All right, it seems the timer is not delayed as much as it typically is, so we should probably make the important moves tonight rather than wait for tomorrow night (we can still make final moves then). I will be streaming at 7 PM EDT, or 85 minutes from now.

Well Ruff, it is a gamble of whether or not our stack and every single city west of the lake is worth Brick.
That being said, I'm pretty sure they are going to burn it and cover their stacks with their rifles. I suppose we could move the knight stack 1 closer if we want to hit 1 SW of BbB but that's not that useful unless we were somehow able to hold Brick.

I totally agree that it is a gamble. But can't this argument (if we defend, they revolt and kill our stack) be made with regards to every city in the west? If it can, then we need to decide where we draw the line and role the dice. I think BbB (with its SoZ) is a good place to draw the line.
I have finally decided to put down some cash and register a website. It is www.ruffhi.com. Now I remain free to move the hosting options without having to change the name of the site.

Due to how BB is positioned and how our units are positioned, the only way for us to defend it next turn is to stuff a bunch of units in the city. That does not mean that will be the only way of defending other cities which are in better locations.

If they wheel south, I'm not sure how much of a resistance we could put up with what's down there.
Edit: Can we position our units to kill the units threatening Mano if they move rifles up next turn? We don't have to retake Brick next turn, and if they are going to burn it down, then we might as well have our units do something useful since we can't catch their stacks in neutral territory.

Oh, so they didn't need those civics for their previous war, just for the next one against us. Mkay. Highly promoted cannons it is.
