[spoilers] Pindicator and Regoarrarr - Bismark of Ethiopia

Ah, i wasn't thinking like that: good thing I didn't move the galley and you look at it. But this way if we don't lose our capital then we're sure to at least kill his galley

Well it's too late - I already moved it SW-W alright lol

a) do we move our axe to the hill at CL, and if so, do we upgrade warrior->axe
b) do we double whip an axe in Coneheads, in case he lands there

a) do we plan on attacking him in the flat? We'd have to have a 2-to-1 numbers advantage to consider doing that and I don't think we have that. So I don't think anything short of...

*light goes on*

Hey, how about we move one axe onto the pigs, then move the warrior onto the hill and upgrade it? This way he can't land the axes without doing an amphibious shot, probably at a 2-for-1 deal that we would then be able to clean up the survivor of.

b) I didn't think Coneheads had anything into an axe, just a spear & granary. I would switch it to an axe this turn and be ready to double whip next turn. If it does have some hammers into an axe already then lets wait; we can whip next turn if he lands that direction.

He'd still be able to land on the eastern grass hill, no?

True, didn't remember that bit. Then I was going to say that's where we put our archer, but then i realized said archer hasn't been built yet. So unless we have a unit that can reach that tile we probably should just keep everything in the capital.

regoarrarr, back in the good ol days Wrote:So the next few turns are big ones
* GLH t82
* 7th city T84
* ivory hooked up t86
* monotheism and hopefully Judaism t87

We are goign to attempt to get Judaism in More Cowbell, our Henge and hopefully future capital city

As you no doubt remember, Commodore attacked us ONE TURN before completing GLH, throwing 174 hammers down the drain.

Now, continuing the "missed it by one turn" motif, Azza just founded Judaism on T88.....

Oh right. We decided to put our axe at the capital on the grass hill. That way he needs to either sail past, or land on the pig. Remember that he does not know what is in our capital (or any of the terrain around it).

So for all he knows, we could be totally baiting him to his death, instead of, hypothetically, running a giant bluff yikes

We shall see where he moves.....

Oh was that not the exciting thing you were talking about? lol
