Brief report for today, I hope I can write a more in depth post next turn when I trigger the GA:
OH and Hitru declared war on superjm to kill a scouting chariot to get their GG, and it is heading towards the SOZ city, that should give them 8XP land units and 5XP boats. The desert tile will be forted soon enough. But as SPI, it is only a matter of time for them to drop into Vassalage or even Theo (Vassalage, on the route to knights). So that's the clock I'm now up against.
I need Monarchy, Feudalism, Machinery and Guilds, and I'm already down Machinery on OH with +40gpt at max tax. Oh, and HBR... (Dreylin, did you see if OH researched HBR whilst I was away?) This is going to be fun. Increasing likelihood of Slavery after GA. I don't think OH will plan to attack me with knights, I would expect him to go after DZ, but if I give him that opportunity OH will go for it. I at least have to cover it. On the plus side, both HE will be up and running well before then, so it is just the tech problem I need to solve (shock, horror, answer is court houses).
