Gaspar, Lewwyn, et al go full Sartre

[Ichabod]

By the way, the link from the picture led me to a C&H themed Werewolf game in the mafiascum forums. I need to host one of those someday.

I must say - after all the varieties of taunting, the fact that I got this turn made it incredibly tempting to road the horses as a giant Eff You... but around here, we follow orders or people die.



The lion attacked our warrior on the desert hil and...



Flawless victory. Finally someone can kill a lion around here.

Unfortunately, that was the end of good news involving warriors. First in the south, we got an unwelcome visitor:



We'll have great odds of course, but still.

The worse news is that we need Chariots yesterday...




Note the woodsman promo. If he comes and sits on the forested hill, we're going to need an Axe to extricate him. It also makes me think we might need to prioritize settling that double fish spot, since there's an excellent chance that's what he's coming over to prevent. Nonetheless, there's pretty much zero chance he's bringing that guy over to do anything other than harass.

Anyway, BW in 3t, hopefully copper is on the grass hill at Valhalla and new worker will be able to hook it quickly.

Just a quick report for 41. The new warrior in Eden moved out to the forest. If dtay moves to the grassland tile, we attack - we can crash build the warrior in Eden if we lose it somehow. Hopefully the sight of the warrior will get him to change his mind and turn around, but I doubt it.




We plant the 3rd city next turn - anyone have any votes on the name? Favorite mythological city?

Fuller report next turn. I'm guessing the revolt is TBS. Pindicator is already in slavery - he 2-whipped this turn.

[Lewwyn]

TBS hasn't played the turn yet so he can't be the one revolting.


BTW The game gave Gaspar's red site the blue circle.


Just FYI too, if dtay double moves towards us, we're asking for a reload because if he moves one tile towards us next turn we're declaring war and either attacking his warrior or we're moving to the plains hill to block him from moving there from the grass hill. If he double moves away from us then we'd be okay with that.

[Lewwyn]

TBS just played so dtay will be playing last. Everytime he's played last he's double moved. I hope he understands the current situation.

Simmer down, son.

I'm not expecting much, personally.

Decided not to finish the turn, in case Lewwyn has some input. Dtay healed in place with warrior and it is now at full health. Man I really wish we settled for the faster horses right now. Anyway, I did execute a few of the things. I settled our third city, Cockaigne mostly so everytime I see it, I can shorten the name and think of ways to insult Lewwyn.




Exploration in the west revealed Sheep and Deer.




While exporation in the south revealed Cows.




I didn't deal with Nessie in the north or the tile assignments. In the picture you see a Granary in Cockaigne but I swapped that to a warrior afterwards because I figured we could send it to the capital for MP while Valhalla finishes its own Granary since whipping is on the horizon. Mostly I didn't do these things because Lewwyn spent a lot of time last turn figuring out the short term micro but then didn't tell me what that was. I think we move 1 east to the PH with the warrior but I'll wait for others to chime in. I didn't take a picture because it looks literally exactly the same as it did last turn.

Beyond that, we need to decide where the next city goes. While Clams is the obvious answer since it gets going fastest and is the natural circular growth option we have two other considerations. Firstly, where is copper? If we haven't already settled for it, there's no question the fourth site is for wherever it is. If we have it already, we should consider settling the 2x fish spot where dtay's warrior is currently. If that's the case, we'll need to do another worker in Eden in addition to some military. It will be much slower than Clams and it is possible we can do both concurrently with Gems being the sixth site. We'll need to discuss micro, I think, but probably we should just wait until next turn and see where copper is. Regardless, I can't imagine a scenario where the next two techs aren't Fishing and Writing, but I'm open to input.

I went global troll, by the way.

I can still help, though. If you need names for units, here's some from brazilian folklore:

- Curupira
- Boitata
- Boto Cor-de-Rosa (or just Boto)
- Cuca
- Boi da Cara Preta
- Caipora
- Iara
- Saci Pererê
- Mula Sem Cabeça

After I posted a C&H strip and everything?!
