During the 1130 A.D. Turnchat, the following FAM-related events took place:
1130 A.D.:
Dyes deal with Babylon cancelled (was making 2 LPT)
Renegotiated Iron deal with Babylon for 12 LPT + 23 L + WM (was making 4 LPT)
This gave us an extra Dyes while we're making even more money from Babylon using the iron alone (rather than Iron+Dyes).
1140 A.D.:
China and Zululand sign a Trade Embargo against us
Fortunately, we had no deals with China and China is both so far behind in technology and so cash-strapped that they haven't had anything to offer us in nearly 20 turns anyway.
1150 A.D.:
Nothing
1160 A.D.:
India stopped giving us Furs. We did not renew, as we have no technology to sell them this time (the reason why they were giving us furs before), LPT cost would be prohibitive, and cabinet (principally the DM and the FAM) resolved that the loss of furs would not be harmful to us. It meant the loss of some WLTPD's, but otherwise we're fine.
Sold Communism to Iroquois for 8 LPT + 38 L + WM
Sold Dyes to Babylon for 4 LPT + 15 L + WM
1170 A.D.:
After Aggie moved our Ironclad into sight of one of the Zulu galleys, the Zulus became willing to talk to us. They will give us 13 L and their WM for peace, should we desire it.
We now have Industrialization, but the Germans discovered it at the same time. The Germans have already techwhored Industrialization to Rome, Japan, and India. Other civilizations are apparently are either broke or close to broke. This marks the second time Germany discovered a tech on the same turn we did (good thing that they're our military target...).
------------------------------------
I'm going to start working on orders for the next chat (1170 to 1220) now. The first action, as resolved by the President and the FAM (SMC was not in attendance) is already that we should use this opportunity to make peace with Zululand, that we may concentrate on the Germans.
