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.
