you can't really attack nor plunder anyone.
Before I laid out a game plan, I pondered my options.
Either Fighting or Marketing my way through.
I decided to play with a friendly approach.
So I created my own concept of a Heavy Production City and went that route.
My Skills at Collecting on Time were the stuff of Legends.
Diplomacy is what saved me from being attacked.
I built and maintained friendships as long as I could.
Once I had to rebuild my list of friends due to high-era trade restrictions.
I didn't have the near-unbeatable city defense until my game's half-way point.
Before that, it was being friendly and not plundery that kepy my goods safe.
I was plundered once, in the Middle Ages, and that was it.
A few people try on every new hood shuffle.
And I usually post those results.
