Definitely worth waiting for OH for a war turn; no-one else draws such beauttiful arrows mischief .

Well, my internet became REALLY bad early this morning when we played the turn, so i dont have all the screenshots as i had OH play the back half of the turn.

I believe OH added another unit or two to this after the fact, but that is what we have staring at his capital. a War Elephant popped EOT for him in the capital according to OH, and Gavagai could move several HA's into the capital to prevent its capture, however, that would allow us to capture......

Snork HQ with minimum losses. 




Once Gavagai plays today/tomorrow/3days from now, ill post a better update. Please feel free to leave any questions!

Battle plans^ Arrows showing where i plan on moving the various stacks to force Gavagai to defend both his capital and Snork HQ. While also preventing his catapults from doing anything to my stack. Going to give OH another 30min or so before i go forward with the plans. Dont wanna hold up the turn too long.

So i played the turn, and rolled it. Nothing new popped out of either city, so im not seeing ANYTHING terrifying that Gavagai could do.


Long winded report? Maybe:

Not whipping the core/pangaea cities if we can help it to get their population up for the 2nd golden age.

Doesnt mean we stop bringing knights to the party.

Might be a little hard to see... so here is the meat n potatoes:

Should look nicer next turn... damn, coulda took a screenie of the powergraph when i rolled the turn. Fudge.


I also apologize for not taking a screenshot of the battlefield after moving all the units. That was my bad, but ill make sure to include it and where everything moved to once Gavagai plays again in 2days.

I also took a screenshot of every single city, but no one wants to see all that right?

I think someone is in a golden age right now.. GKC? Anyway, we captured the MoM from Gavagai this turn so our next Golden Age will be alot better.

Still doing pretty well tech wise. GKC has Civil Service + ( at turn roll ) Engineering, so a bit glad we got a NAP with him to t145 so far. Gives us the time we need to finish off Gavagai.

Hi! I tried to be polite last time I wrote but it looks like my politeness was at the expense of clarity. Let me try once again: I'll burn to the ground any city you settle to the east of your Copper's city meridian. I hope, it removes any confusion you could possibly have.

for the cost of 2knights, 1 HA, 1chariot.. we captured his capital and a city to the south. Next up... is Inner Lighthouse.

I don't see a problem. He specifically only said "settle" not "conquer". That could only mean he's ok with it.  neenerneener
