inherited turn:
I make this deal with hatty. I wanted her to throw philosophy in but she wouldn't. Dunno why we're researching philo ourselves when we could trade for it with hatty.
We will want to have Feudalism eventually, cause it's on the way to guilds, therefore on the way to rifling.
I started on market in madrid. We've got a shrine there. Market should be a priority.
turn 1:
I notice that espionage is already set on Cathy and Boudica only. Good job.
Philo in. Started on paper.
Cathy asks me to join the war against hatty and I don't see why not, so I agree.
We've already traded all techs hatty has to offer.
We loose furs and silks from trades from egypt, but i set up new trade: fish to Boudica for silk.
We've got plenty of happy anyway, but having a trade going may discourage Boudica from declaring on us.
Whipped some buildings (we have lots of food but little production)
and a workboat in Nagoya (it'll be ages until we build courthouse there.
It's better to grow the city)
turn 3:
Whipped market in madrid, started on aqueduct (low on health)
Made this deal with Cathy.
Moving our troops to egyptian territory. Maybe we can steal a city or two, who knows.
turn 4:
Boudica asks to stop dealing with english, and I agree.
We've only got open borders with england anyway, and since they don't have any good cities, OB doesn't bring us much gold via trade-routes.
What's more important, we don't want to upset Boudica while she has tech advantage (maces and pikes).
turn 5:
great scientist born in Kyoto. I burn him on education for 1650 beakers. 5 turns to education left.
We should win liberalism race easily.
turn 6:
Boudica declares war... on Elisabeth
Cathy compleres Angkor Wat.
turn 7:
Boudica asks as to join the war vs England, and once again, I agree.
It's a good way of strenghtening relations with Boudica. English are dead anyway.
I found another fishing village. We need more of those, they practically pay for themselves upon being founded (5 commerce generated vs 5.85 maintenance)
turn 10:
Boudica captures Nothingam. English almost dead, only 1 city left.
Since Boudica is pleased with us, I ask he for free cow and she agrees. That means we can't declare war on her for 10 turns and vice versa. Also it helps our health problems.
Education in. I set research to literature, it'll only take 1 turn and we should build heroic and national epic asap.
Our troops reach Alexandria, here's what's inside:
we should easily take it at the expense of an elephant or 2.
During this turnset after getting Feudalism I built us some longbows, mainly to raise our power rating fast.
I think we should found more fishing villages, build heroic epic in capitol and national epic somewhere. Nagoya would be best, but it'll take ages until it'll be built there so I dunno.
Don't forget to whip often. We've got lots of food and plenty of happines with health being our only concern. This is just perfect for whipping
