Some new events. Mel declared war on the egyptians and destroyed 2 of their cities. AFAIK he didn't capture one. He made peace for all the remaining techs so he's tech par now.
I made some more tech deals for gpt including one with the Greeks. After it expired it turned out my warrior ended up next to 2 greek workers
free workers! Declare war, take workers. I'm in a land grabbing phase still. More land to grab, more resources to add to the Ottoman empire. Will post a screenie tomorrow.
