Lol, nice turn of phrase there.

So...
last turn 3g <=> 3g, this turn 2g <=> 2g?
Last turn cow, this turn copper. Where is your copper?

I have a pretty good hunch what he's trying to say here, but that's cuz I've spent waay too much time reading these threads. This being a greens game, do you have a guess?

Not having a type "1337 <9000 E.N.I.G.M.A." machine readily available, I guess he is going to attack Suttree in 2 turns, advising me to whip axemen, gather forces from the two cities for the attack and wait for his signal and attack with him.

I think you're pretty close. Up to you if you want to do something with that information or not.

It's interesting that the offer he sent this turn was something you could actually accept as a trade if you wanted to...

hey quick note. If you're thinking of throwing in with Oxy, this would be the time to set up your turn order. Oxy plays after Suttree, so the gentlemanly thing to do would be to line up with Oxy. since you've been playing after Suttree anyway, just keep doing what you're doing.

Good idea to be prepared in case you want to jump in after their war starts.

Time not always on the good side. Right now between Suttree and Oxy.

Retep's GA ended.

Oxy sent
1g <-> 1g
copper <-> copper

So I expect he will do some nasty next turn/this turn. I got longbow in 3 out of 4 cities now.
I'm on the fence on this one, but building roads toward knoxville in case of fun time.

sounds good. knoxville will instantly get all of it its old culture back, if you can take it. this would be a big blow to Suttree's mobility, and a boon to Oxy's movements in the area. however, Suttree's horse archers are fast and plentiful... go in hard or not at all. Knoxville is a terribly valuable city, Suttree may write of his Western frontier to try to recapture Knoxville.

Another thought: what do suttree's defenses loom like in the East? you know, the part of the world not stacoed with 100+ troops? If Knoxville is too big a target, maybe those cities could be got?

what does the power graph look like? any more movements from BXB?

Bugger... Knoxville just recieved a Musketman. With 9 STR it will make any attack on Knoxville a bloody massacre.
Eastern defenses are capable. chariot,spear,axe, archer on top of a hill city. A small city with 2 defenders(axe/archer seen six turns ago) between that and knoxville.
Suttree has done a good job with his GA.
I now have 4 longbowmen in 4 cities.
Oxy has declared war on Suttree, but not moved any troops. I have not declared war on Suttree, considering breaking OB before making any overt moves.

BXB is silent, not moving.

He has over 1k gold and gaining about 260 pr turn. Methinks that large stack of Horse Archers is about to get some serious steriod abuse going on.
