Preturn-Shift the pike, MI, and ansar in Haried to the front.
IT-Egyptian cavs kill all of our units in Fez, 2 muskets, 4 cavs, 2 ansars, and capture the city from us. We kill 2 cavs. The chinese assult Shiraz, we
kill a rifle but lose a cav.
1- Lose an elite Ansar to a redlined cav. But kill the cav with the next ansar. Kill 2 more cavs.
IT- America takes Fez but Egypt takes it back. Kill a cav, but Eygpt kills our pike and 2 ansars in Trondheim and capture the city. Mecca riots, I have to hire entertianers in almost Every city.
2- Kill a cav and take Trondheim back. Lose 2 ansars, kill 3 cavs.
IT- Kill a cav, Lose a pike, MI, and cav, and Trondheim falls back to the egyptians again. Which allows them to walk right into Mansura because It is undefended. Then Chinese Infantry come marching in from the North, we are screwed. I have to hire a whole bunch more Entertainers. Ottomans build US and our treasury is running dangerously low. We are losing 25 gpt and have 15 gold left.
3-China finally wants to talk and I get peace gaining 20 pieces of gold. Egypt still doesn't want to talk. Redline a rifle with pults, then kill it with a cav. Somehow we are now gaining 31 gpt. Shift troops around and begin to move our city garrsions to the front. Up lux to 30% and fire some entertianers.
IT-Spain declared war on the Chinese. Lose 2 pikes and Hareid falls to the Egyptian Calvery and then Egypt walks right into undefended Copenhagen. Lose a musket in Aleppo, I have to hire more entertainers. Aleppo walls->musket.
4-Buy Dyes from China for WM, 7GPT, and 57 gold. Lose an ansar but take back Copenhagen. Unhappiness is getting really bad and Egypt still does not want to talk. We are in trouble.
IT-Stavenger falls, lose a musket and 2 cavs and Aleppo falls. We lose 2 pikes in Copenhagen, but hold the city.
5- Egypt still will not talk! I'm Bringing this back to the forums.

That's because the MA with America against China was costing us 56gpt or so.
Sorry team, this is all my fault. I was thinking of what ifs with Egypt and not signing them up for an MA against China was just plain stupidity.

Should we continue on? Who wants to take the turns?
I generally don't like to give up. They have to literally throw me out, before I leave.

I am waiting for Bedes anaylsis of the situation.
Situation Analysis by Bede's G2
15 effective attackers (Ansars, cavs and MDI)
Batteries consist of 15 cats and 4 cannon
Defensive troops are 11 pikes, 1 spear and 1 pike
5 warriors doing MP duty?
We still hold the peninsula and one little ville in between th Chinese and the Egyptians.
Geopolitics
At peace with China, good.
At war with Egypt, not so good.
At peace with Spain, America and Turkey.
We can safely leave the Turks out of any calculations as they are too far away to do us good or bad.
The Egyptians are pushing on the Chinese in the north and the Americans in the east.
We can sell Chemistry to Spain for a meagre treasury boost, only problem she is at war with China. WE have no embassy with Spain and she is pretty gassed right now anyway and we can't afford to build one with her anyway. Had we some more cash we could prpobabl;y bring her in against Egypt and Cleo just might turn her attention on the weaker of the two foes.
There does not appear to be much that can be done right now diplomatically.
Domestically I think it is time to call Houston (as in Houston, we got a problem)
First step is raise the lux tax and see how many people can go back to work.
With lux at 40% enough people go back to work at Damscus and Mecca to get back to 20spt and 15spt with slow starvation at Damascus and put 3gpt in the iocncome column. Adding another notch to the lux spending puts everybody in those towns back in the fields leaving us a bet loss of -14. Putting a few more to work at Bastra leaves us with a short term starvation problem but brings the net loss to -12. Everybody back to work at Kufah brings the net loss to 6gpt.
Anyway, backing through all the towns we can get to 0 loss at 50% lux with a few short ration locations.
Militarily there is a concentration of our force at Copenhagen and Shiraz that can be used to put some hurt on the exposed Egyptians on the grasslands. They appear to have only five or six effectives, some wounded. Skirmish first at Copenhagen, then skirmish at Shiraz. Right now we need to contain the Egyptian cavalry before we can think of retaking the towns lost, so the order of the day is cannon fire followed by mounted skirmishers who can withdraw after finishing the wounded and crippled. Make sure the skirmishers have a safe place to withdraw to after battle.
Situation is dire, but far from hopeless.
I am attaching the save with the changes I made to the citizen assignments and tax rates for your next advisor to reveiw and comment.
