142, I sold horses for 14gpt and 94g to Babs. I really
hope they are dumb enough to renew their German horse
deal. Sure thing I could not buy in Germany vs Babs in
the next war, but their help will (likely) not be
essential anymore.
As expected, Chivalry makes the round, Germans know it.
City of Brest founded, I have now jumped to #6 in land
area; still leading in pop, GNP and MFG (103spt, #2 has
78spt
), gotta love the French traits.
Beam denied the proposed tech trade; instead he knows feud now.
We seem to be equal in tech and AI tech pace has slowed
down seriously. Well, no surprise here on my continent due to the war, but no wonder completion messages from Beam's world.
I cannot imagine that Beam is involved
into a (hot) war, since China seems too weak. Although if
he controls a similar chokepoint, he shouldn't be in
trouble with a somewhat small military (walls don't
always suck
).
Chinese culture is on the rise (due to libs I guess) and
I bet he aims for Chiv actually (fits to feud as recent
target). OTOH, from his POV, edu would be very
interesting, too (>put limit on TGL abuse).
Whatever, I must somehow get ~1800g for upgrades.
