Absolutely rush the FP if you have a good spot for it - it'll make your GA all the more effective.

That's a difficult choice!
Your palace is fairly centrally located, building the FP now will not give you massive gains, although you could get a reasonable gain. This may sound weird, but I would say build it in Birka or Narjan, or maybe even Heidelburg. They are essentially as far away as possible, you will get better corruption than if they were 1 city closer, Aydin or Sinop for example. I'm not sure of your agreement, but you may want to consider some agressive settling on the borders. You can build a city 2 tiles from his, then disband a unit and rush a library. If you do this on 2 or 3 sides at once you can get more than 10 tiles of his. Your relative total cultures is also fairly important if flips are to have any likelyhood of happening. Maybe this would only be useful if you have decent culture and cash to spend, so it's unlikely to be of great use...

Thanks for your input!
I think I will make the FP in Konya (I have taken colonge) because its a better city than Heidelburg and it would do more for the surrounding cities. As for your aggressive settling idea, we only have an agreement for 1000AD peace I never really liked making settlers while in a GA though. |

Here is what aggie said to me saying: wtf is with that city on my borders?
aggie: IIRC you do the same near me! I have all the right to settle in neutral terrain. |

If you haven't done so already, you may want to rush a library in Medina - I guess he has rushed a temple in Zamua?

We can see that Medina is 1 turn away from a Library, that's good thinking WF !
