IBT:
iros lose 3 swords and move in 2 new ones
Turn 2:
kyoto: sword->sword
vilcabamba has grown, move in swords, they see 2 bab swords, one right next. but 4 swords on a mountain should be enough. not so sure about defending the cities afterwards...
kill mayan spear near cori
notice iron near caughnawaga. I could live without iro swords, but better then MWs.
switch cori to temple, I'd like to put some distance between us and a civ with a fast UU.
IBT:
iros lose some more swords
incans send some units
the chinese seem to target machu

a bab sword on flatlands (behind river) holds off two swords before falling.

IBT:
first iro sword gives me a scare, reducing army to half it's HP. the rest does almost no damage.
lit->HB
reduce science to some scientists. they would get pottery in 4, so switch to that.

kyoto: sword->sword
GLib in 28 (leave it on palace for now). MM for 4 food instead of 2, sacrificing one shield (due to corruption).

IBT:
iro settler pair joins the party
lot of units move toward cuzco
cori expands
Turn 10:
kyoto: sword->sword
almost lose sword preventing chinese spear from pillaging dyes
Notes to next player:
not sure we should let the settlers through, but i doubt they'll start to pillage.
to play it safe, a temple in eulbar might be better. i'd like to know the landform though, we met all civs.
didn't dare moving our units near the iro sword stack. would have had a chance last turn, but moved workers on fp before noticing.
moving sword into vilca and one on the mountain would prevent bab spear from going there. I preferred to have the unit closer to cuzco.
my plan to road the mountain for safe passage seems like a waste now. suggest you move the worker stack to road toward vilca (after road on fp) and the slaves for eulbar.
as long as there's a chance for GLib, I think we should go only on scientists. could switch some to taxmakers, remember to switch back after pottery.
I think it's time to go on the offensive again. but we should decide on where first. iros have big enough cities closeby, but I doubt we'll be able to hold such a frontline, at least as long as we're building GLib. I'd try to take out the babs in the east.
