And also know that we are in a turnsplit with superdeath with him having the first half of each turné.

Do you want to give me any more specific instructions in the light of this picture? I missed that the archer would complete this turn, so its all fine, I'll follow your instructions. ![[Image: Chumchu.JPG]](https://dl.dropbox.com/s/2wwtvc0kt6q4b3i/Chumchu.JPG)

SD attacked again against your new archer getting one withdrawal and a loss. The archer gets 99% vs his last chariot now if you'd like me to kill it before Donovan plays? No other chariots in sight.

He ran away, so I chased with an archer and 4 workers on the plains hill deer. Wheel finishes this turn so you can build some roads to try to retake your city or you can camp the deer. Will you be back for the next turn?

We have peace with superdeath. The reason I accepted is that I cant push his war chariots with archers and that I want to send out scouts to locate alternative sources of copper. I'm now teching animal husbandry to see if I can get horses to counter his war chariots with my own chariots somewhat. It is a fools hope but I think it is the only play that give a smidgeon of a chance to survive rather than just prolong his conquest by buillding archers until end of game.

A small update.
Surprisingly, SD seems peaceful. I would not have backed down form his position. We will take advantage of it to grow onto defensible cities with archers on hills. Our burgeoning empire is back at 2 cities and going for a third. For our research we have just reached pottery and are going for horseback riding next as it will allow us to trade ok vs. war chariots. The source of copper that SD took was our only close one, we will need that city back if we are to defend our empire. I'm scouting to see if SD has another neighbor other than me. That might be what holding him back and it would be valuable information for us to know if his back is free or not. ![[Image: 195.JPG?]](https://dl.dropbox.com/s/fojrp7rocmivglz/195.JPG?) I will be needing a sub as I have not yet been able to repair my laptop and I'm going away for two weeks vacation from next monday. The instructions are to try to get to 5 cities as soon as we have defenders for them. Horseback riding and then code of laws is the tech plan. Any sub is free to show initiative as I think we have near-zero chances of getting anywhere in this game.

Small update again. We have found commodore to superdeaths west which is good news for us. There is jungle in between them so no immediate conflict but hopefully down the road when that land is fertile.
I have changed tech to sailing as gavagai proposed open borders. It takes 7 turns but the commerce will pay for itself quickly. We have cheap lighthouses as well for some decent fishing cities. I have numbered the proposed cities. The next settler is to go to #1, the wheat gold city where our two archers are headed. 2 archers (1 with guerilla) on a hill should be expensive for SD to dislodge before catapults. NUmber 2 is to establish our border with Gavagai. I do not want to be greedy here as I can not defend much vs. legions without bronze. Goal is to plant a city on a hill on the isthmus and fill it with promoted archers. I hope to be low on Gavs list of priorities as he does not want to give SD the lion part of our "empire".
