Libbing MilSci, with Steel available? 
If only you and me and dead people know hex, then only deaf people know hex.
I write RPG adventures, and blog about it, check it out.

On the plus side we have to defend just 1 city ( of course losing that one is fatal). But if you were retep, would you rather attack us or Sian? Which brings us to the next question, should we help filthy behated Sian in a possible war against retep? Collateral and Flanking, but once someone reachs Cannon if you can't built Cuirs you generally will not be able to produce the sheer hammers needed for a successful defence.

Had thought of steel but wasn't sure about the requirements.  Yep, it's most probably the better choiceWill it looks like retep wants to go for rifles, not cannons, so cats +knights (+ muskets? ) Should do the job How many more turns of peace with Sian left?
Oh libbing steel is definitely the solution, but I'd rather concentrate on getting to lib first
 If no one has the required techs by the time I get there I could stop a few beakers away from getting the tech and see how far I can get. One weird game where the team that oracles feudalism and libs steel doesn't win ! I'm betting on being forced to take an earlier tech though.Sian is going for the music artist BTW, and probably MT after that, he already has drama. 2 or 3t of peace left with him, after that things might become tense.

Before the battle :
 After the battle :   I knew it would be close, but losing half of the battles when they're all above 60% chances is frustrating. The remaining spearman killed 2 knights ! The first one barely made a dent and the second one wasn't at full strength, they were both in the 65-75% range and they both lost. The best part is that Sian can snipe the city now, and I can't even take it back because we're in forced peace for the next 2t.  At least most of the knights are getting a promotion.  I sent him a request for the city. I didn't do all the work against Grimace so he could have 5 (!) cities from him to my 3. Grimace is down to 1 city, I sent him a peace offer which I have no idea if he'll take. In the good news the MoM is due next turn, as long as no one finishes it this turn. I also just built a settler for the second island spot. |
