Again, time is over for skepticism, if there is no alternative plan, it is irrelevant criticism.
Time is running out, and the skepticists has indeed kept our war preparations hostage from some 10 turns. At this point, we need solutions, not more delays, anxieties and procrastination. We need a decision, and a plan.
We can of course let this sink into a quamire of personal analysis, skepticism,
worries and so on, or we can resolutely take charge and act.
But I could have mentioned that I was open to new inputs to the plan, or alternatives, and elaborated on that. Since you wrote for Logical Sequence, you should probably have asked him to deliver his specifics, in place of having you as his front. Maybe you could demand an apology for him not providing his plan here. But I do apologize for not writing in specifics that I was open to new ideas, that was about ready to be launched as a structured plan.
Spreading our forces thin is the worst thing we can do with slightly inferior forces, our only chance is maximum concentration where it hurts most. This is indeed a surprise attack, and we have been considering other alternatives. We also remove Iron from their arsenal in 3-4 turns following the landing, which is a gameshifter, as well as making them lose Hanging Garden. They will indeed think we go for Brasillia and Sao Paolo, as we rename ships with these names.
Civ3 talk, you cannot hold this against me.
And if noone comes up with an alternative, I really don't take criticism seriously any longer. we already squandered 8 full turns of the peace treaty on whimpering, skepticism and ineffective fears of the future.
This is my valid concern. We wasted enough time as it is, and few of us wants a rerun on this mess, simply because you popped out.
This was targeted on the existing delay, caused by the people that delayed the first proposals.
Whatever we do, there is a risk. But being on their land, taking their workers, pillaging their infrastructre, taking their iron and wonder and finally splitting their Empire is the best we can do.
Civ3 talk, you cannot hold this against me.
However, do not assume they have predicted all this. Building a city in their middle, by the lake, is the last they will expect. If you exaggerate their counterplanning too much, you can say we already lost. In fact, they probably play on having 4-5 hardcore
skepticists keeping complex and bold plans hostage in order to guarantee further apathy, staticsim and in general lack of direction, strategy fatigue and in general paralysis, lack of long term plan and vision. I did not run for COMA thanks to this culture, and hope it will die away as Brazuca will do with this plan.
discussing the way Brazuca exploit internal disunity on more complex planning.
And I really do hope that this paralyzing culture dies out. I am not alone to want it die out, so we can get a plan to work with, now.
In general, I am a military trained person, so apologize my bellicose language.
I wished I was a poet or someone artistic or docile intellectual, so I could appease your standards, formats and expectations for posting.
However, this is a war-plan, I feel it natural to post here.
