1. Inherited Turn - Make premptive strike against French Longbowman.
2. Joan sues for peace, the cow wont even give us her world map! Our answer= **** off!
Elite Knight that made attack above survives a Longbow attackon 1hp! nice! Bombardment of Orleans 50% successful. There only 1 defender left after our attack but no more units with moves!
We take Thermopylae with moderate losses.
3. We don't have the troops to take Orleans. They're too beaten up, will regroup and try again.
4. Movement and build up of troops for next wave of attacks.
5. French Longbowman attackign our forces near Orleans, I kill one before it has a change to attack, but the other has taken an Immortal
steves_folly2 (the city lol) is destroyed.
6. We discover Democracy. I decide to go for Military Tradition. I'm gonna pull back from Orleans so we can heal our units in our territory.
7. I'm moving our amassed troops within range of Paris and Rheims (from Thermoplyae and Athens respectively). The assault on Paris with include the Knight Army.
8. Movement
9. The attack on Rheims can be described thusly: "DISASTER!" We have taken the city, but have suffered HUGE losses!
Paris doesn't fall but it's defenses are heavily weakened. We just need more troops. We are pushing them back though!
10. Retreat from Paris for healing, we don't have the units to mount an attack yet.
11. We pick off a 1HP Elite Rifleman in the field with a Knight!
If we can just take Paris, we'll have them totally screwed!
12. The Resistance in Rhiems will be over next turn. I'm conserving all units for a push on Paris.
13. Resistance Over - Musketman Rushed (It's starved down to 5 now!). Paris has just built Shakespears Theatre!
14. Movement
15. Caesar just demanded 100 gold and territory map! I said no and (surprise, surprise) he declares WAR! He immediately takes Gordium with 2 Cavalry. We have afew Immortals down there just incase this happened! WLTK Days break out left right and centre lol!
16. ****!! A French army appears OUT OF NOWHERE north of Kiev!! They MUST have come by boat (there's caravels near the coast) but armies can't be loaded onto ships?? CAN THEY? Kiev falls
NOW I'm MAD!! Delhi finishes Smith's Trading Co. Moving Troops wards Paris.
17. Roman's take Canton
Our army dies attacking Paris!! $HIT! We lose many troops trying to take Paris! This is NOT going to plan!
18. On the plus side, we've just marched into Cumae!
20. Indians come looking for peace, I accept for 1g/t, 22gold, World Map and Free Artistry (altho now useless) (theres been no battles so might as well take it!).
I'm gathering troops in Rhiems, theres afew in Lyons and Grand River. Sorry to leave it in such a sorry state but MAN i hate Riflemen!

I might have left them had they not been so foolish and declared war.
