Wow! The world has turned a lighter shade of gray! 
Preturn:
Wake up armies around our capitol to take out the few Iro cities left in Asia.
New Gewauga Captured with no losses. Killed a stack of 3 Knights outside of New Tyendenaga and closed in for the kill there and Ciudad Guayana.
OK. The Argentines and Iroquis are just WAAAAAAAAAYyy to similar of a color! I had a heart attack when I looked at the situation in Mexico with masses of Purple troops gathered around our masses of....workers!? Whew!
Wake up some Cav garrisons and pick off 4 Iro Cavalry in North America near our newly conquered cities.
IT ARgentines generally head back south. Aztecs make a landing on one of our near an ill-defended city. Fend of 3 Iro Cav attacks successfully. Iro Frigate kills one of our Galleons near Cuba. Fend off the Songhai Cav attack on the Azores Islands
1680: We are now at 52% land and 51% Population. Scientific Method due in 7, and Palace pre-build in Madras due in 10.
Clean up Aztec invasion.
Clean up Iro invasion of 2 Cavs in Greenland.
Conquer Amiens (Songhai- off west coast of Africa) with no losses. Songhai is down to a single, one-island city.
Conquer New Tydndenaga (Iro-Siberia), captured with no losses.
Conquer Cherbourg (Iro-Iceland), captured with no losses.
Conquer and destroyed Ciudad Guayana (Iro-Siberia) with no losses. The Iros are out of Asia!
A healing turn for the main offensive in Northa America. Clean up 7 wandering Iro Rifles (lose 2 Cavs!). Approach some cities.
(I played a second turn, but I left the turn log at work!

I have to be sneaky, but I can get maybe a full turn in of a game this size througout the work day.
(Con'td)
Capture Chita (Russian Capital, North Siberia Island) with no losses but lots of red-lined cavs...against spears??
Capture St. Regis (Iro, @ Central Canada) with 2 cav loss.
Settle 5 new cities in razed lands.
IT Aztec Frigate sink a Galley near Japan. Aztecs make another landing on a North American island and a large landing in Japan. Fight off about 10 Iro counterattacks, and win 8 of them. A small stack of overlooked workers were taken.
1685: Clean up 8 wandering Iros with no losses. Recapture our workers. Fight off the Aztec landings with 1 Cav loss. We get one leader while clearing up the Iros.
Capture Caughnawaga (Iro - Rockies, Wyoming-USA area) and a huge, isolated, and obnoxious piece of mountanious Iro territory is now ours.
Capture Salamanca (Iro capitol, Canada) with no losses.
Capture Kahnawake (Iro, Canada) with no losses.
Capture Chalco (Iro, Haiti) with 1 Cav loss.
Capture San Carlos (Iro, Canada) with 1 cav loss.
Settle 4 new cities in razed lands.
IT Lose a total of 3 Cavs defending from Russian and Iro Attacks. Pretty quiet otherwise. Why does the Aztecs still have so many ships?
1690: Clean up a couple of the counters. Japan is now safe and clean of invaders.
Capture Cattaraugus (Iro, New England area) with no losses.
Capture New Allegheny (Iro, Canadian Island) with 1 Cav lost.
Capture Oka (Iro, Ottowa) with no losses.
Capture Niagra Falls (Iro, Greenland) with 1 Cav lost, and get another source
of Silks.
Settle 3 new cities.
This research at max really sucks, as I can't rush any Temples in the newly conquered lands.
We are at 55% Land and 55% Population.

I have had a sudden family emergency and I have to travel for 3-4 days. I've never had to ask for a skip in my entire SG career, so I feel bad about this. 
I did do 3 complete turns (saved game is below).
At the end of last turn, I captured New York, Buffalo and Akwesasne. Iros only have Tundra cities left - we have all the decent land in North America. We are 56% land and 56% population.
Again, apologies

I will have almost no time for this over this weekend. I am going to have to swap wtih Microbe.

