Noone to trade with.
(1)
Start foresting our borders.
Zulus know Banking now (did they before?). Research down 10%, Physics in 1 turn.
(2)
Physics ToG in 10 at max science (201 bpt). With 150 shields in the box this means Big screen. Still no harbors.
(IBT) Zimbabwe builds Leos. Ur finishes Sistines.
(3)
Zulus know Navigation. Their only wonder build is in Zimbabwe, which is not coastal, so this gives double interest to this tech. I decide to buy it on monopol. Chemistry to Zululand for Navigation, 49g and 33gpt. Magelan in 9 turns in London.
Trade routes are open now to Egypt and Mongolia. Education for Dyes, Ivory and WM to Mongolia. Banking for Furs, Iron and WM to Egypt. Trade for the world map knowledge and cash, but am unable to lower lux. We need one more lux to do it. Cant upgrade units neither.
(IBT) Mongolia declares on Egypt.
(4)
The situation is fine, were the only civ building wonders.
(5)
Our WM is enough to empty the AI treasuries.
(6)
Not much.
(7)
Tech and wonder due in 5 turns.
(8)
Im embarrassed of all those smiling leaderheads.
(9)
Stop smiling like idiots, build some harbours!
(10)
Incans raze a nearby Russian city.
(IBT) RoP end. Japan declares on Russia too. Do we want to keep the world in peace or will research ourselves? I think its late to change this now, well have to research.
(11)
The AIs are broke. I dont renew the RoP, chemistry or navigation at 3d is too much for this. Do it if you want to.
(12)
Smooth sailing gives us ToG and Newtons:
London set on worker. Magnetism due in 7 turns at 90% and 292 bpt. A temple or another lux would have allowed us to go full science and get it in 6
No ai harbours in sight. We can get the tech in 7 at 80% too but I still hope for lux and 6 turns.
(13)
London worker rax.
Stupid AI didnt hear my Harbours! call.
(IBT) Inca and Russia sign peace.
(14)
Same old.
(IBT) Mongolia advances against Egypt, we lose our Iron/Furs supply
(15)
At least now we can trade for Mongolias extra furs and Zulus extra gems. We can get both for 7gpt. I leave it to the next leader.
