This PB appeared to be exceedingly dull initially. But it's now looking to be a lot of fun. Everyone except Ruff (and maybe AT) still has a shot. I hope the game delivers on the promise. popcorn

Jowy building the hindu shrine and Tarkeel / Amica doing the monk wonders also for hindusim is going to be huge.... for Jowy. To be fair its a late shrine so Tarkeel / Amica might not have thought he was going to do.

OH MAN COME ON CAIRO!!!!! HIT IT!!!

[Image: 9gY2Lmx.jpg]

To be fair I would only give myself like a 5% chance of realizing that Jowy stack can be freely hit so wouldn't blame Cairo for missing. This is probably the best chance of severely hurting Jowy though. 

I don't think Jowy can free it by going to Drama though in the amount of time needed so unsure if worth the detour.

Does Cairo have enough units? Even without the peace if Cairo moved to the cows he would have an attack on Jowy without Jowy being able to strike (or escape without losses).

I mean Jowy literally can't step in Indian territory for rest of peace treaty so maybe Cairo will realize at some point.

Looking back I didn't realize it is because Ruff culture expanded back onto those tiles and they were free.

Jowy had a picture of Cairo's stack and he has 20 cats, 17 HA, like 6 knights, 3 oromo's at that time on whatever tile was highlighted, so without doing any kind of sim I'm going to say he has enough for some good smashy smashy.

Jowy could possibly get 1 or 2 galley/galleons (rush or whatever) and escape most of his stack in a short time with quick rotation ?

Looks like Jowy will get away with it maybe?

On topic of Jowy, someone who is good with how culture is accumulated should probably post something (or just post some article). He has asked directly and indirectly and its a mechanics thing lurkers can answer I believe, but its not a subject I'm comfortable explaining.

That's not entirely true. He would need to know how much culture Ruff's city puts out.

Edit: Err, no. You are right. The tiles in question are first ring of Ruff's former capital. Jowy will never get them.

Its interesting that they formed an alliance with official defensive pacts everyone can see.

SD is going to be so ticked when AT steals Lib. SD got greedy with it.
