Turn 174 - dessert (the best part)
Things just got real!
1. Pindi has taken the shrine back. The counterattack is happening even faster than I dreamed!
And about that Dreylin stack.. It might have something to do with the fact that pindicator is paying Dreylin 100gpt per turn!!
You know, sometimes civ offers way more drama than you would think (meta game being completely solved and all). If those Dreylin troops will contribute to the fight dtay won't have a single city left on pindi's continent in a bit more than 5 turns.
Btw, I think dtay is unlucky here reg Dreylin replacing Cyneheard. Surely Cyneheard would have been at least a bit pissed off to pindicator and maybe had piled on pindi instead of helping him? Well, dunno.
2. Krill finally declared on dtay and moved in!
There are in addition 2 cannons, 12 knights, 2 HAs and a Great Artist one turn behind. I was tempted to move our scout in the area to find our more, but I did not do it just in case there are any turn order considerations (I doubt not, but did not want to screw up anything)
Consequence:Now that Krill joined in and is in the process of splitting dtay's mainland in half I'm starting to think that we should not use our galleons and cuirs + commando knight for that Jewish Shrine raze next turn. That would be such a nice move and a perfect revenge for dtay's Agincourt commando attack in PB13, but I think we actually want to use those units and galleons for city capture duties. Daaaaamn, burning a shrine city worth 2344534 gpt per turn would be so tasty...
In the Sourthern former CH area I think our goal is to establish Theros as a future border city and take the 4 most sourthern cities:
In the northern part of former CH-land we would optimally want Prairie Village as a border city, everything else is a bit uncomfortable, but we need to wait and see how things develop with Krill's attack:
Even as I'm saying that we should not reconsider the shrine strike, by no means I'm suggesting a retreat from waters. We should keep threatening as many coastal cities as possible in order to tie dtay's units and make our allies life a bit easier.
Let's keep pushing, let's try not to lose the momentum here and in 15 turns we might well be in position where we don't need to worry about dtay anymore and can start scratching our head reg WTF we are going to do with BGN, who can decide between Q, wetbandit, Nakor and Dreylin (and us) reg where he grabs the next 10 cities.
Or as always when I'm getting excited.. Everyone bails out, nothing happens and
What a great to day to actually have some civ time! I even have time to criticize your micro..!
