I made a really stupid fucking mistake, or oversight, especially after I playing RBPB3. I just pushed out my second GPriest using two temples, really really slowly. I could have used the 3 slots in CC, as that is the holy city for Judaism. As it is, I'm going to push the third GP out of there now, due on t175/6, not sure which.
This is exactly what I did to bulb Theo in RBPB3. Noob.

We traded maps, and after looking at how Cyneheard planted, I don't think he has much chance of beating me. He spaced out his cities quite wide, so that he has a lot of grass land tiles he can't cottage, and very few overlapping tiles. That means he needs to keep his cities at a high population, but he won't have the happiness to do that, without having a billion quechua. That decreases his teching ability, and also his ability to hurt me via emancipation unhappiness.
I've also started to plant my next batch of new cities, and at the start of it, I'm making 160 gpt at max tax, with the second shrine down. Down to 152 gpt with 1 city planted, just 6 more cities to go...

OK, we have been really tardy in updating our threads. We'll try to get around to that today.
But as a little taster of where I am...
guys, I need more city names for when I finish ZZZ. Any more ideas?

Okay can't think of anything for B. Could just name them "AAAA" and "BBBB", etc. It's boring but keeps the theme.

I think I might be able to steal Lib from Cyneheard, if he is a little lax...been toying with the idea for the past week, but just figured out a way to beat him to it by sleight of hand.
and up to 45 cities btw.

OK, here is a trick that is effectively a way to tech 2 techs in a single turn.
Turn 1b: tech Hunting at 100% (around 1k base bpt), pop a GS.
Turn 2a: hope Cyneheard doesn't finish Philo in defense of me popping the GS, as I will still not have education, and Cyneheard will know that I am no where near finishing it via espionage.
2b: bulb Education (2700 beakers), and tech Philo in 1 turn (950+1k base beakers > 2100 adjusted beakers). Take Archery as the free tech for fun.
I'm lucky. I have almost 350 pop points, and as a GS gives 1500+3*pop beakers (IIRC, could a lurker confirm that please?), I will generate in the region of 2550 beakers...and I already have 200 beakers invested in education.
Filthy or what?