Remember 5 per round (post-industrial) - STRICT 24 hours got it, total 48 hours for a least a partial update
I couldn't disable 100K win. We need to avoid the culture leaders for as long as possible. Don't attack the Zulu.

If you are starting to feel safe with the Iros, then perhaps you could ask the other purple gangs to leave our premises 
As to max science, it was mostly in order to avoid wasting the prebuild.
Hope everything turns out to the best RubberJello

Preturn: looks like a lot of one-tile island hanging around..
(1)1695AD: Lose a frigate and sink one. I had better deal.
Lose one cav but we kill two rifles and capture Gewauga.
Kill two rifles and we capture New Salamanca. By mistake I loaded a 4th cav into the army so it's not stuck in that small island.
I switch Delhi to coal plant to be able to build hoover faster.
Raise sci to get Sci Meth in 3 turns.
Rush two temples.
Cleanup a few rifles within our border.
Capture a russian town.
Russia agrees to talk. Since she has only capital left on a one-tile island, I make peace and get 24g+4gpt.
IBT Our treasury goes negative and we lose a temple somewhere. Sorry.
(2)1700AD:
Kill 3 rifles and one cav we capture Grand River.
Kill 2 rifles and one cav we capture Tyendenaga.
Kill 4 rifles and 2 cav we capture Chondote.
Kill 2 rifles and one cav we capture New Niagara.
Two cav kill 2 rifles but the 3rd loses to a cav! Wait till next turn for Kawauka.
Aegentina and Zulu have Corporation+Replaceable Parts.
IBT the first time I saw an Iro cav and it kills our cav.
(3)1705AD:
Kill 2 rifles and one cav and we capture Ganogeh.
Kill one cav and we capture Kawauka.
Kill 3 rifles and we capture Mauch Chunk.
Kill 2 rifles and we capture New Akwesesane.
Free Artistry to Benezuela for WM+51g.
PP to Brazil for WM+80g.
IBT Delhi coal plant->colosseum as prebuild.
(4)1710AD:
Kill 2 rifles and we capture Kiohero.
We have 27 cavs next to Skannayutenate, so I attack without army. We kill two rifles without lose and capture it. It seems 27 cavs are overkill.
Kill two rifles and one cav and we capture Centralia.
Kill two rifles and we capture Oiogouen.
We lose two cavs but kill two rifles and capture Denver.
Lose one cav, kill two rifles and we capture Detroit.
Aztecs landed 1 cav and 2 knights next to Coatepec, and Iro landed an elite cav too, at the same time.
- Elite cav 4/4 kill knight.
- vet cav 1/4 kill knight.
- vet cav 2/4 kill cav.
- Elite cav 0/5 kill cav.
I make peace with Aztecs and get 86g + 6gpt to stop the phony war.
Sell WM around and get 216g.
IBT Sci Method in, switch Palace to ToE losing 206 shields and we get Atomic Theory and Electronics.
(5)1715AD:
@Iro:
Kill 2 rifles and one cav and we capture Neodakheat, losing one cav.
Kill 3 rifles and capture Baltimore, losing one cav.
Bombay actually can build army faster as it has been building an army, so Delhi is switched to cav. Hoover in 10 turns.
Zulu wouldn't trade RP or Corporation for Sci Method, but Argentina is willing to pay RP+306g+111gpt! I do the deal. I guess I'll just declare on Zulu then.
I sell Sci Method to Zulu for 1951g all its gold.
Atomic Theory to Argentina for Corporation+Communism+34gpt. Stock Exchange and Wall Street are nice to have.
I then shut off research as I don't think we need anything else.
Zulu has no rubber so we'll just fight rifles. Our 14 armies can certainly handle them.
@Zulu:
Kill 2 rifles and 1 cav and we capture Diara.
Kill 3 rifles and 4 cav(!!) and we capture Arwon.
Kill 4 rifles and 1 cav and we capture Elephantine. It's size-7 but I keep it.
Kill about 7-8 very tough rifles and we raze El-Amarna.
Kill 2 rifles and we capture Hombori.
So much for this turn.
I also make peace with Songhai since he has only one city left which we cannot get. We get 620g in the process. I then sell Sci Meth to it for its remaining 132g.
I think we should be done after the Zulu war. We are 59/61.
We have lots of workers. I fortified several stacks around our capital, also lots of cannons.
On the Iro side, I put workers, cavs and armies around Cattaraugus. Check those out.
Dont forget to sell coal plant in Delhi and some core cities after Hoover is built.

