Turn log:
Turn 505 – 1895 AD
Pre-flight.
Survey our cities for Jails. We need them in New York, Samarquand, Isca, Gergovia, Bjorgevin, Kohlapur, Thaenae, Carthage, Leptis, Sicca, Seattle, Assyrian, Uppsala and Thapsus. Changed them all to production of Jail, although most were already set to Jails.
Have a look to see if we can get any of the other civs to change to Free Religion to help their relations with G as religion is the only thing hurting their relations at the present time. Nothing we can do at present.
Frederiksberg thinks we can take two American cities and stay under the domination limit. I think those should be Philadelphia and Los Angeles to deny Oil and Aluminum to W. In addition, I think we can take and raze Madrid, Murcia, Cordoba and Seville without changing the exterior cultural borders of Izzies empire? That should set her back a bit and, just for added effect, we shall bombard her territory back into the stone age.
Just need to watch as Izzie is providing Coal, Oil, Cow and Dye to G. Of course, if he would take Uppsala and Haithabu, he would have all that stuff except, perhaps, the cow.

After Action Report.
There are unmoved Spies located in Zaragosa and Delhi. There is a Great General in Camulodunum and a Great Scientist in Bibracte.
Seville was building Apollo and we have razed the city. Most of Izzie’s land has been pillaged, as has W’s and H’s.
G’s Destroyers have been pretty active west of Delhi, sinking three of our Destroyers during the turn set. I have repaired most of the damage caused by marauding naval units on our fisheries and Oil Platform.
I think we are nearly ready to attack, take and raze Madrid, Murcia and Cordoba. I thought about doing it but decided the War Weariness might be too much so decided to wait for a team discussion. The forces in Camulodunum should be sufficient for the task if we decide to go.
G took Haithabu but continues to march right past Uppsala. I thought he would take it several times but Frederiksberg is right, he will only do so with Cavalry, no Rifles need apply. At least he has Space Elevator and Three River’s Gorge!
Izzie will talk, but she isn’t offering much! Not that we really need anything from her, except to gift all her tech to G. Is that a menu option??
). We are now down to 56% land. National Epic is rebuilt in Bibracte. We can still use GP's for golden ages.
