Great job on the leader. Yeah Pyramids is prolly the way to go. I'm sorry about that auto worker deal. I hate automate so it could be possible I hit automate by accident. Well let's continue to kick butt.

lurker's comment: You may want to grab those horses first to upgrade them to War Elephants later. It will be better then building too many archers now.

I have to wonder about the placement of bangalore yet again. Surely 1 NW of its original position would have bern ideal. It is on the river, unlike the new location and we dont have 100 shields to spare for an aqueduct, it has all the benefits of the new spot u suggested, maybe its current site would have some positives over the site i suggested if it gave us access to a resource or the land was developed but it does neither and jungles take 18 turns to clear as we are not inustrious... however it is a giant waste to move it again. I will have to think about what I will do with it in my turns. Good work with regards iron. I'll switch production to swords very soon and we can finish the French.
Consider this a got it.

pre-flight: Micromanage a few things, HBR goes back a turn but we have settler and an archer a turn earlier. After checking the distances from Delhi i opt to keep Banglore as it doesnt mess up the RCP and now agree with markh's idea about the next city, apologies if i came across badly in the previous post, switch delhi to chariots which we can later upgrade. Iron up next turn, hit enter.
IBT - Nothing
Turn 1 - Move a few troops around, heal the archers under our elite warrior, get settler in position. Marshalling archers to push into France. Switch Madras build to Sword.
IBT - French archers show up from what was once Paris, Babylon finishes the Great Lighthouse.
Turn 2 - Marshall troops, attack and kill a barb warrior up north without loss.
IBT - French archer attacks our elite warrior and dies (1-0), redlining our warrior. Barb horse attacks warrior up north and dies.
Turn 3 - Delhi: Chariot --> Spear, Bombay: Settler --> Chariot. Found Calcutta set to rax (20 turns). Delhi has just 1 Mp which is what the spear is for as that way we won't need to run the lux slider till it reaches size 5. With a new city income is up to +2gpt HBR in 3.
IBT - Nothing
Turn 4 -
another barb camp for 25 gold, lux has to go up 10% to stop delhi rioting.
IBT - Nothing
Turn 5 - Delhi: Spear --> Settler (due in 3, growth in 2) also can now drop lux back to 10% and science back to 40% and still get HBR next turn at +11gpt in the interturn. We have archer stacks in 2 lots of French territory, decide to check on France, they are up writing on us but down maths and have 2 less cities then us. They also have no available contacts so we must be alone with them.
IBT - HBR comes in, set to poly due in 13 at -4gpt but that will change as we are about to founf another city. Teotihuacan finishes the collosus.
Turn 6 - Archers ready to attack lyons and orleans next turn. Found Lahore, poly drops from 13 at -4gpt to 12 at -3gpt. Set to warrior as we need some cheap MP's.
IBT - French archer attacks 1 of our stacks in the forest and dies taking 1 hp off our archer (2-0)
Turn 7 - Madras: Sword --> Worker, raise lux by 10 to prevent riot in Delhi. Taking a leaf out of Lboogie13's book i attack Orleans with just 3 vet archers... and destroy the city withou loss killing 2 spears and an archer, exactly the number of defenders that i had attackers (5-0)! Think 'what the hell, why not?' and attack Lyons with 4 and...
Keep the city as France is gassed and we dont need to worry about flips. Suggest getting workers out of it. Take 3 slaves in the attack. France is down to 2 cities. Once again the city had precisely the number of defenders that i had attackers and we suffered no losses yet again (9-0)! Creepy ay, we'll probably get screwed by the RNG soon though. Have found the limits of our continent. We should look to have France wiped out by the end of the next turnset.
IBT - Our ppl want the FP.
Turn 8 - Delhi: Settler --> Settler (due in 4 growth in 2). Locate France's 2 cities, stacks headed that way. Reduce Lux to 0 and science to 90% for Poly in 11.
IBT - Nothing
Turn 9 - Bombay: Horse --> Settler (due in 5 growth in 4) have to raise lux by 10. Attack and kill barb warrior up north without injury.
IBT - plenty of Barb movement.
Turn 10 - Fortify stacks outside French territory to heal, found Karachi --> Rax, Poly down to 8.
A map of our (increasingly) glorious empire.
and of course the save

No need to apologize.
I thought long about the placement of Bangalore. With the current location we have a good core now. It will be more powerful in the long run. If we would have had another neighbour I definitely would have not put it there. Normally I keep 3-tile spacing in AW, but here we are alone on a continent and we have no pressure.
Let's get out of despotism asap and then I would suggest writing and mapmaking to find the other AIs.
Great work on France. This turns out being too easy.
We should connect some spices soon. With the pyramids our cities grow fast, so luxes are always welcome.

Yes it is proving a tad easy, but i think thats down to the quality of the start we got more than anything else. It occurs to me that as we are religious we could even grab republic at some point and switch as we are alone and may have a long time like that depending on how the world is set out. However for the moment lets contniue toward monarchy. We already have spices hooked up, under Madras. Hooking up anymore won't do us much good as we cant trade them.

Great job tupaclives. See, three archers can really kick butt against the French. I think this is one of the best start points I have ever seen. And to end up with the weak French as our neighbor, sweet.
I'll pick up at about 7 E.S.T (about two hours from now). Any suggestions besides finishing off the French??

I like the new placement of Bangalore, I think it will really pay off in the long run. Great job tupaclives, the French are on the ropes, bring it home Lboogie13. I think we need to get another 1st ring city SE of the cow & then expand to the Ivory.

Good stuff, France is gone and we are down to 6 opponents. Suggest making settlign the continent priority now, once Monarchy comes up head for map making as fast as we can. Take Delhi off wealth and put it onto settler, we have size 3 cities building temples we do not need, why? Lets get them onto settlers and start colonizing, build workers to keep the happiness under control, remember guys we have a lot of jungle to clear. Dont neglect the military we need lots of troops for this game, keep an eye out for major barbarian uprisings, thats the clue that someone has entered the next age.

Barbs are really raging. It's been a while since I've had this much trouble with them. We got some Settlers out in a hurry. I think we should continue to grow, but balance it out by building up our military more. We're going to need a few more workers if we're going to take care of the jungle and keep up with the expansion. Right now we have 16 cities and 16 workers, it would be nice to get the ratio up to 1.5 to 1.

Good stuff, 5 cities founded and we are looking very solid. Our finances are looking very good as well 
. For the next player I would say continue settling the land as that will get rid of the barbs, and make sure we get that Ivory hooked up. Also lets see if we cant send a few suicide galley's to find the new world. We'll also need more workers to develop our land. It occurs to me that the odds are the rest of the world are on 1 continent and if so I suggest we start saving cash now for trades as they will almost definately be ahead of us in tech.
