74 (1150BC) - My Curragh made it! No contacts yet, I hope this island has someone on it!
76 (1100BC) - The second Curragh died, but my first spots the Arab border! I'm not going to risk it until I map the island I am on.

77 (1075BC) - The last Curragh has made it to the island.
81 (975BC) - At last I meet the Arabs. I pay them 175 for The Wheel. Yay! I have a horse, it will be connected in 2 turns.

Pay the Mongols 252 gold for Writing.
94 (670BC) - Research Literature.
Sell Lit to the Iroquois for Philosophy and Code of Laws.

Sell Lit and 21 gold to Arabia for Iron Working and Maths.

100 (550BC) - The Vikings complete the Statue of Zeus. This is excellent news as in about 10 turns I am going to declare war and take it for myself.
107 (410BC) - My sole Curragh finds the English, I am only missing contact with the Japanese now.
108 (390BC) - Research Republic and switch. I got 6 turns, not bad for C3C.
From Arabia I get Construction, Map Making, Polytheism and Currency for Republic. I get Mono as my gree tech.
I give the Iroquois Republic and Monotheism for Feudalism and 88 gold.
Finally I give Republic to the Vikings for Monarchy and 30 gold. This is primarily so they change to Republic, where they can't pop rush units to attack me.
113 (290BC) - Come out of anarchy to Republic.
Now I declare war on the Vikings at start my assault. I trigger my GA by attacking a warrior with an Enkidu. Next I take 3 border cities for only 2 horse losses, although killing lone warriors and archers proves to be too much for my Enkidus and I lose several evenly matched battle in a row...
