We'll have an extra silk net turn if you want it, could we get gold for it?

Hi
We are interested by the deal.
How much gold are you asking for?
Joe.
Just one. I meant ther resource.
It looks like Epsilons' forces will come from Dune. We can see: 3 galleons, 5 cannon, 3 grenadeirs, 1 mace, 2 cats.
Also they just got Scientific Method and Piffle just got Rifling. We'll have it in 4 more turns.
Good luck.
Innovia
Innovia,
Yes we can see 2 galleons, who i suspect are going to Reading.
They have also got 5-6 cavalry units
Is there any chance that you could declare war, or provide any assisstance. (gold to upgrade units to rifles, stuff like that)
Thanks
Joe
Dear Loco,
Your call for aid has been well received. We are about to complete a galleon and we will send it south with 4 cavalry, more will probably follow. It looks like 7 turns, but I’ll be able to provide a more accurate ETA next turn.
In the mean time we were interested if you had plans for the stone resource? We are considering building Oxford.
All for one and all that,
Team Innovia
Hi Joe and Locopataimians,
Okay, so there is no short cut for galleys, so we'll be sailing out of Port Tropicana in 5 turns. Might have as many as 3 galleons full. We are still planning what to send and how best to use them. One thing we are wondering is about the galley we gave you. If you think you will need it then please use as you see fit, but if it doesn't any any missions lined up how long would it take to get it back to us? Not sure we could fill 4 galleons but maybe.
We'd also like at least 1 frigate to protect our fleet, how much longer for chem?
Good luck at Mycenia,
1889 and Team innovia
Innovia,
After playing the ave, your galley is nowhere to be found. I'm afraid it may have been killed, as there is an Epsilonian frigate in the area. This frigate is lurking near new B&O and may be tough for your galleons to get around. You probably need to either bring a frigate with your or try some kind of evasive action.

Team Loco,
We were planning to land an invasion force near Dune, but finally decided that it would be imposable with Epsilon sailing ships up and down our coast. Until we find an opportunity for something bigger we are planning on sailing our galleons along the East coast from Port Tropicana and gift units to you. What type of units do you think would be most helpful to you right now?
Your Ally,
Innovia
We have just delivered 3 highly experienced cavalry regiments. We'll return with more in a few turns and try to get some Grenadeirs to you.
Also we'll finish Steel in about 4 and move on to Steam Power. Aloha will finish Scientific Method about the same time. How much longer for your research?
We finish Steel next turn and will send it the turn after that. What are you researching and how much longer will it take?
Team Innovia
Dear Innovia
Sorry for the long period of no contact, it's been such a long time since the game has been moving.
We are researching Eccomnics although at a very slow pace, I don't know for sure, but with science at 0 it takes 134 turns, however i am going to ask Chamnix to get the tech rate up again so i will give the real time it will take next turn.
On the war, we are down to three cities, two of which we know Epsilon know about and one that is concealed at the moment, we are hoping to use this as our base for the future of Loco, providing they don't find it! We are very grateful for the support you have given us, however it seems like the nation of Loco will never come back from this loss.
Thanks Joe,
We wonder if you would be willing to tell us how long Economics would take at 100% and how much of a deficit would that create per turn. If you are far enough along maybe Innovia could provide the funds for you to finish you research.
Aside from that is their any other assistance we could provide? Epsilons war machine is probably moving too fast for us to send troops, but we can try to send a galleon if you are interested in evacuating refugees.
Should you fall we will rename one of our own cities Locopatamia so that the glory of your deeds will live on to inspire future generations.
Your allies,
Innovia
Dear Innovia
We have one city left which epsilon can't see and which i am not sure has sea access (the city is Madras) so evacuating refugees is going to be very hard without alerting Epsilon to our position. On the science front, forget us, we won't be researching anything fast so if you need economics then i would research yourselves because we will be taking an age over it. (it would have taken 43 turns at the highest science possible with three cities so with only one city it will probably take approx 100 turns at best!)
We would like to offer you our world map, since we won't be needing it for much longer and might help you in any future war with epsilon.
One last thing. What would be your position on a Loco retirement, we only have one city and I don't want to force Chanmix to carry on playing for an essentially dead nation. We could offer you our maps, money and units and offer Epsilon the last city.
Thanks for all your help.
Joe Harker
Caretaker Dictator of Loco
Hi again
Chanmix has just played the save and Epsilon can see our borders. I have instructed him to give you our treasury and maps next turn.
Farewell from the Land of Loco

Dictator on the run!
Sad news. Your map and gold will be welcomed.
I think the issue of retirment was raised a few months ago in the main forum and I don't think anybody had a problem with it. I certainly don't.
Also Team Innovia extends an unconditional welcome to any Loco members who wish to continue the MTDG afterward.
Your Allies,
