About Spain...

[WilliamOsborne]

WAR!

Provided that we actually do have our own island, I would favour war quickly!

WAR!!! BWAHAHAHAHA!!!! SLAUGHTER THE SPANISH.....

Take what they will not give us!

[cough]

And er.. yeah. Definitely war. Unless we find an easier target on land.

- Will

hi ,

after CB we can ask them for the alfabet , if they dont want to give it , ........


but no , why declare war , they cant touch us for now and sooner or later they are going to want to declare war on us , .....

why waste our time , let them declare war when they want , ......

have a nice day

I voted for war in this age because of sheer proximity, but it may have to wait for the next age if there are closer targets to confront in the present age.

Eh, you don't think that is too early for talking of war??.. let's wait for more turns and see what our future.. then war

It's a little too early to start talking about war, for reasons the others have said. So I'll abstain from this poll.

I really think we should wait until we have completed a military unit before we plan a war, 'cause right now that single barb warrior could destroy our race!!!

Lets expand and develop our own land first, settle all the good spots and build up a little infrastructure. When we have the means to train and deploy a proper army then we start getting demanding with the Spanish. There's no point in going to war without a good reason -at least more than just because they are there!! Above all if we do war we want it to be brief and decisive not drain our resourses for centuries - especially not if this is an archipelago map, we will be in slow tech hell.

Lets get some longboats built asap and find out where we are in the world and settle all we can before the AI does. Then we will be well placed to dominate the world with Berzerker's!!!

In the poll, abstein is the same as "banana"

Banana for me, too.

The fact that Spain is there is plenty reason to go to war with them. While we sit back and settle open land and build improvements Spain will be getting stronger and stronger. (and our eventual war with them will get longer and longer) Early war need not be a drain on resources, as long as we're winning we'll be able to end it any time we choose.

Taking enemy cities can be a more efficient method of expansion than settling open territory. You don't have to build settlers, you should get some improved terrain and freebie workers, and (in this case) we want that low corruption land next to our capital.

Of course, if there's an eaisier target on our island it should be they who fall first.

I thought you and Togas weren't supposed to help make decisions since you made the map? Is this advice from the world makers? If so, we should listen to them since they know where all the resources and other civs are at.

I don't think BigFree helped to make the map... I thought it was Togas and BigFurryMonster that made it.

It was those two. BigFree is the SMC so he can certainly help decide our course of action.
