Dreylin goes big or goes home [spoilers]

[Sarmatian]

Looks good. Not much to discuss about at the moment, everything is pretty straightforward.

Unexplored east is hell of itch that can't be scratched at the moment. It would be very nice to know what lurks over there in the darkness.

I know. Also South and North! Probably gonna have to wait for Horsemen to go more than a few tiles though.

On the bright side, Capital Border pop will show us some new tiles to the West and South in 5t.

The Bear appears:


If it moves onto the flatland, I'll consolidate on the forest hill and let it hit the Warriors and kill on counter. If it moves onto the Hill, I'll withdraw for now. (Animals get Defensive bonuses, right?)

[Sarmatian]

AFAIK, animals don't get defensive bonuses, but better to check with someone more knowledgeable or test it.

[Dreylin]

I'm pretty certain that's true in base CIV, just not sure if FFH2 changed it. Well if it advances onto the hill next turn I'll be able to check.

No Defensive bonus, but I ran some sims and the Bear didn't take enough damage in 6/12 for the second Warrior to get >80% odds. So I ran away for now:

Bear disappeared again so the Warrior pair remain in place:


Keeping my eyes on this guy as well.

Go for the eyes, Boo!

Some extra cash will come in handy!


Bear is still out of view ... although the Griffon is in sight again down South.
