Looks very good. Thanks, Kiech!! It is not Regicide unless you enable the option. So if everyone indicating an interest is still in, the roster will be:

The initial rules still apply, although as indicated, we are Incan. Any additional comments welcome regarding other ideas, Universal Sufferage, etc, but I'll get working on a start.

I'll still advocate mandatory worker purchasing (assuming treasury allows), and possibly a restriction on native workers. We could go with a ratio, like one native can be built for every five slaves, or just say no natives can be built after a cerain time, like the end of the AA. Also can make great use of FWAT...
I think the capture and burning of the Univ Suff is a neat addition.
What kind of govt was the CSA? A republic right? Make that the mandatory govt after despot?
I wonder if Lexington was already added to the city list, and if so where in the list is it?
Could also do something like require bombard assist on all city assaults?
Just some thoughts, let me know what you think...

Richmond, VA. (3500BC) Turn 10
People of Richmond, I bring you greetings and beg to offer my report on the affairs to date. Having arrived upon a floodplains wheat tile, I instructed the settler band to move off slightly east so as to allow our workers to begin irrigation of this fine location at first opportunity. Our scout, Mr. Beauregard, has set off to the west in hopes of surveying the length of the river which we believe to be named the Shenandoah. At this time, it appears to hold great promise as the location for future numerous encampments and settlements. No signs of other people, civilized or otherwise, have yet been seen. Yet a most prosperous future appears well in sight as a silk tile is only 3 tiles from the current capital of our lands. Further, Mr Beauregard reports an incense tile, albeit a significantly further distance west from Richmond, perhaps 10-12 tiles. Our scientific discoveries to date of pottery and masonry might have suggested a granary to be the first order of business. However, not knowing the disposition of the peoples who might inhabit the region nearby, I requested a warrior band to be formed. This completed, a new settler group is now being organized, and will be ready to set out on a journey of its own, in 8 turns. The honorable SESN has inquired as to the location of our next city, which I have confirmed will be Lexington. I have the pleasure to assure all that the Shenandoah, and the nearby hill tiles to the west will provide an ample food and shield supply to this next settlement. We have also noted the presence of a shoreline about 4 tiles northeast of the capital. I have previously spoke of scientific endeavors, and wish to make mention of the fact that our people are determined to research the wheel as quickly as possible. The discovery will provide access to horses, and should be a valued advance we hope to share with other people for a handsome price. As to the other questions that have been posed, I would share these thoughts:
On slaves- Id prefer to avoid ratios so we dont have to be counting our workforce on a regular basis. Mandatory purchasing, if you want to buy them go ahead, but dont feel it should be a requirement. Regarding limitation of native workers, I like the idea of none built after AA.
Capture and burn Universal Sufferage- Maybe just say the city with it cannot be captured, but must be razed. Dont know that it should require war with that civ immediately.
Governments and bombardments- Suggest thats all optional, as we probably dont want to be tripping over too many rules.
To everyone, please accept my most profound apologies that our artist was unable to complete the drawings of our lands to date. Due to the lateness of the hour, he was not inclined to complete the great work, but rest assured, you will see an image of our lands this evening. Your comments, opinions, recommendations, &tc most welcome.
Your obt servant,

Richmond, VA 3000 BC (turn 20)
This evening we can rejoice in the creation of our second city, that of Lexington in our beloved land of Virginia. Mr Beauregard sends his greetings and has made acquaintances with Queen Elizabeth and Joan DArc. Having spent a moment by the French capital, our scout relayed an interesting story. Having pottery as a trading chip, he proceeded to offer it to Joan in exchange for bronze working or alphabet. Previously, Elizabeth would not trade her knowledge of alphabet for masonry with us. Joan turned down our kindly offer of trade, but then returning to communications with Elizabeth, found England now willing to trade alphabet, BW, and 2 gold for our masonry knowledge. The deal consummated, our scout has now returned to the search for new lands and people. At the present time, we will have the wheel next turn, and neither of our European friends have new technology to trade. Lexington just started building granary, and that may be changed as needed. No barbarians or their huts have been seen to date, so I believe we may conclude that none exist in this world. Our cartographer sends along the map of our glorious world as we know it today, so that others may be gladdened by its image. In the lone military note, an English warrior was last seen in the swampland north of Richmond, and has not been seen the last few turns. It is suspected that England, while not seen yet, lies to our north. Most satisfied by our progress to date, I yield the floor to the honorable gentleman of Red Sox Nation.
Yours &tc.

