Last Minute Preparations - 350 BC to 300 BC

We check the production sequence in London then off we go...

Nice to know :)

340 BC: Sweden and The Huns are blocking us again so let's try the African route.

Keeping a Worker busy and we create a safe Trade Route to Reykjavik.

That's all for this turn.

330 BC: We plan our Scout's mission to Africa.

We need to attend to the pesky Dutch Trireme that is too near for us to be happy.

We appear to have pleased the Dutch.

320 BC: We have received a Work Boat which is planned for our Whales hex near The Azores.

We order a Warrior in Nantes....

....and squeeze a second Warrior in London's Production Queue.

Spain has vacated the island of Madeira, SW of Barcelona, so we place a Catapult there - within firing range of Barcelona.

310 BC: We place our Catapult on alert status....

....and change another Trade Route to Reykjavik. There is less Gold but it is safer.

The Lighthouse has been built in Plymouth so we order another Trireme - we can't have too much naval power.

The Dutch Trireme has moved west of Reykjavik - good :)

We have disappointed William - how terrible :)

300 BC: The Forest is gone so we can now construct a Mine....

....and we continue to escort the Dutch out of our area of operations.

Now we purchase the Whales hex and create Fishing Boats on the hex.

We confirm that Whales are available for Export....

....and Catherine of Russia gets the deal.

That ends this post - it went according to plan.

Until next time :)
