Last turn I tried to get access to the only ivory I could see in the trade screens, from Molach. He wants 4gpt and I said yes. In a few turns we'll be able to get WEs !
Dreylin gave me an opportunity to kill off a guerilla II LB, which I took (with a CB). Flawless victory !
I put the stack on the hill to stop him from going forward. There's no way he can go through now.
In order to get HBR in a reasonable time frame I asked Ichabod for a loan. I hope he's not racing for some important tech...
Did you accept? Seems to me that you'd likely need 10 turns to get a decent stack of cats together anyway. On the other hand, letting him off the hook for WW might not be the greatest thing either.
