Overview screen shots, I'll make a world map tonight or tomorrow on how drunk I get (friends from Germany over until next Wednesday and it turns out the brought me a crate of dark beer. It ain't gonna last long).

The capital...note, it can grow to size 7 in 7 turns, just in time for the mine on the grass hill to drop into a settler. But it ends up with a half completed warrior that way...if I drop the overflow into a settler this turn, I end up wasting time at size 6 dropping in forest chops to the settler...need to figure this out asap, as I already ended turn.

I figure the settler is the better choice. I would rather waste a worker turn or two roading towards a potential city site than waste 8 or so hammers in a warrior build I never plan on finishing. The settler is the first build to be completed after hitting size 7.

I will thus mine the grass hill next turn with the worker, pausing it at 1 turn to go and road until the mine is needed at size 7. The plains hill will be mined the turn after, also speeding up the settler.

And on to T43. As it's Easter and Spring break, I didn't expect to see the turn this evening, but I'll take it all the same.

Looks like I need to get a move on and start settling hat jungle area. I think rego and Pin settled the third city a turn or so ago, but no one else has a size 4 capital. I'm probably not that screwed economically, after all...

...which you can see here in F9.

Pile of crap. That's what this city is, but I don't really have a choice about it. OTOH, I really do need a theme (and yeah, I thought about the RB naming schemes idea. Consider it vetoed...)

Naming theme: Things to whine about.

Steel Trade
Tech Cartel
No Oil
Unbalanced Map
Unslaved Oracle
Stolen Taj

OMFG yes.

But I need ORDER! And what could the capital be named?

Alphabetically might be tricky. Chronologically?
