Minister of war reports 1300Bc

[Hydey]

Our current army consists of:
2 x Settlers (1 none)
7 x Warriors all fortied in cities for defence and martial law.
2 x Phalanx both fortified in cities for defence and martial law.
5 x Archers (1 none) 2 fortied in cities and 3 out exploring.
3 x Horsemen all out exploring
1 x Chariot wandering around near our cities
1 x Explorer exploring

The best attacking units we can build at the moment are the Legion (4,2,1) or the Chariot (3,1,2) and our best defenders are the Phalanx.
we can also build diplomats for embasies and explorers for exploring.

If the people want us to go to war then I ask that we build some barracks to train our troops in, this will give us the edge in battle with veterans.

I think we should try to get more information about the AI before declaring any wars (finding cities etc)

We know the 2 civs we have met so far cannot build any troops that we cannot, this is good.

I believe that we should open all huts that we come across as our tech rate will be crap all game so we may as well get anything good from huts that we can. (provided that any unit gaining will not cause a support shortage in our cities)

Glorificus size 2 (size 3 next turn) supporting a warrior and archer fortied in city and an explorer who has met the Japanese.cost (1 shield) This is the nearest city to the japanese so needs to be defended until we wipe them out of the game.

Lets push for the poor man's Invention by popping huts.

If push comes to shove, we can disband some of the units we get, rather than not popping the hut.

[atawa]

Pop all huts.

And please equip another couple of explorer party's, we could probably get up to Mono with 0% sience

[Bob_Smurf42]

More barracks, settlers, explorers, and attackers. take any huts you find, there should be plenty. Our science sucks anyway and we can disband any support problems, so it doesn't matter.

[Zedd]

Finnished.
Nice poll Hydey, lots of options and easy to follow.
Now here are my votes,
1.Pop all huts, We need any science we can get and maybe we will have a few attack units or NON's
2.More explorers to quickly find the location of our targets, I mean neighbors.
3. No more defenders, what we don't have allready we will get from huts.
4. More attackers, see answer #2
5. No diplo's, we don't need them as of now but we could maybe steel some techs later.
6.More settlers, If some worker wants to stir up trouble then stick some tools in his hands and set him out to build roads, It is better to have a 5 settlers than 5 elvi IMO.

[War4ever]

yup good stuff Hydey....

[Hydey]

Ok, poll closed and the results seem fairly obvious

The people have voted that we open any and all huts that we find .

The have asked that we construct 1 or 2 Barracks to train veteran troops in.
I ask the minister of city planning take note of that. and also that the people request more Settlers,Diplomats and attacking units rather than explorers or defenders.

I may not personnally agree with all these results but it is my duty to report what the people request.

Thanks for the PM Hydey.
