Steve, Paris is a Great City, so i Hope you had a Great Time there... But is it possible you oversaw that there was a FISH in that Lake Next to Paris?

Good point, T_x.

I wanted to do 20K this time but I would have liked Militaristic, Religious or Scientific. And more lakes. With fish.

 

[Più Freddo]

Well, lacking the fish we can as consolation do a 4.6-to-6.6 60-shield combo factory. With hyperindustrious Workers, it should come pretty fast into being.

But perhaps moving inland, losing a BG, is still better?
