Did you make any trade offers yet? Also I'm planning to hold off the dry whips...either we dry whip this turn and build nothing next turn or hold and whip next turn and he won't attack ZIF immediately.
Killed the crossbow but have to delete the HA.
I'm thinking of something like our Map and 21 gpt for 200 of Whosit's gold, same for CH. 13 gpt for 100 of john's gold.

Johns accepted the trade 
Adrien moved his mounted stack to the hill SW of ZIF, leaving his Medic III Chariot on the spot where the melee stack joins.
We can see another small stack trailing:
Down in Barbstralia he has holed up everything in the city.
No big decisions to be made IMO except sprinkling. I think the idea was to attach to the warrior in ZIF, right? We can move him 1W of the city along with the 3xp longbow and spear, and berserker, and sprinkle, but we won't be able to upgrade this turn (don't want to waste xp on morale)...though I just realised that the melee is unlikely to attack this turn over a river (I love our chokepoints). We can try for a 7xp sprinkle on three 3xp units but one will only get 6xp.
Feel free to play the turn, though I can do it if necessary. 2 more turns till johns can declare on Adrien.

So the mounted stack is threatening to move past us? What will we have in NB if he decides to hit that instead? Do we get odds on an attack with anything?
I had counted 7-9 units with 3xp in range; am I misremembering?

Possibly; we'll find out soon next turn. But we expected this move: it forks NB and ZIF instead of just attacking ZIF.
Quote:What will we have in NB if he decides to hit that instead?
3LB, 2 Berserkers (1 whipped this turn), 2Axe, 1 Spear, 1 Warrior and 0-2 chariots. We can upgrade 1 of Axe, Warrior, or Chariot.
Quote:Do we get odds on an attack with anything?
We don't get odds on our attack on the mounted stack. Once the melee stack gets on flat ground and not across the river we get odds with Berserkers.
Quote: I had counted 7-9 units with 3xp in range; am I misremembering?
Seven 3xp can get sprinkled and return safely to a city. There is a berserker on the 'Filler' that cannot move 2 squares without being in range and should only move 1N.

OK. Do you want to play now, or shall I do it this evening. I warn you that I'm going out drinking after work and may not be in the best state to take it on....

OK, but I reserve the right to claim "too drunk to play" and delay the game another 12hrs for you to do it tomorrow!

Trade window from CH: 200g for 23gpt - I accepted.
Trade window from Adrien: Peace Treaty for 80g (from us).
I'm very tempted to accept. I'll stay logged in for now with the trade window up; if you can respond in the next hour or so then we can do it without having to re-propose.

Argh, been interrupted while waiting and can't finish the turn.
I had to hit decline to get out, but we need to discuss whether to re-propose (we might have to offer more gold).
What's weird is that the offer didn't show up when you logged in (unless it was paused at the time and you didn't unpause - it only showed up when I unpaused.
