OK, I think we close to finish. I thought Mabellino will finish war with English (we do not need WW) but at least she captured 2 Cities and did not lost Paris.
1) Continental politics.
We have to finish war with English NOW! Actually we need Leeds and Avinon (NOT Warwick, Oxford, Grenoble) for parquet plan. Ankka, please do not delay. We need cash. You may test Fortune (try to kill English archers with Elite sword(Newcastle) and Spear(Chartress) or horses from York and catapults from Paris+vet horse, but not more, please. Make Peace.
2)Overseas politics.
India has Chivaliry! Time to get rid of our reputation. Also,
Overseas should fight no matter what!
So, please,
1a) Declare war to Chinise.
2a) Bring Japan to Alliance vs Chinise&India (I think Engineering will be enough)
3a) Make false Peace with India (Ask Chivaliry+gold he have for 50-60 gpt, does not matter)
4a) Declare war to India to save gold.
Note, all these steps (1, 2, 1-4a) in preturn! Do not mix steps.
3)War with Russians. Actually we need Kiev and Vladivostok. The sonner the better. No harm if you take more, but this two Cities is a must. You can start war at your turn 3-4 and finish (or I will finish it). Pull Horses from England to S-Ptbrg and upgrade to Knights. Prepare to defend our South Cities. Use Galley for that.
4) War with France. Again asap. (turn 8-9) Pull swords from England and defit all three French Cities.

Also at preturn.
5) Sensible idea to rush Lib in Saltsburg. It will work on fish and Grassland then.
6) Settler in NW moves unprotected toward to barb camp. Send horse from Stuttgard to cover.
7) Set Lux 10% and Mcmng Berlin to work all 12 Labors (See picture, Hamburg will excuse us). When You road forest You may put Mcmng back.
8) Let Kenig and Munich grow. Gold will come soon.
9)Have no idea what workers near Dortmund and SW New Hamburg do. Stop them and let them do something more useful (irrigate). We will "connect" costal Cities via harbors later.
In turns:
10) New Munich was founded at wrong place. So we need 1 more Cities at NW in comparison with my plan. Yellow point is OK but point 3-4 may be shifted (SE?) and one more costal City on Game should be builded.
11) Settle North Island. It is Huge Area with costal tiles to cover just with two Cities.
That's mean we need at least two more settlers from Moscow, I think thats it, we will need money to upgrade horses and rush Libs.
12)Stuttgart and Smolensk need Aqueducts. Not Marketplaces. But we are short of money to rush this bulck improvements. So build workers there.
13)Mcmng all Cities for max growth. Check English Cities: at Peace they will grow better.
14)Please, do not build non-vet Knights.
15)Good luck!

@mabellino: I surely enjoyed Greece's win over Portugal. England was a bit unlucky yesterday: 2 goals in 2 minutes?
Posting from work now:
To the Team: I'm sorry that I have to withdraw from this game. My new computer has serious incombatibility issues(my WinXP Pro fell apart after a few days, now I can't even install them, so my Pc at home is completely useless), the store that I bought the PC doesn't help any more, and my nerves are almost broken down from their behaviour! I don't know how long it'll take me to find by myself what's wrong, so, I think it's better for you to find another player. Sorry..................................................................................................

@Alex
Your input is still wanted! Don't quit just yet... we're only a few turns away from victory (player turns not game turns!)
And as for those lousy french footballers
@Ankka
Well played, Ivan will come in and storm the French and Ruskies and we'll be laughing all the way to the winners' enclosure!
@Ivan
Go on! Show us how it's done! We're almost there....

Lux 30% again. What for? You did not wrote about that.
Invention still 8 turns... It is minor, however.
Will think.
Without Leeds I am not sure that domination plan will work.
(I hoped to finish game at 40 turns from now, but now I am not sure that 55 turns will be enough).
