So we're a bit concerned about the state of things. The German team teched Feudalism, and we will both be facing double promo longbows if progress is not made quickly. We'll be taking a 3rd city this turn, and likely a 4th next turn, but things will bog down as they whip out a bunch of longbows from their core cities. Right now you guys are headed up to Wesselburen, but capturing that will not be very beneficial for you if it's choked with culture from their surrounding cities, and I don't know how you could capture those other cities if you're facing a bunch of whipped longbows.
We can capture the cities in our section, though it will be pretty bloody, but if you guys want to make any progress it's pretty important that we both keep up the pressure on them and that their core cities start falling quickly. I'd really suggest you guys turn around and take a shot at Warendorf instead. Many of their units are going to turn around and fight us anyway since you can't hit the city for a few more turns, so things should be softened by the time you get there. The longer you wait, the more longbows will be present, and that will make it impossible for you guys to make any gains. The tundra cities will still be there for the taking when the core cities fall.
Thanks,
