  • POLL: Diplomacy in Times of War with Germany

    as the germans just have captured wombatoon by a surprise attack, we are now fighting a 5 front war.
    against the germans all along the eastern border and the western border of our empire. on the southern border against the now german occupied town of wombatoon (which is more like a middle border, because it strucks directly into the centre of lemuria). against austria both on the northwestern border behind wien as well as on the western border behind linz.

    though i'm very confident in our brave soldiers and our wise minister of defence, i'm rather sure this full out war everywhere cannot be won as we are also behind in the tech race to both opponents.

    this is not an official poll, more for information gathering, so it will be multiple choice. to get a clear picture of what the majority wishes please avoid voting for contradictionary options.

    Soem of this is rather difficult to say right now, but it should be clear that we should take the opportunity to make good allies of the Thai and if possible the English.

    As for Austria - depends how a war with Germany goes, if it goes well, then we should quickly make peace with them and batter the Germans as long as we can, until they are at a level with Austria. If we start to loose against Germany and don't success in making peace with them then, then also make peace with Austria. If we just retake Wombatoon and get peace with Germany back, then and only then keep on sending forces towards Austria.

    So in essence, I say try a cease fire with Austria, then start on killing of Germany. If the resistence we encounter doesn't suggest we will loose against them, then befriend Austria and keep on battering Germany. Otherwise retreat and if we can afford it start taking on Austria again, if we are weak by that time then befriend them and everyone else.

      Are these polls not banned by the constitution?

        This one is OK, as it is unofficial

        And as Zaphod already mentioned (correctly):

            We must strive for peace with Germany as soon as we have taken back our beloved city of Wombatoon. We can't wage a war with both Germany and Austria and we need to have both of our hands free to finish our conquest of the Austrian cities as soon as possible.

            We must seek peace with all the other nations of this world as this is a matter of life or death now we are at war with Germany.

              The Germans backstabbed us killed thousands of brave and peacefull and innocent inhabitants of our city Wombatoon. For that crime they have to pay. The city Nürnberg must be raized to the ground and they have to give us their wonders, too.
              Well if they accept to give us Wombatoon back diplomatically then we should leave them alone. But they won't do it. So extinct Austria and Germany and ally with the other ones.

                Martin mentioned some good points:

                Shall we try to take their wonders?

                  if they resist our peacefull attempts to reastablish the old borders and force us to battle them, the wonders of course will be a nice payoff. but we could use peace more than the wonders right now, especially as they aren't in their frontcities.

                    Can't remember where they are? Are they far away from the border?

                        Düsseldorf is a border city and would fit into our empire. Leipig further away, big a worthy goal with the Ramajana. Berlin is rather close to Leipzig, but actual I think a little bit too far away from Pedrunnia. And finally Hamburg, the city is rather in the East of Germany so not a short term goal. The short term goals should be Wombatoon, Nürnberg and another city. That comes with the next screenshot.

                          So here is the city we should take, as we can see Magdeburg is empty. Within the next two turns Madgeburg is ours. If the Germans think they should take the opportunity to take Wombatoon, we take the opportunity to take Madgeburg.
