Sorry for holding it up so long, RL is being uncooperative with Civ time right now.
Preturn- We look ok.
IT- Japan chooses to boot us. I take the oppurtunity to trade Myst for Warrior Code and 10g. We can't get the Wheel unfortunately.
T1 2950
Nothing much.
T10 2550
We learn IW, and the rng has seldom been kinder as we have Iron next to St. Petes
Set us to Alphabet so we can get closer to libraries to open up our research.
The position sucks, but I settler Novogorod to claim the spices.
We pop a warrior from a GH and spot a purple warrior. They ignore us so we do the same.
Summary
We need to keep scouting at "meet" more people. No real trading, but we do get lowered research costs out of it. I would settle North into the jungle fairly soon, it will be some fertile land eventually.

we need to be careful and not get too bold, next town must be settled to connect spice town and Moskow via CxxC, this is potential AW and we need to maintain a 3 tils spacing. I suggest spot south of river next to mountain, which would connect Moskow and Novogorod

Indeed, I was going to mention something similar. I didn't feel vert comfy sticking the city out that far, but didn't want a city that had a majority of desert that wouldn't even gurantee us the spices. Certainly we need a connection city between them.

ok here are some suggestion not being able to look at the bigger picture, red is town #1 in priority IMHO
plarq
Crazy forever
Got it.
BTW,I need sometime to find a gap in my schedule,2 days at most.
Rat,is this allowed?I don't think it's allowed since AI only boot him,no real talkie.Kaiser Berger said:

we are not allowed to purposely enter enemy territory to get booted and start discussion.
I was my last turn when the AI blocked my path and I had no choice but to enter that territory, that's why I didn't say anything. in future, NO stepping into their territory to initiate things.
Maybe what we should agree on is:
if we enter AI land and get booted, we simply comply, but don't enter the trade screen.
what you all think?
plarq
Crazy forever
Rat:Agreed.If we're allowed to make negotiations like this,we'll end up to be "silent sneakers",which will mean that we're not silent anymore.

ok, will amend the rules on page 1. btw, plarq, do you need a swap with elmarae? actually 10 turns at this level are played very fast
plarq
Crazy forever
Swap is ok.It's ironic that I'd waited impatiantly,now that I have no time to deal with it.
Preflight
No need to check for trades.
Happiness okay
Do we want a granary in Moscow?
2390 BC
Moscow > Settler > Granary
Science 100% - Lux 0% (Alphabet in 7)
2270 BC
Found Rostov > Worker
2150 BC
Discover Alphabet > Wheel (Though this can be changed)
Novgorod > Worker > Worker (maybe change to Barracks and chop the spice forest when the 3 workers are done with the roads.)
Must have misclicked in Moscow, because instead of 10 food there is only 2. I'm against reloading so I lived with the mistake, at least it was on the forest so the granary has 4 extra shields.

IHT:Cathy calls her SA(Science Advisor) in and he says Russian people are backwards.I guess it means we're down Writing,so we cannot gamble on Philosophy monopoly.St.Petersburg is not on river!Can you guess?I research Max on Wheel due in 6.My suggestion is settling in the N of Pink Dot,we can get FP wheat immediately.
IBT:Indian Settler pair out,I cannot say hello.
T1:Indian scout spot Incense and blue border.We need to pump out several archers from St.Pete,or AI will demand and we'll get into hell.The stronger we're,the less AI will demand.
IBT:St.Pete riot,it's not so good for a 4C empire.
T2:We spot Koreans but cannot say hello.
IBT:Carthage settler pair approach Novogrod.Korean want to trade Mas for Myst,Korea is also up Wheel,and has 45g,wines,6 cities including Seoul.I start Archer in St.Pete.
T3:Wheel next turn.I'll research Writing next.
IBT:India want 19g for Wheel,I decline,he's even in tech.5 cities no gold.Korea boots and I don't answer.Wheel->Writing.
T4:3 Horses are in or around Carthage,we'll need a war to claim these.Leptis Minor settled aggressively against Novogrod.
IBT:Moscow Granary->Settler.
T5:Nothing.
T6:No more things interesting.
IBT:Spice is online,lux down.Rostov worker->warrior.
T7:Writing price down,seems Carthage or Korea has Writing.
T8:Nothing
IBT:Japan demands 21g and WAR!
2 warrior and 1 vet archer are our whole troops.
T9:Best chance is occupy the Mountain near Rostov,and it's possible.or we'll be toast.I MMed St.Pete to build 4t Archers,and change Moscow's Settler for a Spear.
It's 9t.And I stop here for Rat to determine the war.1 archer and 2 warrior,that's the whole troops of Mother Russia,will we stop the Japanese strike?
Japan front:
Korean empire,E to India:
Rat,let our warrior near Rostov occupy the mountain or Eastern Jungle,another archer will reinforce Novogrod,build a warrior in Novogrod.You're our savior!
