We're having serious unhappiness problems with new cities and even some existing ones, as they increase their population beyond what can be controlled with a Temple and a unit or two in town. We are getting so much gold from huts that I'm not sure we need to emphasize that in our tax rate, but we are still getting techs from huts, too. We have rehomed a number of units to ease the support burden from our Heartland cities, and that is helping with production. We have 854 Gold in spite of having rushed some Temples for happiness control and a few other structures so that we could get martial law units started. We have destroyed the Japanese civ, and the Americans took care of the Indians for us. Those Americans are going to be a problem. They are matching us on the powergraph and we have not yet found them.
