Killed a sword and enslave a settler.
Two knights in the army and another will be loaded next turn.

We take Inchon
Moving forces up to clobber Egypt.
Turn 10 330 AD
We take Novgorod. I thought this was the Koreans last city but they must have gotten a settler out.
Many units still have movement and are ready to beat Cleos brains in. I didnt want to declare on my last turn.
I never saw hide nor hair of the Vikings. But that will change. Hopefully they will sail up the coast and get picked off by barb galleys.
We have:
28 Horses, 10 Pikes, 22 Knights, 1 Army, 12 MI's, 14 Trebs
I think this is more than enough to cut down the Egyptians in short order. Please don't drain our backyard of units such as a Zerk, horse, etc. or two could be a real pain.
Some cities have mild WW (<20%)
