Continuing to keep it simple.
Somebody useful asked me to close borders with Asoka, and he had been near the top of the leader board, so...
Catapults and Phalanxen. I'm not too happy with Delhi's location, but the 'enge and the shrine were too rich to pass up. I gave some thought to razing Vijay... but decided that it's culture (Holy city plus + religion + free monument) would be strong enough to pull it through.
My scouting to the west is very weak - I never bothered to connect my own horses because of the lack of food, and completely forgot that Greece starts with Hunting. Given that the Aztec capital is very accessible from here, I should be aiming for it.
Delhi will serve as a western military pump, and I end up dropping the forbidden palace there. Varan will get the Maoi.
Hannibal is still bottled up in his little corner, right below the military pump where the Great General was settled. Civil Service is in, and I'm running along the bottom of the tree to get to Maces.
Three Great Scientists so far - Academy and two settled in Athens.
