Why not? Triremes are super cheap. Save some cash and get some irons (from Catherine).

These frigates served as floating cannons. Even cannons can't fight them at equal footing until artillery.

trireme---->frigate is pretty expensive in vanilla. Probably the most expensive ratio of the game(era wise). But so much powerful

I think it's around 160 approx. per upgrade. Well thanks to our ever lasting GA we are able to upgrade everything we wanted in time...and i only have 1 market! Other cities are close to finish theirs.

from an undisclosed location: do not trust the chinaman, our valiant fighters in Antium report a highly mobile force of at least 6 CKNs afield, this may only be the tip of the iceberg (metaphorically)

Edinburgh is under siege of persian troops. The regiment of pikes is going to defend the city to the last breath.

@EEE_boy:
My fair lady, Catherine, the group of Mandekalu cavalry near russian border doesn't intend any harm to your people. These horsed troops have to stay motionless for a while before the barbarian pikes lurking there will not endanger them.

 

[Tabarnak]

What is this language? This means Edinburgh?

Russian is my calculated guess

 

[Foffaren]

Did he change the name of the city after all? We shall never know.

 

[Tabarnak]

Russian is my calculated guess

Kazaks speaking russian? Maybe.

 

[scooterplus]

Kazaks speaking russian? Maybe.

well I hope so but if not, then Google Translate is awful lol

Edinburgh English-Russian

'Mandekalu Calvary' is singular, Lady Catherine will see the best hospitality to him. However the plural 'troops' also puzzled Catherine, perhaps if wasn't for Persia, the Songhai-Egypt alliance has other plans?

This would not suprise me one bit! Who knows in who's hands egyptian gold ends up in. I have my suspicions.

 

[RStark]

I have a russian version of the civ, because the game is not translated into Kazakh
Russian is my second language. Majority of the population of Kazakhstan speak Russian well, because Kazakshan was a part of Soviet Union.

The regiment of Mandekalu cavalry came close to russian borders in order to destroy a barbarian camp.

 

[Tabarnak]

Thanks for the insight! Always nice to learn about foreign languages and history of civilizations...hmm wait...of course we love it we are civfanatics duh

@Egypt: The border Japanese city has libary, university and workshop, so Catherine can't decide a fair price that will benefit Russia in this trade. Unhappiness is manageable at this level anyway.

Pharoah encourages Catherine to give the situation more consideration, unless she wishes to enter in open conflict with our people. To be sure, you have a production advantage, but we will do our best to drag you down with us, where the Chinese, Persians, or Songhai can trod on us together.

Is Satsuma such a heavy price to pay for your imminent and future peace and prosperity? Everything north of the river the city is on would be yours, is this not enough? Indeed, Pharaoh's soothsayers are warning him of fire weapons raining suns from the sky, and madly proclaiming that Satsuma is less than 12 tiles from our capital. We have no idea what they're talking about, but perhaps you and your wise mystics do?

 

[Foffaren]

The Aztec recognize Satsuma as russian territory and should not be surrendered to empty threats! If it comes to blows know that Monty will openly support the great russian civilization.

 

[EEE_BOY]

Well, Catherine wants to handle this crisis very carefully, because she worried that if the Egyptian Pharoah is hurt in this dimension, the other Pharoah might suffer in another dimension. She has to think about it......

 

[Onan]

Your paranoia exceeds all expectations, it's fabulous.

 

[RStark]

Edinburgh has eventually fallen to the hands of the evil persian king.
The city was liberated and got a fake independence, and now it is a city state strongly allied to Persia.

The coastal Borderline City of Singhai took first hit from the persian frigate. Askia was forced to purchase a regiment of cannons in Borderline City despite of expensiveness of this weapon. The cost of these cannons were 390 pieces of gold! It was a really hard choice to make.

 

[Tabarnak]

More frigates are joining the fight. I let you 3 more turns to defend.

Side note : Free ruin from American land for Persepolis

 

[EEE_BOY]

Aztec: watch out, the real targets of these annoying frigates might be your coastal cities. The land army of Persia 'seems' to be less threaten for now, but we maybe fooled by the screenshot.

 

[Onan]

Edinburgh is under siege of persian troops. The regiment of pikes is going to defend the city to the last breath. .

A unit lost when a city is lost is lost for no good reason. Fortified on defensive terrain outside, at least he'd do some damage to attacking units.

So, still no proposal from Catherine. We do not seek to bully you, indeed, we are incapable of doing so. We only seek enough space to avoid the shared path of mutual ruin. But a decision delayed is a decision nonetheless. Day by day, Catherine seems to be choosing mutual ruin. We prepare for this, in the absence of anything constructive from the Lady of the North.
