Ultraviolet Catastrophe
I like Pottery --> CoL so we can grab another religion and then run artists (and have one city devoted to getting a Scientist for Bolly's academy). But Fishing is so cheap I'd like to do it first and whip a workboat in Delhi to explore--knowing whether or not every AI is Toku is important, and meeting more civs will also help our tech rate. After CoL we can bulb Civil Service with a Great Prophet. We'll also want Hunting at some point for the 2 deer tiles--that city site N of Drona can have 13 extra food, I believe.
I'd like to try for the AP but maybe it would be better to grow our cities first. Drona has a lot of hills and once it gets a granary it can pump out the AP probably as fast as Bolly (once Drona gets Hinduism), leaving Bolly to emphasize cottages, granary, a temple or two (to run priests for that first Prophet and raise our happy cap), monasteries (once we have Meditation, to get the 10% research bonus), etc. But first, I'd really like Drona to whip out that settler and grab the wheat spot. Then I agree we can expand more slowly.
Chris: no hammers invested in Bolly settler.
