Second, our plan was two axes and a bunch of bloodpets (just more hammer efficient than Moroi at this point). Given he has no Archery Ranges and a light garrison I vote we continue with the operation.
Having Archery and having Archers is not the same thing smile. With only two Warriors as garrison I bet we can raze a few cities, and if not we can at least pillage the crap out of him.

I've been thinking about how to balance the rewards from this war. As stated before, the Balseraphs and Lanun gain fertile land to expand into, while the Calabim/Ljosalfar do not. Ljosalfar while contributing are not going to incur the unit supply costs we will. We request that our unit supply costs for the war be covered. This still means we are paying for the hammer costs and the unit support costs on our own. Does this seem fair?

Been some time since we did an update, so here it is:

First off, Copper city will found next turn, after which we must immediately kick off River of Blood:

Even if the Bears attack IBT they will only kill two Bloodpets. Road with the Workers then found. Build queue should be Monument -> Governor's Manor. After Mining the Copper disperse our Workers as you see fit, but when the borders pop we want to farm the floodplains and Wheat obviously.

Prespur should start building Bloodpets and working hammer tiles. Alternatively build a Training Yard and Moroi. I believe we are in Nationhood? If that is the case the Training Yard gives +1 happy as well. If we don't get our unit suplly paid for, I strongly prefer Moroi.

Nubia had a Worker queued and I didn't notice, which is why we are building one. It probably isn't needed now. Work hammer tiles and build bloodpets. It would be nice to squeeze in a Public Baths, as we will badly need the happy.

Acaia needs to build a Monument, then Bloodpets I guess.

Pertinent quote. I say we get the wounded Axe to Nubia and start healing. Then we take 3 BPs on Settler duty (assuming Bears don't attack) and that right there is 40*2 + 16*3 = 128. Two BPs from Nubia, then DoW on Serdoa and start marching through his lands toward Malakim. Trickly three more BPs up and we meet our commitment.

If Serdoa is not building us a Settler, build one of those next out of Prespur for sure.

Given the lack of defenses he has (and no Archery Ranges) I strongly suggest we continue with this plan. We will have two promoted Axes (STR5) and 5 promotable BPs (STR4) in his lands by t97 assuming we know the distance correctly. Serdoa we will DoW you in about 5 turns and start then. We will then continue with another stack of BPs to reach our hammer commitment. If we hit him with 6ish Swords/Axes and 20ish Warriors/Bloodpets in 20 turns, I think we'll do more damage than if we hit with Catapults/Saverous/Moroi in 40 turns. He's got six (6) Warriors on defense. Six Warriors. And he is apparently in builder mode. Uberfish can continue to supply us with information and if this changes, we adapt. But for now I strongly suggest we stay the course.

Negotiations between Ilios and Sedora broke down, so Sedora is going to raze the Yaggy city with Loki. In pretty good news IMO, he has agreed to trade us a Settler for two Workers (nice that we accidently finished one). Sunrise can you verify in game that this will save us 65H?

The plan is he settles a city for us, we move workers to his border, he takes them, then gives us the city for peace. Need to provide him the location but he has a Settler nearly done, so this is very good for us indeed.
