DarkSavant gave us OB. He has 11 cities. We have 20, so he's doing better than us with the OB
What do you think about giving GKC OB? btw - he got a great event - Crossbows get combat 1, so he's got awesome crossbows.

Hmm, if we want to go back and deal with DS island city close to Colossus, it would be good to have better relations with GKC and maybe a sentry unit checking out if he's planning to attack. And scouting him and maybe also past him could also be useful.

I think this is the last time I play 2 pitbosses at the same time. My reporting for PB47 was good and now my reporting for both of these is terrible
GKC asked for open borders - I gave it.
He has 14 cities.
DS has 11.
We just settled our 21st and I can see 3 more spots with food, not to mention a few crappy ones.
We have 2 sources of iron, one of which is already mined.
Switched to Civil Service (8 turns). We get a GP for a GA in 7 turns.
We probably want to think about what civics we want to be in, long term.
Bureau
Hereditary Rule
Slavery?
I think we can kick off a GA and switch to Bureau and slavery, to whip out infra. FInsish off monarchy and, for a 2nd switch, go into Hereditary Rule and either stay in slavery or switch to Caste.

Why not caste during GA? That way we could benefit from +100% GPP and after the GA switch to slavery. Get some big city near full food bar and then starve it with specialists.
Our city count compared to our neighbours seems really good, if the others are near their expansion limits we have much more output potential.
Does the long island still continue north?

It seems to go west - there's a barb there, so the scout got stuck. I have a settler/archer pair down and two more units heading there.
and yes - I think you are right. Whipping during a GA is someone counterproductive anyway.

The island goes north. I've got a galley with a scout heading up the east side.

I dunno if you saw the PBSpy info, but it was interesting:
Player Cities
OH 27
Krill 23
Rusten 22
pindicator 22
AT 21
Commodore 18
Mouseferatu 17
Superdeath 17
Gavagai 15
DS 14
Elkad 14
Borsche 13
Borsche 12
2metraninja 11
TBW 11
OH was clearly going to be in the lead, being imp/inca. Krill being #2 is interesting, cause his traits do not scream expansion. pindicator and Rusten are both expansive.
I dunno how useful the information actually is, mind you, but it is interesting. Mostly, this helps people like us who have not been paying attention to PBSpy.

Double the Borsche?

Interesting, our city count seems at least somewhat competitive and we have still room for some more. Although our unit number is relatively low.
Edit: I took a look at the game and put some marks. Also one city asked for production, I put in work boat, since the neighbouring city needed one.

I think the 2nd borsche is b - I used excel for that and it sometimes completes typing.
Our unit count is low. Do you think we should up it? I think we are hard to attack, cause it's all across water and galleys sucks for this.
