Mardoc finished oracle as expected and THH grew back his cap to 4.

Simmed a bit further and I think we really need to claim the silver next. The difference is pretty huge. Time to whip 2 WCs...

Yoss I might not be available for the afternoon turn. I emailed THH to cc you the save as well.

Instructions for next turn
Capital starts settler working corn, sheep, both mines
No changes to Memphis and Helio
Alexandria takes farmed FP.
Don't whip granary in Elephantine
Worker on horse will 1 chop cancel forest directly to south.

EDIT: move the galley back ASAP so we can settler silver city next.

Hmm cannot access imgur from McDonald's wifi so full pictures will have to wait.
Mardoc's score increased by 7? I have he lost 1 pop and gained 18 points in techs. So likely finished 1 ancient tech and grabbed a classical tech. I have them as writing and monarchy.
THH lost 1 pop (likely 2 slave + 1 growth)
Miguelito grew 2 pop and got a classical tech???

Ok nevermind, it is likely that Miguelito gained 3 pop and it rounded to 34, not 33.
EDIT: After revised C&D. I corrected Mardoc's techs to Sailing and MC, which makes more sense.

I forgot to offer OB, but should we? Everything I read says we should but could use some guidance Yoss. Thanks,

Pros:
Trade income from eventual routes grows the longer we have OB (I think, but I might be misremembering how the mechanics work for this)
Signals good-will towards THH
Gives us a slight indication of how THH is feeling about us, maybe
Eventual opportunity to scout THH lands

Cons:
THH can start scouting us immediately
THH has a head-start on defogging a trade route towards us (although apparently there are no sea routes)


So, I lean slightly towards offering OB, but it probably isn't a big deal either way.

Also, THH can request OB whether or not he has Writing, since we have it (I think you indicated in chat that he probably doesn't have writing since he didn't offer OB)

Finally, we should probably ferry our scout over to the mainland, now that the inland sea has dead-ended.

I agree about the importance of our Silver city as the next settlement. Were you planning on settling "A" or "x?"?

If A, then do we need a road from the silver down to Elephantine in order to connect it to our empire? I don't think it would automatically connect with a mine alone, if we settle A. We also need to get a quick border pop with either city. Sorry if you've already addressed all this and I just wasn't paying close enough attention :/

Final post spam (so it at least looks like I'm participating :P)

I'll try to take a look at the C&D, but I have family over this weekend and a busy week ahead of me, so no promises on how soon I can get that done.
