Secretary of War: Rihiter
Cartographer: nominee Oldbus ( hope he will stay )

Background: War is over. Our military is capable to defend our current borders. Units are mostly located at cities and asignated to reconnaissance missions.

My goals:
TIME OF PEACE HAS COME. MY MAIN GOAL IT TO PROTECT OUR BORDERS AND CITIES. NO WAR IS PLANED. LET US LIVE IN PEACE AND PROSPER

I will post information about unit placemant after the first TC ( units should be located at their long term positions then ).
 
re Cartographer.

I am happy to stay as Cartographer, but I think you should ask others who don't hold office if they would like to be Cartographer in Term 6 now that I am Govenor of Beshbalik.

Being Cartographer is a good way for new folks to get into the Demogame (both myself and robboo - and probably others - have been Cartographer before standing for office). We seem to have had a few folks sign-up and who may be lurking looking for a way to join. I can recommend it folks!

If you don't get anyone, let me know & I'll continue. By the way, I won't be able to update the unit maps until after the next TC.
 
Oldbus is is right..find a newbie willing to get in the game..worked for us.

You did a great job rihiter....you might yet get more war this term...you never know what the AI might do.
 
SoW....

Do you desire teh ability to ride horses. This technology may be available to trade but it will cost us the ability to build our UU. Let me know.:)
 
Dear SoS Robboo, thank you for asking...

If this tech is available and we can spare some of our techs to get it, why not then. Fast and strong unit might be quite useful even during peace as a fast and efficient preventive unit. Since our UU is weaker then the hors archer I see no reason not to get this tech.
 
Atlas (with all maps including SoW unit maps) updated to TC 3 June (920 AD) in this thread (note: this is a new thread).

Sorry for moving the maps from here, but I wanted to bring them all together with some other stuff as well and it seemed easier if they were in one place. It's not an attempt to break away from the Ministry of War :)
 
Secretary Rihiter I noticed there's a warrior in Abydos. I think it's time for us to disband these units since we do not have the economy to support them and there's no upgrades anywhere in the future.

Any thoughts?
 
SoW Rihiter, any spare units can be useful in scouting the open areas north of Germany, as well as reducing unhappiness in cities. Maybe the ability to work another plot is worth more than the warriors paypacket?

This are my instructions from the last TurnChat:
Rihiter said:
- move the swordsman located W of BW to the hill NW to unfog tiles
- do not move units which are quartered in the border cities
- do not move units which are on reconnaissanse missions ( unfoging tiles )
- you can move all other units to provide happines there where it is most needed
Like you see I gave a free hand to the DP to move units which are not securing the borders and are not unfogging tiles which are in denger of Barbarian attack. He could move those units like he wanted to reduce unhappines.

I will send a unit to explore unknown territories in the next TC.

Well this warrior could be pretty useful to reduce uhnappines since we are running Heredity Rule. Of course if there is no need for that, I will take disbanding him under consideration .

It may be constructive to look at what cities need MP's and which don't.

For instance, Constitution Falls and Old Sarai don't need MP's however Abydos does. I would be willing release garrisions in either city to increase the happiness in Abydos and disband warriors where possible.
 
In my instructions for the last two turnchats I have authorized DPs to move units ( those which aren't at any tasks currently ) among the cities to provide happines there where it's needed.

Also if any Gavernor wants an additional unit in his city garrison, please write your request below.
 
I would like to release all units from Old Sarai since the city is quite happy and does not need MP's as well the city is in the interior of our empire so there's no threat to foreign incursions.

One unit can move to Abydos so you can disband the warrior or release him to another city. The other unit can be used for garrison duty anywhere the SoW warrants.
 
Ok, I will use those units if they'll be needed somewhere. Thank You.

I would like to clarify something right now, before any misunderstandings will apear. Before the second attack on Mongolia. All units ( beside units which were left as city garrison - one unit in each city ) were under my control. After that I have not said anything about designating any unit under any governors orders.! So all units which are additional city garrison ( if there are is more then 1 unit in our "old" cities ), and also all units which are currently quartered in conquered monglian cities are still under my orders! And I can move them in any time and where I want. Please remember that.
 
SoW Rihiter, there is a spearman guarding a hill outside New Port City - no strategic resource - which could alleviate some of the unhappiness in the city (which is borderline), if he was garrisoned. If there is another city with greater need, that is fine, however this hill is now well within our borders, and probably doesnt need the protection.

That spearman was unfoging tiles before the borders of Your city have extended. You are right, now he doesn't need to stand there any more. I will send him to Your city immediately.
