Rheims - Can we flip it?

[zeit]

Will cutting the road connection of Rheims to the french capital make flipping easier?

[Shiber]

No, but it will increase the corruption and waste they experience slightly. Good thinking though!

But cutting the road would decrease there production and make them unable to upgrade units if they get a barracks in rheims.

I didn't think of that. Good point.

Edit: we'll have to cut a lot of roads though. IIRC we are connected to Rheims in 3 spots. This will also force us to divert a group of workers from more important tasks to rebuild these roads later.

I didn't say we should do it, in fact, i think we shouldn't as this won't help it flip, we could take Rheims and the units scattered around it fairly quickly, when the time for war comes. I am sure Aggie is drools by the very thought of crushing the surrounded forces around Rheims...

Take no prisoners!!!

By looking on the map, we would have to cut the roads on tiles 3 and 13 of Marcoss City (and France has a warrior FOTIFIED on our tile!). We would also have to cut the road on tile 20 of Port Rogue.

In order for us to even try this, we are going to have to tell the Frenchies to get off our land.
