RBP3 [SPOILERS] National Pastime (Rapoleon_Hi of the Aztecs)

[Dreylin]

[*]my warrior over to the east revealed a city behind a river with 1 Q (

So does that mean the attack is on?

I'm trying to lurk this game, but it's just so confusing - there's a lot of players out there...

However, have been following this whole situation, but didn't want to 'do a Krill' and ask a question that accidently spoilered or similar.

Good luck though! Give them a firm kick in eye.

Sounds like fun & games from the Technical Thread. Any chance of an update?

[Ruff_Hi]

Sure - I will post an update tonight. It was dull there for a while (tile improvements pillaged) but I bet that this turn will be very interesting. Unfortunately, I expect another team (!) to declare on me this turn.

[spacemanmf]

Well, not many have writing yet, so that could be good or bad, right?

[Ruff_Hi]

Update time! If you remember, I was feeling pretty glum about my second city. I counted the tiles, looked at the turn counter and factored in the border pop ... every number I got came up with 1 or 2 turns short.

However, the Inca chased my 2 movement workers with their 1 movement units ... sure, it meant that I couldn't chop more archers ... but it also meant that I will probably get to keep my copper city. You decide!



I was bugging out with my workers aiming to gift them to India ... actually, they were going to declare on India see what damage the workers could do. I was hoping that India would capture them and gift them back (fast workers!!) once my Inca infestation was cleared.

Gamey? You tell me!

I moved 1 worker to quickly before I noticed that I could put a few worker turns into my copper mine.

The above was the situation before Nakor played out of turn. He actually moved the Q SE, the southern axe N and the other axe SW ... 3 units on 1 tile. They should have done that ages ago. However, that was fantasy land!

Here is the situation that they actually have to play with ...



Scratch 1 Inca axe. That Ottoman chariot is at health 3.4 and is due 1 promotion. Note the other chariot. Further note that the Inca cannot see it! Where should it go? I am hoping that the Ottomans move it to the plains hill 2N of its current position - then it can have lots of options and those Inca units are dead.

Am I worried about this Ottoman invasion? No, not really - we have been discussing this for quiet a few turns. We even planned for the first chariot to cycle away and give the Inca a chance to forget that it existed.

[Dreylin]

Wow, that's a worse attack than I've run!

So what happened with your Warrior semi-attack at their Cap?

[Reagan]

Gamey? You tell me!

absolutely

[Ruff_Hi]

Wow, that's a worse attack than I've run!

Obviously, the Ottomans want to take out Inca so thay don't have to share Aztec land with them

So what happened with your Warrior semi-attack at their Cap?

Never got off the ground. I had a 1 in 200 chance on a Q and then they whipped an axe. I bugged out and told the HRE not to bother. At least I made them whip early. At least that is what I am telling myself.

Thanks for the update, Ruff! Picture #2 sure looks a lot better for you than picture #1. Keep up the good fight!
