Got 740ad PA on Erkon's save again, but this time skipping Drama. I also threw in 10 cats and Catty and I eliminated Washington, so that Cathy has 6 cities at around 100ad. BUt that I could have done on the Drama route also, I just didn't bother. But I did play a few turns ahead and my absolutely certain conlcusion is that Drama with Globe is the better route. War weariness is immediate and drastic. I suppose because Cathy's strategy is to suicide 50 units per city. This also works well with getting Alpha on T44 and being forced to throw some turns into Drama.
If wb-wkr-wb and wb-wb-wkr are more or less the same, then I think the earlier wkr is much better, because we'll need the stone mine to speed up the GLib and to chop a forest, if we so decide. Even more important, though, is that we want both the stone and marble mined in advance, because we plan to DoW someone at that point and we may have to send the worker to mine copper or iron (hopefully) right then. So there won't be any turns available for the worker to camp furs and the like.
EDIT: I'm even thinking a second worker, somehow, might not hurt. It sure would help later on.
