War with RB

Pictures!

When I logged in I was greeted with this:

Spoiler :

I chose CivPlayers, of course, but it doesn't really matter, since CivFr can vote themselves leader:

Spoiler :

Here's the front:

Spoiler :




We didn't run espy against RB last turn, so we can't revolt the city, but it doesn't matter because they have more defenders than we have Knights that could attack the city. They have abandoned Starfall, though. And why can't we see the GP that was just born?

Spoiler :

Wouldn't you know it's a Great Spy. Let's just hope they send it east and not against us. In that picture you can also see that WPC has gifted us two archers :confused: We have two Knights in their land, please tell me that we're not planning on gifting those :please:

Here are some graphs and our army:

Very important! 2metra / bistrita, I had to select our next build in KwaD. I put it to wealth so you can find it and correct it easily.
 
We conquered rb ex globe city.Killed the axe with a cahriot at 70%.I will not hav e time to play turn tomorow so what i was considring its to let enough units in our new city to be safe and move th rest towards estern dealers.A cp player sugested me to atack theyr retreateink muskest bt those are defende by a rifle and we most like will loose 3 knigs to kill that one and killing the other 5 units will be poible if we win all batles .I would rathe not do that.

Becasue i will have no time to play tomorow and seems like metra dint come back i will wait sugestions 2-3 hours from now.If we consider we need more time to discus here are 2 alternatives : ask for abreak or someone ese to play turn tomorow( i am talkig here about GMt+2).
 
Since I read this, I thought I'd just comment that if you ask for a pause I will grant it since there have been granted pauses for other teams who have needed them due to time constraints in RL.
 
I am back, but with >6 hours for 2 nights and 3 days cumulative sleep I am not ready to play tonight. It might happen that I still have time to play tomorrow after work (that is in 22-23 hours from now).
 
With 25 Canons, I think our best bet is to keep everything together in one big SoD. With that, we can take out anything that RB throws at us. If we start branching out with our knights, they can start to pick us off.

But I think you should play the turn however you think best, bistrita. My preference would be not to pause the game to get team feedback, since you already have a better understanding of how things look right now, and the turns are already taking a long time with this split timer.
 
Bistrita took out the RB retreating stack - 1 rifle (at 10%, but this is it - only those who take 10% battles win those :D ), and then 4 muskets. Too bad we lost 3 knights in a row on 78%. I know for myself the game remembers and balances :) Another annoying thing is RB last musket survived at 1.1 HP

This is the map CP had sent us:

So, RB attacked us in the second half of t176:

About equal exchange of units - 6 vs 8 if I counted correct. Too bad they got a GG and they got it so close that it take part in this turn battles.

I hope we have enough canons and can take out their defenders in ED.
 
:lol: I'll try to log in tonight to take pictures if I can. I'm going to the Dodger's game straight from work, though, so I might not be in any condition to log in by the time I get home.

Glad to hear we took Eastern Dealers. Even exchange of units right now favors us, since RB has to kill three units for every one we have to kill. However, that damned Great Wall is really paying off for RB with all this fighting being done inside their borders. They're going to get another GG or two before this is all over.

What are our plans for our GG born last turn?

Enjoy your time, buddy :cool: I will take some screens when I get home from the office.

It was not totally even exchange, but was not heavy defeat too. Bistrita told me RB got some serious stack there and we will lose some muskets from our "Starfall" group too unable to retreat. Reportedly RB got 14 rifles last turn, but they already have no "Core" as it can be seen. All their core cities beside their capitol are at size 4-5. I was told they make 288 gpt and they have like 3000 gold to repay to Uciv. And yes, our allies are not sleeping either. They produce units and throw them at RB with success so far. Ot4e is reportedly headed towards Rb's Great Lighthouse city and despite the heavy fighting will take it in 1-2-3 turns. This will be 1 more heavy hit on RB. I wonder if it is worth we to try to push from our side down south by the coast and south-west to get to join front with Ot4e.

Yes, GW is great, I know :) Thinking back about the game, TGW was a side-product of my plan to get settling the stone and building The Pyramids. We had quite problems with barbarians too.


What are our plans for our GG born last turn?

Regarding this, we were thinking to make a commando and capture some city of RB, but after the fierce counter- attack they made us, we had to reevaluate things. We just had some chat with Bistrita about this:

Bistrita: i seen pictures

2metraninja: ok, well, they have no empty cities
we will have to wait for our commando
but they might have no empty cities because they whipped those rifles last turn
next turn we might have better shot
but we will be pushed back at Starfall
Bistrita: they have one
but dont know if worth a comand o for that
2metraninja: next turn we might have better chance with 2 empty cities?
if completely empty we can take 2 cities
another consideration is if we take those, we must raze them. but razing is not favoring us
Bistrita: yes very true we dont want to raze
2metraninja: we have the advantage of RB core cities being at our side and if we raze those all, what we get
Bistrita: well ot4e very close to their core as well
and no many buildings survive
and Mz getting cities very easy
2metraninja: I would like to see our commando helping us with surprising raid which will remove culture for our main group to possibly hammer RB's unexpecting stack/s
Bistrita: yes i was thinking same
so beter no use
2metraninja: yes, agree
Bistrita: if a great opportunity arise
the yes
2metraninja: just to wait and keep him for really good use
yes
 
The destruction continues:

But we have to keep an eye out for UCiv. Wonder what they're whipping...
 
Yes, after their call for a peace conference, they might have decided to grasp the sword when the pen is not helping.
