400: Inherited. All looks good. Delete now-obsolete "Vulnerable city" sign. End turn.
385: Worker finishes in Bilbracte. Start missionary. Spoil Ragnar's rice fields.
370: Roading and scouting.
355: Spot Isabella Archer/Settler pair. Put one turn into chop west of Bilbracte and leave note about it.
340: Axe kills Ragnar scout. Vienne whips barracks, has enough food to grow without any surplus. Missionary and growth both due in 2T at Bilbracte.
325: Vienne starts chariot. Chariot only has 25% odds v. Isabella settler on hill; avoid. Iron mine started. Axe heals (2T) from killing scout.
310: Missionary completes in Bilbracte; start settler
295: Eastern archer discovers Ragnar's Haithabu. Only 2 archers in each of Ragnar's cities. Archer will try to pester both cities to delay Iron hookup.
280: Find Isabella's borders to southeast. Iron mine (w/o road) completes in Tolosa as Jewish Missionary spreads faith there.
265: Barcelona with a single archer garrison!
250: Pillage farm near Barcelona. Chariot completes in Vienne; start archer to garrison new eastern city. Road to iron completes (announcement next turn)
That's 10 turns and a reasonably even number, so I stop here. We now have Iron, so Vienne (or others) could start training Gallics. I didn't help much on the troop buildup, but we should be set to build next turn.
Isabella's settler got past me when it was clear her settler was going to be able to stay in forests or hills on its way to a city site.
I think we're going to be about one turn short of being able to finish Construction at 100%, which is fine
I have an archer alternating between a hill and a river-forest thus keeping an eye on two of Ragnar's cities on alternate turns. Each has a two-archer garrison. This seems to be keeping him from developing there, including hooking up his Iron. but maybe I'm deluding myself.
I left many signs on the map. They are not sacred. Please delete them if their message is obsolete or irritating to you.
I think we're going to have trouble supporting many (any?) more cities for a while.
Ragnar might be low-hanging fruit. Do we want to bring it to him?
There is still another civ out there. Maybe they're trapped in a ring of peaks?
Recommendations:
1) Found city to the east. I like Mike's spot. A worker who roaded the Iron is free to road, chop, camp the deer there. An archer (could be changed) is queued in Vienne to garrison the city, though the just-completed chariot can go there now.
2) Chop. I concentrated more on resources and, not sure when the AI might be incoming, connecting the Iron.
3) Build troops! Especially in Vienne (has some whip anger from granary and barracks) and Tolosa.
4) How to harass the AI?
