Precheck: really tough situation 
1) 1160 BC
Our Iron Defender killed barb Archer. Hail to the hero!
The moment of truth for Tlateloco is coming...
2) 1120 BC
We've just connected the dead city to the capitol. I move the worker to hook up the iron...
Teotihuacan: Warrior->Archer
3) 1080 BC
Tenochtilal: Archer->Barracks
New Barb archer is coming from the south. I gave Cover to Iron Defender and moved him towards the enemy
4) 1040 BC
Waiting for the enemy...
5) 1000 BC
Our people gave them no chance. Our archer avenged the burning of Tlateloco and Iron Defender got some more exp too.
Next Archer is spotted near by Teotihuacan
6) 975 BC
Teno: Barracks->Settler
7) 950 BC
Those barbs are really stupid. Attacking archer in the city through the river? I gave the defending archer City Gar I.
8) 925 BC
Pottery->Writing
I thought seriously about Agri, but we have no need to build farms just now. But feel free to change it.
9) 900 BC
Iron hooked up and connected. Put Worker on go to the building of the road to Teotihuacan. We should use the settler which is due 5 to build New Tlateloco.
We need more troops - archer protecting the worke would go to new tlateloco, so build and archer or two in Teno before goung for worker or another settler.

Well, sh*t. Rough turnset, ucel.
I got it and am looking at it apprehensively. I'll try to play later tonight, after I finish working.
I think my goals will include the following:
Build as many units as possible (I like axemen a LOT more than archers). Try to build another settler. We need more cities (which was what I thought Tlateco would've been good for, with all the food bonuses and such).
Onresearch choices after writing... are we trying to get Alphabet? We should probably try to set up some sort of research plan. It just doesn't feel right, sending the Aztecs, a warlike people, after Alphabet. But then again, nothing really about this game feels right, so...

Ready to go after Zalson.
Well, this wasn't the most interesting turn set. I've been writing so much lately, that I've decided just to give a plain ol' report.
Inherited Turn: Not much to do; leave the Tlateco Avenger protecting the worker (We NEED another one, very soon). I've decided to try to build a road to Tlateco, and then pasture the horses.
1. A warrior, in the south, emerges from the fog, heading for our garrison at Teotihuacan.
2. The warrior walks onto the hill outside Teotihuacan; the garrison steels for an attack.
3. The attacking warrior decides he likes forests better, and walks in. We don't bite.
IT- Finally, the warrior decides it's done living. We win handily.
4.
5. Tenochitlan Settler>Axe
Teotihuacan Archer> Jag
The adventure-some (sic) settlers head to rebuild New Tlateco on it's ruins.
6. An injured warrior emerges from the darkness (I have show enemy moves on); don't know what happened to him.
New Tlateco is founded, and there is much rejoicing.![[party]](/images/smilies/partytime.gif "Party [party]")
The Tlateco Avenger heads on home.
I realize that Tenochitlan is set not to grow. I change this, swapping some stuff around.
IT: Say hello to Huyana Capac. Couldn't find him in the drunkness from the party of New Tlateco.
7. Tenochitlan Finishes an axe, and starts another one.
8. Writing>Alphabet. We need to catch up techwise; I think we need to find out what we don't know.
9. The new archer from Teotihuacan breaks in his bow, killing a Barb Archer. He's now in New Tlateco.
10. Teno Axe> Archer, due in 2; With another one I'd feel alright about building the gold city to help our finances (Try to found on the desert; even with the overlap with New Tlateco, it'll salvage that desert square.
Moses was born elsewhere.
I left the axe fortified in Tenochitlan; it only had a warrior for protection
Again, sorry for the lack of verbosity and screenshots; I just wanted to play some :civ:. Ugh for midterms!

I have it. Need to read up a bit.
Let me know if this makes any sort of sense. park some type of unit, archer, warrior, igor, whatever in the area the barbs are appearing in. If you can see the tile, it won't spawn barbs. I've used leftover scouts for this with some success.

Pre-flight – 250 - Bump science up a little. We have a few units to move. I send them towards the southeast in search of bad guys.
1. 225 - We haven’t researched agriculture yet, so I switch to it. We need it for a rice farm. We have more barbs inbound. Move two units next to some on good defensive terrain.
IBT – Kill two barbs.
2. 200 – Healing some, moving others south and southeast.
3. 175 – More of the same.
IBT – Confucianism is founded far, far away.
4. 150
5. 125 – Move our new settler onto Pink Dot. A barb warrior is two turns away. We’ll have a defender as the new city is founded.
6. 100 – Pink Dot is founded. Start an obelisk for expansion
IBT – Agriculture=>masonry
7. 75 – Negotiate open boarders with Hatty.
IBT – Kill two more barbs and get two promotions.
8. 50
IBT – Kill another barb.
9. 25
10. 1 AD
After Action – We have a few more military personnel. We need to get the gold at Pink Dot on line:
Note the two sentries to the south.
Here is the north:
And our explorers:
This guy may not survive. I had him heading towards the southeast to bust some fog as indicated.
