T40: WLP builds Stonehenge, and superdeath settled a city.
Good for EXP/PRO Mali William. The main obstacle to his REXing was culture generation, and he's fixed that.
Which means that superdeath should have founded Buddhism, but then he should have delayed it by 1T to get it into the new city? (Edit: superdeath is CRE Egypt, so he doesn't need the culture but probably wants a shrine/priest economy)

Potential settling race, so I'll adhere to turnsplit order. JR4 whipped an Axe last turn, so this could get into worst-case scenario, where he gets to settle X.

Still maintaining turnsplit. I've slowed down development to rush out the Impi.
Forest grew on highlighted tile.
Note to self: set research to 0%

Turnsplit is still on. If possible I'm playing last of all so not to leak out info about who I neighbour.

JR4 had moved his warrior onto the same tile as mine. I moved my Impi and Settler to that point. Also chopped into an axe at city #2, will be out in 2t.
This border city with JR4 has been really costly to establish in terms of worker turns and early hammers into Impi plus Axe, but I'm convinced it's worth it.

T44 and T45 full report to come.
Meanwhile, I need advice on the turnsplit. I was second up to T44, when I realised there was no settling race or imminent axe that I was paranoid about, so I played T44 and then immediately T45.
And during T45, I decide to push my impi further, and it's now 2 moves away from his capital. So turnsplit should be in play, but what order?
Edit: I shouldn't be able to take his capital, since he can definitely emergency whip an axe.

Nohamba is just a fantastic city. 4 food resources, plus marble, unboatable.
I didn't think about the ramification of how close it is to JR4. Pondering whether to settle horses next and rush his capital.
Argh ,I don't have a trade connection. Really messed up the micro there. That's just a stupid mistake.

T43:
JR4 moved his warrior under my warrior, so I move onto the same tile Settler and Impi.
T44:
I settle, and his warrior teleports across the sea.
T45:
I push forward with impi, and discover a second warrior:
We resolve the turnsplit issue via pm, JR4 is to take first half.

JR4 has played, and I am greeted with this:
His capital is 4SE, and he has blocked the approach with that warrior. That barb warrior is a bit of ahindrance.
I decide to wait a little, and move the impi SE.
T47:
JR4 shadows my impi with a warrior. A little annoying. I move my impi NW and see a settler and a worker:
I kept the impi in place, and declared war.

Hinduism is founded, by either wetbandit or yuris.
