Phew okay.

Spawn Barbarian Camp at G15

Place an additional Barbarian Army unit in the camp at G15.

Place my free settler at Persopolis

Then for my actual turn.

1.) Spend 1 Culture for the free Education Advance and two ideas. I will acquire Free Education

2.) Collect 1 Wood and 1 Ore from Babylon.

f.) As a Free Action, use Architect in Babylon to build an Academy with 1 food, 1 ore, 1 wood. This will give me two ideas but reduce Babylon to Neutral mood.

3.) Advance to Currency. This should trigger an additional event.

Before Stelas processes your turn Frankenfreak, would you like to trade your 1 gold for 1 mood token? If you don't wish to take it, then I'll sweeten the deal to 1 gold for 2 mood tokens for Straight White or Gutter Owl.

Nothing I can offer anyone for a single gold coin? How about 1 Gold Coin for 1 2 Mood tokens now and 1 gold on my turn? Pure profit, all it costs is a little trust! Spread the wealth! :bernin:

Ah nuts to resources and luxuries, you gentlemen are the more discerning sort! Invest in Persia today for the low, low price of 1 gold coin and receive the Mercenaries action card AND your money back! Join the wonderful world of high-finance and war profiteering today!

I'm so glad that for once we have a bonafide river. Pirates appear! For the sake of speed I'll assume frankenfreak would like to place them on a tile that isn't in range of a city.
