ATTN: Governors
RE: WAR WITH INDIA

We must halt any production of improvements in your province. Concentrate on building military units only. All gold is for Military and Foreign Affairs, please do not request to rush any improvements until this war is over.

Thanks

Governor Cheetah,

Please look over and respond to my plan for our military response to India's agression. It needs some ironing out so please join the discussion.

Four Rally Points Against India

 

[Cheetah]

As we are under attack in this province I think we should put military units in front of all build queues. It may be an idea to complete some of the Courthouses if it is possible, though that is unlikely.

I believe these cities should consentrate on defence and wait for the offensive forces. Please ask Military Department about which units are wanted.

If nothing else, place Musketmen as the first build in the queues.

I believe that it might be possible to save the worker SE of Grandmastoria. Moving it directly NW into the forest and then moving the Elite Pikeman on top of it, might be enough, as there are only two healthy Elephants in range. But I leave this decision to the turn-chat, president, domestic minister or whoever wants to have a say on this.

 

[Cheetah]

I am happy to announce that Huntington has been liberated. The Indian aggressors has met their destiny on the battlefield.

As Huntington was liberated our glorious forces found President FortyJ and Lady Chieftess together with other Fanatikan citizens who had been hiding in a casino. They were all healthy and well.

Now the question is are Ganges and Hyderabad going to be the 7th and 8th cities of Rhineland.

 

[Donovan Zoi]

Nice thread, Cheetah-

Hyderabad is held by the Russians now but is within your provincial borders. Ganges will probably end up in a new province as it is not.

Since we have the upper hand against India now, you may be able to consider switching Grabdmastoria and Trader's Inn to aqueducts; I will check with the Military Leader.

 

[Cheetah]

Actualy, Ganges IS within Rhineland's borders. But it is right at the border.

Octavinium
Musketman(5), Marketplace, University, Bank, Cathedral

Zorgonzolia
Musketman(23), Courthouse, Marketplace, Temple

Serenity
Musketman(3), University, Courthouse, Bank

Sturmandrang
Aqueduct(43), Courthouse, Marketplace, University

Trader's Inn
Musketman(26), Courthouse, Aqueduct, Marketplace, University

Grandmastoria
Musketman(18), Courthouse, Marketplace, Temple, Aqueduct

Huntington
Musketman(56), Library, Courthouse, Aqueduct, Marketplace

The Military Department can put a unit or two into the queues of Octavinium, Zorgonzolia and Serenity if they feel more units are needed for the war.

When the war stops (if it does so this turn chat) or we find that the Indians cannot threaten our cities and that we have enough units for now, I want the cities of Rhineland to stop building units (remove them from the queues) and switch to buildings.

 

[Cheetah]

Keep the build queues the same if not stated otherwise.

Huntington
Move laborer on the mine west of Huntington on tile SE to grasland. The city will grow at the same speed and will not loose any shield nor commerce.
Grandmastoria
Move the laborer on the mine closest to Trader's Inn to the mine Huntington just stoped working on.
Trader's Inn
Move the laborer on the flood plain north of the city to the mine Grandmastoria stoped working on.
Serenity
Put the entertainer to work.
Sturmandrang
Move one of the laborers on the flood plains NE of the city to the plains directly south of the city.
Ganges
Move the laborer on the hills NW of Ganges to the irrigated grasland SE of Ganges.
