The only way we survive this at all is to gather up all our units and attack their stacks. If our units keep getting attacked, we'll be out of this game before WPC is. This is a fair point. The main issue though isn't necessarily the potential loss of Ditchdigger, but losing its culture would be pretty painful.
FYI all: Noble says he's planning on doing an initial stream sometime tonight. Hopefully he'll give more precise times later. I believe the stream is strictly for a planning chat, no actual movements.
One comment of mine: we're fairly close to a GG. We'll likely spawn one WHILE we are attacking their Cuir stack. So if we can get it to spawn nearby, we might be able to use it to save DD with some nicely placed promotions. Does anyone know how to manipulate what city the GG spawns in?
Right, it seems like a no-brainer that we kill as much of their stuff as we can with a counterattack. If that means that ditchdigger falls, oh well, killing invaders is priority #1.
I would even say that even if it looks like we can stuff things into ditchdigger to keep it alive, if they're just going to attack those units to kill them for no cost, then even if we can stuff enough in there to keep it alive, it's better to pull those units back and save them for the next offensive.

I'm kinda worried our production can't keep up with another wave of Cuirs appears on that front. Not to mention what CFC is bringing to the party.
Speaking of CFC, does our chariot see any of their whipped units?

All right I'm really tired so the streaming is going to have to be a bit later at 11 PM EDT (100 minutes from now).

Stream finished. Please view it if you are interested. If someone would be willing to recreate the defending CivPlayers cuirassier stack (with the damaged units) and post a sim, that would be really helpful. You don't need to worry about our units, those can be placed later.

I will be streaming again most likely late afternoon tomorrow American time, in maybe 15-16 hours from now. We will need to play most of the turn then.

Just watched later part of stream. Attacking doesn't seem worth it with just 10 attackers. If we attack, we lose DD.
Just pile everything into DD. they most likely withdraw, heal and go south...But that should take them at least 5 turns. We can have Rifles by then. If they come back again at DD, fine we will deal with it...If they come through norh of DD by razing Mano, with cat support we should be able to kill 40 to 50 Cuirs they will bring in by then... We should make plans on what cities we will lose and stick with it. No point in wasting units.
