Well they annoyed me realy hard and becaue of that even they deserved to win the game will loose it.

They were asking for my beatiful city of Parsalos many times.Last turn after seeing that i have guilds they asked just 2 gold per turn, what a shock but peace its not an option.

Novice, Spaceman and Seven after game its finish you have to know that your biggest mistake was to realy anoy me, you could have me like a friend and now i was starting a crusade against Luddite ,he pinkdoted me 10 times worse than my Parsalos on your side.


Well for peace i asked from them 80 gol 17 gold per turn and a city. Why i done that?

Well i have knigs and my power is bigger and i will have engeneriing next turn.

i realy have no chanses to win the game if i go after Nospa will be abloody bath but this will make them to loose the ground.
Who will be the winner ? Luddite of course he has many cities, Fierce is his neighbour...

The atack plan?well in 5 turns from now i will have 25 knigs in pozition to enter in nospa teritory, if i road a certai forest i can lunch an atack rigth to a city.

So the plan is simple do as much damage to the Nospa becasue they played all the game agains me.They got galeons to harass me no one else...

And about me beeing between Nospa and luddite: I consider that this game doesn't show the skill to much, i got 2 neighbours wich where very fast expanding, and Luditte and Seven got 1 slow(when i had 6 cities Yuri and fierce had 3) if i had fierce for neighbour..., with Yurii its a litle bit harder but if nospa didnt declare on me i would consider to atck them just after Ludite was eliminated.

So yeah, no chanse for me to win, but i will have fun(I dont know which i like more to win or have funrolleye)

I will, a second i was afraid that they would accept my demand.If i was them i woulld accepted, becasue for sure in 10 turns they can get gunpowser and military tradition if the were left alone and i would find my self with a large army and whiped cities.Well they didn't accepted but researched construction after that i think 2 turns for enginerring and they will start some pikes.

I will burn they lands destroy improvments and of course i will keep slaving my cities so i can get lots od knigs in their lands.

I supose luditte will go after fierce too so will gain alot of land so even second place will be not avaible for me but i will show to Nospa team that 'choose wrong'.

<Alex Trebek> Judges, is that close enough?
<Judgesa> Hell yeah!

Mackoti, you have awakened the spirit of the ancients! NS7 has Chosen Unwisely indeed! The RNG gods will smile upon you in the coming battles!

i agree, they should have taken the deal.

Prelude to Invasion

The Greek Armed forces are gearing up for a hot war:

That's a total of eight knights completing in the coming turns, in addition to those already in the field. The strike is not due for three more turns, with Greek forces still moving north to get into position for the attack.

The Greek armies in the north are hunkered down in the city of Pharsalos

[Image: TheBorder.png]

The city is staffed by 2 macemen, 3 phalanxes and an archer. Hiding in the jungles southwest of the city are the knights that have arrived the front. The tile is invisible to NS7 and will be used as a staging point for the blitz.

The two Egyptian border cities are only lightly guarded.

Meanwhile, to the northwest, the Egyptian and Greek fleets continue their game of cat and mouse.

well, I have 17 knights
8 crossbows

I will harass them

what's the trap?
[COLOR="DeepSkyBlue"]I have eight caravels
ready to do some sinking
and three more coming from behind
so they can't run
if some of their galleons remain[/COLOR]

There are eight Greek caravels opposing five Egyptian galleons and one caravel, with three more on the way. Mack intends to wrest control of the sea from the Egyptians to end the threat to his coastal cities and make the supply lines for the invasion safe.

What should i do?
Reply

I and a couple of others have said what we would be inclined to do in the lurker thread for you to read after the game. I don't think it is fair for us to post those thoughts here as they may influence you. tongue

Good luck though!

I don't think its breaking the lurker code to indicate that I, speaking on behalf of all lurkers everywhere, think peace is for sissies. wink
