It could work I guess, but we'd still be eating amphibious attack penalty no ?

I think the idea is that we create a Fort in our territory next to TOS, sail the Galleons into the Fort, unload the troops and then hit without the amphib penalty.
Worth a try; it's not like we have a lot for those Workers to do. (doubt he'll let us finish it, but worth a try)

Al got his first Cavalrys. I hope he uses his lots of gold to upgrade as many cuirs as possible and then strike, I think THH is just 1-2 turns behind. Also, THH seems to be spending EP on us now, as we are losing the complete vision we were having on our former lands.
Also, this turn we researched PP and then spawned our second GS. That sucks a lot, since now the bulb target is SM, which we don't want by any means because of TGL/ToA. So what to do with these guys? Save them for a hypothetical distant date when we want to research SM? The other options would be settling one more in Pfeffi, or academy in GD. I'll have to see what that means in terms of bpt (keeping in mind that the academy only works when the slider is set, while the settled GS is always productive with +200% multiplier).
And I sent the workers onto the hill at ToS, let's see how it turns out. I actually hope war breaks out before the fort finishes, if we are allowed to build it.
Oh and Mardoc founded Christianity and Islam recently and I think he also built UoS. Might as well have some fun

Of course the GS debacle could have been avoiided by just a little planning ahead, but it seems I'm past that point, regarding civ in general. Lost adventure 62 for that reason. Now I'm playing the giant FFH2 scenario against 4 sheaims with no healing... Went for RoK because the evident Order felt just wrong (heck, I'm supposed to be a pirate)... But now I'm getting aware that I'll never get healing that way, cause no gems, so it seems I'll have to find our how changing the whole game plan on t165 works out. Maybe I can take at least Empyrean, to not destroy the roleplaying completely, but the Order goodies seem just so much better. Also just lost my first mainland plant attempt because I didn't know how PZ are really unfair. (Moreso of course because no healing).. I'm posting all that here because I saw some old posts of Dreylin's on CFC debating that scenario. Well, if it can take 500 turns I might be able to achieve something.
Also of course no golems because how was I supposed to know that I shouldn't kill the weakest opponent in that other scenario??

SM sucks unless you want to win the game. Settling is probably the way.

Oh wow, that was a while ago ... can't really remember what I did (probably went Order) just that it was a massive painful slog until everything got rolling.

Four years ago... But judging by the photo in your avatar you already had that same hairstyle
