I do not think it affects the demand, only what he demands. Back when I use to reload while learning to play I would sometimes replay the turn with the demand while trading the demanded item first. The AI still made the demand on schedule but asked for something different.
On the trading of contacts if we are close to losing the contact anyhow lets trade it.

I don't think that we're close to losing exclusivity, and after looking at the military situation on the border, it may not be soo bad after all. We have a huge stack of horse in the central town to counter 2 pikes and 2 LBs. The problem that we do have is that the same central city has no culture, and is bordered by 2 rather large Otto cities. This city is our key, as if it flips, then the ones on either side will eventually flip also. If we keep it, then we should be OK. That will now go to building culture for a while. In the mean time, I've moved many of the units out, just to prevent losing most of our army in a flip. I'm also searching for more luxes to trade, so as to be able to decrease the MP load on the core cities (3 each is high).
I should be able to finish tonight. In the mean time, I'll keep my eyes on the trading price versus potential for demand war. Thanks for the input!!!

Row, see if you can get a map from our friends to the East so we can see if there's an easier route. If there's a wide gap all around then we own the contact for some time to come.

The closest points are up by carthage, and down SE from the zulu. Both are 6 ocean tiles wide, so not great. In any case, I did well with trades, and bagged mucho cash, techs, and enough gpt to make me feel like I'm wearing a target.
It took a long time, so I'll need another night.

Trades for WM & French contact: Spain WM, 10g, 3gpt; Celts same but 9g; English & Vikings wont do it, but might then trade total WM for much $ or Mono.

France has 47g, England 53g + Mono, Celts have Mono, Spain has 3gpt + 13g + Mono, Vikings have 69g + Mono, rest of world has no money. Hold off on trading contacts, although Carthage is close to England & Vikings, and Zulu and Persia are close to France. Looks like 6 ocean tiles min at each place.
(Net: +147g + 4gpt + gems ivory +/- WMs. Or, +201g counting France, below.)
IBT: Babs begin Leos, Ottos start pulling ships & troops back to home cities. We must have given them elsewhere to set their sights on for expansion.

Otto's (7 turns of ROP left)
iroquois (no pt deal)
zulu (no pt deal)
carthage (no pt deal)
persia (10 turns of gems-ivory deal left)
Who do we attack first? Carthage will be easy to to defeat. So I say we go after them first.

I have 5 AW waiting to cross when the galeeys are ready. I'm wondering if we can play follow the leader with the lone galley in Utica. If either or both CART gallies chase him we could allow the 2 new gallies to cross safely.
2) Ottos have muskets, so I have staged remaining AW near their border.
3) I renewed the ROP with Otto & Babs
4) We will learn gunpowder next turn
5) FP is 12 turns away
6) Golden age started in the IBT to 470AD
7) I've been busy building AW we now have 22 of them
EDIT: The 530AD Save
Zarth
Emperor
got it now
