    I believe the northern Galleys will be finishing assembling at Beta this turn... I'd rather keep them all together, there, than send them west piecemeal. Next rurn we can figure out where to send them. (Thinking ahead, as a threat during negotiation, we may want to show GoW a screenshot of the Galleys once they are in place next to the YK mountain).

    What time are you going home? I have a cocktail party at 6:30pm, and probably won't be home and able to play the save until around 8:30pm. Do you want to play it?

      Good point in terms of keeping our options open, in terms of both what to build and where to land.
      How GoW react to diplomacy is also likely to affect what to do about building.

      If people think it's a good idea I'd like to start pushing MZ for his initial reaction to Theseus' message... We could really do with knowing where things stand sooner rather than later.
      Are we having fun yet?

        Theseus,

        If you can play it, I'd appreciate it. I will do it I must, but as I mentioned I'm totally exhausted and I'd just rather not deal with it.

        p.s. Woah, I just noticed... are we way over the 24 hour limit? ****e.

          I'll play it, and send our apologies.

          I'll post when I am about to play... prolly around 8pm EST or a little later.

            OK, I am home a little later than I thought, but I'm now going to go ahead with the turn. I will take my time with it (like last turn), and try to post what is going on as I go, providing opportunities for commentary.

            I'll try to get screenies / reporting up as well.

            Also, if I can get to it before sleep, I'm gonna jazz things up diplomatically.

              Before I start, here is what I believe:

              * ND and GoW have had BAD production from the start... even though they are each in their GAs, the bulk of their forces are committed to the southern conflict. My gut tells me ND has 10+ AWs in the local theatre, and GoW a bit less.

              * Lego is ON Bob... whether to assist in the protection of GoW, or to participate in a GoWian backstab of ND, this must be a meaningful force... figure Knights, at least 5 or 6, somewhere along the GoW/ND border and moving towards the east with an ROP.

              * Vox is not on Bob... yet. Expect something somewhere to contribute... maybe the GoW island?

              * Somebody tell me if I'm wrong, but the RP stack at Alamo8 should be able to see Alamo1... where's the ND stack? I'll tell you where... Merida and Essigbar.

              * Our northern forces need the flexibility to go after GoW or ND, depending on diplo.

              Here I go...

                Also, I'm going to shoot a quick PM to Arenlos first... see the RP diplo thread.

                  Guys, I know a bunch of you are on-line and on 'poly... I'm sending out the PMs and playing the turn in about 15 minutes.

                    Finally playing the turn.

                    Spain offers WM... I don;t remember this going on at all, but it makes sense, so I offer our WM back and accept.

                      All,

                      I am just doing the turn and getting it off. So be it.

                        Sorry, didn't finish last night... had to sleep. I'm playing from the office via GoToMyPC...

                        WE HAVE A PROBLEM, HOUSTON. There are only 4 Galleys in the northern sea. I don't know what happened. I've loaded 6 K onto 3 of the 4 Galleys by Beta.

                        I loaded 8 K onto the Galleys near OG, and was able to send 2 back towards Sirocco.

                        At Barc4441, we have 12 K, 5 MedInf, 5 Pike, 1 Cat, and 4 Workers.

                        I changed all of those Pike builds to Knights or Galleys.

                        GoW stack at Alamo6 consists of 5 Riders and 8 Cats.

                        Sorry, no screenshots.

                          OOPS, sorry, didn't post these notes... re-read the previous post AFTER reading this:

                          PRODUCTION:

                          EotS: Horse, change to Pike.
                          Cyclone: Warrior, change to Pike.
                          D-ville: Warrior, change to Pike.
                          Tornado: WC, change to Pike.
                          Arashi: Knight, change to Pike.
                          Sandstorm: Settler, change to Pike.
                          HH: Spear, change to Pike.
                          Beta: Spear, change to Pike.
                          Whirlwind: WC, change to Pike.
                          Blizzard: Horse, change to Pike.

                          Note: All those Pikes are placeholders while figure out what we actually want to build. This is REALLY important... I am not good at economy and short-builds and such (well, I'm decent, but some of the team are MASTERS... HELP??!!).

                          UNIT MOVES
                          * Pike, MedInf and Cat that had last turn landed in Sirocco are moved to Barc4.
                          * Southern units except 2 are moved to Fort Liberation at Barc4441. FLib now has 5 Pike, 1 Cat, 5 MedInf, and 12 Knights.
                          * 2 Knights at Essigbar9 fortify.
                          * Pike at Toledo9 fortifies. Worker there roads.
                          * WC at OG77 unloads.
                          * Workers - Misc

                            Theseus, if I'd realized it was going to be that difficult for you to play the save, like I said, I would have done it.

                                You know, I didn't look too carefully, but how many were we supposed to have? Are you sure some aren't in a city and maybe got accidently fortified there so you wouldn't notice them unless you looked inside?

                                To be honest, I lost track of how many we had, so when I looked at the save, I didn't notice anything was amiss.
