Turn 58
Azza settled a very nice city in the far west:

There is no way Mardoc is going to be happy about this though
Btw, happy that Azza did not get horses into his BFC here.
Meanwhile we have our own border clash here (OH also voted for option 2 so we are not starting an open conflict yet..):

Expected thing is that Azza settles in place and our units teleport away, but history has shown that in similar situations surprising things can happen. Maybe 3 warriors that we have here seem threatening to him and he backs off.. Well, I'm not counting on it and adjusted the micro based on that. Damn, I'm totally itching to press that declare button here.. still time to do it until Azza plays his turn..
Anyways, Azza is definitely not going to get that plains hill site where we are standing, which is a win regarding our future borders.
In domestic news we whipped our 4th granary and settler for city 6 (or 5 if our western settler still annoyingly spends 1000 years traveling to a new site).
