Sir Ralph and others have raised this topic elsewhere. It struck me as being important enough to merit discussion in a dedicated thread.
It is time to build some war chariots, because we are rapidly approaching ideal timng for triggering our golden age.
Imminent Reasons to trigger GA:
1) As the early medieval era unfolds, some very useful wonders become available (Sistine's Chapel, Sun Tzu, etc.)
2) We might well want to build our Forbidden Palace soon, north of our subcontinent core. (We can always palace jump later, to fit new contours after a late industrial/early modern round of expansion).
3) As we grow in size, and given our central location on Abananaba, we can expect to be attacked fairly soon -- probably by either the Germans, Persians, or Aztecs -- possibly several civs at once.
Action steps:
1) build up a small group (3?) of war chariots, and stash them centrally, in a city.
2) wait for the proper moment.
3) unleash them when we want the GA to start.
Thoughts?
