We should scout out Persia more, but it looks like they are the weaker from a troop standpoint. Could pick them off then use their resources to take on Hunnia afterwards.

I'd go after whoever the power graph says is lower.

You need to make said elf leather into the most amazing work of art.  Embed it with every kind of gem you have, stud it with metals, and sew images into it.  Erect a shrine outside your fort with that in the center.  Let the elves know that you view their very skin as naught more but a medium for your dwarves to work on.

Hunnia now, Persia later. They think they're safe with their smug Atlatlists sitting in a city. Pff. Nobody is safe from the Jivaro. Not even the Jivaro themselves.

I don't like this plan... But whoever is closer, I suppose.

Also, if you see any barbarian cities. Kill them. Those things turn into civilizations if you leave them alone for long enough.

If we are to make war, we should make it upon the Persians. Their land is lush and fertile, and connected to us by the oceans so our great canoes can haul barter goods. There is little between us, and nothing besides them, so we may take what they have and then only have one side to focus on. If we make war upon the Hun, we have to watch a lot more border in the end. The Huns also have many men with Atlatls, and while our bamboo is strong it will take many many men in bamboo to kill their men.

On the peaceful side of things, I say we should find a group to live at the great fields of cotton. This will get us many warm garments for the Jivaro people, and maybe even hats. But north holds nothing for us. Beyond the mountains and into the dry lands the men speak with ashes in their mouths and dance in prayer to gods of death. The Aztec are hollow men and spiritless, and should be driven from our lands should they approach.

Our great hunters, I feel, should seek to subdue the elephant. We should settle families of Elephants in our lands (And one day build a national elephant breeder!) so that we may feast upon them. (Also Elephant workers are only a tiny bit more expensive and work WAY faster than normal workers + gives us strong siege units all the way into late Renaissance.)

Lastly, I speak to the fellow elders of religious matters: We should take up the traditions of Druidism and enjoy the health and bounty of food it will provide. Until the spirits can be coaxed forth (Read: We found voodoo!) we should tend to their vessels.

Stop everything and subdue a sabretooth tiger. Then get back to the great war against the Persians, led by your feline death avatar.

Alright, I'll have an update up later tonight. Probably won't be up until I've had dinner, though.

First off, a slight diversion:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

We don't have any elephants, but we do have camels.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

More scouting around Carthage.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Apparently, we're fairly powerful, but so are all our neighbours.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Although we're building up our military, we can still try to expand our empire peacefully.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Looks like the Persians have another city.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Since Sedentary Lifestyle obsoletes Culture (Neanderthal), we have to build as many Neanderthals as we can while we still can.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

We encounter Brazil, led by Hammurabi! Also, those barbarian canoes decide to not attack us, for some reason.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Frederick doesn't intend to leave his cities undefended. Also, the Aztecs have started researching Sedentary Lifestyle, as seen on the scoreboard.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Unfortunately, our scouts suffer some setbacks.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Fucking locust swarms. Why is sending in the military the best way to defeat them, anyway? It doesn't make sense.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

We continue assembling the army. Having your production center on an island is a pain.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I guess our luck with the barbarians didn't last very long. But who cares? It's just a canoe. Although I guess it is a bit significant...
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

After all, that canoe was the last unit to die in the Prehistoric era.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Since we got to Sedentary Lifestyle before anyone else, we get a free technology! What tech do I pick?
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Continuing from that, we can found a religion! Naghualism won the vote by a decent margin.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Of course, we can't build Neanderthal Warriors anymore. They're all in the NSA now.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

We can adopt Divine Cult as our Religious civic now, and Naghualism as our state religion. Or we could go research divination for Prophets. I'd rather not keep Folklore, but we can keep it if you guys really want. That means no state religion, though.

Also, here's the tech tree:

Just dropping in to say that I am a big fan of this Let's Play and all Let's Plays of this mod, thanks to when quill18 made a series on this mod. This is all in spite of the fact that I have never once played Civ 4 in my life. I just love all of the tedious detail in the mod.

I say we go for prophets, Divine Cult looks a little iffy to me. That extra unhappiness just screams rioting.

We need to get to writing ASAP so we don't have to war with everyone everywhere, but it's so far away right now....
