Ok. I understand. Was that a got it?

Edit: Never mind, I got mixed up here...
 
Just some things I noticed in the save.

What a big land we have, well done. It's good to settle the east, we are going for Domination, so get the tiles we need. We still need settlers more than workers. Therefore I suggest we still focus on them. Workers can be bought, settlers can't be bought. We are extremely lucky to have a big area without civs (the far East of the map). This makes Domination a lot easier. Grab it, if we don't take it now we have to take it later and that is very very hard. And there are 2 luxuries we don't have. Fill up the galleys with settlers and grab grab grab.

Why are Edfu, Buto and Pithom making workers ? They are size 1 and will disband the city doing that.

Iroquois have 2 workers on offer. Go for it.

Shaka is annoyed. We might consider giving him stuff to get him polite again.

Look out for Germany, they have nearly conquered the Iro's. After that they'll go for our Eastern-lands. Or they go for our core. Be prepared.

Boy is this game going well or what ? :)

The turns...

260AD [1]: Seems like Bede has pressed enter here... Map tour. Man, there is an enormous land area in he SE area of our continent! :eek: That would propably be a good place for the FP, unless we have already built it... Push enter.

IBT: We get a palace expansion. :king:

270AD [2]: There's a settler near Edfu... not sure where to go. start journey NE...

IBT: Mao offers WM+ 7 gold for WM, I agree.
Elephantine worker > library.
Whoops, El Amarna riots...
Lisht wor > temple.

280AD [3]: :sleep:

IBT: Julie builds a city between Edfu and the other one over there.

290AD [4]: :sleep:

IBT: Mephis Cathedral > library.
:cringe: Alexandria riots. I should be more careful...
Viroconium revolts to us. :)

300AD [5]: Now I remember to check if ciies are rioting. None are.

IBT: Byblos spear (?) > lib.

310AD [6]: :sleep:

IBT: Again I forgot to check for rioting coties. :cringe: Byblos riots.

Build Mendes, start worker.
Build El- Ashmunein, start worker.

IBT: Alexandria Harbor > cathedral.
Avaris worker > temple.
Busiris wor > temple.
Kahun wor > temple.

340AD [9]: Rember that we don't need science and that cathedrals are as cheap as libraries and produce the same culture but produce three happy faces, so I change all cities building a library to cathedral if they don't have one.

IBT: Lisht temple > cath.
Kahun temple > cath.

350AD [10]: :sleep:

Summary: I actually propably didn't build eough settlers. Maybe the next one should build somemore. But I did my best...

Go grab the land and use brains instead of like I did...
