1830 BC - Orders, Discussion, Report

[ruby_maser]

Well, I'm starting this because I want to be sure these orders get out.

Overall, the city will both grow and produce a settler at the same time, dropping it to size 2. The city WF's should continue with max growth (and ironically max shields), utilizing both cow bonuses (WF #7 and #8).

The settler and Pamplona's spearman garrison are free to run to the silks and hopefully beat ND there.

The queue for the city should be reset to produce a spearman next. It is timed to be done in 1650 BC or 6 turns from the start date in 1830 BC.

Post 'em if you've got 'em.

the garrison of saragossa should run out to the silk in order to prevent a possible INVASION from the land-crazy Demogyptians and patrol the are for a while until the settler arrives there.

Interim Saragossa Govenor's Orders

Senor Dejon, with our lord Togas's Permission, has named me his Interim Govenor of Saragossa.

Orders for Saragossa
Change build from Barracks to Wall
Next items in the Q are to be a Worker-Temple-Horse

I will post on this desision soon.

Have TEG follow Basher.

Have the Pamplona warriors move towards the coast, whilst staying on high ground. If you see barbarians, kill them. If not, get us some better views of the ocean.

If no orders for the Madrid group, move them North, back towards Los Sierra Brilliantes. Perhaps we'll get a better idea of the settlement situation up north.

That was my intention too, except if the barbarian we spotted last turn is still around (in that case, we shoud obviously crush him to gain some more experience)

We must ensure that ND doesnt colonize Silk city.
This is in my opinion our single most important point in the agenda. the saragossa spearman is not needed as a garrison right now, we need to discover if the yellow ones have a settler on the way, and if so stop it.

Not needed? With a GoW warrior 4 tiles away from it?

[Togas]

The save has arrived

Dejon, if you can do the save in the next 4 hours, please PM me. I will not be home for another 4 hours or so.

I also invite anyone who is online to join us in chat should we do the save this afternoon. I am currently at work and pretty busy today, but I can sneak away for a few minutes to assist with the save.

Senor Dejon is unavailable, apparently. That is why he asked me to be Saragossa's Iterim Govenor.

Eta Tamali

P.S. please forward the save to me..

results of the turn

GoW offers us CONTACT WITH VOX. I reply with 25g and hit "accept". I also send a short PM to Panzer (See Diplomacy thread)

TEG moves N, follows Basher. GoW is now 2 turns from removal, and seem to be complying with our requests.
Pamplona Warrior moves W
Magyar moves South and defeats barbarian hut, taking 1 damage. 25g earned.
Madrid exp. moves N

Settlement group moves NW, NW, W.

Barcelona Worker moved to Silks

Barcelona production changed to spear
Pamplona production changed to spear
Saragossa production already changed to wall.

ND's "Arne" spotted nw, nw, nw of Magyar warrior, on a hill.

No new wonders being built

We are weak compared to ND, average compared to GoW, and strong compared to Lux.

I'm afraid that ND is lying to us. They are stronger to us and consequently to Lux and have no reason to fear them. IMO, they could settle east (Brilliants Valley) without threat from Lux. They are trying to find argumens to justify their demand for settle in our lands...

On another hand, I don't think they have already a settler on the jungle near us to found the silk city : Neu Thebes has still 4 pop, and we can doubt that they have send a settler from another city for this purpose.

[OliverFA]

I completely agree with Astrologix. I've written more about that at the ND border thread.

SCORE:
ND  59 (+ 1)
RP  57 (+ 1)
GoW 41 (+11)
Lux 32 (+0/+1)

GoW have their third city (+10) next to their former borders (+1)

[astrologix]

Oliverfa,
Could you summarize how many cities each team have currently ?
