1 per person! alright

You are already the highest ranked warrior in the great Hippus empire!

Sure, it's a (tragically brief) living.

You just wait until it is you, yes you brave sir, who fells a mighty priest!

Uups

sucka!

Ok - when I take screenshots you will all start to see your names appear. Of course I need a save to be able to do that...

Ok - so I have had a look at the dimensions of the map and judging by the map knowledge we gained from that hut in the East, I cannot confirm that is where the Sheaim were. If the starts were evenly spaced out then an capital city would be in the fog here:

Pedigree is sniffing it out as we speak...

More Pedigree action! I know you think of your game as an interesting variant of an empire-builder, but really what we want here is all-Pedigree, all the time.

Also, hee-hee, you drew an obscene picture of the Sheaim area.

so I did. That was unintentional. The comment of sniffing it out is actually another unintentional gem! lol

With Orthus' Axe the Sidars might actually defend vs PoW. In IX Ellimist showed he knows how to fight. If they get BW in time they might be able to throw str5 + first strike (from Hidden) Warriors at the priests.

Known tech bonus indicates they don't have BW yet, but do have Festivals.

Yes - I don't want to sound like a knob suggesting things to them but it is obviously in our interest for them to defend as well as possible against the priests. They aren't quite the same as what everyone faced in PBEM 5 and so bronze warriors are a little bit more of a threat, especially with the axe and coming from the mist...

I did mail Mist a little while ago and he seemed to suggest that they weren't going to go for BW. I find it odd that they went for Festivals instead of heading to a military tech, even Education would have been better for 2xp on their warriors. Their power remains quite low also. huh

I played a couple of turns over the weekend and we discovered Exploration. research has now been set to AH, after which we should head to HBR. Then it will be necessary to backfill some economic techs... Education -> CoL with Festivals thrown in for good measure.
