Got email from ND; they sent us these:



And here's the RP stack that I guess is E of Leon.



Also:

-GS has made a city SE-SE of New Madrid. I guess this is their harbour city thing.
-Toledo is showing fortified elite pikeman.

[Hot_Enamel]

So .. .whats ND going to do ?

Go defense, try to keep Leon and raze Zara ?

Or disband Leon, and keep Zara ?

[GhengisFarbâ„¢]

If it is showing a fortified Elite Pikeman then their big stack of units beat us to Toledo by 1 turn. Crud. One lousy turn. I don't think there is any way at all we can take Toledo now.

[Hot_Enamel]

Re ND....

I don think that stack could of all come from Zaragoza...ND sounded pretty sure they were wearing them down.

I think they have emptied their capital to protect their retreating units from Zaragoza.

I think we are seeing everything they have got.

If ND takes Zaragoza (And can therefore use their roads)
Pours every defender they have into Leon
Then moves every Ansar they have into RP territory towards Papalona.

RP cant get their units back to Papalona in time, because they are 1 tile move only and in ND territory.

ND could take Papalona !

[Panzer32]

Why would RP units 'retreat' into ND territory? It looks like an offensive manoeveur to me. I don't think it is all RP's units; I think it is their main offensive force.

But thats my opinion

[Aggie]

Well I suggest a chat for this turn, now that I hear we have it. We need to make a decision about toledo in it.

Here's the save:

http://apolyton.net/upload/files/Panzer32/Fritz_DemogyptoftheDemogyptians50AD.SAV

and with the save:

The save plus some inteligence.
Z 50 AD shows Zaragoza in our Hands.
Shirocco is an Operation to hurt their south.
50 AD Stack is the spanish Stack that aproaches Leon.
We have a lot of Troops in Leon now. we hope it will work.
This was nescesairy to prevent them from moving to fast to the north.
We belive that Toledo is nearly imposible to take now but this is your decision.
We have send you 40 bucks for the research.
We have not send an Ansar since we don't know where to send it. (Had no routes from you.)
We can use them in the south as you can see.
If you need them please tell us. we have two or three Med. Infs in the north too if need be.
If you send us a slave worker we could have him build a silk colony so you could have silk too. Good luck to you.

Aggie, are you available for a chat tonight?

[Panzer32]

to Darekill:

Just as a quick reply;

We do have to decide if we take Toledo and we will inform you of what we do decide. Right now I don't see anywhere that we could use an Ansar anyways. Also we do not need silks urgently, we need to improve our terrain more than get silks currently. Maybe a bit later we can help out.

I don't think there is any way we can take Toledo. It has to have 9+ units in it now, behind walls and these are troops FROM the GS homeland.

"The Spanish Stack" has to be an offensive force. They are only two moves from Zargosa, so if they were retreating from there they would have moved the full three squares to the other side of the river and gotten the river defense bonus.

If there is any way ND can take "the Spanish Stack" in the open that would be a HECKVA lot of catapults to switch sides......

[Aggie]

I'll be at the chat but I don't think it matters for 2 reasons. 1)I think a concensus has developed to manuever rather than attack. We move to that mountain s of Toledo. If they they have an invincible force there they can't defend both new Madrid and Toledo, lets make them choose. 2) the ND victory at Zargosa has put them into an excellent position on their on up in the nw. Thus urgency isn't as present as it was. Even if RP takes leon they will be so weakened as to be usless and be picked off easily(basically our position if Toldeo is heavily defended and we rush it.
