How about settling NE of the fish? It gets the fish, the furs, and the blue thingy that I don't remember. That isn't distance 3 but we could put in a city later that is 3 away along the coast.

The Rat- Can you please zip the save for me? If I try to open the link you sent me, IE opens it up as a text file. I'm using a mac, and this could cause problems.
I have uploaded the zipped version of the save in this post.
I looked at the save and think the location that gets the Sake, Furs, Whale and Fish is best. That is E of the Fish.
Heading for the wheel fairly early seems best to me. We won't need temples as much as we can see 3 that are easy to get (sake, furs, gems). The alphabet line will be more useful later on when we have more cities to produce science so I think it can wait.
I would finish sword smithing and then go for Pottery, Masonry (walls), Invention, Wheel I think. Maybe Alphabet somewhere if we start to get big before we have wheel.

Greebley, your tech choices are mine too. With smithing we get a 3/2/1 unit which is so much better than that current 1/1/1 sword.
Then we should follow the path you laid out.
I also agree on the 2nd spot, sake is considered a lux as well and we have 3 of them within our sight already.
Empiremaker, how come you can't use my save link? Just right mouseclick and 'save as'

Empiremaker, are you going to play this? I usually stick to 24/48, but this is a mere 10 turns with nothing much going on. Simply tell us whether you need skip...

I should be able to play in a few hours. I just got a error File not Found: Conquests game data/Text/ICON_BLDG_GESHIA. I'm troubleshooting right now, and if I don't get it worked out soon, I'll have to take a skip. I'm very sorry about taking so long.
Greebly- FYI - I tried what I did for my SG.

I'll have to skip this round. I'm still looking into what is causing the issues. I'll try to give an update when I get the issue fixed.
oK I got it.
We met only 2 Barbs killing 1 of them.
Got the settler and settled.
Built two more swordsmen for defense (one in each town) and started building the Barracks in the capitol.
We Sword-Smithing is 20 turns away now.
I made a potential dot map. The brown lines are roads to connect up cities that are distance 3 from one another. We should discuss it.

the dot map looks fine with me, maybe we need to finetune it to connect iron once we know where it is.
I would settle yellow or blue next. We should try and have 4 cities up fast. I would also think that the west is rather safe as it is the end of Japan. Thus, I would avoid exploring the east at all cost, we do not need enemies right now.

@Empiremaker: I think you need to completely uninstall all Civ3 versions including vanilla and make sure everything is removed so you can have a clean install. I did that (and really make sure CIV3 components all completely removed) and it solved quite a few issues I had.

seems this game is moving pretty slow.
D'Artagnan, can you take it? Else, I suggest pindicator to take 10 turns, shouldn't take long during the first round.

I turned on Emphasize Production in all of our cities.
Hiroshima completed its barracks and is almost finished with a settler. I timed the settler to be completed with growth to size 6 rather than working max shields to get him out ASAP. Okayama finished its worker and is now on a barracks; it currently has 10 shields invested.
Workers hooked up the sake and I moved them to connect the other two luxuries in our borders. Right now Lux slider is at 10%. Science is at 50%. I'm willing to bet there was a better choice for worker actions.
No contacts yet.

Hey if you guys need another player in the future due to whatever, send me a PM.

Sir Bugsy, you are more than welcome. In fact if D'Artagnan doesn't post a got it today, you can grab the save and play 10.
Looking good so far, we should settle more and watch out for the iron that will pop up soon.
