I will not be present for this turnchat, but I still have instructions for you. I made these nice and unchanged for Octavian.


Bombay (same) - Courthouse- Granary - Worker - Worker

Calcutta (same) - University - Barracks - Granary - Bank

Lahore (same) - Marketplace - Barracks - University - Granary

Minas Alcar (same) - Worker - Worker - University

Improvements: 1) Finish current railroading and jungle-cutting. 2) Railroad the mined hill SE of Calcutta. 3) Mine, then railroad a hill NW of Calcutta. 4) Mine a roaded grassland near Bombay. 5) Mine, then road a hill NW of Lahore. See everybody next week!

Trade

America -

IMPORT: 15gpt
EXPORT: Ivory

England - (It's small, but they need the iron for rails)

EXPORT - Iron
IMPORT - 4gpt

Any deals that expire during the turnchat - Do not renegotiate unless that civ asks.

Turn 2 - If we do not use a spy to steal refining, try to trade for it with steel. If we have to pay anything over the 4,732g for refining, we might have to think about stealing steel. We would trade Steel instead on turn 4.

Preturn 1445AD

Turn 1 - 1450AD

Report from the field: Akkad and Elippi have fallen, and we got a GL! The Pentagon will be rushed as per discussion on the topic. Babylon and Shuruppak are next.

Turn 2 - 1455AD

Field Report - We stole Refining! Based on discussion in the forum, and apparent FA approval, (IIRC...) and feeling VERY lucky with the RNG that turn, we got it "immediately" with no incident. We also took Babylon! Babylon put forth more resistence than expected. Shelling is commencing on Shuruppak. We now have 37 cav, but 53 artillery. The Pentagon was rushed per discussion in the forums. We also pillaged both of Babylon's rubber resources.

Turn 3 - 1460AD

Field Report - We got Shuruppak, and Eridu (the new capital) is now under seige, as will be Nineveh soon. From Nineveh, we can hop to two more cities. We also got 2 more GLs, used for armies, as there's no more wonders to build! As you can see, this plan "did not survive first contact with the enemy". So, we resorted to a "see-saw" pattern. One city, improve, cover, then the next. Rush in the new one, rinse and repeat.

Turn 5 - 1470AD

Field Report - We got another GL! 4 so far! Only 3 more cities remain, Nippur, Sverdolsk, and Sevastopol. Two will surely fall next turn, with Sevastopol on turn 7 (turn 6 if we're lucky).

Turn 10 - 1495AD

Field Report - This turn chat was EXTREMELY fruitful. 5 Great Leaders, over 20 cities taken. Upon attempting to plant a spy per FA, the IRoquois declared war on us! Having a battle plan from the Military department, I took out the cities around the FP. There was a catch to this. The Iroquois snuck through and took 4 of our native workers, and 2 Chinese!. This was our longest turnchat ever, at 10 hours, 33 minutes! We also got the Pyramids, JS Bach and Sun Tzu. We also captured about 20 cities total, 2 of which were razed or autorazed. One probably by the Iroquois after a fierce battle for Kish (which is our less developed region)
