty party. The steal tech cost in Pyongyang has went from 990 to 283. Our spy can only steal poly so let him stay where he is.
Turn 148 760AD
Liz requests:
The only deal we have with is open borders, no trade routes. So I agree, hope this wasnt a bad move.
Kishs cow pasture has been destroyed. Send workers to repair.
Turn 149 780AD
WK builds pyramids
Shaka sends an archer onto Urs mine and one NW of the bananas
Sal has 3 Has + 2chariots in Pyongyang + another HA roaming in WKs territory.
Turn 150 800AD
Shakas archer NW of bananas attacks our spearman and loses.
Barb galley attacks our galley and loses.
Vulture loses to a Zulu archer at 87%. Spearman kills the wounded archer.
Turn 151 820AD
Sal kills our vulture returning from Lizs land with unknown HA in Shakas territory.
Herodotus doesnt think much of us:
Sals stack has moved towards the barb city up north.
Boud has a GW between our choking vultures at Ulundi.
I havent used the Toaist missionary yet. Do we want to spread to one of our cities or to one of our friends to create unrest?
Our spy can now steal Calendar from WK. I have been holding out for MC but I think we should steal calendar as we have 1 health + 1 happy resource that we can improve immediately and I think it will be awhile before we are able to steal MC.
Ill hand over here so that the group can decide.
