with all due respect ohwell, no number of spearmen would have prevented this.

Actually with all due respect if we had a larger military they would not have attacked us. They would not have threatened us in the first place.

 

[Immortal]

well, we will have a heavy military build-up now, so hopefully we can make the best of a bad situation

Note: I was also in favour of having a large defensive force

 

[donsig]

I think military forces will become quite popular in Phoenatica soon.

We must ensure that our citizens do not panic. There is no need to learn American. Phoenatican will be spoken in Washington!

Once we retrain our warriors many nations will quickly rethink their war plans.

I just want to remind everyone that this was our destiny. Once we got the Sign from our God, would our Soldiers(Warriors) become Immortal, and our quest could start.

This is that moment. This is what our ancestors were talking about.

Our preparations were just right, everyone expects us as weak now, when we get our Immortals online, guess who would laugh last!

 

[donsig]

We sent some people over to Egypt and and they made a deal to buy four new technologies from our friends to the south and east. We have aggreed to pay Cleopatra 5 gold per turn for 20 turns.

We also have three regiments of IMMORTALS now!

Game put on hold for reasons beyond our control (MOM).

Welcome friend! Now, grab one of those pointy sticks over there - the Americans are coming!

 

[Strider]

Why don't I just borrow one of the Immortal swords? I'm in pherris and I've got three of 'em here. (The Cabinet likes me so they guard me well

 

[Ohwell]

Yes, Welcome Strider. Your input and services are appriciated

So, Informant Donsig, how is the situation? (Haven't been able to download the file now... )

Seems like you are more interested in this entire game than I am!

Well whoever we are at war with shall soon feel the might of our new spears and our elite swordsmen!

I don't know if I'm more interested than you are, Ohwell. I'm just able to post while I'm at work and the game is much more interesting than work.

So, Informant Donsig, how is the situation? (Haven't been able to download the file now... )

The current debates revolve around turn chat and COC (Chain of Command). The CDB and War Church threads are getting buried. This concerns me since we're still at war with six countries!

But the members of the CDB should be happy to know that we have learned how to ride horses from the Egyptians! I think our newest settler will try ro settle near a supply of the beasties. The retraining of our warriors has begun! As noted above we now have 3 immortals in Pherris.[dance] I think all cities except Fox Nest have been ordered into military production. (There might be one city making a settler.)

Heh, it seems like everybody on these fora use worktime to post

Well now that we have horses I say we should focus on making alot of these as they upgrade to future units, and the speed is worthwhile. Immortals can be sent in later, the horsemen are good starting units for taking border and backwater cities, while immortals are for the tougher cities.

And I certainly hope our spearman garrisons is adequate

We are still at war with most known Civs right? I say we should try for peace with the farther away ones, and attack the closer and weaker nations. This will save us units, and possibly cities.

But I am happy to hear our military is more than adequate

 

[donsig]

We don't actually have horses yet Ohwell. We got horseback riding from Egypt and we have a settler that will try to make a city near horses. Making horsemen is still down the road a bit. Only one turn was played on Sunday so not much has changed.

 

[Strider]

Only One turn? What happened that made them quit?

So are plan is still to attack the Americans? I wonder who's going to win.... Things are looking up for us just as long as we don't get units coming in from all 6 countries( I mean one after the other)

"with all due respect ohwell, no number of spearmen would have prevented this."

Sorry that's wrong.The AI picks on weak players.It knows full well how many military units you have.If you keep a large enough standing army the AI will never attack.My original stagegy in the civ3 game was isolationist so I should know.
We are in this mess because we are weak.I been calling for barracks and veteran units since day one and have met nothing but resistance,being told I don't know what I'm talking about.

 

[donsig]

marshalljames - we weren't considered weak becasue we didn't have barracks and veteran units, but because we had one speamen and some warriors.

We are getting barracks now.
