Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to get you. I would've probably left a warrior near home, too.
Um, why is our only worker roading a forrest when there's 2 BGs, 3 plains and 2 grasslands unimproved?
I would have improved 5-6 flat tiles then considered roading to the next city or hooking up a resource. (Well, not all in the first 20 turns.)
I haven't seen what position on the map we are yet, so I'm not sure where is best to explore next. I kinda like our starting area for resources, but all the forrest might mean a slower start.
Is there any way to MM to finish the granary before the next pop growth? (Maybe everyone works a plain plain
.) If we can that saves us 10 food.
At first I was eyeing that cow & fish for one of the next city sites, but the desert to the NE looks like it may have some grass nearby and irrigatable plains between it and Rome. The south may hold possibilities, too.
Conehead234, I'm not seeing that it's specified yet, but almost all SGs I've read start with 20 turns then each player plays 10 after that. So my best guess is that you play 10.

On the worker roading the forest. I wanted to get the BG, worked and It would have taken 2 worker turn moves to get there, so I just decided to build a road here. on hindsight I maybe should have went to the regular grassland spot and started there(sorry, I was not thinking clearly)
As for where we are on the map, It is pretty much right in the middle, so exploring would be good in any direction.

I did my turns we met Japan and Greece and got our first war :soldier: . I killed a jap warrior.
Turn 1- Warrior N, Warrior East find 3 spices.
Turn 2- MM for faster growth same number of turns to complete granary
Turn 3- Warrior North, Warrior East find 2 more spices. We appear to have 3 luxuries around the starting area. Good news for us.
Turn 4- Rome grows. Lux to 30% Warrior north, Warrior East
Turn 5- Granary complete. Set to build warrior. Warrior East to Hut, get 25 gold. Warrior East, see another hut.
Turn 6- Road completes, worker to BG west of forest. Warrior north. Warrior east, Pop hut get barbs.
Turn 7- warrior completes, fortifes, set to settler. Barbs fortify in jungle. Warrior North. Warrior North. Worker starts mine. Lux to 20%.
Turn 8- Meet Greeks to north, see greek warrior settler pair to north. Up BW, Wheel, and CB. No trades are possible except 2 gpt and 50 g for CB. We have no use for it so I don't trade. They have Sparta and silks.
Warrior North, Warrior north. Meet Japan. Declare war. They are North East
Turn 9- Warrior north, Attack jap Warrior, win promote to vetern. Wip settler.
Turn 10-Settler built, set to warrior. Warrior north, Warrior East. I think we should send the Settler warrior pair to SW of cow near BG It is marked on the image.

West of the cow (NW of the Red Dot) would be on the lake and still have the cow. Plus it would auto clear jungle. If you're worried about not getting the BG without culture expansion, you could plant the next town on the coast by the fish (enroute to claiming the spices) and position it so that the added culture joining the two cities grabs the BGs.

I think we should settle the spot rest of the cow now. The japs are to the north east i think. I think in the captial we should build 2 more warriors then a settler. Then maybe city 2 could be a settler factory. and the captial pump out warriors.

Notes
Greece still wants 58gp + 2gpt for the Wheel - keep an eye on this as if the price drops then they've sold it to someone else, probably Japan
The Settler is a problem. He could go North or South hoping to find something good. I'm tempted by the Cow & Silks site to the West but it's a bit remote for our 3rd city. Probably the safest course is to plant him in the forest, South of the lake 3SW of Veii.

I like the names Ted!
as for the new city, I know we have not explored to the north much, but I would go that way, to expand in Greece's direction, But I guess that decision is up to the next player
Generalissimo, you're up! Good luck!!

More contacts = lower cost techs
At the moment we are looking at monopoly prices for any tech. Buying a couple of the (non-religious) contacts will problably lower the cost to 3rd rank.
