Alright, we'll go for fermentation and then copper working. Lots of prerequisite technologies first, though.
Persepolis is getting more stable now. That's good news.
Also we built another culture.
You can also see that the Cherokee are the founders of Christianity. Now we know where it came from!
Hey, is that a barbarian city?
It is a barbarian city! Also an assload of crocodiles.
Un67 challenges a locust swarm to a knife fight.
He wins and steals the swarm's money and advanced scientific knowledge. Somehow.
Meanwhile, another locust swarm shows up and eats our fences and roads. Damn locusts.
Also the Huns have converted to Christianity without me noticing.
Aqizzar discovers another barbarian city! Man, we're pretty far to the south aren't we?
And here's yet another barbarian city!
I'd been leaving this neanderthal alone because he was fortified on a forest and I couldn't be bothered to clear him out when there were whole civilizations to fight.
Taste cold flint, locusts!
Why would an archer try to shoot locusts with arrows? That would be a stupid thing to do.
Hey look, they have a penguin! We've gotta get ourselves a penguin too, someday!
Also this is a new Aztec town or I am a small, red nut.
Seriously far south.Oh hey, we've found some new neighbors! Hello Incans!
You can see that they are followers of Hellenism! Hellenism was founded by the Persians, and we own its holy city. Interesting.
There's been a lot of barbarian towns popping up lately.
Lots of towns in generaly been popping up lately.
We finally get this myth.
Another wonder built before we could get our grubby mitts on it! Admittedly it's just a culture, but it's a culture we could have gotten! Oh well. I didn't think to get a screenshot of the civilopedia entry for it or its unique unit, so we know nothing about it.
The problem with exploring jungles is that you can't see things that are far away because the trees get in the way.
Oh hey, another Cherokee town!
...And another target.
We're the strongest, and everybody knows it!
Especially now that we can build beehives and get honey! No mead until fermentation though.
Oh dear.
Ooh, eggs. Screw hens, let's domesticate emus.
I've been training some rangers to use as scouts. This is why:
Two +sight range promotions for free! Guaranteed not to be eaten by animals, and probably won't die to a stray barbarian.
Also, this is just the perfect standoff pose, isn't it?
Man, those Huns have a lot of resources near their capital. I count deer, corn, obsidian, bison, horses and clams in workable distance, and there's grapes and fine clay nearby too.
Meanwhile, the army has finally assembled in Aberpanapopuma. It's big and mean and it's going to stomp all over the Huns.
And from the looks of it, we've got six towns' worth of stomping to do.
Meanwhile, I build a tiny bit of infrastructure.
Putnik on the Ritz is assigned to lead our stack and especially MaximumZero, who will hopefully turn into a badass city-clearer.
Finally, the year 6900 BC dawns. We make three important discoveries. First, the technology of orchards. Our fruit picking improvements will now upgrade into orchards.
We also learn of one new city...
Yep, that's the Islamic holy city. But if you look at the scoreboard, you can see that the Navajo have recently converted to Christianity. Weird.
...And one possible city.
Now, I want to make this clear: Our current government civic can support up to six cities. Beyond that, we start racking up 3 unhappiness for each city over the limit. We currently have five cities, so we could take the Hunnic capital without unhappiness penalties. But I'm fairly sure large empires suffer instability penalties. I'm not sure what will happen if we take Szeged. But we will have another big city at least. So
do we capture Szeged, or burn it to the ground with the rest of them?Finally, have a new world map!
Yeah, I forgot to add the Brazilians. But who cares about them, anyway?
Oh, and also a list of world leaders.
