The Australian Rankings

[Pedrunn]

I cant see the colors of the Austrians in the Economic or the Science Rank. They probably our over another color. So check out the military and averall rank of them.

Seems like thry are fairly strong

[Maquiladora]

If you turn on the "zero sum graph" you can see the rankings of everyone clearly. Although it maybe hard to see a clear leader at this early stage...

Anyone up for planning an invasion then?

[Maquiladora]

Not yet... I think 3 cities is the minimum to produce enough units to overrun a few of their cities and defend their stacks at the same time.

Also its the Austrians not the Australians, but theyre all the same to me, cannon fodder or should that be archer fodder...

[Pedrunn]

I read Austrian buy wrote Australian.

I will get the zero sum graph later. Although i dont like it at all!

Well turn 11 and the Austrians are in front of our capital. That is very concerning the military power graph tells us they have 4 military units. So let's aks for a map exange before we plan our invation. And if the Austrians don't accept the map exange then threat them with war, of course without declaring war if they don't accept usually this strategy works.

I'll give YOU cannon fodder!

[Zaphod Beeblebrox]

we should of course prepare for war. but we should try to keep peace at least until we have a military force worth that name. btw, what is the austrian attitude towards us and what is their leader like? (yeh, i know she likes wiener waltzer and sachertorten )
