We killed a praet that was hiding in the fog. Accidental kill count +1!



There are 12 Roman triremes that we can see, so it was time to land.
I think we killed most of Roman land units so I split up the stacks. The injured guys will heal in the city for a bit.

The upgraded axes surprisingly got the amphibious promo.

The ships are going back to pick up more units. I'm also building more triremes as we will need to clean up those enemy triremes at some point.

GG was settled in Emperor, I'm hopeful that we get a second one from this war and we'll settle it too.

Mjmd entered the war and took a Roman city.

Few turns ago we achieved circumnavigation with our scouts, just need to get the tech now.

Why shouldn't they get the promotion, it's part of the berserker.

The way it's written "starts with" made me think it's applied when they're built and it's just a normal promotion from that point.
I wonder if upgrading a berserker gets rid of the promo. It really shouldn't, but it might..

Promotions stick around after upgrading, like the quecha.

Took the island city of Ostia:



No losses.



Mjmd settled this. I'm OK with it if he sends me bananas. If not, I'll raze it.  hammer



GKC has Crossbowmen. I think someone is gifting him gold because he got it pretty damn soon after MC.
I think I will pick up Construction and build catapults after Optics. I was hoping to blitz to Rome with the galleys, but he just had too many triremes.
Next turn we'll capture the southern city. We can attack Cumae as well. I will vodka it, but intuition says that I don't have quite enough.

Rome attacked our trireme stack. They killed 6 of our triremes for 5 of their triremes and 1 of their galleys.
I think 1:1 trades should favor me as I'll have steadier economy and production going forward.
We covered the injured triremes with new triremes and some of our galleys.

Rome also attacked out at my berserkers with a single praet and won that battle. I think that one was a desperation move to save Cumae.



First the easier battle. 7 berserkers vs 2 xbows and 1 praet.
The first 4 berserkers attacked and lost.



Leaving it to a 3v3. The odds were on my side still, but in the end I fell a little short as only a red health xbow remained.
The trade was 6 berserkers for 1 xbow 1 praet. Not great!



Not wanting to risk the same with Cumae, we instead went for Satricum.
We killed the desperate praet on the way, and also an xbow on the hill before it could get to a city. Still lost 2 berserkers though.
Next turn we can hopefully capture both Satricum and Mediolanum. Cumae will have to wait until catapults.

We already got the second GG spawn. I sent it to settle in the capital. It will be able to build double promo (+ navigation) ships.



Mjmd is advancing with little resistance. I think he'll be able to take the capital. That's a shame, but as long as Rome is destroyed the Vikings are happy people  nod

Galleys killed: 14
