Go for the holy city!

[ChrisiusMaximus]

a screenie would help for sure but this does seem an opportunity to give pal a bloody nose

[GeoModder]

Okay, I'll sent a "tyvm" response tomorrow, and ask if they're prepared to sent us a screenshot from the situation in Heliopolis in 325 BC.

I will also point them towards Banana. That will give them a reason to go southwest again, so Heliopolis stays within their field of view.

[UnOrthOdOx]

Bah. No asking for a screeny. (coupld be seen as rude/disingenuous) Just go for it.

From Geo....

Hi Realms Beyond,

Our team thanks you for the information, but unfortunately our moves were already done so we could act on it only from 350 BC onwards, while PAL still had to play its turn. So we expect this war chariot will retreat to Heliopolis.
However, it could be useful to us to confirm this situation at the onset of 350 BC. Could we therefore request a screenshot of the immediate area around Heliopolis?

As on you ongoing quest to search for the Pyramids, we advise your scout to backtrack towards Heliopolis, head south as long as you're in PAL lands and then go a few turns southeast.

With thanks,
Warbit of the Rabbits

And RB's reply......

Warbit of the Rabbits,

Its a pity that your units had used their moves - it would have been a wonderful coup. We were not able to get an update of the situation at the onset of 350BC and I am not sure if we can get an update for future turns. Further, our team made a decision ages ago not to share screenshots that we are going to stick to until map trading is allowed in-game.

That said, we will try to assist your survival as we have done over the past few turns.

Thanks for the info re the Pyramids. It seems that your land mass is even more screwed than ours.

Regards,

Team RB

This came in from Realms Beyond.

Hi Rabbits,

We'd like to help you out and noticed you lack iron working, a tech we could potentially get to you. We were wondering - what tech are you researching at the moment and what is your estimated completion date.

We recognize your temporary difficulties to maintain a competitive research rate due to your conflict with PAL, which makes coordinated research even more important.

Team RB

For those not following the turn report, we're 1 turn away from Iron Working.

[GeoModder]

More stuff from RB. They're certainly willing, but we're simply not quite on the right tune.
They haven't met Banana yet, but we know that team is researching Calender, and once they meet them...

Hi Rabbits,

Further to our in-game chat we have some ideas and advice for you:

Firstly, we all know you're in a tech hole. So were Templars until they landed an interesting monopoly tech (Metalcasting). We propose that you do something similar, and target Calendar. We have a couple of Calendar resources to hook up, and we'll happily pay you in advance with Maths & the rest of Monarchy (in roughly 10 turns). Templars have two or three Calendar resources (and would surely give you MC in return), Imperio has none (but they do have Marble and may well be interested in the Mausoleum), but we haven't met Banana, so you'll need to fill in the blank here. You would need to go to 0% research now to stockpile cash for a run at Calendar. It's a rather left-field proposal, but desperate times means desperate measures.

We've noticed that PAL's pop has just dropped considerably, and as they've recently traded for Construction, we advise you to expect incoming Catapults.

One tip for your next city: if you can settle a city on the north coast then it will allow trades routes with our continent which would give a welcome shot in the arm to your economy.

We look forward to your feedback.

Best Regards

Team RB

Let's talk to Banana and see if we can stop them from reseraching Calendar.

[GeoModder]

Fat chance there, IIRC they're only 8 turns away from finishing it. Besides, since this is a Terra Map game every team would like to be quick on finding a 'New World'.
