An alliance with England.

I doubt it we can take Berlin when most of our forces are still in France.
And don't forget: Berlin is a capital, AND it's a city (8 population) which gives the units defending it a 100% defensive bonus! A fortified spearman inside Berlin has 4.5 defense.
No, there's absolutely no way we can take Berlin in this war.

hi ,

well it could be done , we need to remove units , starve them a bit , .... it shall work if we focus on it , ...

but that is not the main goal now , .....

Just to momentarially jump back onto topic, I agree that there should be no alience at least until we see what the first few turns of war brings. Also, this decision would be in the hands of the Foreign Ministry, and Togas just posted a press release in our office thread saying that he does not plan on signing a military allience at this time as well.

Fully agree, Hamburg and sign the Peace Treaty while we're still putting out the fire.............

In other words, get Hamburg and sign a peace treaty immediately before the German war machine gears up!

Won't somebody PLEASE think of the Children!!!!!

[Robber Baron]

Yer right, rendelnep. The children....
I'm thinking German children might be useful as houseslaves, for dusting and setting the table and such. And we could use the Persian wee ones as banana peelers.

How much money have the French now? I mean, could they bribe another civ, like Greeks or English, against us?

[Shiber]

The French are probably broke by now. I think they offered all their money and a lot of gpt to Persia and Germany.
I'm not worried that French will drag more allies into this war. I'm worried that Persia and Germany will.

indeed we should wait a bit and get out nation together again before we go after anyone again , ...

so that Uber can use more advanced armies , ....

I think Eng. might get creamed in its war with Greece.

The Stats report shows the English have no money (and they missed out on a wonder). The war is in their territory. How much help will the Aztecs give them?

Even before the current situation developed, I thought we shouldn't take on Greece (leave it till the middle ages, when we have Knights). Now, we would have a 4-front(!) war, not a good idea.

IF we beat France, Germany and Persia quickly AND it seems like England will be badly beaten we should consider helping them out, however, otherwise Greece may become unstoppable. But we couldn't get too committed, b'cos Germany and Persia are likely to be itching for revenge if we give them any chance.

I like panag's philosophy on advancing our military technology.

[Torkkeli]

No need to ally with anyone, we will manage on our own!

What is it?

[MrWhereItsAt]

A new development:

Germany and Greece have signed an alliance against the Aztecs. This is cause for concern....

[Shiber]

Planning ahead in the political arena is becoming impossible!!

At least this would have one positive outcome: Germany will be more prune to sign a peace treaty with us.
