Honestly I don't think your galley stack will be able to kill a destroyer and two frigates.

Second attempt at showing the futility of galley v DD combat. Barb DD promoted to C1 to overcome the -10% barb combat odds.
I think SD might be onto something

WELL, it was for pure fun/curiosity. BUT Gavagai apparently declared war on me. (pm'd me) So, im borderline just going to bow out of this PB. This is basically nothing but an absolute douchebag move. He doesnt take out more piccadilly, so i cant advance there. SO i try and have some fun since i have 0% chance of winning or even placing. So what does this cockgobbler do?
Yeah, im done. He is a piece of shit. So spiteful that i cant have a lick of fun. Find someone else to play my turns or turn me into an ai. At this point, i dont care. Fuck Gavagai. Im out of this PB.
For more "fun"
Greenline (bless his soul for getting daddy to come to his rescue) won EVERY SINGLE 79.3% fight with his stack of caravels. Sigh.

Without giving too much away I can assure you that Gav is not being a dick and has good reasons for what he is doing. You signed up and should continue playing.

Fine. ill continue playing. Whatever his reasons, i cannot fathom why having Greenline alive or not matters. Greenline isnt going to recapture his former territory from Picca. If he did, i would have attacked anyway like i had been planning on WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY back when people were still expanding. Im in a sour mood, but Gav is, and will always be a dick. The way he talks in his threads, specifically about me has always been extremely negative. I dont WANT to add him to the list of people i will not play with again (plemo) but the way he has been in every PB ive played with him suggests he holds some sort of petty grudge towards me.

If he transports MORE units in/moves them to Greenlines northern city (that cannot touch piccadilly, and he is already protecting the city that would have any impact WITH MACHINE GUNS) AND then continues along my coast.. Then i have to conclude that he is playing the game against the "dont be a dick" rule, and kindly ask for a sub(scooter?) or just convert to ai. I cant follow his logic. He has the game in the bag. Conquer piccadilly, conquer me, ???? profit. All i wanted was a little fun before i went out. But he can eat the biggest bag of donkey dicks. Im not going to spite burn all my improvements to the ground like Piccadilly has done, but with his kind of behavior i was tempted.
