Notes for the next player:
- All Greece is willing to give for peace (and it has been that way the entire war) is Thessalonica (which is a city that is alone on an island). Maybe if you move units into their territory next turn (or the turn after) they will give more.
- Starve all Greek cities to size 1. Greece is the cultural leader this game, so flip risk is present.
- I did not move the 4 cavalries near Boston. They will be needed in that area because we are about to be declared upon by Japan and they will attempt to land units somewhere around there…
- I also did not MM the cities, and the tax/lux/sci sliders on turn 10.
