Pizzeria - the next episode has come with a pleasant military assessment - we are overhelming the Aztecs Nicely done guys!
It's time to get one client out of the restaurant - guess who ?
On the pre-turn, I've moved some troops on Aztec front - disatching whatever necessary here and there. I even managed to capture a worker.
Then, I opened the self service for late customers, handing away Litterature to Bismy and Civil Service to Ramessess. As Pacal wasn't hungry for pizza, I managed to side-sell him a clam - must be something linked to his traditional meals, better eat clam than pizza.

A barb HA nearly captures Toledo - lone Axe was left with 0,6 after this attack.

Btw, WW is starting to hurt just a small bit...
268
Bismy asks for paper (maybe he has some stomach upsets with the last pizza he get) - I see no need to get him unhappy with us, especially we are at Monty's table - anyway he would have been gifted paper later on
(IT) Paper - Education
I figured we might as well chase Liberalism for a free Nationalism or Military Tradition bulb - soon we will have to attack with something more than a bunch of jumbos and maces - this one must be timed well, if it goes as foreseen we should have 15 turns before being forced to serve the stuff away.
Reminder for next players: keep a bunch of HA ready and generate a GMerchant somewhere where it can go fast - cuirass for Bismy!

I suicide one cat on Xochicalco and capture the city for no more damages:
Kept the city, seems to be a decent location and we will need it for domination anyway.

Sorry for not having asked - I figured our game won't last long enough to impact it a lot, and it gives us a nice production boost in the meantime

Capture Atzca-stuff ( not necessary to spell it well - I razed this poor city. In hindsight I think I should have kept it, as it was the final piece of the North-South division - maybe the next player should colonize this spot anew )
274
I drop down a little the remaining city's defenses (Calix-something)
275
Courthouse@Toledo - whip mace - there is a barb sword next to the city, I must have missed the warning due to warring
Attack Calixlatuaca with 2 suicide cats (it still had 38% defenses - would have spent three more turns before getting them to the ground) and our SoD. No military losses, except the cats:
Monty paid the bill, and left the restaurant happy (maybe it was too much red Lambrusco we served him with the meal?).
I change spy points, setting Pacal to get 67% and Bismy 33%. Ramesses will be unspyed for the moment.

The barb sword next to Toledo has destroyed our pig pasture (before being killed by the mace) - so I trade for pigs with Ramesses giving him the silk.

Whip a mace in Barca to face the incoming HA - we only had an axe inside, I don't want to gamble with it.

Mace faces well the HA in Barca

Calix stuff wants to be german - I say 'don't worry, the germans will soon want to be malinese. Be sure you're on the right side' - weird I didn't get any applause

OK, some overview screenies :
I put two small signs. The one next to Timbuktu is two maces. I would add another mace and a cat or two to them and go for the small Maya outpost next to us. It has almost no cultural defenses, is on flat land, but has 2 longbows inside.
The other point to the north, is the rallying point at the city of Tlamalacatalacatala (or alike), where our SoD will heal before going from the north for the confu-holy city and the capital.
I don't know where are Mayans other cities - for instance the Chitchen is not on our landmass, though it's the third city in the list, while some latter ones are
I think we will be ready in several turns to attack Pacal and finish him off (especially on the landmass) in a few turns with our current troops.
For Bismarck we will need something more. Also, he already has Engineering for his troops better road movement. I think we better cover every part of the aztec and spanish land with culture, kill Pacal and see how much more land do we need.
As for our domination status:
Our last turn servings:
Paper for Ramesses and Pacal - must definitely be something with their last dish, it's not a coincidence
Bismy is not hungry this turn (surely still ill from the last time).
I revolt for Serfdom, keeping Police State/Vasselage/Theocracy config for more warring to come.
Next waiter is up

5. Azaris - waiting.
