I would definitely build some musket UUs. Janissaries, too, are very effective with dealing with outdated troops, as they get a horde of bonuses and would make good stack defenders/attackers/amphibious attackers.
Most of our WW was against Sury, believe it or not. Is he the owner of the Statue of Zeus? That may be something to keep in mind.
I'm all for earlier war. If we're going to make any headway against the other continent before tanks, we need to get our continent under control fairly soonish. The other continent could also be a major voting bloc pain with things, so we need to get our population up ASAP. And that means owning the continent.
That is well and truly bizarre. Or an interface error. Either way, I think Lee indicated Sury had broken free of Cathy so we won't have to fight him right away.
Cathy has Zeus in Moskow. Last save we had about 500 WW with her and some 300 with Sury. So taking Moskow fast would instantly shave about 250 raw WW poits...
BE targetting doesn't work against cities (I was able to check that in-game on my turns). And you don't really get to pick which unit to attack. BEs just attack mounted units first, in decreasing strength, and only then get to non-mounted units.

Tech-wise, I would think now would be a reasonable time to use up much of our WFYABTA limit. Education should be quite fine to trade and I'd see how much it can fetch us. Yes, it gives the AI universities and the tech benefits of Newton's, but those do take a while to build and we can really use the techs now. Nationalism and drafting some rifles (painful happiness hit, though) would be extremely handy.
