Not that I want to nitpick the rules to death 
(well okay, I do check the rules of all the succession games regularly, but more precisely I don't want to nitpick Old n Slow), but.....I note that our capital is in Sad King Julius still. While the refugees of the dearly departed Slowburg of many years past took a long time to claim the city of Oldburg as their own, did they not desire to make it the capital of our Empire? (In defence of Old n Slow, I am not clear on the rules here, were we just to build palaces in our settled cities and not our conquered ones? Or has it just been 
so long since Old n Slow had to build a palace that he understandably forgot?
)
If the latter is true, as the next player in line to play, I propose that I use our gold
to rush build a palace in Oldburg prior to my first turn, and then proceed as normal, building the Palace in our proper capital, none other then the Glorious and Magnificient City of Spare Oval (though we are a little short on building materials currently in Spare Oval, and I might have to take down some City Walls, Libraries and University in order to gather enough materials from our lesser cities (Lesser Cities = Kenobi Kave, Pax STYOM, Sad King Julius, Git's Hole and Lagomorphia) in order to do so.
Note to all: in rereading the rules in the 1st post of this thread, I note that good natured mockery of other cities is a requirment of this game that I have been ignoring, hence my notes above, though I am seriously considering getting rid of City Walls and any science buildings we have

2 in the Sioux city of Shanghai (Pyramids and Great Wall)
Sparrowhawk thinks to himself...I am the only one with one city, better make the second one a good one, as I have waited this long. Shanghai with its wonders? (But we really don't need Pyramids as our cities won't be growing much more anyway and the Wall has long since expired) I like Dijon, as the most difficult area in my opinion to attack will be the Greeks, the rest are accessible by road or rail (on will be soon, once our engineers have done their work). Though we could shipchain from either Git's *rse or Kenobikave to the remaining Greek cities, it seems Dijon is a much more natural choice 
(my screw up, I am not used to ship chaining 
for either side)
