    Well, having found found the southern coast of the empty land we have found, I have been moving the Caravan west. I think we should land the Explorer even further west to free the Caravan for trading the Salt (even if is to our own colonies. Until we run into something west that stops us, I think that is our best direction. I surely don't want to press our luck east toward the Egyptians.

    I agree it would be wise to spend our gold on structure before we actually make official contact (might be wise to forego our first offerred contact if we find it with Caravan or Explorer for one turn).

    The Sioux are usually very accepting and tolerant as long as we don't attack. I use them often in games (mostly because I like and can remember their city names). We would be lucky to meet them, I think. But you never know. At this late year, they may all be primed to attack us, as weak as we are.

    I think we should also consider the benefits of getting our colonies to celebration size and trying to advance them rapidly. But maybe that is a question for after the next turn-session.

      A delivery to a big Celt city will give 150-200g, even for undemanded Salt. A deliver to one of our colonies will give 50-60g. BTW, a gold van will give even more delivered to a big AI city.

      There is indeed a big area to the SW of Caralis. Blackclicking gets a continent #19 for about 8 more tiles. So exploring there for city sites is a good idea.
