I will be away for 2 weeks, so I thought I'd leave a note for whoever picks up the save.

- I have just sent a spear from Wines to The Voice. It is only a matter of time before a barb does some pillaging there, so we will need a few more troops in the area. Also, Vox horses are still on the loose and The Voice cannot poprush emergency units yet.

- There is a barb axe near EotS. I've baited him with a skirm in the forest; we'll see what happens next turn.

- The settler in Wines needs to go north. Blake has specified the city site we need to grab in his "Post-vox strategy" thread. There is a skirm and spear north of Wines to clear FoW for the settler.

- I've set up Taz so that a worker can be poprushed next turn. Borders of Taz have just expanded so once the worker is ready the Iron at Taz can be mined.

- There is a large stack followed by a small stack of troops heading to Moscow. I have no idea what the garrison there will be like. I know there were 2 chariots and a HA around the borders of Moscow a couple of turns ago. It is best to move the spear in the larger stack to the city first, to see if the other spear is needed to protect the smaller stack. Be warned that there are probably 2 AC Cho-ku-nos (if not more) in the forest tile just outside Moscow. AC does not know that we have a stack approaching Moscow, but they will know once we start bombarding cultural defence down. They will be eager to win the city if we take several turns of attacking to capture it.

- Finally, Hot Mustard wrote a good summary of what the turn player does in his thread "thinking about retirement" (posted a few months ago).

Good luck

[notyoueither]

Received from AC.

Howdy from AC:
Do you want to keep Moscow? We're in a position to burn it this turn
and end the war.

[DeepO]

!

[Blake]

Let them burn it I guess.

[notyoueither]

Any really important things of note, Blake?

I should be doing the turn shortly.

[Blake]

Hmmm, I'd love to load the map up and take a look but I can't .

Noting the bolded points, get that gold at Vox hooked up asap, more happy means more whipping.

As a note, screenshots showing our cities and workers would be nice, so more advice can be offered by those of us who are unable to load the save.

[notyoueither]

Sent to AC.

Burn it.

And cheers for your effort.

We have been delayed far too long in our plans by a stubborn resistence by Vox.

We look forward to moving ahead with plans for mutual prosperity and benefit that were talked about long ago.

We will get a port set up as soon as we can work it in.

Regards
nye for GS

I have a problem in that I have no more room on Poly.

Where can shots be put?

I did this for the turn. I will return tomorrow to integrate things into the usual format, and maybe I can email shots to the team addy and someone else can put them up.

Main stack moved 8 to pin 1 horse and 1 chariot in Yangs Demise (Moscow)

Skirmisher VII: going north to protect settler
Skirmisher XI: heal in 6

Brashear: going east to scout coast
Laraque: skip turn and see what happens

Spear IV: going north the guide settler
Spear V: on the way to The Voice

Worker I: to woods 3 of The Voice to build road
Worker III: move 2 and road incence

Settler b: 999 going north

Eye of the Storm: change to worker in 5
Winestorm: on Library
Taz City: whip worker, 2 pop 51+ hammers
The Voice: on granery

-4 gpt, Philosophy in 6 (+3gpt in 7)

[Blake]

Just put pics on Imageshack, no-ones going to find them there. It has like 12 characters of random crap in each filename :P.

[notyoueither]

I've sent screens of the workers to our own email addy. All 3 of them in 2 shots.

I'd say we really need a few more workers. The war was expensive, but hopefully worth it.
