Bah. Haven't played pitboss for so long; forgot that units won't complete when I end turn, so that'll cost me dearly.

But they made a strategic mistake in razing REM's city, so I've managed to induce a copper trade from REM.

Centuries hence, they will tell of the courageous sailors who sank the Terror of the Seven Seas, the Flying Dutchman.




But those brave men espy something worse: the doom of their civilisation



All is lost. Napoleon has met his Waterloo, and there only remains exile to a small, deserted island.

But seriously? 19 +2 chariots, and 5 galleys. 880 hammers. Well, it better be worth it for them..

Normal galley vs galley with coastal defence. So 32%.

Together with the earlier combat III chariot I killed, essentially I've killed off metra's 1st GG. So most likely it's ipecac delenda est.

bang

But still worth it.

So my neighbours and erstwhile competitors who would normally want to see me dead have both sent me copper because metra made enemy out of both of them. There's probably a better way to invade another continent than declaring war on everyone on it. I don't even crazyeye

Anyhoo, meanwhile I'm whipping spears.

Interturn: 2 defending Spears killed 4 chariots before falling and another city is razed.

This turn: killed another 2 chariots so far hammer

It's still rather depressing so I'm not planning to upload any shots or go into tactical discussions unless any lurkers ask.

I know, spoilers and all, but I would love to see an explanation why metra is fighting wars on two continents in the ancient era.

Lurkers: are city trades for peace allowed? It's not very clear, so what say you?
