Good news. GS knights withdrew and we now can use all ou forces in battle. Additionally GS can't have seen our forces to build road, so they are toally in the dark about that. The force on the SP are 2 (4/4) pikes, 2/4 knight and 2/3 MI. So clearly combat took place, just not sure the results.

This is what ND sent to us

For a team that doesn't have Gunpowder they are sure doing a good job of protected a non existent source of Saltpeter.

[Ennet]

ok thanks :-) silly me thought it was our turn now :-)

[Aggie]

I am eager to see our save. Here is my current plan.
We build the road where we the workers are right now. Then we move our forces to the attack. Much depends on where the knights went. Regardless this allows us to use the forces at Alamo and we can simply withdraw weakened forces to the Alamo for recovery to keep it garrisioned.

Also I am unsure where we will use the catapults. I think GS will be REALLY surprised when they see catapults shelling them(Of course if they are removed they'll never know it happened. My gut instinct is to bypass the SP forces and let ND take those. But it depends on how many targets we have this turn. If the knights moved to a desert location then we should rush them. However, I suspect the knights moved SE or E so we're stuck with aattacking the GS forces here.
IF we have foces still full on the hill where we ended, I suggest we attack the barcelona hill to see what is in Barcelona(this attack can be done with forces from the Alamo or the worker covering force. Then we make a decison on Alamo.

Stereo!

Ok, I've looked at the save and I believe our best course of action is too attack the forces on the SP and then dig in and fortify on that hill. The workers can build a road and all forces can get there to fortify. Any forces that have been damaged can retreat to Alamo.

We could throw our forces at the GS force on the hill, but I suspect this isn't the best course of action. By keeping our force here we control road access to the South. Also we will act as a magnet for GS forces coming south. Perhaps we should even build a fortress here.

We have 18 more riders rushing south. They will arrive in theater next turn(390) and can attack in 400. I am planning on using these forces is the great assault on pamploma.

Now to a new item. Research. I propose that we go to 80% to get chemistry in 10 turns. We will lose about 79gpt so we'll need to ask ND for help. But in return we can give them the tech for free. If you all agree on this I'll email them with the request. We could also have Chem in 8 turns but would run a 122 deficit. Perhaps we could ask ND/Lego for 61got each and then give them the tech for free. The problem I have with this is that Lego is researching other techs and might not want to give them to us if they pay money in gold beforehand.

BTW our GA is over.

We need (Or ND needs) some combat settlers.

Move them in with our units, so that we have a close retreat, and totally screw up any plans that GS has of settling on the Saltpeter that they know nothing about.

If we can move our front lines to the Saltpeter, then its another nail in the coffin for them. They may have territory on Bob, but they still wont have Musketmen.



PS Aggies plan is fine

[UnOrthOdOx]

Tech plan sounds good to me.

Turn Report

Here are the normal screenshots.

We destroyed 2Pike ,1mi,1knight that were on the SP. We lost 1 Rider, and 3 were killed by GS during their turn. We can't know GS' loses but here are "known" losses for this offensive.
GOW-5 riders
GS-4Pike,2MI,1Knight

Additionally we have seized key positions and now control movement in the south. I considered destroying the road to barcelona, but have decided for the moment not to.

Here is the situation in the south. We have fortified on that hill and have catapults. I am hoping this prevents GS from helping pamploma. Also by puting our forces here, GS/RP will think that Pamploma is safe. That isn't the case. I laos did a recon on the road and NO GS forces are present except for the ones you see.



Here is the situation in our homeland. Notice that becasue of the GA ending time will be added to most projects. But the aquaduct in Dreadnaughtica will be completed next turn.

Your robotic arm implant was delayed by two turns but we can shift to using the Forest tile and reduce the delay to one turn.....

[Aggie]

Yes, unortho I tried to get aGL with you again, but to no avail. You are the rider on the Sp now, you finsihed off a 1/4 pike.
