I support the 2 warrior wall idea.
With our current resources, it seems our best strategy to deal with a lone archer beelining Sparta.
The fortified hill warrior should have even odds to kill an archer and the forest warrior should be able to finish off the archer if it wins.
This could be problematic. Let's say the archer stays on 2 health after the first fight, standing on a hill. That would be +50% defense and our forest warrior couldn't handle that. We should retreat like Duckweed suggested, but the trouble could start soon when the number of AI cities increases.
It is also far out enough that if things go horribly wrong, Sparta still has time to mount a defense after Oracle.
All barb troubles will be coming from the southwest until barb galleys start appearing everywhere to blow up our very heavy seafood investments.
The best plan to handle barb galleys, if possible, would be to use spawn busting along the coast. If they spawn ~8 tiles from our sea food, they won't see it on their attack radar.
