1285 AD Orders - Most Powerful Civ in the Game

[Master Zen]

If you checked last turnthread, I did a pixel-count on the Histo and Powergraphs and we ended up being just 1 pixel behind ND in the Score and 10 pixels above ND in the Powerchart. That means that in theory we're the most powerful in the game right now.

Evil Plan to win by UN Vote

If we convince Vox to vote for us we can win this game in just 6-7 more turns. What do we need to do? I have started a pre-build of the Intelligence Agency at Killdaria (which would have lost a turn of production because of pollution) which is scheduled to be built in 4 turns. However, 3 turns from now we will return the "borrowed" artillery to ND (16 pieces IIRC), the resulting peace treaty will end our mobilization so we can switch back to peacetime builds. We then switch Killdaria to UN when we get Fission in 4 turns. It should take about 3 turns more to finish building.

I do not recall if we need just a simple majority to win by UN vote. Since the only candidates will be ND and us, it is unlikely that RP or GS will vote for ND. ND will, bound to the treaty, have to vote for us, and hopefully so will Vox (our point will be simple: Vox will have no share of victory if it comes any other way).

With three votes the game is ours. It will be simbolic because we've gotten this far due far more to diplomacy than to war, it will be built in Killdaria, formerly Dar-El-Killam so its a natural "joint" city for ND and us. And it will be a worthy end to this game.

Suggestions?

We can get the vote anytime we want right ?

On the Vox Sh1t List is
GS #1 : For being nasty during their war
RP #2 : For offering help against GS, then pulling out.
GoW #3 : For not helping very much during the war. We promised a lot, but gave little.

Perhaps we sell it to Vox as...
If we attack GS & RP, and return them to their own lands, will they vote for us in a UN vote if it all goes pear shaped ?

UN vote is a cheese.
I'd like to see a GS invasion before we do it.
Just to see if we can do it & win it.

If it goes pear shaped or stalemates, we can always switch to the UN vote as a back up right ?

[Master Zen]

Well it depends, after the UN is constructed, I have no idea when we get a chance to vote again.

Btw, note that when we get Fission, we'll also know where the Uranium is...

[UnOrthOdOx]

I wouldn't put it past RP or GS to vote ND.

And DON'T FORGET LEGO

I also favor returning Vox to their rightfull place in the world first.

[Master Zen]

and if ND wins... WE WIN TOO

it's a win-win situation whoever wins the vote, the only problem is if ends up in a tie.

[Aggie]

Remember I think we need 4 of the 6 votes to win. A 3 for us and 3 abstention will still prevent us from winning. Unfortunately I can count 3 anti us votes
1) RP
2) GS
3) Lego
Maybe we can get lego to vote for us or maybe we can just eliminate RP the turn before the UN. Then with 5 members a we win 3-2 with vox

The Aggie had an idea
it was an awful idea!!!!
It was an wonderful idea
It was an wondefully awful IDEA.
GS is our friend, but we know this must end.
So lets attack roleplay whilst GS is away.
We can invade and destroy all on the same day
Then using railroads from there we can fly
Right to the Storm with an eye.

Ok now that my rhyme is over some questions.
1)How many units does GS have at home
2)could we rush build sufficient #s of transports to at least move a significant portion of the lego invasion force to there.
In theory they can land at port go east and invade the same turn. In all honesty the most practical way to attack GS is by imvading RP.

[Master Zen]

Invading RP is a possiblity, alas we'd need transports in the east since we have absolutely none. Or we could find a way to destroy Lego... they probably have settlers somewhere there. Maybe GS might want to inspect Lego's military positions and find where they are hiding...

[Ennet]

ND was preparing an invasion of GS right? can't they invade RP instead as it was doubtful if they would be able to hurt GS anyway? And to UN vote, no let's wait/skip it.. i don't want to win by it.. atleast not yet.. this game been going on for over two years, i want to see GS been blown up by some nukes.. :P

[Master Zen]

ND IS preparing an invasion of GS... in 3 turns. Yes that sounds crazy but that's why we've been chatting about.

[Master Zen]

First turn since the start of the war without any combat on our side...
