[SPOILERS] Zanth's thread

[spacetyrantxenu]

Thanks for the dotmap. Any new exploration to change your current plans? Thoughts about your neighbors, any new plans, etc.?

[zanth]

Sorry, though I constantly updated Open POst, I somehow haven't noticed your question.

1) I've met Azza. All Spying is against him 'cause others have ~70
2) Next turn I would discover Polytheism.
3) And yes, plans have chenged a bit: it seems I would have little chances to conquer Nakor w/o cats. So attack is postponed.
4) General plan is writing -> math (for chopping) -> construction
4a) I would definitely need to plug fishing somewhere in ^ chain.
4b) Going to priesthood for monasteries and maybe Oracle is still an option
5) Settler is going to light blue place. So it's the 4th city! (4 rivals have only 2 now, Sian only capital? and others have 3)
6) Maybe I was too fast connecting copper, so I can't produce warriors, and I need them for scouting purposes. Still, I could go to archery and built my great bowmans.

And some pics for TURN 55
map


and demo

My positions are not high because of whip. And cities are only 2-2-2. Capital would grow next turn, and 2nd city Eq. of motion in 2 turns.
Now I work 6 good tiles, but already have 2 pleasant cottages 2/0/3 and 3rd would be built next turn.


I have little info on my neighbors. All I know is that Nakor is too close and Slowch have met both of Nakor and Azza.

Excellent!
Religion found in 3rd city and already spread to 2nd. Next turn I would have 2nd ring in Schr. eq.

Can you take bigger screens and make them expandable through the [ screenshot ] tag? Can't read the names of cities in yours.

Nice demos. How many cities are you up to?

[zanth]

4. In 3 turns I would grow at Cap. for 5 and produce an axe there and go for settler.

P.S. Btw, total # of cities for each player can be seen at first post at this topic
