Whew! Hadn't played in so long it took me a while to remember my password.
My empire:
Right now core cities are building military and fringe ones are getting improvements.
I'm also sending 2 caravels with 5 Samurais and 1 Crusader over to just annoy Paalikles. They are a couple turns from his core/2nd core cities. I have a distraction caravel with 3 units that will make a first landing, hoping to draw some troops there, and then drop off my real (ok, well 6 units) at some other city. I have no intention to kick Inca off my continent until I get railroads: then it'll be much easier.
