Here we go again...
4000 BC: Yech, Flood Plain. There's a river nearby, though.
It appears that we're inland, with mountains
and hills all around us. Should head for the hills, but there's some jungle nearby.
What I think I'll do is settle for now and see if there's a better place to go later on.
ISTANBUL FOUNDED
Hmm, some wheat and game nearby. I send the Worker there.
Construction's a must, so I set that as a goal. Working the slider doesn't really do anything,
so I set it back a little for some quick cash.
3950 BC: Building.
3900 BC: Building.
3850 BC: Worker finishes road on hill.
3800 BC: He moves to wheat.
3750 BC: Worker begins work on road.
3700 BC: Our man finishes the road to the wheat.
3600 BC: He moves north to connect the game. Incense is spotted west in a desert.
3550 BC: Building.
3500 BC: Cultural influence expands. Warrior is finished, and is sent to the goody hut
just spotted northeast...
3450 BC: Our good men move ever closer to their goals.
3400 BC: Worker begins connecting the game to Istanbul, and Warrior gets 25 shells.
(We now have 72 gold with +4 per turn.)
3350 BC: Warrior is sent north. More mountains, but water is spotted!
3300 BC: Warrior continues north.
3250 BC: Dyes are spotted on the coast, with some in the jungle south of Istanbul.
Warrior continues north. Worker finishes road.
3200 BC: Worker is sent southwest of Istanbul to irrigate.
3150 BC: Cattle spotted on the coast. Istanbul's Spearman Coalition is founded. Let's
have 'em stay there, shall we?
3100 BC: Our brave Warrior continues north. Worker finishes irrigation. Snow-capped
peak is found, along with ivory and a goody hut to the west. Warrior is sent there.
3050 BC: Worker sent SW to mine.
3000 BC: Ah, the wonderful feeling of knowing how to shape the clay between your fingers...the goody hut gave us Pottery!
Yeahhh, it's an okay start, I guess, but not nearly as good as the first one.
Here's the save. Hope it works this time!
