Future war theatre. We are going to move our main stack to a tile 1SE from Middelburg and attack next turn. You can see what forces Slow has in the city. Slow has a pretty big power (still more than we have, actually), especially given that he has just researched MC. It means that he can have a pretty large number of HAs/cats. It makes me worried about a counter-attack - our army isn't actually especially big, he can overwhelm us with sheer numbers if he has them available. Of course, chances for this are low. That's why I succumbed to Zanth, who is pushing for an early attack. Another argument is that Slow is in golden age and trying to catch up in tech a little bit. I think he will have Machinery in a turn or two and he will be one tech short from Guilds after that. He may prefer not to throw his HAs away and to save them for upgrade.
