I met all the civs including mel. He doesn't have alpha but appears to have IW. He won't go for a straight swap but wants more. So no go. Lets see what our future holds the next few turns

it's turn 50 btw. I'll post the diplo in the open thread.

In turn 51 I discovered not everyone had Horseback Riding yet. Traded it with ??(I'll look that up later) and used HR & contact with carthaginians to get IW from Spain. I have HR and Alphabet which Mel doesn't. He could have Mysticism but my guess is he doesn't so I'm 2 techs away. Also my 2nd city is 2 cow city and it will finish a granry in 2 turns. I will have 2 settler facs then. I've spotted 3 horses (1 already connected), 1 iron, lots of dyes and some furs nearby, so I'm going landgrab first.

I popped/built 8 warriors of which 6 are scouting. I'm hoping to pop some more huts and disperse some camps. For now my mil. adv. says I'm average compared to the rest so I'll be safe.

Some new events. Mel declared war on the egyptians and destroyed 2 of their cities. AFAIK he didn't capture one. He made peace for all the remaining techs so he's tech par now.

I made some more tech deals for gpt including one with the Greeks. After it expired it turned out my warrior ended up next to 2 greek workers [:0] free workers! Declare war, take workers. I'm in a land grabbing phase still. More land to grab, more resources to add to the Ottoman empire. Will post a screenie tomorrow.

The romans have some nice lands to expand to.

Thought about attacking one of those worker, but the WC in paris would kill my warrior after that for sure. went to the mountain first to spy around a bit. If Mel stacks those workers however I'm gonna move in, capture and disband them.

500 years have passed since my last post and some remarkable things happened.

Lotsa barbs running around which delayed my expansion. I've been settler dancing quite a lot. Looks like restless barbs, so I switched to escorted settlers instead of the lonely ones. All things worked out eventually since I grew from 5 to 9 cities in the last 3 turns. Got my 10th one from France (more later) and plan on founding no. 11 in 2 turns. I'll have twice the amount of cities of Mel then.

Greece dragged the French in our war. Because I was building only settlers and no military Alex was a little cocky and refused peace. After I took out 2 archers, a warrior, build a few spears to accompany my settlers and doubled in cities his attitude changed. He's turned into a peace lover now. Instead of demanding a city for peace he's now willing to pay for peace. Not yet Alex, more military is coming and a lousy 20 gold isn't going to repair that high 'n mighty attitude I had to put up with. [fdevil]

In the meanwhile France decided things got a little dicy for them. They lost a vet warrior on a reg one I fortified on a mountain and it seems Mel has declared war on them again. I'm not sure of this (no embassy) but I see 2 WC next to Paris. Joan offers me her last city and WM for peace. I'll take that! I'm now the proud owner of Rheims. Virtually useless for me, to far away over land to defend quickly but not to far away from my cap because only a sea strait is seperating me and Mel. My guess is Mel was counting on Rheims for his expansion because he still only has 5 cities. Dunno what I'll do with Rheims. Disband or give to mighty civ nearby... More to come.
