Typical turn, T54

Obvious barb move has obvious response...

...with the obvious outcome of the lost 50/50. I moved the northern warrior onto the plains hill, if the barb attacks it is into 50% defense and if the warrior loses, well, you can't win games if you constantly lose 90% battles.

Horse hooked T55. Work pig, horse, sheep, grass hill mine, plains hill mine for 14 hpt, build chariot. Chariot, growth@6 eot55, 1 hammer overflow. T57 work pig, sheep, horse, fp, grass cottage for 15fhpt and build settler, T59 whip for 3 pop. T60 regrow on axe or chariot.

We are up about 3 pop on OH, but down 4fpt. OTOH, we have 2 unhappy pop that are about to get whipped away and aren't producing anything so...I just focus on that GNP figure. Going to keep on saving gold for a few more turns. Not sure if we want to grab Writing next rather than Masonry or Sailing due to city 4 losing that worker. I think we had a window to cram the library in, but I think that's gone now.
