writing is fine, just hold of on the open border demand from Cathy. I agree also with going for Burger King and another warrior. Hopefully, with BurgerKing, we can eliminate most of the barb spawn locations on our corner, and can freely settle Westside as well as the FP cities.

Perhaps we should designate which forests we chop and which we don't.

1990BC - All looks fine

IT - Barb Warrior attacks warrior on forest. 2 > 1.7 . 1 xp.

1960BC - Warrior starts healing 2 turns. Worker start 2nd cottage near the cap

1930BC - [sleep]

1900BC - [sleep]

1870BC - Stonehenge build in a far away land

1840BC - [sleep]

1810BC - Cathy offers Open Borders. Accepted as I think it is best to have some sort of relationship initially.

1780BC - Warrior is bit scouting N to keep it free of barbs.

1750BC - Settler completes in Thebes, moves to Burger King. Thebes starts Warrior in 3 and will grow in 5.

1720BC - Cottage completed, worker moves N to work Burger King. Worker W has completed the cow and starts a road towards Thebes.

1690BC - Burger King found, starts worker. Warrior scouts N and E to prevent barbs.

I take that to mean she beat us to Writing? Also, with her having open borders with us, we need to take a hard look at the map and see were we must settle next, before she grabs our spot.

We can cancel the open border in 10 turns again, right? I'm not really happy with it tbh, though I get beam's train of thought.

gram, she had Writing well before us. This reduces the chances on an Oracle run imo.

Maybe I had better not agreed Open Borders. It can be cancelled in 6 turns.

A bit risky. I think there is every chance she could try and sneek in a city, probably near sweet spot. I think we3 should cancl this soon. It would be nice to get a warior passed the choke point first though, to meet other civs.

Indeed, send the Memphis(?) warrior into Russia and cancel after 6 turns. This will provide a lot of good info!

The scoregraph (for what it is worth):

We are a bit low in score but for example higher than Rat Pack in this year who passed another team who had a much higher score in this year. Team one lost 7 points, not sure what can cause this. Loss of a tile, unit or even a city?

The big thing is not so much info as contact with other civs helps our tech progress.

Is barbu too busy this week? If so, Shabbaman is up.
