after a few turns ...

things are going slowly; this is the main flaw of playing with 7 other guys. the good side is that we already began discussion (about tech essentially).

Things are going slow for this one. I've build my third cities and i'm still exploring the map. No special event to mention, unless for a barbarian which has killed a fortified vet warrior ... [aargh]

For a strange reason i've not build a mine over the cattle near Bergen, i've clean a forest over spice, but miscalculate the time for the bonus, and irrigated the area just after. This way i've been able to empty my capital of his population, thx to a settler production;

After that, i choose to build a fortified town in the hills, in case of a sudden invasion from (one of) my potent neighbor(s), Iroquois, perhaps ?

Now everything is changing. I'm still not an optimizor player, but with a harbor coming to Bergen and a new mine on the cattle spot of Copenhagen, future seems a bit more positive. Our fleet shall soon evolves to galley ships, and a settler is to be send not far away, to catch some ivory (East).

Iron working shall be discovered in a few turns, and another settler could be send in a (jungle) gems area, just North-W. I shall also send some spearment to explore 2 goody huts, on the west islands ...

I've build a good road network. Always useful, and good for treasury.

I'm more or less allied with Carthago (North), which is at war with Inca.