I've got it. Looks like we'll want to explore south and west to find some more good city sites. Should have turns up late tongiht.
Edit: got hung up on LK69. I like to take my time in the early going, so I'll play this Wed afternoon.

First off, I have never listed creative writing under my talents, so please excuse me if I just keep it bland.
Pre turn I audit the build in Lexington to a scout. We need to know what our surroundings are. The city we want the granary in is Richmond. I believe we can get a 4 turn factory there if we mine some hills. Will start a granary when worker finished there next turn.
2950 bc (1) We get wheel, start writing at minimum. Richmond starts granary.
2900 bc (2) Incidentally, I dont see any horses. French found Orleans, which will grab the silk near them.
2850 bc (3) English warrior wandering near Richmond.
2800 bc (4) Our scout sees some spices far to the NW.
2750 bc (5) Scout also sees some horses and a purple border to the NW.
2710 bc (6) Scout steps into purple territory and sees no one.
2670 bc (7) Meet the Iroquois. They dont know Masonry yet, so give them that for CB and 1g.
2630 bc (8) Lose a pop in Richmond to disease.
2590 bc (9) We find the Pacific just past the Iroquois. Lexington start MP.
2550 bc (10) Iroquois will trade WC and 19g for Wheel. Ill leave for the next player to decide, although we may want to hold the monopoly until we meet another civ or two, if possible.
Here is what I figured to get Richmond on its 4 turn cycle. We need to mine/road both the last BG, and the hill next to the river. Also have to irrigate/road a plains tile. Set governor to emphasize production. Well need to have a 2nd MP and hook up the silks, to be OK happiness-wise. If Ive figured right, and we pay attention, we can produce shields in cycles of 6, 8, 7, 9. Every second turn, the citizen must be moved from the hill to the plains.
We should set Lexington to Barracks, and warriors/spears after the MP finishes, although we also need a temple somewhere in there to grab the silks.
Next city should be on the hills next to the incense, and should probably build the settler immediately after the granary, as the workers will take a bit of time to finish getting the land appropriate.
We should leave the workers in the tiles around Richmond until the land is ready, with the exception of roading the silks when we get them.

Here's teh logs, keeping it bland like Sesn.
2510 BC (1) -
2470 BC (2) -
2430 BC (3) - Grey-blue border spotted, could it be Spain? Ivory found west of Lexington.
2390 BC (4) - MP finished in Lexington, another in 5 turns, MP sent to Richmond. Lux tax to 10%. Contact made with Spain. Another Ivory west of Lexington.
2350 BC (5) - Lux tax up to 20%.
2310 BC (6) -
2270 BC (7) - MP finished in Lexington, settler started (changed to?).
2230 BC (8) - MP reach Richmond, Lux tax down to 10 %
2190 BC (9) -
2150 BC (10) - Settler finished in Richmond, next started.
After Turn Thoughts: Where do we send the settler? We could grab the Ivorys, but the land doesn't seem as good there. We're currently producing a settler in Lexington, but should that be switched to a barrack? We could grab both the luxuries if we build both settlers, but OTOH Richmond will soon finish next settler and with just a little bit more work it will be a 4-turn settler factory.

Personally, I'd like to see us grab both luxuries, post haste. (let's avoid the same situation as GCF2, huh?) Maybe start a prebuild and beeline to Math for the SoZ? Either way, I say grab both luxes, then finish off the 4-turn factory and pollute the landscape with confederate grey.
