radio towers go up this turn (240). ("238 - research Radio." - sky, are you wearing your glasses?
) They didn't go up yet because I didnt need them yet, they do cost a slave each!
Workers aren't bait, my shitty cities are still producing workers every ten turns which can be used to top up cities when I draft from them. I also have a few settlers (just off the screen in F3) in case I want to aggressively settle upto his borders to launch an attack. Of course I will likely be reacting to anarres attack but I like to keep my options open.
