Looks like we attack, and both sides suffer horrible losses. Exciting.
I might have civ access tonight, maybe not until tomorrow.
I have to run.

We could sacrifice Europa of course and hit them hard in a turn or two.
We should generally leave pikes 1N of the stack (after attacking) and muskets 1E given the pinch knights within range of 1N.
Tsk, Seven posting in the lurker thread again. I can't help but think he would have enjoyed this battle, whether "malicious intent" or "natural urge to take down the leader".
I don't think we're the leader any more, anyway. We have no economy and increasingly backwards units.
And on the sixth day, god created Manchester.

Ok, I've done most of the turn... er, except attacking.
The counter-strike shall follow.

Ha, sorry.
In brief.
Lots of units killed.
Generally not ours.
Bloody mess.
We live to fight another day.
Over.

Ok, I'm a tease. What do you want to see? A big sea of green? Before and after demographics? Splendid attack odds?

Remaining units, and those things.

Right then, the turn. Or rather, The Turn. Novice always finds an excuse not to play them. This time, post-hedonistic exhaustion / general illness (delete as applicable).
From his "deathbed" (double kingsize, brandy by his side), however, he cajoled me onward. I had done most of the boring stuff (builds, whipping, general unit movement) before he "awoke" (came online). I even had a go at chaining and, do you know, I think some of it worked out okay.
I was procastinating, though. As I am now. Sorry.
While you are champing (not chomping) at the bit, I will show you just how bad our economy has become. Sure, we're in war civics, but still. Ouch. Just look at those unit expenses.

We're in difficult circumstances. A hundred pairs of hooves bestride our land in search of blood, whilst we sit in our castle, skint, cleaning our weapons. The people are increasingly unhappy. What shall we do to fight our way out of this predicament?
Why, we must ATTACK!

Mon centre cède, ma droite recule, situation excellente, j'attaque.
