Cultural win in 1790 AD.

Thanks for playing and reporting, Lee.

Oracle for MC was an unusual choice for a cultural game; what was your thing with that move?

Finally, Rostov was a bit of a decoy city because although it's a good site, a jungle location would have been better in the long run.

I wanted to get an ASAP production boost and forges. At that point I thought I was going to build a lot of wonders. It was after this point I realized I didn't factor cash rushing. Later in the game was went I realized to cash rush temples, etc.

I often suffer in these variants as I don't adjust to different play fast enough.

If I didn't get stuck with the barbs in Gem city, I would have went with that. I figured 50+ turns of work and cottage maturation would help Rostov more then it did.