I abandon Elephantine. I have no tolerance for dealing with resistors.
I scan the map and find a few temples to rush. After that I rush some settlers, and upgrade some rifles to infantry. I wake up our workers to chop rush more settlers / temples in Eurasia.
I find ships fortified in the ocean. This pre-turn is going to take awhile.
(IT) The Iroquois and China trade embargo us. Who cares?
We lose a worker stack that was weakly protected with a rifleman.
We lost some ships along the African coast I didn't even realized that we had.

Well I am trying to collect enough ships to hit those islands north of Canada. I would have liked a few more escorts for our ships - those very frigates that were fortified.
=============================
I can tell we are in late game wm. Over 1 1/2 hours last night didn't finish 1720AD. Haven't even started the attack on the Zulu SOD.

We have over 40 Zulu cavalry inside our borders. I know what my troops are doing this round. I kill them all with most of the losses being conscripted junk units. I ran out of quality attackers.
The newly placed Zulu cities of New Amatikulu and New Isipezi are razed.
The Iroquois landing in Greenland is cleaned up. I have already starting sending ships that way, but they still need a few turns to arrive.
The Iroquois city of Gayagaahe is razed, and the Iroquois have been removed from North America.
At this point we have no need to occupy all cities. I am just doing the coastal cities. This allows me to start disbanding conscript rifle to speed up builds with an emphasis on settlers / temples.
I merge a few natural workers into our cities. At this point I am struggling what to use the workers for. The merges will help us get close to 66% population.
(IT) Nothing much happens.
1725 AD
I demand Argentina leave our territory and the idiot declares war.
Jaipur 5, Kolhapur 5, Karachi 5, Calcutta 5 and Lahore 5 are formed.
I clean up a 1 cavalry landing in Japan by the Zulu.
I hate idle workers, but even I can't see a gain from them in Asia. I am going to put the majority back on fortified status and continue to merge the natural workers.
The fight versus the Zulu is to clean up several small stacks of rifles, MDI, and guerillas. I also nail one of there two remaining SoD.
We raze Teotihuacán, but the number of defenders was very high. We find 6 buckets in ruins.
We raze Texcoco and Tenochtitlan.
(IT) A meaningless embargo by Australia and Argentina is singed. The same nonsense occurs with America. Then it is the Zulu and America.
I lost some workers and a couple of cavalry as I missed a road segment along the Venezuela border at they moved further then expected.

I have to deal with another single cavalry landing by the Zulu in Japan.
I have to deal with Iroquois landings in Greenland again. The first reinforcements have arrived.
I clean up the rest of the Zulu SoD in Africa. That should leave the Zulu gassed and ready to crumble.
I razed the 2 newly place Zulu cities. I also raze Athribis.
Hyderabad 5 is formed.
I knock the Argentina SoD from 40+ Gaucho to 1 Gaucho.
(IT) Outside of watch the Zulu build yet another city next to my settler nothing much happens.
The Argentineans pour more troops across the border, but they only capture a small worker stack.

I hope to complete 1735 AD (IT) and 1740 AD tonight. I fully expect Meldor to wrap as the Zulu are now gassed.
I play to offer another world map game at Deity after my vacation. My thoughts for that game is Russia to be the Civ.
