Turn 94
The tension is actually too much, I almost didn't want to look at the game when I got the email... And then you get something lovely like this!
I'll offer clam for fish to cement our obviously excellent relationship...
But enough of this frivolity. You want to know what's going on with the war don't you? Suttree seems to be massing his forces, he'll have another chariot that can hit the city ruins or our jungle this turn as well, and may be waiting for a detachment of axe to arrive from the south. Things that we can do:
- Move TheStick NE or NW, move everyone else into Hastings and send the workers back to chop jungle or forest
- Move TheStick SW and move a bowman so we have two bowmen and a warrior in Hastings and two bowmen and an axe on the jungle. Send the warriors back again
- Cover the workers with two bowmen - actually a bit risky as a CI chariot gets 61% odds over the river (an unpromoted chariot gets 31%, and that's all that's shown up so far, but the other might be CI) and put everyone else in the city.
- Something else?
I'm really not sure here so I'll save this bit until the morning, and hope you've got some good ideas...
In the west it turns out that Rowain is harder than Mardoc, having survived without a scratch against the spear. Isandlwana is founded and we whip the axe in France this turn, then I think he (the axe) goes exploring while Rowain covers France. The galley is off to the south and Lunch is just moving one tile at a time (unless you think that's a bit chicken?)
We have a new bowman, BaII, who I'd like to send over here as a lightning rod (sorry BaII) unless you had better plans for him? Also we're only running three wealth builds this turn, but will increase to five over the next couple of turns, so I'm running 70% science this turn, then will run 50-70% next turn when BoP has the gold and Agincourt the silver so Cannae can grow to size 7. At which point we should be able to run 100% until we're done.
The results of Suttree's whips (and ours too)
