T1
I decided to move before setteling. Settling on a hill gives a extra shield in the city-tile, plus a defense bonus. So I move the tribe 2 SW, where it is on a hill, next to the river and still gets the cow.
Research is on math, wich is allways good to trade.
T2
Found Seoul, start a scout. worker starts roading.
T6
Scout -> scout
T11
second cout finnished ( I buildt two, because Seoul did grow slow before it`s borders expanded to the cow, and coulnd´t build a clan so soon.) Tribal guard next.
T14
Growth, lux to 10%
T15
Tribal guard finnishes, start clan. Set lux to 0% (Well - I noted down that I did it, but forgot it...realized it a few turns later. These are the things that prevent me from ever being able to defeat demigod or higher. Sigh.) Seoul would still finnish the clan faster than it would grow, so I build another tribal guard first.
T21
Second tg finnished, and I finally realize that I forgot to drop lux to 0 and do it. Start clan.
T24
Math completed. My first instinct is to go for mansonry, but from what my two scouts have discovered we might be on some sort of island. So I go for boat building.
T26
Turns out we`re on a peninsula, and rome has bloced the only conection to the rest of the world with two tribal guards. So no contacts exept rome for us. Trading isn`t possible, because rome lacks alphabet, and thus cannot be tought mathematics. And they would only offer 11 gold for alpha - no thanks.
T29
Clan completes.
I realize that our two tgs could also block the entrance to our peninsula from our side, so that they would be the only miltary we need for quite a long time.
So I send them forth.
Seoul builds another clan.
T30
Boat buildding -> sailing
T32
Pjonyang is founded on the hill next to the cereals. Strangely it counts as being next to a river (I checked for the trade bonus) so this should be a quite nice location.
I was wondering wether it should start on clans at once or if it would be better to grow a little before starting to pump srettlers. A clan would take 11 turns if it starts on size 1. It will probably faster if the city is larger, so I start a granary first.
T36
Sainling finally finnished. Warfare next. I can do some deal withrome. Alphabet and sailing for ritualism and 20 gold.
However, I did not give them mathematics. If I did, they could trade it around as a monopoly, and we`d gain very little. I`d rather rty to get some more contacts first.
T41
Warfare -> mansonry
T43
Seoul: Clan -> granary (I noticed that Seoul produces clan faster than it grows. A granary should fix that.)
T48
Found Wonsan on the coast. Start a kublai transport. The first scout has returned home and disbands in Pjongyang, speeding granary up one turn.
T49
Mansonry -> cultivation
Summary:
We have only three cities yet, but two of them are potential clanfactories.
We can also start searching for contacts beyond the roman blockade soon.
