1944 AD (10):
finally get rid of the ONE invader
notes:
let to many troops defending choke, so failed to raze ephesus.
bad call to guard choke, should have concentrated on city. i don't think we can afford another assault before our reinforcemnts are ready.
susa produces galleon every turn, but i'm not sure we have enough clads.
missed an immo for partrush, should have used knights too. we may use them for something else. but we cant't get to 80 spt in any city with coal plant.
think scientist is worth the 2gpt we're losing for him
there were about 2 destroyers around, 5ish clads. plus at least one of each retreated to repair.
there were at least 3 artys in ephesus
