[SPOILERS] ipecac wants a win

T70 opponent analysis:

Those I've met:

AGG/PRO JR4 started slow, especially since he settled his whales city first, which is one reason why I got to the chokepoint first. But an extra happy and his PRO granaries are kicking in and he's even with me in city count. I'll have to keep watching my back if he gets to CKNs, which makes me want to take him out with HA.

PRO/CHA Dark Savant is somewhat slower with 5 cities. Somehow he has near the top without a religion or a wonder, which is a bit strange. Did he build Moai already?

AGG/EXP Charriu is at four cities, probably because of warring with WLP and/or wetbandit. Tough.

AGG/CHA wetbandit is at four cities. A little slow too, all this lush food and CHA should allow more whipping.

To be located:

CRE/CHA superdeath is at six cities. It's a little surprising the psychonewbie hasn't hit anyone yet with war chariots, but I suppose that it'll come.

SPI/PRO yuris is at 5 cities.

EXP/PRO WilliamLP: 6 cities.

-----

I think it's safe to say that WLP has unrusted, and so I'll have to move him up the tier list, above me.

wetbandit>WLP>ipecac>yuris>JR4>Dark Savant>Charriu>superdeath

AGG/IMP ipecac: My start is objectively slow, mostly because my first 3 settles didn't share any food whatsoever, since they were aimed at seizing the chokepoints. But with IMP I'm still tied for top in city count at 6, so things are still fine.

Of my two neighbours, Dark Savant is softer on military and is the natural target. But once JR4 gets CKNs I have to keep looking over my shoulder, so I think I'll have to take him out, razing the capital at minimum.

Teching Archery now instead of Writing. I need archers and will probably go HA anyway.

Quote:Now is T68. Plan is to be finalised but I should get 4 more cities for a total of 10 by T80. Then I aim to get 15-16 by T100 (this map is crazy lush).

Scratch this. I'm thinking 10 cities by T80, then 2 that look offshore followed by hitting JR4 asap with HA and other 2 movers.

The city is ours, but my Impi is mangled. I could lose the capital pigs too.

Did your impi turn Heroic or is it cowering in a hole, covered, shamefaced, by its comrade?

-wetbandit made peace with Charriu (who was also previously at war with WLP), and is now at war with WLP. Looks like they're having exciting times.

-JR4 lands the GLH. Not a wonder I placed much importance on, but I'll make sure to capture it.

   

At Ondini, my seconded impi was a little damaged by one warrior, and will have to hold off another while the 9xp one heals.

Another barb warrior trespasses on my pigs, and is taken out at 80% odds:

Is OT4E dedlurking Dark Savant?

Is Dark Savant trying to take second half of the timer?

I think OT4E is dedlurking. No idea about your second question.

I have to expect a chariot rush then.
