GE's Palace theme again (spoilers)

Wow!  the other 3 managed to move the turn around in just over 3 hours.  However, I was already asleep when it got back to me. Good thing I chose to switch my PC on this morning or they'd have to wait another 9 or so hours rolf

Turn 38 & damn, I'm going to regret accepting Open Borders!  Dreylin's got 10 turns to scout my cities!! banghead  Wonder how long it'll take Eagle002 (Dog Soldier) to find his culture?

Writing came in at end of this turn.

Turn 45 & Ian Holloway (3rd city) settled to grab 2 Gold tiles. Workers have nearly roaded to the wet Rice; small error on my part.

Settler also en route to settle Dougie Freedman (4th city) on a backfill site next turn; will take the Sheep from Pardew until the Pigs are Pastured.

Also note that Adrien nabbed The Oracle a couple of turns ago ... bugger ... should've beelined Monarchy before Calendar banghead

Turn 49 & Mathematics is in. 100% tech cost 10g per turn, so I need 70g to tech Calendar .. will work out the sums next turn.

Turn 52 & 2nd Library built in Pulis (may have omitted to mention the one in Pardew).

Hmm, so Sam Allardyce is the new manager @ Palace. Next city will have to reflect this as I'm not renaming the first 4!

Turn 60 & 5th city, Sam Allardyce, settled. Meditation also came in this turn.

Omitted to report that Calendar completed on turn 58; can't remember if Sailing came in before or after Mathematics.

Turn 61 & George Burley (my 6th city) settled. Only once it was settled did I noticed Adrien has a Chariot lurking! Bugger, I fully expect a declaration of War when he opens the turn. I have a Dog Soldier en route if he does & it may get lucky. i also finished Priesthood at end of turn. 100% tech now costs 23g/turn so I need 92g to finish Monarchy in one go.

Turn 62

Phew, he didn't attack .. yet.

Gold & Sugar are online & improving Happy Cap as well as finances, Silk will follow shortly. 0% tech yields 30g/turn so 4 turns before I flip the switch to 100% for Monarchy. 2 Settlers in the pipeline, I for a Horse site backfill, the other to stretch out to border either Pickle or Dreylin! Adrien needs to come through either of them, or invade by sea to get me; will plan a Navy to prevent this opportunity.

Turn 66 & Dreylin killed one of my Dog Soldiers (Eagle009) for no apparent reason.  No idea why the Combat Report says my guy had a Strength of 2.28 instead of 4. Or how he got 96% odds when an attack by me gives Eagle004 a 50% chance, I withdrew him from range just in case,  duh  Dog Soldiers are Axemen banghead .  He immediately offered a Cease Fire, I've replied with Peace Treaty & requested 25g compensation (half the cost of upgrading a Warrior and also a turn of 100% tech smoke ).  He's got a Chariot trapped on the other side of my culture from him, so he'll have to declare war again, or offer Open Borders again, to get it out.  Plus it's where I want a city, so I'll have to do Hunting next, was planning on getting Archery anyway, to spam out Spearmen to counter his, and Adrien's, Chariots.

Turn 67 & Dreylin didn't accept the peace treaty, or maybe the request didn't send. Either way, sent an amended request, with a lower demand of 20g compensation.

Monarchy completed at end of turn, will revolt to Hereditary Rule next turn.
