We are lucky we are with Cyrus and Lui, probably the best allies we can have

Workers start road from hill to capital.

Turn 13 (940)

(Next player can change production if he don’t like archer)
Maybe better to play on safe side since we have axmen showing up.
I send newly created q-warrior to go to Machu picchu (we only have one archer there
and there are 3 archers in barb city next to it)
Turn 20 (800)
Cuzco finishes archer.
Stonehenge in Tiwanaku in 9 and grows in 8.
Sailing in 4
--------------------------------------------
I played more on the safe side but I don’t feel lucky
on open vs. axmen.
My suggestions after Sailing are-> Writing , Code of Laws.
After Tiwanaku is done with Stonehenge, it should go for Pyramids.
We also should try to get catapults and IW as soon as possible.
In my test game with same settings (which I won) I was the one who built pyramids and
I never went further then Civil service. This game should be over before we exit Medieval period. WW is going to be so high (40 angry faces without Police State), that any research beyond that point is impossible. Also, since Bismarck in only one without religion, I suspect he will go for Oracle, to get Theology and Christianity.
Anyways good luck
on my part.
