Turn 71 pt 1
And the bad news is that OT finished one spear and double-whipped, probably for a second. He also whipped Hippo and Kerkouane for one pop each, which is nice after he made us do the same! At the moment there seem to be two options:
1. move back to the pigs where a combat-road could leave us vulnerable
2. move to the forest 2E of Carthage, from where we can run away or (hopefully) continue a campaign of terror.
While we ponder that move a couple of other issues - I'm sure that this is an island now (SW of Baldur's Gate). It's not a strong location until a border pop (or with an extra seafood we can't see). But this makes me think we should switch to sailing, then 2-whip a galley out of BG and another settler out of Col.
And up here this is definitely an island too. And a city between crab and sheep would be very nice. Perhaps a galley from AC and a settler from, um, Col again? We only need one oversea city until currency though so I'd probably pick this one first. We know William has only had this city in place for a couple of turns so getting a galley out of it might not be his highest priority...
