Turn 35

[DaveShack]

Warrior completes in Shelbyville, another queued (in 4).

We now have a settler due in 3 (after growth gives us more shields), 2 warriors in 4. Philo is due in 3, we have 9g and are running -1gpt.

We are up writing and down IW, WC, Wheel, CB. Since MIA seem to have just received the Wheel (as previously reported) they are just starting on writing, if at all, so we should receive full price. The tech costs work out that an offer of writing for one of their resource techs and one non-resource should be an even trade cost wise, or slightly in their favor.

Good to see you back!

Why do you think they have the Wheel?

looks like philo will help us provided no one else is getting it in 3 turns, they might though, i mean they will probably expect us to go for HBR, and our UU, so at least one other civ is probably researching philo. of course we are down quite a few techs, so other teams might just have started philo. either way we need more gold. is there a barb camp nearby or even a goodie hut something to get us money? philo's free tech will catch us up slightly and it might be a nice barganing chip.

CA2 says they have it. Playing with the slider and looking at F6 would yield a tech cost less than the base cost, indicating someone we know has it -- and they're the only ones we know...

Thanks! You're right, I see it too.
