RB Pitboss #1 Spoilers - Joai of the Incans - Krill/Memphus

[Yazilliclick]

I think that's the general direction I've been moving one of our HAs but I'd need to check when I get home. We are settling ZZ next turn though correct?

[Krill]

Maybe? If we build ZZ next turn, are we building RR the turn after? And SS the turn after that?

ie t139 ZZ
t140 RR
t141 SS

[Yazilliclick]

I'll have to check later. I know the settler is on the tile ready to settle, or was at least before this reload. Maybe it's there a turn early though.

[Krill]

Well, when I did hte MM, that was what I saw was possible. The problem, is that I don't have a reference. I don;t know which turn you started the plan.

[Yazilliclick]

Hey Krill we're on t3 of the plan and it's turn 139 in game.

I have a question about it though, from what I can tell for the settlers both would place the cities one tile west of where I was under the impression you were planning originally. Just want to verify before I move them that this is correct. RR will be 1NW of oasis, SS will be 1SE of the wheat?

[Krill]

SS is wrong, it should be E SE of the wheat, on the desert tile next to both seas. Canal city. Not averse to settling it 2E of the wheat, so regoarrarr has difficulty boating the city, buth te canal city location is the ideal one.

RR will be 1NW of the oasis, which is correct.

[Krill]

OK, for those of you that want to laugh out the insanity of us...

city 17 was settled this turn, t139. IN the next 6 turns looking at settling up to city 22. Up to city 24 depending on just how badly our economy crashes, then we run out of good city sites.

Still need to spread religion properly though, forests to chop, workers to slave, wealth to build and muskets to draft. I'm getting hte feeling this civ is going to go nuts by the time the Lins NAP is up.

Brother Yaz,

It has come to my attention that you have, how should I put this, disagreed with the latest directive coming down from on high. If you do not wish to be...excommunicated... you will conform to our wishes

Signed,

:-) - okay enough roleplaying obviously I'm not that great. And I don't really mind that you voted against my resolution as you don't have very many votes anyways.

But what DOES concern me is that you have apparently founded a city in our disputed zone (west of my iron city). Now, that concerns me strategically, because a city in that zone threatens multiple fronts of my land.

But what concerns me more is diplomatically. I feel betrayed - that you were talking and negotiating out of one side of your mouth, lulling me into some sort of sense of security, while simultaneously slipping a settling knife into my back. Honestly, it's more the type of behavior I'd expect to see out of Krill....

Now, while there's not much if anything I can do about it, I just wanted to lodge a formal protest.

Did I mentioned I settled RR? (need to finish turn later, didn't have enough time). He caught me in chat as well but didn't have time to talk so will have to write him an email later. Well don't have to but probably best to.

[MWIN]

If you can get that Iron city from Rego, you will have a better choke point...

[Yazilliclick]

It would be more defensible from him maybe but it'd leave us pretty far stretched out especially if sunrise and/or lins decided to break NAP over this.

Will peak at it's defenses next turn though just in case. If we really want to piss him off and help shady in the south a quick HA raid if it's not defended to wipe it out could work. Would probably stop him from working on settling anything else in his north.

Speaking of which he supposedly has a city up north that was relatively lightly defended earlier as it was under threat from barbs and only had a single defender. Though he was sending one or two other units up at that time to deal with the barbs.

Hi Yaz,

I'm told you have settled a city in the area we were discussing. How does this impact our agreement? In other words, since you unilaterally settled forward, are you now claiming the entire territory?

Thanks,

-sunrise

So now owe replies to sunrise and regoarrarr. I'd like to also send one out to the lins but not sure exactly what I want to say there yet. Would like to make it clear they'd have our support to attack sunrise without making it known how far against regoarrarr we are potentially going heh.
