Spoiler lurker's only :

I have thirteen captured treasure, but only two are actually safe, meaning that ten are in danger since I have seen that my potential foes have Man of Wars now, so I have decided to research that and get these powerful ships and hopefully this will protect my treasure from being plundered fby my foes. Right now I only need five more treasure and I will win this game. The number of treasure being brought back to the captials is very worrying since noone esle is bringing in their treasure, so they might have the same idea as me.

Settlement Plan

Spoiler :

* Priority is Gold.
* First Build is the Treasure producing improvement.
* Expand the City Borders with a Temple Rush.
* Maybe allow the gap else the Dutch will attack out of frustration, so get Gold connected to core.

NOTE
... concede the lower SouthWest from Baltimore to French so they can get some Treasure units happening.
... Therefore move the RedCross (City Site directly below Baltimore) one tile to the East.
... French can have the area with the 4 remaining in the SouthWest, it will also be usefull if Dutch is our target.

The Royal Marriage ...
I, Ferric Auris III Queen of England, who is actually a man, but one with a weakness for women's fashion am betrothed.
wonder who will wear the wedding dress me or the 'young, extremely beautiful and wild' French bride, daughter of Roy de France, the King of France.

Kingdoms Alligned
This includes doubling our tech research, trading knowledge cheaply, sharing plans and maps, sharing intelegence of the other teams ... and dividing the new world which will hamper the expansion of the others ... Any extra luxury or strategic resource should be automatically gifted to the other party ... we are engaged after all LOL ... We should swap World Maps too at some stage ...

Regarding our rivals ... I think that we should cease all future technology trade ... and discuss if an opportunity does arise ... I would agree to a veto clause which states that we can trade with any rival ONLY if we both agree.

French Pirates will be named with a W.

France 1539 ... <snip>
From a geographical point of view the Dutch could be a target, but the thing is that he's not a menace. Spain is! And SPain already has 1/3 of the needed VP needed!

Wars are often more difficult than predicted, so having a war with the Dutch would get all our nations weaker while Spain got away with getting more gold and silver back to Spain!

I suggest we try to get an alliance with the Dutch against Spain. What sayest thou?

Me 1543 ... Dear Sir

Regarding attacking Spanish with Dutch ... Yes, do they know that I am alligned? What are they researching? Can I send messages to them?

I will have Ship Building in 5 turns, when will you be completed your research?

I will hail the Portugal in general fashion if they are interested in alligning and who they see the greater threat.

We should begin discussing a combined attack, maybe taking the island settlements first. Since you share borders, you may have a hard time so we should workout how we can assist.

Notes
* Cities cannot be founded on Forest, Jungle, Swamp, Mountains.
* Explorers disband to 2 Shields.
* Treasure is 200 Gold and 1000 Victory Points when returned to Capital.
* Overlap Cities to get access to Luxuries ... this will enable more Treasure units.

I send this message to hear your thoughts, I am concerned about the rise of certain powers, Spain particularly and am wondering if you would be interested in joining forces against another? If you are interested others may join in.

Portugal 1544 ... I'm interested. But I can't declare war on Spain. My cities are too close to him and my army is weaker. I can build Privateers and attack Spanish ships. I also can help with gold.

The Royal Marriage ...
I, Ferric Auris III Queen of England, who is actually a man, but one with a weakness for women's fashion am betrothed.
wonder who will wear the wedding dress me or the 'young, extremely beautiful and wild' French bride, daughter of Roy de France, the King of France.

Kingdoms Alligned
This includes doubling our tech research, trading knowledge cheaply, sharing plans and maps, sharing intelegence of the other teams ... and dividing the new world which will hamper the expansion of the others ... Any extra luxury or strategic resource should be automatically gifted to the other party ... we are engaged after all LOL ... We should swap World Maps too at some stage ...

Regarding our rivals ... I think that we should cease all future technology trade ... and discuss if an opportunity does arise ... I would agree to a veto clause which states that we can trade with any rival ONLY if we both agree.

French Pirates will be named with a W.

Me 1544 ... Dear King Luthor

Nothing from Portugal as yet, I may have wrong e-mail so I sent a PM.

I will have Ship Building in 4 turns.

Regarding Dutch, do they know of our alliance? Can I coordinate tech research with them?

Regards England
>
Me 1544 ... Sent Portugal reply of interest.
>
France 1544 ... Off course the Dutch don't know about our alliance. I'll tell them that you are also in the anti-Spanish Alliance but that's it. I have no problem if you coordinate research with them.

Don't like the Portuguese attitude... he wants the gain but not the pain... shall we attack in 5-10 turns?

Cheers, Le Roy
>
Me 1544 ... Good I assumed that the Dutch were only told about our combined anti-Spanish alliance and not my pending Marriage.

10 Turns is good I think ... as I will be building a city on West Coast soon and will rush a Harbour and build ships, that way I can attack Spain from unexpected direction.

Portugal could assist in attacking Spanish shipping leaving and entering their capital and give me cash which I will share with you.

However I was thinking that we could even land troops in Portugese territory and attack Spain from an unexpected direction. If we need to we can retreat through their territory AND if necessary issue a press release that we are ALL united against Spain. We can make it that Dutch and Portugal take most casualties or cause Spanish forces to move in wrong direction.

* Cities cannot be founded on Forest, Jungle, Swamp, Mountains.

* Treasure is 200 Gold and 1000 Victory Points when returned to Capital.
* Overlap Cities to get access to Luxuries ... this will enable more Treasure units.
