Zulu's have landed near Hippoville and Spycatcher

[TheDuckOfFlanders]

at 16:30h gmt today ,50 year's after the capture of Virconium in game turn's ,the Zulu's (wich we are in war with) have landed a small task force between Spycatcher and Hippoville ,consisting of 1 Knight and one catapult

This is a crisis situation ,as our defence's are not so strong at the West coast of our nation.Therefore i advice our new millitary advisor (Ren the mighty) to open a poll about the situation so we can discuss how to crush our gullible enemy. :soldier: :soldier:

Our foreign minister has been lax, I think. There's no reason to be at war with the Zulus and English if we're not going to attack - this emergency could have been averted.

I am sure that a quickly-rushed crusader will do the trick. We shall prevail!

 

[Knight-Dragon]

The intruders shall die of course! No mercy!

After this, I agree with Kev that we need peace with the Zulus and English. Pointless to cont war if we aren't going to really attack them.

Of course, that's contingent on them not making demands for a peace treaty. I hope they choose wisely.

My personal Militia shall see to it that no foul footed Zulullians tread upon my hallowed fields

Translation: Rush something!

I have started a discussion thread here

And I do believe the 'task force' landed between Hippoville and Dreadtown, not Hippoville and Spycatcher, and also it is a crusader rather than a knight

(inside joke from the ancient history of CFC for those who don't get it)

Bah somone better no see my to it that spycatchre does not fall. I have a particualer intrest in that town!

No No I thought we had seen a end to the horrid zulu wars.....

 

[gonzo_for_civ]

I think we should jsut kill off the invasion with extreme brutality. And then chase down and kill the boats that dropped them off.

I can't imagine why

Better summon the anti-donkey brigade and remove all lamp shades from the surrounding villages

Yeah, CofH...

And we'll have to watch out for dung beetles as well!

Great news about trashing another Zulu city as well as crushing their foray into fanatic sovereign territory.
Can we have a look at whereabouts the Zulus are on the map screens please? Can someone download Pelly's game and post the screenshot if he doesn't do it?

 

[Kev]

Mpondo notwithstanding, judging by their forays into our land my guess would be that the Zulus reside somewhere south of the Hippoville, Cornmaster area.

I have a feeling that Mpondo was a hut-popper - much like I suspect that Viroconium was. Who knows - the dopey AI DOES have a habit of placing cities in annoying spots.

Now that we can get caravels (or will soon upgrade to them) we can really start up some action!

I think Mpondo was especially put there as we had already explored around the island before it was founded and there wasn't a hut there. We wanted to have a city in a different sqaure as far as I can remember.
