Term 6 - Office of the Secretary of War

SoW Rihiter--
There's a warrior in Abydos that is no longer necessary if you'd like to release that unit (or disband). It would only reduce the happiness by 1. The garrison at Old Sarai is not necessary either and could move to Auda City which is quite angry right now with 2 :mad:.
 
Mr SoW,
are there any spare troops that could serve as a scout north of Germany? I really feel we should be keeping an eye on them.
 
SoW...we have been talkng about attacking Berlin in another thread. however we dont know what sort of troops are in Germany. Any way you can send a brave unit to give us a report.( any chariots close by)
 
Order to send our War Chariot on a reconnaissance mission to Germany has been given in my instructions in the last turn chat. I don't know if DP has followed that order. If yes, WarChariot is already sent.
 
OK rihiter..I just looked and it was moved to germany..sorry about that. I was away and didnt read all the orders. Thanks... So far they look relatively weak. :)
 
I didn't have much time lately so I didn't read all the new threads but I'm reading that thread about attacking Berlin right now, and I will respond to it.
 
Maps updated in Great Atlas, including unit maps and some maps showing German cities to which we have line-of-sight at the moment.

A couple of things came up while I was preparing the maps:

  • I don't think we need any units to banish the fog on our northern peninsula now that the borders of MG and Abydos have expanded. Therefore, the swordsman between Abydos & BW could be doing something more useful (maybe trimming Bismarck's mustache :mischief: )
  • I'd be fascinated to know how Germany are so far in front of us on the power graph. Maybe they are guarding resources, like the unit north of Hamburg, but they certainly don't appear to be guarding Hamburg or Dortmund. Maybe they're all in Berlin protecting the pyramids...

But the thing is, they are much more powerful than we are on paper (the power graph in the recent cartography update). Russia is the same. I'm a little concerned about security. Even though they probably won't attack us, our power chart is flat, while theirs keep growing. If we want attack Germany, wouldn't it be a good idea to start building some units and moving them to the south? We have a bit of ground to make up. What are our plans, Mr. SoW?
 
Dear Mr. Fetch,

I can not make any plans until we decide do we want to attack Germany or not. After the discussion probably there will be pol about this. And after the validation of that pol's results ( if it will be "Yes attack" ) I'll be able to make some plans and military production requests. Until then I can just discuss with others in the thread about war and move south some of our units which we have already.

Regards,
Rihiter, the Secrtary of War.
 
Rihiter...I havent check that chariot but can it be promoted to sentry...it would make your spying easier and help to see stacks coming if we attack
 
I don't see that as a good idea. It's a waste of experience in IMHO. The same efect we can get by moving the unit few tiles further in german territory ( during spying ), which doesn't cost us enything.
 
Could be, but it doesn't matter to us now.

I think russia may have had a GA a while ago

Could be. I think we ought to be building some military units regardless of whether we go to war. I understand it would be better to know if we are going to war to build more effectively, but if we fall too far behind on the power graph we may end up in a war we didn't want :(
 
Consideringwe dont really have the cash to upgrade currently, producing some crossbows may be a good idea, although maybe the horse archers can wait.
 
If we decide to go to war I will need some units, but if not I realy don't see a reason to build more units. So first lets think it over, and don't do anything not needed.
