Ranger99's Going to NAVY?
Citizens and Soldiers,
As many of us know there is a large Barabrian Force within our borders at the moment, and they are pillaging and destroying quite a bit, but have made no move to attack Civatonia. An attack on Priapos is still POSSIBLE but not likley in my thoughts. This gives us many things to think about and discuss.
First off I'd like to state a quick thing really quick: We are dealing with 24 Barbarian Horseman here, even if we had a STRONG RDF created and ready for combat they still wouldn't be able to budge this Horseman stack. It's Defensive adn Offensive depth is simply to great for a normal sized force to deal with. But then there's also the chance that the Barabrians about face and assault Heildeburg.(Discussed more detail later..) So....
(Feel Free to add any other Options that you think of.)
OPTION I:Employ a bloackade against the Barbarians. And blaock them off from the rest of Fanatikos preventing them from pillaging any more land. This would be made of Hoplites and would block them off as best that we could. The problem is if the Barbarinas attacked even a fortified Hoplite thte chances are that the 24 Horseman will win and break thorugh. To counter that we back up the Blockade with Horseman to stall them as we reofrm our blockade.
OPTION ANALYSIS:Easily doable with our current military and we won't lose much doing this but we also won't gain anything. If a decsion can't be reached or agreed by the Citizenry this would be a default repsonse.
OPTION II: Assault the column with all avaible forces and fortify cities with Hoplites.
OPTION ANALYSIS:Not recomened at all, the Stack's defensives depth is too great and it alos leaves them free to pillage whenever, and wherever they please.
OPTION III:IF the Barabrian's attack Heidelburg, we COULD capitolize off of it and attack Germany as well, possibly razing Heidelbirg and TAKING Berlin. If we choose this Rome will most likley break their cease-fore with Germany and continue their destruction of Northern Germany while we chew away at southern Germany. (THIS IS THE OPTION RECOMMENED BY THE FA DEPT.)
More plans to follow if we decide that fighting Germany is a real and possible exploit.
OPTION ANALYSIS:I would very much like to see this Option be carried out as it will enlarge our empire and allow for a higher unit cost while keeping our Core Cites still close together making the RDF all the more viable, even with the 6th city. This option will also increase the experience of our military and create a buffer between us and other nations.
APPLIED TO ALL OPTIONS:No matter which option we choose the Horseman near Priapos is HIGHLY recomenned to tail the Barbarian columns for more Intelligenc eto find out what their intentions are and see if a War With Germany will happen if they attack Heidelburg.
That's the Down-Low on the Barabrian Threats, and Oppurtunities at the moment, this is always updated as Disscussion's continue, I would like to see a TON of participation in this as it really is the fate of our nation.
