[Spoilers] The Network assimilates ipecac, Ruff_Hi & Dreylin (Monty of Vikings)

[ipecac]

Here's the 'plan' to drag out this game for as long as possible :


A) The stack moves 1S onto the plains hill. We then pile everything into The Hub and hope RNG goes our way. The main alternative is to keep retreating (to 2.5", say).

B) It moves 1SW onto flat ground. Since Whosit has peace with CH we hit that stack with all our cats ~20 and try to do as much damage as possible so Whosit will pile in on Elum.

Oh, forgot to get a shot of this: Elum moved a mixed stack of ~15 rifles and muskets 1NW of Network Bridge where the fort used to be. We have enough to hold for now so he'ss bringing in catapults (has two this turn, had one 1T earlier).

Despite being dogpiled CH appears to be winning.

Looks like a city trade to Whosit.

Any update? Have we lost all our cities yet?

Any update? Have we lost all our cities yet?

For some reason Elum is taking it slow so we're just dying slowly. I'm trying to crawl towards Rifling but it looks quite unlikely especially since we've lost Colossus.

We still have 3 cities on the mainland, and the Barbstralia ones. Adrien is massing a stack on the other side of ZIF so that will make the end come faster.

I'm sad that we won't outlast Adrien.

Elum & Adrien play "Chicken" at ZIF while I evacuate some of the troops:


I deleted some of the Barbstralia Workers to save money.
