Yeah, just to clarify: Engineering will also be a valuable asset when it comes to managing this attack without a hitch. So it's not really that much about lost beakers, but couple of extra knights vs. extra movement for our army a bit earlier. Hmmm..
Any bets how Azza is going to react if our alpha strike succeeds?
1. Turtle in his remaining empire
2. Try to recapture his capital and march towards our main army
3. Try to recapture Prove Me Wrong in the south where we don't have large amount of troops at the beginning
4. Split his forces and try to recapture everything
5. Something else? Send everything towards Mardoc, pillage every improvement, whip all cities down to size 1, etc..
