          I agree with attacking them now IF we are going to attack them. If they get their GA it could be a longer war.

          Another thing to consider, France could get involved with a war with someone else if they get musketeers, get a GA, and, depending on the opponent, could still get out of it w/o losing any cities. Thoughts on consequences of this (if it happens)?

            This is what is comes down to:


            1. Attack the Frence RIGHT NOW

            2. or wait for a VERY LONG TIME

            I currently don't know exacly which side i'm on. Probably leaning towards waiting.

                An attack is imminent to be sure. It's basically timing at the moment, and I understand Reddawg's unsure attitude towards this; we want to make this a limited operation, probably with the goal of saltpeter and iron and one or two border towns to be included in the package.

                The only issue that I have difficulties with are alliances against us. I'm sure we all understand that this would spell trouble for us, so my question is What can we do to prevent multiple alliances from crushing us once we war with France?

                  Simple:

                  1. Get them on our side
                  or
                  2. Don't go to war

                    I like the idea of selling France technology before the war, thus taking most of their bargaining chips for later, and then declaring war. That will make it so difficult for them that no ally would get anything out of it, except the possibility of grabbing some of OUR land. But that's not likely to happen...

                      They don't have any bargaining chips. They WM sucks and they aren't willing to pay GPT for tech.

                        And that's a position we should definitely have them in by the time we go to war, say the turn right before...

                        Without a doubt, war with France is a win-win situation. We gain so much more than what we might lose. Once we defeat the French, an extended period of building and cultural advances. By that time, no one could challenge us. Once we've cleared the jungle and an 'industrial revolution' can occur, we will be unbeatable.
