[Icmancin]

I graciously accept my nomination and I thank admiral-bell for seconding me. I am willing to answer questions anytime.

I second Ic and Nobody.

If a rival civ declares war on us would you favor an agressive policy, trying to go on the offensive or a passive policy, waiting out their attacks defensively until they will talk for peace?

 

[Icmancin]

A defenseive war is one that is very hard to win. We would have to hold a defense posture until we have mobilized a strong offensive force. Remember at 5CC we cannot have a large military due to lack of unit support. The chances of having a large offensive force at the time of an invasion or declaration of war by a foreign power is very slim. The answer is both. Defend at first, making some border raids, and then shift towards the offensive.

 

[RegentMan]

What is your stance on trespassing into a rival's territory for a turn or two to scout out prime spots for our armies? We need to be informed on what city to take from each empire, after all.

 

[Icmancin]

Reconnaisance missions are vital. It will annoy the enemy, no doubt, but it will be done if neccessary. I will try to gain as much information as possible without tresspassing, but of course I will give the order every now and then.

 

[Nobody]

I Decline my nomination. Because i am to busy to do it at the moment. I found the small tasks i had this turn to much with my hectic schedule, and the next month will have a bigger work load. I am considering quiting work anyway so maybe next term. I will run for a smaller position.

 

[Nobody]
