Turn 166
Peace in our time! Now for the race to resettle the city - we'll get a settler there by t168.
REM could have four Galleons on their way in the next few turns.
His power isn't high though so I think they're probably defensive.
We resettled Gonzo 2 this turn and will resettle Gonzo 3 on t168 (anyone got a better muppet name for the city?)
Completed: RB Demogame - Gillette, PBEM46, Pitboss 13, Pitboss 18, Pitboss 30, Pitboss 31, Pitboss 38, Pitboss 42, Pitboss 46, Pitboss 52 (Pindicator's game), Pitboss 57

What happened to 'death to Mack'? And 'death to OT4E'?

 I think Mack is about to do death to OT4E for us...
Turn 167
Civic calculations:
- Pacifism will save 20gpt vs Paganism but cost 99gpt in unit costs.
- OR costs 20gpt more but we're making buildings in ten cities currently
- Vassalage costs 24gpt more than Nationhood, but saves 42gpt on unit costs (+2 XP means 9XP units from TSC)
- Bureau costs 32gpt more, but makes 43 extra base commerce (which is 80 extra beakers that approx equal 80 commerce given all the cheap markets I've built) and 16 extra hammers in the capital
- Nationhood boosts our espionage by 11
So
- Caste/Pacifism/Vassalage costs 61gpt more than our current setup
- Caste/OR/Bureau effectively saves 28gpt
- Caste/Pacifism/Bureau costs 31gpt more
We're due to settle two cities and grow four pop next turn which should make Vassalage a better deal and Bureau a worse deal, but we're teching for the next five turns and not building many units so I think Bureau wins. The other question is about GPPoints - is Pacifism really necessary? Losing Gonzo changes the maths slightly, but I still want to pop four or five GPs so I like Pacifism, if only for the next five turns.
The cities we're going for the GPs in are TSC, Fozzie, Waldorf and Big Bird with a couple of others building up their GPP counter to pop in a future golden age. I'll try to use these pics to figure out the micro before next turn.
Unless OT4E settles on Sugar this turn we have the choice of locations next turn - I'm tempted to pull back though and settle on our chariot rather than the original (highlighted) hill, just to give us a less tense border. Also note the chat with TBS about Wales' upcoming fixtures in Euro 2016 (only Hungary/Belgium then Poland/Portugal before the final).
We got city visibility back on Mack. What's he up to here? Shouldn't these be heading towards OT4E? Perhaps 2mn is the next target?

I should start demanding royalties for use of death to X. 
REM's power is not high enough? What crazy game is this?
Nice canal from mackoti there. I sincerely approve.

Those REM galleons are not friendly looking.

REM has some Knights and Maces - not enough to stage a naval invasion but enough to fight ours off  . I lost his Galleons which means they're heading south toward Mack or 2metra. I reckon he's after early warning about the Viking Death Fleet.
