GeeTfp!
Main was Cuthbert. Was paid 7200 for race, got 3 slow roads and 3 cons but no troops to take it (all maxi) until 13 with exp air on Neela. Developd 3 clerics and the scariest got diplo on 144 on 13lvl. Had high control but no use until that, with 4 DD experted diplo, took low cartographer and pretty joins. Opponent had his only road blocked by 50+ archers but managed to built horses and take 2nd castle week1. Anyway such road is a killer, tfp.
