In the light of the large amount of discussion about how our Pikemen are distributed I ask this question:
Which defence distribution plan do you support?

I would say atleast 1 in every city, since we don't know if a country will dicide to broadside us, and take several important cities (or raze them). Put 2-3 (or more) on the front lines. Also put 2 (maybe half as much as the front lines) in the cities that are one "row"/"line" back from the front. That way, we won't be surprised by any Riders or quicker moving units that might wander further north (or west) during a war.
Those 2nd tier cities (behind the front lines) would have pikes on "standby", going to what ever city (inner or outer) that needs quick assistance.

The tricky part will be defining "Front line" cities from inner border cities.
Anyway, we can include those second line cities in the "Land Boundry cities."
If you'd prefer I can ask a mod to add that option. Please, give the exact explination you would like to see in the option.

Looking for the door...
I think you're doing just fine. As we will probably always have some military production going somewhere, sending a "fresh" vet out to an area to cover roving ROP units will not be a problem. I voted for #1.

If we do have a Right of Passage Agreement with an untrustworthy civ then I would choose option 1 (at least 1 pikeman in all cities, any surplus units in land bordering cities).
Otherwise I see no use for the pikemen in the inner cities, I would then choose option 2.
Thank you Falcon02 for doing a great job as supreme commander, and taking interest in the peoples opinions.
