Missed the Boat
ok, to start off this game is not over. granted we are in a pretty bad position, stuck between Donuts and Idiots, but we still have a shot at surviving and eventually thriving. i'll now present my proposal to save our country and defeat our enemies.
Now, as well all can see, we have to so much territory atm, and 2 vicious enemies closing in, that we can't defend all the land we currently occupy. thus, i believe we need to abandon some of our cities and hope to defend our core, beat the enemies in a war of atrrition, and hope MIA help gets here sooner, rather than later (or never). if we can keep our core intact, weaken D'Nuts severely and defend against KISS, MIA should be able to rip up D'Nuts. also, we need to remember that D'Nuts may have surprise on their side, but they don't have power. we have a strong military compared to them, and their still a little weak in most areas from our earlier war. so, this is what i think we should do on this turn:
City production and Unit Moves
- abandon Fort Carbonperoxides
- have pike in Fort C. pillage banana tile south of Fort C. this will give D'Nuts one less road into our empire and will hopefully occupy a few MW's trying to kill our pike
- take pike on tile north of Fort Incendiary and pike south of Fort I. and move them into Fort I. take 2 pikes in Dynopolis and move them into Fort I. we can make our stand against first wave of MWs in Fort I.
- switch production of library in Fort I. to walls, they'll finish next turn
- rush barracks in vbraunopolis for 132 gold
- switch production in Dynopolis from worker to pike, continue pumping units from Dyno for rest of war
- start pumping units from Carpetbomb
- rush library in Unabomb for 88 gold
- move pike out of Carpetbomb and move it south
- horse will finish in Semtex in 2 turns, start on settler once horse build
- total gold spent on rushes: 220 gold
New City Settling
Right now i believe the safest place on our continent is the unsettled area west of our empire. If we can settle cities there and get them up and running somewhat, we can have a second "core" to fall back on in case KISS and D'Nuts overwhelm our forces. think of it as building a contingency core, in case we get outgunned by our enemies.
- Semtex and can supply the settlers, while switching between settelrs and units in production, to allow the pop to grow back.
- still build city in NE corner by KISS cities, near our pike. this city should put pressure on Galls
Foreign Affairs
-don't talk to either of our enemies, they are obviously not interested in peace
- convince MIA to declare war on D'Nuts, and possibly (but probably not gonna happen) KISS. i'll make this my personal mission to get MIA at war with the Iroqi and sending troops over to destroy the Iroqi core
- acquire Chivalry from MIA and start building some knights!!
Military Actions
- i suggest we build a couple more pikes and then try to raze at least one KISS city with our Immortal/Treb stack. we have all these units, might as well try to take out 1 KISS city to show we're still alive
- Auda City would be the best target, as it is the newest city and will take away Ivory from the Galls
- build up our forces, building a combo of Knights, pikes, Immortals, and trebs and then attack with all our force to try to raze KISS cities and destroy Iroqi military.
- try to coordinate actions with MIA against Iroqi once they declare war
now that i've said my ideas, please everybody post comments, opinions, ideas, plans, and any advice you can. we need everyone's input on this one. DZ, BCLG, Tim, Theoden, lost_civ, Vind2, donsig, Strider, everyone please post and help save our nation!! to any lurkers out there: now's the time to post!
