Sumbitch. And CoL is top bulb, so gotta just run a trade mission.

Three turns. I'm taking back my city, and then moving my stack on Dune. I'll be nice and ignore interest, just ask for 40gpt for a peace treaty this time:
Funding secured for Construction and then a straight drive to Feudalism, I'm longbow rushing.

Is there going to be gold left for upgrading those archers? Or is it all for tech?

No gold, only tech. Also so mad about missing those two Machinery throws.
Took back my city with two Gaels lost, stuffed it with archers. He he, he hasn't maxed phalanx.

Here's the Celtic Empire as of 1 AD. It's not much at all, but it's actually only one city less than Ginger's:
Thing is, my development is horrible. Ginger can absolutely out-tech me and eat me at knights. But if he keeps on doing these wasteful pokes, I can keep on drafting him in the tech race.
I just want to peacefully sail the waves, man.

I'm genuinely a little disappointed in myself for offering white peace.
I have nothing to lose. I'm doing the slightly more economical Med->Priesthood->Monarchy->Feudalism path and then it's Vassalage longbows all over.
