That's okay. Everything seems to be sorted out now.
So the sneak attack in the north was a false alarm: I defogged the danger tile with a Guerilla longbow, and there are no knights (or any other units) in sight; it's not even roaded. So I began reshuffling my army for zone defence of there and Calcar Ridge, focussing on the latter, since that's where LAM might strike. I am building pikes almost everywhere as HAK instructed.
Just an FYI, I have played part of the turn and captured the city (they pulled back all but 3 of their units), but I have not finished the turn. I have errands to run for the rehearsal dinner tonight, but should be back in a bit to finish the turn. If I don't finish it by 4pm today, someone else will need to. Basically, reinforce the city a little bit, but mostly move the rest of the forces NW onto the hill for advancing on WK's capital.
Just had a look
 Nice work!  I was hoping we could cut the roads to the city, but its not possible this turn, will have to wait for next turn. What promotions are the longbows going to get?

I was happy that WK hadn't attacked the stack since I had forgotten to at least give some of the pikemen promos for defending against Knights. I'll remedy that and also promote at least half the units in the stack that eill be advancing.
I wish I knew what they had to hit it with. Put a pike in too and make half of the longbows CG?
Did you finish up the turn?

Nothing much to report for my turn. Just a global note: Smack was the first to Liberalism last turn, and WarriorKnight (the civ facing HAK) switched to Nationhood this turn. Old Harry, I recommend putting a Sentry-promoted unit on the hill 2S of his capital if you press the offensive, and perhaps (assuming it's a two-mover) move it back-and-forth between there and the flat ground 1S of the capital to get vision across the lake, etc.
Long(ish)-term, I'm afraid of our prospects in the west with LAM controlling the other shore; HAK's core is very vulnerable to boating from naval bases there. I recommend making every effort to maintain naval supremacy in the intermediary sea - I guess that goes without saying, but better to say it so we keep it in view.  Old Harry, let me/us know your thoughts on the situation once you're able to take stock in the next couple days; I don't know if HAK's been able to give you any instructions via chat or what-have-you, but let's put ourselves on the same page since we'll both be subbing for some time. Fake-edit: (HAK did finish his turn, don't worry about playing it.)
HAK did give me some very helpful instructions:
Quote:Right now the only instructions are....STAY ALIVE and KICK SOME RMOG ASS! I just had a look around for a bit and I think we're going to have naval supremacy on the eastern front for a while, so we should take advantage of that. I also miss-clicked when looking around and I think we'll lose a guerrilla II longbow  will write more when I finish the turn.

I cancelled the horse deal so you can build knights THH, do you need longbows from me? I can't build crossbows at the moment, but at some point it might be good for you to send me iron to make a few.
Happy birthday was on walls, but it's right in the middle of the empire so I switched it to a mace. I switched the Mt Loon scientists to be merchants and we're still losing 15 gpt (probably due to all those units on the RMOG hills.) Finally this is the garrison in Paranoid - and you can see the longbows that I miss-clicked   They are drafting muskets right now, so I don't think we're going to take the city I didn't end turn in case you want to change anything - can you end for me when you're done?
