I 2 pop whipped the settler and am going to be building military, since i'm dead last in that category. Nothing like being last in mil to say 'target!!'

I have to go get monarchy. I need me some vertical growth and there aren't many luxuries that are easily accessible. So, after currency, I'll go med->priesthood->monarchy. Being a follower isnt' too bad.

Changed my mind about monarchy. I'm going calendar - I can get to it faster and both fishing and sailing are useful to me, anyway, and I have calendar resources, so it's the smart play.
Serdoa's power rating has been climbing and everyone has a higher rating than me, anyway. So, I need a mil pump, which I get with Death Masks...

Best to keep some kind of sentry near your opponents, keep scouting them out, and only heavily invest in military if they make a move. Some level of baseline military is essential, of course.

Last in soldiers and by a fair amount. That said, Serdoa is 1st and vultures aren't great against axes, so once we get the copper up and going, we'll make some axes. I'm going to send a WC down that road to keep an eye on him.

more and more, I think the key is expansion and cottages (to pay for expansion). And building SOME military, i guess. Probably should get a religion here or there, so i can get border pops.

I haven't been as updatey as I should be.
I have 5 cities, with a 6th to come. I am right now building wealth to speed my drive to calendar and more happy which will also speed my commerce 
I want to get 3 or 4 more cities out. I have 2 that are dedicating to military - i'm last in mil, so I need to up my game some...

Seven has had a warrior nearby exploring for a while up near Summer Knight, and it popped back up, so i went and killed it.
And found:

That's not good, for a variety of reasons, one of which is that I'll lose that WC to the spear. But, more importantly, I'm am being completely out-expanded!! The other guys are more aggressive and have more land.

Did lose the WC. Plopped down Blood Rites where it can get the silver and dye with an expansion. Unfortunately, not much food there.
Still in last. Continuing to expand. Need more workers to build more cottages as my happy cap goes up!!

Pretty funny that you intentionally deceived me by moving your scout around to my south. I then intentionally didn't send any units south since you were so polite with your scout, but did send a chariot east to meet Mackoti, and found you!
