Domestic on T50:
- 3 workers finish roads
- 1 worker continue chop
- CM puts overflow hammers into settler and start warrior on T51.
As I said there is two options of food distribution between CM and Stanford. It mostly depends on how fast we need warrior from CM. Are we want it on T54 or it could be delayed till T58?
Another important option is MIT build queue.
- Option 1. Build worker#6 on T55. We had a lot of work to do for workers, so its not 'too many workers'. But this option is low on warriors to fogbust city#4 site and chariot on T58 from MIT can't be done without delaying something else.
- Option 2. MIT start warrior or settler on T52. Could switch settler to granary on T54. Could build chariot on T58 with 1chop and overflow from warrior.
Well played, Teddy.

With the options considered, I am strongly in favor of Option 2. My understanding is that MIT will start on another worker on turn 50, but due to the chop we'll have a new option to build on turn 52. We desperately need defense units out there, and even one chariot can do wonders for barbarian protection.
-Good catch on putting overflow into settler, I didn't think of that for CM. But I think we do want to grow to size 5 and perform a 2-pop whip on turn 55.
-So next turn (turn 50(!)), worker actions are straightforward. Do them, THEN found Stanford (starts on a warrior, right?). We can keep our warriors nearby if needed. CM puts 1 turn into settler, MIT into a worker.
Random thought: what are team My Little Marathon Pony doing? They still don't have a second city founded?
Random thought 2: Diplo situation seems interesting now. Unfortunately there's nothing concrete we can do this early, but perhaps by turn 100...
