T35 [initial]
Everything looking good so far. I stick with the Wheel, with the plan of going up to Pottery.
I don't want to whip Gluttonville to the ground, so I let the settler complete naturally with the intent of letting it grow to size 4, chopping a worker, then double-whipping a settler.
T37
Hut popped, we receive a completely boring 51 gold.
T41
Celtic people are bragging about their truffles, claiming they are the most delicious in the world! [Who left events on?
]
Oh, also, copper city is founded:
Don't worry, Mansa, we plan to use our copper for purely peaceful purposes! Ghandhi loves everything living being, even scum such as yourself.
T43
Wheel completes, I double back on my own previous plan and go Mysticism for easier border pops in the gold/rice city.
Worker successfully chopped out.
We meet Brennus of the Dutch in the east.
Unrestricted leaders is going to get confusing really fast. About this time I realize we don't have any actual scouting units, which is probably a bad idea.
T45
I take a risk with a warrior and attack a lion in open ground, and win without a scratch!
T46
Judaism founded. I double-whip the settler in Gluttonsville, with a chop overflowing onto a worker [originally planned to overflow into an ax, but failed to connect the copper with a road
].
T49
Mysticism completes, I select Pottery.
T50
Stonehenge BIDL. Worker completes, I select Barracks as a placeholder [we should probably build a scouting warrior].
Third city is ready to be founded 1 SW of the peak, but I leave that to the next person. Our 4 workers are still unmoved as well.
Emperor is legit.
