Does the half health ship have a promotion?

I'm wondering if they are preparing a defense against us, thinking we are bringing everything to them (rather than Portugal), that the biremes are moving in as fast as they can, and the galleys are just trying to cover and bait out a war dec for the culture, and slow a zerg rush of the capital. I know we are limited in this area due to resources, but how much should we push them? Same question you make about scouting actually, I think we have to push them a bit, and loss of a single boat might not be that bad.

I don't want to risk the Helmsman either, more thinking how to push it forward safely onto ocean tiles.

I agree, even that number might be a few too much to spare to AbtS.
But there is more to being offensive than the rush, and I agree that we can't put pressure on the CS, so I think we want to push a boat or two forward to try and bait the war dec as you said, but possibly keep them to the ocean (so safe) but where the can threaten the resource and district pillages (I believe from the ocean the Helmsman can move one tile then pillage a district?)

Good plan. Does this involve moving the unpromoted ship 663 to the crab (look at what is uncovered then move to safety or the ocean?)
Just thinking that this move might uncover a small flotilla and then the Embolon ship needs to be pulled back.

Whatever gets the most health on the boat by the time we need it is the right move IMO. What is it at now, 50?

Yeah, if we need it next turn it's better to heal in place now, the 2hp is a fair cost.
I thought only healed 15 in culture, 20 in a city? but that is a hold over from other games I suppose. Learn something new everyday.

There are only so many cities as well, simpler is better as complexity doesn't help, just adds micro.

Can you pillage a tile and attack in the same turn?
Went with the warrior BTW at Uruk.

The slinger would only be of use if we wanted a unit we could upgrade IMO but would be of limited use in grabbing barb camps for goody hut bonuses. I reckon the slight increase in cost for another warrior is worth it.
However uruk already has hammers invested in a monument so how much closer would we be to finishing it? I imagine still 20 production or so?
