-The Aztecs can be ignored now. They have three cities so therefore shouldnt ever be a threat again.
-Our next target should be the Chinese and than the Incas. The Chinese have better land.
-IMO we need to slow down China and Inca. Both our keeping up in research. There isnt much of anything cultural wise in the IA so we might as well cut them down at the knees now. This will help us later in the MA.
-A WE army can attack three times a turn! I did not know that.
-In three turns the Palace (Madras), Heroic Epic (Calcutta), and JS Bachs (Bangalore) will all be complete. Smiths (Delhi) has ten and Magellans (Lahore) has eight. Realize though that our GA is over in three so the last two ETAs will change.
Heres the island I mentioned in 520 AD.

RE: Inca deal renewal negotiations. We get Incense; we give Silks and 4 gpt.
We must not declare war on the Inca while we are trading luxuries. Now we'll have to wait until this deal expires again.
Any particular reason for not trading Banking for Invention? If we can build Leo's and cut the cascade again, I think we should.

I read somewhere that the last turn of the GA trully is not the last turn. The GA starts on turn 0 ends on turn 19... Or so I read ...Methos said:
Lets see if its true...

Preturn- Sell China Banking for Invention, WM, and 1g. It was the best deal... Switch Delhi to Leo's. Still 10.
IBT- Karachi WE->WE.
Turn 1(560AD)- Nothing special to report.
IBT- Bombay Settler->Settler. Kolhapur WE->WE. Punjab WE->WE.
Turn 2(570AD)- Move troops towards the hill near Shanghai. We need to slow down China soon.
IBT- Madras Palace->Smith's. Bangalore JS->Bank. Calcutta HE->Bank.
Turn 3(580AD)- Our GA will end this turn. I move the attack force to the horse hill so it can attack the first turn we decide to hit. I'd say I'll be able to attack in about 2-3 turns.
IBT- Inca demand Navigation. I tell him to boil in the Andes... He backs down. GA ends. Chittagong Market->Bank.
Turn 4(590AD)- Our deals are about to expire with China. Still need a few more Elephants. Also, that Incan demand threw me off gaurd, maybe ill hold off a couple more turns to make sure they dont sneak attack us. The end of our GA slowed down Smiths to 27 turns, Leo's to 11, and Magellan's to 7 turns. Democracy next turn.
IBT- Democracy->FA in 4.
Turn 5(600AD)- At the turn of the Century we are doing great. I discovered another island in the western ocean, this one has Incan colors on it.
IBT- Something odd happened. Chinese units started heading towards an Incan town... a Mahatma can only dream...
Turn 6(610AD)- The island I spoke of is almost all covered in marsh, its not even worth having...
IBT- Tzintzuntzen Worker->Worker. Those Chinese units do not attack Inca...
Turn 7(620AD)- Nothing special. Discover that island must have only had one square w/o mountains or marsh.
IBT- Hyderabad WE->WE.
Turn 8(630AD)- FA next turn. Will put in Madras, as Delhi will get Smith's after Leo's. This can be changed by next player, but I think its best choice.
IBT- FA->Gunpowder. Its our only choice. Karachi WE->WE. Inca start Smith's.
Turn 9(640AD)- Switch Delhi to Smith's. If we get Leo's, its gonna cascade right into Smith's. Switch the wonders around a bit.
IBT- Kolhapur WE->WE. Punjab WE->WE.
Turn 10(650AD)- Nothing special.
Ok. The planting of forests up north is done, and Magellan's will be done in 1. I think Leo's is out because we cant afford a cascade to Smith's. Once Leo's and Smith's is done, I don't see much more competition from Inca wonder wise. Current estimated win date for 100k is 2153AD. Were getting there. I think its a lot less scary then 20 turns ago.
