Turn 135, 130 AD

[zeit]

Military movements: I suggest we let the 2 knights near B heal on the hill (hey, that rhymes! ), move the rest of the stack 4. That is unless we want to use those units to set the perimeter NYE suggested. I think we should push onwards with those units, and create some pressure on GoW's units in the area, by the time they get there (3-4 turns), RP and us will be ready to send some forces against S from the other side, and perhaps finally out manuever GoW (that is, if they stay there ).

[Shiber]

Great Nathan, thanks!
Guys: how many workers do we want to load to Bob during the next set of turns? Will the ones from Cyclone and Bolderberg-9 do?

Zeit: I don't have the save in front of me. If we move to B-44, can we keep the slowmovers cover? If so, I like it.
The knights returning from the area of Toledo can defend the area of NM or reinforce Pamplona.

Shall I send a single vet medinf to kill the barb warrior and destroy his camp? I remind you that we're on chieftain and we have the GW, so one medinf should be enough even if more warriors pop out of that camp. We can also keep that medinf around in the FoW'ed jungle in case more barbs show up to threaten Toledo (but I'd still like to reconnect the mountain road to Toledo before we give it back).

That camp was already destroyed- perhaps we could catch whoever did it... or maybe not.

The knights near B- I think we should let them heal, or something, unless of course we feel they are at any risk on while staying on that hill without cover (I don't think so, but still).

I'd also say a yes to moving the knights near P- the reinforcements from Stormia could handle the defence perimiter NYE suggested, but in the meantime, we need more forces, mainly fast movers around Pamplona, if we want any chance of counter attack some time soon.

[Shiber]

We've already used up our 24 hours.
I need someone else to play the turn. I'm not so fit to play it at the moment... sorry.

[notyoueither]

We'll get it done, Shiber. Take care of yourself.

[Shiber]

Thanks.
But nevermind, I'll get over it. Loading up PtW...

[Shiber]

I've changed my mind again
I don't think I can go on. NYE or someone else, please take it from here.
I'm sorry guys. RL is hectic and my head is spinning. I wish my day had a few extra hours.

[notyoueither]

OK. This is what I propose to do with the units in the active theatre.

2p fm P 9 9 6 to P 9 6
1p fm P 6 6 to P 9 6
1p fm P 6 6 to P 6 3
4c fm T 2 2 to NM 1 OR P 9 6

5k fm NM 2 to NM 1 (can counter-a at barca 4 or join knights by Pamplona)

Barca army fortifies

2p, 1c fm Barca 8 to Barca army and fortify

mi fm z 6 6 to z 6 6 6

p on T 8 9 fortify

p and mi fm Toledo move 8

p and mi fm Toledo move 6

Knights near Pamplona?

[Theseus]

Why put units in the jungle north of Toledo?

Can we put some kind of threat at Valencia88?

Gimme a sec on the Knights at Pamplona...

[Theseus]

Re the Knights... is there a logical spot to the west/south of Pamplona that:
* keeps us on friendly roads
* is a mountain, hill, or jungle
* positions us to assist in the defense of Pamplona, scoot back north and east if need be, and threatens (or seems to) enemy cities or forces?

(sorry, hard to tell from screenshots)

Why put units in the jungle north of Toledo?

ND may be taking a pop at our pike on the mountain. Would like to have a surprise waiting for them if they get lucky.

[Theseus]

Wouldn't they then equally have a shot at our jungle troops?

[notyoueither]

Can we put some kind of threat at Valencia88?

We have 2 wounded knights.

Are they going to settle in down south, or concentrate around Pamplona?

We could better take the coastal cities by boat, yes?

No. They have an mi 8 of the mountain. We have a pike on the mountain. The pike and mi would be 1 of the mountain.

yes to your first 2 points. NM 1. It does not threaten any enemy cities though.

Are you getting the save?
