Well you've been seen you should just launch the attack straight away really.

[barbu1977]

Fond a nice little stack on the grapes. With 5 Knights, 2 workers and 2 trebs. This is the battle log:

On the montain, 2 SW of Zohak

4/4 MW attacks 4/4 Knight -> MW DEAD, Knight 2/4
4/4 MW attacks 2/4 Knight -> MW 1/4, Knight DEAD

On the wine SW of Zohak
4/4 MW attacks 4/4 Knight -> Treb misses, MW DEAD, Knight 4/4
4/4 MW attacks 4/4 Knight -> Treb misses, MW DEAD, Knight 4/5
4/4 MW attacks 4/4 Knight -> MW DEAD, Knight 5/5
4/4 MW attacks 5/5 Knight -> MW 3/4, Knight DEAD
4/4 MW attacks 4/5 Knight -> MW 4/4, Knight DEAD
4/4 MW attacks 3/3 Knight -> MW DEAD, Knight 1/3
4/4 MW attacks 3/4 Knight -> MW 2/4, Knight DEAD
4/4 MW attacks 1/3 Knight -> MW 5/5, Knight DEAD
4/4 MW attacks 1/4 Knight -> MW 4/4, Knight DEAD

5-4 is not bad for units costing half the price.

This is the end of turn situation:

Very nice. I think I should head towards the plains tile 1E of the mountain at Zohak. This will make him question whether he wants to attack your stack.

[barbu1977]

I think you should first move your MDI in the marsh where they will be hidden. If he had no units in the sector, you may still want to be hidden 1 more turn. The most he can kill is 2 units with his 2 Knight, and I will kill them back at my turn. So if you can wait a bit before reveiling, that would be nice.

Also, you will not loose any turns by going in the marsh.

Found Rik to my east scoping around
Vet samurai attacks vet horse and samurai promotes 5/5
Vet samurai attacks vet warrior and samurai promotes 4/5.
I plan to take raze his furs city and replace it.

I am now strong to Tubby, Rik, Mistfit and average to you and Grahamiam.

Here's the current stack just out of Tubby's line of sight. I plan to fortify the samurais in front of the stack.

ive asked this in the other 2 threads so here i go again, 'do you think your 'winning' and if not who is'?

[Whomp]

Wow that's a tough call. I'd suggest this current blitz on Tubby will tell a lot. There could be a classic pincer move on Tubby since he can't see my stack. If he chooses to attack Barbu it could be his death and on to his capital and elimination of his king unit. Grahamiam is currently the strongest player in the game since his population and land size are the greatest. Mistfit and Rik are formidable and would expect something completely audacious from them.

Personally, I need more lux so this is a priority to get my empire in good shape and samurais fortified are nearly impossible to take with knights.

[BCLG100]

Well ive got an idea from looking at everyones spoilers.

[Whomp]

Barbu I'd rather you play the save since we need to coordinate activities here so I've forwarded the save to you.

I'm not sure what the best course of action is so I thought we should discuss this first.

Since we have the capability to split Tubby's forces I thought it would be a good idea to send your troops to his south to the black dot while my troops head straight west. He will have to commit either towards you or towards my samurais. The warrior in the city could be a farm opportunity for the elite MW.

Putting my two samurais on the mountains will give us complete control of the area.

Thoughts?

I've also looked at some of the mm'ing and noticed you can get hanging gardens in 2 by moving a citizen off a forest to a mined hill and then get a MW in 1 with the city south of the hanging gardens city by moving a citizen to that forest. You can upgrade some swords and archers as well plus there's some short rushing that can be done.
