Sunrise089 - 26 wonders

[sunrise089]

In case I don't have time to write a full report tonight, Space victory in 1970AD.

I played in one sitting, so there wasn't a lot of advanced planning. I settled in place, had 5 decent cities, and three more fill-in cities. I saw one war - Justinian invaded around 1600AD, he took one city which I immediately recaptured.

The wonders I failed to get were:

* Apostolic Palace - not even started (what tech is this?)
* Chichen Itza - lost by 1 turn
* Great Lighthouse - no early coastal city
* Hagia Sophia - lost by 1 turn
* Shwedagon Paya - not even started (what tech is this?)
* Sistine Chapel - not even started
* Taj Mahal - only had a few turns invested
* Temple of Artemis - about half-way there

Apostolic Palace - Theology; Shwedagon Paya - Aesthetics.

Tough luck with the Chicken and Hagia Sophia: I hate losing Wonders by one turn!

Looks like you did well enough after the earlygoing. I'm curious about your expansion plan. It sounds like you founded eight cities total, five of which came pretty early. If you could post a map, I'm very curious about where those were and when you founded them.

I had to laugh when reading "what tech is this?". I spent well over an hour during the course of the game trying to figure out where the new (and old!) wonders were in the BtS tech tree.

Thanks for giving this event a go!
