Turn 132 - 70AD

[Rik Meleet]

Southern Brazuca.

 

[Rik Meleet]

The Wonder-lands.

 

[Rik Meleet]

And finally our core.

I will be sending the save to C3B, with a nice declaration of war and a battle report. I'll post that here later. When that is posted, the thread is free for comments.

And this is the text that accompanied the save:

My beloved Brazilian friends,

We gave you a hand in reducing your upkeep cost. We have removed 2 galleys and a warrior off your pay-list. See this as a gesture between friends.

To promote our alliances we suggest you lay down your arms and surrender. Our Ambassador Magnus Marcus will be open for your suggestions on how we can end this terrible war.

We still hope we can agree on the luxuries trade.

Battle report:
3/3 CFC galley sinks 3/3 C3B galley near the border in CFC's core. CFC galley = 2/3.
3/3 CFC galley sinks 4/4 C3B galley west of the lands that would belong to CFC if C3B didn't illegally call the border-treaty void. CFC galley = 2/3.
4/4 CFC Javelin Thrower defeats 3/3 C3B warrior that was too close to CFC's lands to be considered a good neighbour. Let us refer to him as "the fool on the hill". Javelin Thrower is now 1/4.

Regards,
Rik Meleet
CFC.

P.S. Oh yeah, we did find the horses C3B told us about to be non-existent.

Great Rik.

But what about screenshots of Brazucian cities?

 

[akots]

Good, good, lets kick them hard.

 

[Goonie]

They have horses now?!

"P.S. Oh yeah, we did find the horses C3B told us about to be non-existent."

 

[Chieftess]

And here you see C3B wasting an awful lot of shields ...

My favorite tactic. "You build it, we'll take it!".

Evil Rik, evil.

As for the horsies... It's possible they could be in their interior, but not in their cities.

 

[rcoutme]

No Goonie...they told us we did not have horses...

 

[Matrix]

Ooo, Rik, you mean ol' bastard.

 

[Rik Meleet]

Ooo, Rik, you mean ol' bastard.

I am not old !


Cheetah: the Brazuca screenshots were added on Provolution's request.
Goonie: No C3B has no horses (online). I am still irritated by them saying "No there are no horses on the continent" - causing us to stay away from The Wheel - while they perfectly well knew we did have horses.

What about the embassy shot, and investigation of cities, which is what Provolution was asking for?

 

[rcoutme]

@ Dave Shack...we didn't bother with the embassy. We saved the cash for rushes.

My my Rik. Quite the sarcastic son of a gun, aren't we?

I'm glad to see that war has finally been declared. I just hope this doesn't back fire, as DZ has pointed out.

All we have to remember is that we're playing against humans, not the AI.

How much did an embassy cost then?
