[spoilers] OT4E is gonna try something special

[OT4E]

So T68 report.

Stardoor indeed whipped one madrassa, another whip though went somewhere else, may be settler or worker. His land is not well improved as bad as mine I think. It is good for me because he will hardly go into desperate war without decent infrastructure.

I am close in completion of my current goal Metal Casting and ready to start thinking of the next one.

I need many things:
- Sailing for whales
- Archery for safety
- Maths for hammams
- Monotheism for religion (pretty late though)
- Priesthood for Oracle which is surprisingly not gone yet.

I am already chasing two Rabbits, may be it is time to try catching all three?

[OT4E]

I have no good city to build Colossus. Stonehenge city could do, but I have cleared all the forests around. The second thing I do not like building it there is GPP generating. I want to get GE first and therefore I will postpone Pyramids by little to insert forge and put engineer. Getting Machinery before turn 100 suits me so good.

So I think I will try it in New Shanghai. Though I have some time to think before I get forges.

[OT4E]

I had wrong estimations on how the war between dcodea and Nyles was going. I knew that dcodea lost a city or 2 but those were new cities and I refered it to unlucky placement and common 1 warrior per city defend which often turns in settler loss. But this time Nyles captured dcodea's 2nd city which is located in my direction. None of Nyles unit could take it due to bad attention. Everything speaks for that dcodea is surviving his last turns being locked in 1 city without resourse.

Do I need to worry about jaguars?

[OT4E]

Despite of that jaguar from the north can hurt me, I think I dont need to worry about them. Aztecs have bad starting techs and I dont believe Nyles put his bet on rushing towards Iron working. More likely everyone on the map has furs and ivory close and Nyles was lucky to open horses in the right place like me.

Also it doesnt look that top power has Iron working. And finally it will be weird if Nyles sends his troops in some risky campaign without even taking dcodea cap. Probably he is happy with what he has and is preparing to long siege.

Met pindicator this turn, hopefully he wont take a shot on my scout. I want to find more civs and circumnavigation of course.

[OT4E]

Things are getting more interesting DTG (Map/Inca) declared war to gsoreland (Ghengis/Zulu) and razed city. It was a newly planted one, but anyway it was brave movement to challenge aggressive Zulu, who got early conquest. Gsorel replied with 5 whips.

For me it is always nice to see how your key opponents slaughter each other. The game is pretty aggressive so far, 1 nation eliminated and 2 are down to one city by T75.

[OT4E]

I checked recent gsorel activity in civstat and found out that he had planted 6 cities during last 15 turns. I have only 8 cities total so I believe he had simply over expanded.

[OT4E]

Long and boring turn...



In chop we trust!

Oracle still around by T75? Wow... what tech are you gonna grab?

[OT4E]

Oracle still around by T75? Wow... what tech are you gonna grab?

I am also shocked. None of wonders has gone yet except SH.

What to take? Hm... I need to see advisors choice...

[OT4E]

Finally after long waiting ...
