Hey Ruff,

So what is your thinking on picking Sitting Bull of Spain? There is a little synergy with Citadel and Protective and lots of siege...

There was your vote for Raging Barbs, in response to which everybody else was going to ban the Great Wall, at which point you hastily changed your vote to normal barbs in order to keep the Wall available. wink

dang it - knew I should have chewed up the first 3 or 4 posts for later use.

This will be my summary and Index post. Obviously, I will be running a spy economy, grabbing the Great Wall and seeing how far I can push the EP economy to stay up with the others as well as dominate them militarily (I hope).

The big twists in this game are that SPYING is on [dance] and you can only have in-game contact. Much harder to form strong relationships, organize pacts, try to get others to collude against a 3rd party, etc.

Most people playing Louis are heading towards a cultural victory. Good early wondering ability and free early border pops (saves hammers for wonders). In a MP game ... not so sure. The civ does lend itself to an early religion (and Priest for the Shrine) so I would expect that adhoc may be looking to run a Shrine economy. With the Madrassa, he doesn't even need the Priest wonders.

A good neighbour for me to have. I don't have a lot of experience with Mr Adhoc so we'll just have to see how that goes.
