If specific tiles around a city need to be referenced, here is a guide so that we are all speaking the same language:




This is not a discussion thread.

T&T is currently holding 2 polls.

Technology
After we research Chivalry or we get it through trades; please set research to the tech which is the winner of This Poll.It is possible that 2 or more options tie for winner. The DP than has a deciding voice over the winners.

Trades
The winner of this poll will determine our trades for these turns. It is possible that 2 or more options tie for winner. The DP than has a deciding voice over the winners.

New trade possibilities
We are going to meet the last civ soon. We have already located their borders off our shores. When we meet them, check wether they have interesting trading possibilites. If they do, please stop the chat. Interesting is defined as:
- A monopoly tech.
- The tech we are researching.
- Tradeable luxes or resources we need.
- A lot of cash, combined with lack of an ancient age tech we do have.

Current Armed Forces:
12 Warriors
1 Archer
8 Spearmen
10 Swordsmen
8 Horsemen
1 Pikemen
3 Galley


Tasks of the Armed forces:

Garrisons:
- 1 Swordsmen in Mr. Rogers' to head to Vandopolis
- 1 Warrior NW of Grand Bricolage to garrison there

Protection:
NONE

Domestic:
- 1 Pikemen in Ville de Buisson, Change this to something more useful
- 1 Swordsmen in Grand Bricolage, Change this to something more useful
- 1 Warrior in Internal, Garrison
- 1 Pikemen in Liebling, Change this to something more useful
- 1 Archer in Anarchyisgodville, Change this to something more useful

Offensive:
NONE

Defensive:
NONE

Upgrades:
- 1 Spearman in DR
- 1 Spearman in VM
- 1 Spearman in Groton
- 1 Spearman in Bootsville

All Horsemen units should head to a barracks once Chivalry is researched, upgrade to knights, then proceed towards the Audiac borders with Egypt. If war is declared on Egypt, use the knights to attack the cities quickyl and any reserve units to ake city garrisons.

Units to be upgraded should proceed to the nearest city with barracks if they are not already at one.

Operations:
Our armed forces are at a good point at this time, but I advocate domestic and infastructure development during this time rather than mass militarization. I am however, advocating a war with Egypt to eliminate their position in Audiac. I hope to upgrade our horse units to knights in order to use them for this offensive. There are only 3 cities to take so given a decent mobilization time we can win that quickly.

Any units without instructions may move as they like, though city garrisons should not move unless it is of extreme importance.

I am seriously advocating that we increase our science slider in order to increase our research power. A outdated military is the last thing that we need, especially for the next term. I would say to at least up to 50%

Military Alliances: Please do not form any Military Alliances this chat.

Peace Treaties: Other than in the Trade Negotiations, initiate none this chat. For the Trade Negotiations, Peace Renegotiation with Russia may be included.
If asked to renegotiate peace by another Civ, please do so.

Embassies: None this chat

War Declarations: None this chat, and if war is declared on us by another Civ, please stop the chat so that we can decide what to do in the forums.

Tribute Demands:

• Please reject all tribute demands from Persia, Astecs, Zulu and Iroqois.
• Please reject all tribute demands from Russia unless the demand is trivial (10 gold or less and/or a territory map).
• From other countries, pay all tribute demands that do not exceed 40 gold or 2 gpt or that include technologies, cities, or contacts. If the demand exceeds 40 gold, 2 gpt, or includes contacts, techs, or cities, reject the demand.

Territory incursions: Do not request or demand that any nation move its troops from our territory during this turn chat. If what appears to be a possible invasion force arrives near a city, please stop the chat and we can determine what to do in the forums. Please if possible block the route of any Settler/Defender pairs attempting to cross our territory.

Please monitor any incursions within our territory and report during the chat, so that the route is recorded for future reference.

New contacts: It is not mandatory that the chat be stopped if we make a new contact. I would recommend, however, that the chat be stopped if a new contact provides a good trading possibility.
