Ian Wright managed to move only 1SW due to this pigging Forest!
Pardew started the Deer Camp.
I've queued up Animal Husbandry after Archery (which finished at end of turn) as i have 2 pre-requisites to make it quicker.
Had to share this .. awesome Demos:

Just having a moan as they slow down movement!
Certainly don't want more Jungle as it doesn't add anything; you don't get anything for chopping them down!

Note: had to wait over 36 hours for the turn!! We need a tracker!!!
Turn 9 - 3460BC
Ian Wright managed to sidestep the Forest, and squeeze past a mountain,to move 1S, 2W. OOh ... hello Adriener!!! He's now on 45 points .. did he just finish Archery?!?
Switched to a Bowman, as planned. Still working the as yet un-Camped Deer (4/0/1) - Croydon grows in 4 turns and the Bowman will take 8 turns to build. Could've worked the un-Farmed Corn (2/1/1 - Growth in 7, Build in 6), an un-Mined Plains Hill (0/2/1 - Stagnant, Build in 4) or even one of the Dyes (1/1/2 - Growth in 14, Build in 6). Once at Size 2 will work the Plains Hill as this will knock 2 turns off the Build time.

Bloody hell!! Another piggin' Forest has popped up in Croydon's BFC!! Will have to do Mining -> BW next. Chop/Whip out Workers/Settlers!

Another 36 hour wait for the turn - this time due to an error by El Grillo!!
Turn 11 - 3340BC
Ian Wright moved 2SE
Umm .. we're quite close
Thinking evil thoughts
Pardew finally finished that Deer Camp, so Croydon grows at end of turn!! This'll speed up the Bowman no end!!!!!
Erm. actually, it'll still cuts only 2 turns off the build using the Plains Hill
Oh, forgot to add, in RL Palace news - we finally won a game!! The Eagles snapped up the Canaries, let's hope we can chew up the Toffees on Wednesday, hopefully a pre-run of the FA Cup Final!!!

Ian Wright moved 2SE ... oooh, sparklies!!! GEMS!!!!
Pardew moves towards the Corn to Farm it.
Yes!! Working the Plains Hill means the 1st Bowman will take 3 more turns, Croydon grows to size 3 in 4 turns. AH also due in 3 more turns. Will run the numbers and see if I can't get all 3 to align

Hmm, at end of turn, I think I can sync Growth, Bowman & AH next turn; that'll shock 'em with the points spike!

Nope, 1 Food short of syncing the completion, oh well.
Barring a Skirmisher rush, the Bowman will hold out; his bonus vs meleé troops assures this.
