I hope so. I'll be in caste in ~8 turns, and should be able to hold the iron with a barracks + artist after the first ring border pop in Chicken Coop (with a 4th-ring expansion in Carnival in 5 turns helping to fortify the city tile).
More unfortunate is that my trade routes with Oxy are fucked. While I still have all my routes filled with ICTR, Oxy and I both have huge cities worth tons of $$$, and without that big cash money coming to both of us it'll be tougher to maintain the peace with tensions being so high. Need to get some longbows out...
