  • 1275 AD Orders - Jackson or Dye Fields?

    Situation on turn 1275 AD:




    There were 8 tanks built last turn, and 7 new tanks being built this one. We can chain 2 transports which means 15 new tanks can reach Port Sacrifice. Lego has no chance of taking Port Sacrifice and we have another city NE-NE of Abeline down south (see pic in last turn report pics), Fort Spinebreaker which is defended by 8 tanks. The remaining tanks are scattered among the ruins of the Lego cities razed (again, see last turn report pics).

    As you can see from this pic, Lego has 15 available tanks plus 2 more possible though only perhaps 1 is likely since our bombing of Jackson's tiles most surely will leave it without the necessary shields to complete it. Those 15 tanks however, have 1 or 2 HP left and its unlikely they can take either of the two cities. Btw, there's a little error in the pic, Dye Fields only has 11 tanks, not 15.

    All tanks NOT in Port Sacrifice will be cut off if Lego decides to cut the railroad W of Port Sacrifice. This means only the 20 tanks in PS plus the 15 tanks from home can take the city. The city will be attacked by 10 bombers and almost 40 artillery, unless Lego decides to sortie its fleet at Jackson (2 BBs, 2 DDs) which means the carriers will have to be used against the fleet and not the city.

    Abeline is defended by 50 infantry. After we take Jackson and Dye Fields we will likely cooperate with artillery bombardments but I do not support sending a single unit against the city as that is GS's "area of operations". Our artillery could very well reduce it to size 6 in a couple of turns giving GS better odds. Still, a lot of GS tanks will likely be lost in the battle, hopefully leaving a better tank ratio among us (currently it's 58 (or a bit less) them - 48 us)

    Oh one more thing... I will need a replacement for the 24th of december to the 7th of January. I will be doing a Paris-Berlin-Madrid tour and coming back from Madrid with another friend (hot chick btw ) so I really won't have time until the 10th.

    Any volunteers? It'll be vacation time which means turn playing will be rather slow and I don't honestly see any more than 3 turns being played during that time.

      I havent opened the save for a long time...

      Does Lego have marines / transports ?
      I'd hate for them to rush one up and send them against our bombers on Zen Island.
      The bombers are protected by one cav right ?

      Lego are going to fight it out to the end right ?
      So expect sneaky damaging play.


      I think we need to kill their ships.
      Probably hiding in Jackson ?
      Or are they in open water now ?
      If in Jackson. Take that city first.

      Do we have the dyes hooked up ?
      One dye is within Ports Sacrifices borders that I can see.
      Is it connecting through a Vox harbor ?


      How long before ND attacks GS ?
      With the Lego war won, GS will be beefing up their home defenses like mad, making it even more difficult.

      I hate having Roleplay settled in old Legoland.
      They still plot our downfall. I can feel it in my bones.


      I cant commit to anything over xmas...sorry.
      2 kids & a wife demand my attention.

      A simple turn play with a provided build spreadsheet, I can probably handle.
      But if there is a war...I am never going to find the 3 hours without constant interuption.

        Yes, the bombers are protected by a Cav, and Lego still has transports though we destroyed at least one when we took Port Hammer, there are 3 right besides the old city of Invoice. I don't seriously think they have a shot of landing on Zen Island at least on this turn.

        Lego are going to fight it out to the end right ?

        Yep, though not likely as carefully planned as when Vondrack was playing. This turn (read the battle report) was quite sloppy for them.

        I think we need to kill their ships.
        Probably hiding in Jackson ?
        Or are they in open water now ?
        If in Jackson. Take that city first.
        According to the report they attacked and sunk some of our escorts. If they are in the open, they will be carrier-fodder. If they go back to Jackson they will be destroyed now that we assault the city.

        Do we have the dyes hooked up ?
        One dye is within Ports Sacrifices borders that I can see.
        Is it connecting through a Vox harbor ?
        I need to check the F2 screen next turn for that...

        How long before ND attacks GS ?
        With the Lego war won, GS will be beefing up their home defenses like mad, making it even more difficult.
        ND is still about 8 turns from creating a viable mega-army. Still, vs. Mech Infs that will not likely be of much use. I'm starting to think that we'll need a nuclear war to take out GS.

          hm? wha? gah?


          I'm on vacation from the 24th till the 3rd of Jan.

          Just expect us to be at war with everyone by then...

          Seriously, I would need some information first, like what all is needed to do with ND and GS, if anything special. (chats, etc) Haven't seen a save in my inbox since before we invaded RP, though.

          A build spreadsheet would be helpfull, I even finally have excel at home.

            Good, then UnO it shall be

            I will provide a spreadsheet with all necessary builds. I'll try and hammer out the diplomacy these days too. With regards to the war, it should take, for us, no more than 3 more turn, take Jackson next turn, heal, take Dye Fields, c'est fini.

                  Disbanding all of their artillary to avoid us capturing them.

                  Should make our final assault a little easier.

                    No, those were 5 artillery pieces that we could not defend last turn so I left them out in the open outside Port Sacrifice. Lego still has 26 Artys in Dye Fields and Jackson... which of course will be ours once we capture them

                      Facing impossible odds, a team could disband all artillary rather than allow their conquerors take them.

                      ND's spy should be able to tell us...right ?

                        yeah but I'd still rather not spend ND's gold at this stage... regardless or not that they disband their Arty, we have to take Jackson.

                        Btw, we have like 2000g right now, I think it's a GoW record

                          I have never used a spy before ...

                          I thought it gave you another teams list of total military for free ?

                          ie 26 art, 20 inf etc etc
                          Not by city...just a total.

                          Or is that a spy mission ?


                          I ask, because in the DoN PBEM, Vondrack told me he left his coastal cities unprotected, because he knew I didnt have any marines. I knew he had a spy in me ... I just didnt know what info he was gathering.

                            Totals on them being planted are free.

                            Not sure whether that's updated freely or not, though.
