Now you see them:
Now you don't!
My turn, being a massive symphony of logistics and carnage to conduct, is hardly over but I did commence with the softening up a bit more. Briggs is going to be under assault in a good three turns I believe; time for my reinforcement train to arrive.
All these troops running around have me bumping down to 80% break even.  That still gets me marines/battleships/tanks in three turns though!

And I am running neck-and-neck with Ichabod/2metraninja for lowest land amount in the game; clearly it is my vast coasts that are boosting this all. Couple with it my trade routes boosts from the feitorias, and the bank profusion from Fin...it's a big heavy part of the economy I'm running here. But of course this is where I've been aiming for two hundred turns.
I actually was speaking with Brick about this a while back. It is an interesting "what if" to consider if I'd kept my first roll here:

Your first generated Leader/Civ combination is:
Cyrus of Egypt
Please state in bold in your thread whether you want to keep or reroll this combination. If you do not keep it, you can have up to 2 more combinations generated for you. My game would have been completely and utterly different. Given the map pop still on turn 2 I probably would have War Chariot rushed the Vikings from the fog, and then played a land-heavy game with three civs' land (because Nakor and knights...) Kind of like a northern hemisphere Mackoti, actually. Who knows, of course. The point is I'd have had viable game plans with a different civ and traits, but those plans, and my empire/economy setup, would be very different.
That would be a sad world because I wouldn't have been Canada, then, though.

Hopefully, the upshot is that I can carry out this war and make gains without falling behind on the tech front. I've got a monopoly on Divine Right so Versailles could make German land pretty much pure profit quickly. My fourth place might become a much much closer fourth place!
Not sure if I could launch a spaceship before Plako or Cyneheard/Scooter, or before Mackoti goes Legendary, however.

I find Fort Erie building Culture pretty amusing. Mostly something we used to call the Canadian Ballet... I'll leave what that is to the readers' imagination. 
I've got some dirt on my shoulder, can you brush it off for me?

Are we looking at his transport? Or using the name Nate Burleson?
