Jackpot.
20 knights, 1 musket and 6 cats on the tile 3 of Marblehead. I can unload cannon in Marblehead and hit the stack. I'll lose a couple but only teh C2 knights (and the C4 knight) get odds against cannon.

Not 100% certain how to proceed from here. I tried to kill the cats with flanking but came up 1 knight short, that is why there is one last cat left alive.
I want to load up some of the health units and move on to the next city, dumping the units outside next turn. But Boston or Lynn? I can dump a medic 1 explorer into Marblehead this turn or next.

novice, this is the point where I want to hear your thoughts on what to do. Doesn't mean I'm going to do any of it but it'll be helpful to blame you when things go wrong. But for now I'm logging out and I'll finish the turn after work tomorrow.

Interesting use of a general on "knight"...

Is Cambridge Ruff's easternmost city? If so I think we should try to rush it, i.e. go for Lynn next.
I'm going to be that definitive so that you can safely blame me when things go wrong.
Now go ahead and do whatever you were planning to do all along.
...but also we should try to time our offensive so that we have a suitable defensive location to bomb when our next Great Artist arrives.
I have to run.

Had to run some research builds, but we get Corp eot T189 with less than 10 gold in the bank. I'm going to start building a new frigate stack next to dtay and offer him peace again in a few turns when I've got a large enough number to safely enter his waters.
I've positioned the galleons 47 of Marblehead, they can deploy 6 cannon and about 18 units, some damaged next to either Boston or Lynn this turn. Marblehead is defended by 8 muskets, 6 of which are full health and a few weak units that need to heal. Ruff could attack Marblehead this turn but I doubt it: leaving that stack where he did I don't see him leaving an additional 10 knights just out of reach in the fog.
Cambridge is just to the west of the midway point in Ruffs empire. I do not really care much for the cities beyond Cambridge but without Cambridge it would be very hard to defend this land area. I want to ensure we have sufficient units to control the area around Cambridge but that's impossible because we would need a large number of rifles to do so. BGN has not made any moves to attack Ruff at Cambridge but I can't comment on land further east.
