 scooter, you got a little over-excited. Commodore hadn't ended turn when you put up those pics. He just ended turn 20 min ago. Here's where we're at: ![[Image: pb8%20-%20turn228%20-%20fleet.jpg?raw=1]](https://www.dropbox.com/s/obzku1683ou1f5r/pb8%20-%20turn228%20-%20fleet.jpg?raw=1) He deleted all the surviving knights and the GG mace, and loaded up all the 1-movers into galleons. Now he's going to try to fork Sid's & KFC. But we know exactly what's on those boats now: there are 9 muskets, 6 elephants, 2 macemen, and 2 catapults that can't attack off boats. Here's the thing that kills me. He won almost every battle at the end. Why didn't he stop attacking when he realized he would be short of attackers?  Anyway, we can cover both cities from amphibious attacks easy. We have 31 knights. He isn't going to boat us with 15 knights in each city. But this also gives us an opportunity. To do something.... a little crazy.

Okay, so Commodore has Galleons headed back already, probably to pick up fresh rifles. When those rifles come it's largely game over. And I don't feel like holding on by spamming frigates to try to intercept his rifles coming across the bay.
Anyway, I think we move like this: ![[Image: pb8%20-%20turn228%20-%20t228plan.jpg?raw=1]](https://www.dropbox.com/s/haswlq0uckviljm/pb8%20-%20turn228%20-%20t228plan.jpg?raw=1) We can get 8 frigates and all 12 galleons onto that tile. That's about even to what he has, actually. If he moves south to go after Culver's then we have a decision - we can keep playing defense. Or we can run west and try to raze a city or two. Go out with a bang rather than a slow whimper.

Didn't mean to ignore this - we got talking about this briefly by chat - this blew me away. Sure our thread gets a little spammy from time to time, although personally I think the Great Fast Food Debates were suuuuuuper crucial . Anyway, it got me curious about screenshots. I have over 700 I've posted in my PB8 dropbox folder alone, and Pindicator has around 300 of his own. So at some point very recently we crossed the 1K screenshot plateau as well. That's just short of .5 screenshots per post, which I like to think is pretty solid content-wise since 1,000 of the posts came from somebody other than pindicator or myself (mostly one-sentence Noble posts, hah). Crazy game. Really curious to see how Commodore reacts to the boats. I think he just backs away slowly. Either way, this is definitely the most flexible move we can make.
