Turn 107
Okay, here is a stitch of the new land plako has shown us. I think the plan to land lunch in Ichabod's road network and go make some new friends is still good. WilliamLP, retep and Bacchus are all over there. By the way m_h took the incense for open borders deal with plako.

I think we still have a chance of settling our iron city with m_h. If we move our settler to the iron this turn his only choice is to settle in place, and he can only do that if he moves the archer to "another x" first and spots what we're doing. If he doesn't notice or he moves 1E to the plains hill we can settle on iron. If he does settle in place we can settle the hill next to the sugar and contest the iron and rice. Or we go to the coastal site to try to steal the corn (perhaps a really dumb move?) I haven't moved anything yet as you may have other opinions here.

Our friend dtay has a galley here, I was planning to move the worker by Issy to road the forest this turn, but we don't have cover for him. How about chopping that forest into the settler for France instead? Issy pops borders in five turns. Down south should G pasture the horse instead of starting on the next jungle?

And I think I know Suttree's sinister plan now. If he'd left the galley 1S he could have hit our worker out of the fog. As it is we have a choice. Cover the worker, cover the rice or cover both. Presumably there are two Axes on board, so on the hill one bowman gets 80-90% odds of defending, but that means the second axe will likely kill him. If we put units on the rice all the defensive battles are coin flips. I'd suggest putting thestick and yossarianlives on the hill to make them land on the rice, bringing THH and Viqsi to Jamestown, giving Hykephalos CI to bring him back up to 77 HP, then moving him to one of the two hills from where he'd get 65% against a CI axe. We then give Thestick Shock and he gets 73% against a CI axe. Actually Thestick might be more expendable than Hykephalos
Any thoughts?

Up here it looks like dtay is keeping an eye on this region, not sure why, but I didn't move Matt this turn as I don't want to tip our hand just yet (and unit costs). He'll have to move to the forest next turn with the worker.

Overall I barely moved any units at all, things still to do:
- whip worker in Gallipoli
- whip granary in Hastings (also what are we doing with the worker and the forest chop?)
- decide on worker moves near France and Issy
- decide on settler move near m_h
- decide on defensive moves near Suttree
