He even has the elephants to go with it, too bad they are banned.

tongue I had to start building some units again. This time WK did better in the lottery. He even managed to save both of his spears. This probably delays things some 4-5T frown. I should have brought more units.

Feudalism was ready so I converted to Vassalage. at least my units have better promos.

After thinking about it I'll probably had to leave WK alone for a while possibly somethin like 10-15T and rebuild my troops. Especially losing all cats was very harmful so I need to build some of them. It might even give us yet another GG, if he manages to churn out sufficient amount of Archers wink.

I'm depressed so no screenshots today. War weariness is really an issue after losing gems from LP. I used whip to regain my strenght and go for the earliest possible kill.

That is pretty accurate. 3 Priests are working.

btw. LP built Statue of Zeus to his border city near Luddite. I'm surprised he was able to slow buildi it there without no one else trying. This makes Luddite's settlement even worse there. He won't get 1st ring easily.

Slow build is relative if you are IND with Ivory... Its potentially poor positioning though. I mean, you put a wonder that relies on a long grindy war in a border city that has the potential to be taken out in the first few turns.

I think it says more about who he is concerned with fighting though. That is, us and rego and not luddite.

I should be able to get rid of WK in 3T. Rego is moving at least 1 catapult towards his border cities in the NE.

I probably should have prioritized Calendar over Literature few turns ago. No sense to chance it anymore.
