If we used the spy to infiltrate and steal techs from one of the invaders, what does our current tech position allow us to steal? Steel for cannons would be the most useful I'm sure, but I don't think we have the prerequisites, right? Would we get enough EPs to steal two techs, and would it come in time to matter anyway?

How long until the second GP pops, and will a golden age boost production enough to matter?

If we're dead in every possible scenario and we can't put the GSpy to use in any way to screw with CFC, then yeah send him to UCiv if he can make it that far.

Also, death to CFC.

Cavalery should absolutely own CFC right now but it will pnly last until they get rifle
But we need tp travel the GSpy and minor spies west
And steal 2 (?) techs
And build cav..
No idea if this is realistic option

I'm for getting Cav its a small detour from CivPlayers. I'm just not sure how many EPs we need but it would definitely be the funniest play.

T176 early:
Oh boy!

Enemy advancing on all fronts.
We lost an important battle against CFC, where they attacked our Rifle with a Knight at 10% odds and won, which exposed the little stack to more damage and losses.

In the west a spy destroyed a jungle road with one of our larger stack on it. They must have been really lucky to have a spy close by or maybe we are just swamped by enemy spies.

Massive Civplayers stack approaching Frozen Jungle. Probably going to fall next turn.
Also two stacks at PETA, also going to fall.

Counter-espionage was run against us as well.

I will gift the Great Spy to UniverCiv.

Will post pictures tomorrow. But our downfall is really just dictated by how quickly they can move through our lands.
I will deal damage and create little resistance pockets where feasible, but triple promo Cuirassier, ouch.

At Eastern Dealers I could hit the Cannons with Rifles at 62% odds, but the cannons have Drill II promos, so that's definitely going to hurt the Rifles. Probably going to retreat there.

Is this where pindicator or someone says "where do you get a combat I cannon?"

I almost did a Combat 1.5 Cannon, since the odds worked out more closely. crazyeye

Fine. "Combat I Cuir".

How is this "autopromotion" thing working, because the (hopefully) surviving rifle(s) should have enough XP to promote and heal a bit, so will definitively have more chance to kill another unit or 2 behind EG cultural defense (with several other rifles) than in the open where it probably won't be able safe once EG is captured and cultural borders are gone and will be caught in the open as the other retreating stack.
