Well we do not have any MWs in position to go through the Torusopolis route just yet. We have those workers doing FP work there, they can build a road connection in 6 turns. We lose gems when we declare on TNT correct? Anything else?
The capital could go off worker duty to get a few more mounties up there + the spare sword or two that are sitting around defending. Workers road to Torusopolis. Jungle mounties trend up toward the road headed south and cut it. We may need 10-12 mounties for the job, plus protection, and a few at home to keep MIA at bay. Though I think the MIAs have spawned so many cities they dont have the troops to really invade us quickly. They dont have a galley chain set up at Ithaca, it is currently empty.
Advantages are we will pick up gems and incense within a few turns IF we take Torusopolis quickly. By cutting the road they wont be able to reinforce their position, and we let KISS take on the brunt of their military.
I think 12-15 turns we will be ready. We can short rush mounties from the capital and have 4-5 more to add to the stack in 12 turns. I think Turn 135 would be ideal.
