JalNES I: Quick and Easy

[jalapeno_dude]

Ok about the army, so why my army tried to enter? I never ordered that..

I don't have two cities... I have more..

why I can defend with an 2500 army the whole coast? They raided with barly 500 men... I left mostly chariot archers...

and NK said he aboundened Cyrene......... so......

Well, it wouldn't do much good to just sit there when it wasn't really under siege, and the army might have mutinied otherwise.

Think of the coast of Egypt. Now think of 2500 men. They have to be either spread out (then you have like 5 men per mile), or clumped, in which case there are gaps. And with the navy, they could sneak in the gaps before you could close them.

NK said he would abandon Cyrene if you attacked. You didn't.

a raid doesn't take 5 minutes... I ordered earlier to build watch towers...

and an army can't just choose what it does by itself... I never ordered to enter a walled city because that is very extremly stupid.

 

[jalapeno_dude]

NK managed to set raids up in his orders so they were very fast. Not 5 minutes, but only a few hours.

Generally, there are generals who come up with the tactics (which you don't). If you'd prefer, I could have the army do exactly what you order and nothing else, but I doubt you'd like that.

And why would you attack Tyre if you didn't plan to enter it?

 

[erez87]

In a few hours how could he raid enough for a whole economy?

When ordering something as important as don't walk into a wall.. that's kidna important they will listen...

To scare. Which worked.. They did burned down all their lands (did they lost any economy from loosing their homelands btw?)

[LittleBoots]

So about you leaving, if we get our orders in early enough, we get another update before you leave?

And Dark, we do need to talk. Don't worry.

@Iggy - Really? Where? And come on, Galloglach has to give me some points that make up for that.

 

[Lord_Iggy]

Ok, I realized I made a mistake by leaving this...according to my quitting and rejoining tradition, I'm going to take a different nation than the one I originally made. I'll take Sicily.

I only have one request senor jalapeno, can I change the name to Syracuse?

 

[erez87]

but I will rejoin..

 

[LittleBoots]

Sending orders as soon as I confer with Darkening

 

[erez87]

this turn we still only get less units from eco's?

 

[LittleBoots]

As per the update, last turn unit costs were doubled from normal prices, now they're quadrupled from normal prices, for everyone not involved in the northern tin trade.
