The New Age

We have all the techs and it is hoped that this post-research age will be one of peace and prosperity for all nations.

But probably not . . . . . .

thank you for this

[Paddy]

what mischief are ya upto Stone?

[marcuspeddle]

Thanks. It's costing me a fortune. I hope it's worth the money.

[Rubychaser]

why do you have it?

[marcuspeddle]

To keep the Arabs out. I had a big war with them in the past and I'm not taking chances any more.

[Rubychaser]

what will you do if they just mass and attack one spot?

do you have reserves behind the wall, or do you need to demolish the wall to counter attack?

[Paddy]

hahahaha

last tech 2 turns away

1585ad

have you started to build your space ship yet?

[marcuspeddle]

The wall is there to block the enemy from getting a foothold into my territory. I have a strategy (untried) for containing the enemy once he goes at the wall.

Space ship? My scientists are thinking about this.

[Rubychaser]

What is your strategy?

[Paddy]

yeah Mas, what Strategy???

and Space Ships rule

[marcuspeddle]

Have you finished your space ship?

During the last war, the Arabs sent their troops in just a couple of columns that were heading straight up. Attacking these columns was extremely difficult but near the end of the war I realised that they had a hard time defeating my tech infantry. So, when the Arabs knock a hole in my wall they will be stopped by the barricades. Then I send lots of mech infantry to form 'seals' around those gaps. While they are trying to hammer through those units I use air power and paratroopers to take cities behind the lines. Once I take a city and leave it lightly defended, they will turn back and try to retake the city. Ta-da!
