Vox's Coming War

[astrologix]

dejon, I agree. Even if we send two swordmans towards the GS lands,

1. We should declare war against GS
2. IMO, our 2 swords can do NOTHING to help Vox or to try to take a GS city
3. We will lose those swords as soon as they will land
on the GS territory
4. Our army is not strong enough to waste two important units which could be upgraded soon to medieval infantery and play an important role in our possible war against ND.

Please, I ask of you not to close your eyes to possibilities of showing power and of obtaining gain; and remember that when we get to them (in my preview it will be around 9 to 10 turns from now) Vox will already have their main force in enemy territory, and our landing will break the GSians defensive line (they are not expecting us there).

You are very right. It's just that I don't think we can afford to do it right now. If something happens on Bob, I want to be able to take ND down a bit and not just hold them off; a couple of units can make a difference of taking a few cities or not.

Maybe though, if we sent just one Horsemen, just for 'show', it might have the effect you are talking about. We could get lucky and find a city with only one wounded defender left. And I think that GS wouldn't see one Horsemen as a larger threat and would tend to ignore him while the Vox threat is still present.

I share Dejon and Astro opinion.

Me too.

We need to see a wee bit more of the map. Now if GoW were to explore the western coast of GS just a bit furthur, and we got that intelligence, we may be able to shortcut our craft's trip to the lands of GS.

If there is a galley crossing besides the one we know about, we might be able to do something. If there isn't another crossing point, will not be able to participate due to time.
