Misread last turn's orders for Cow city, should be building a Granary, not a Worker (no biggie). Also, Iceburg should be renamed, looks like Silk Road is the most popular suggestion.

Question for the MoI:

Orders for BFC are to build a Knight. We strongly disagree about this. Is there another intention for building a knight?

25 Gold and WM received from CFC (accepted)
Sent WM (accepted) to CFC

Christening Units

New Galley in Equilibrium named AIS Chaser, an appropriate namesake for Arnelos' flagship in a 1790s-era naval combat game he played in a few years ago
New Worker in Elucidium Novum named Curly
New Worker in LuxInvicta named TempA
Bingo the Horseman renamed Sir Bingo the Knight (this should have been done last turn )
Horse Bingo, during the turn, was renamed Sir E_T the Knight and upgraded to a knight

Reconnaisance Forces

MI BigFurryInfantry (at Equilibrium 1-1-1-4) moves 3
MI Vlad Antlerkov (at Equilbrium 4-4-4-1) moves 8

MI MrWIA (in Equilibrium) moves 4-7-4
MI Igor (at PoV 4) moves 4-6 and forts

Naval Forces

AIS Seeker (at Hispanica 7-7-8-8) moves 2-1 and forts
AIS Hunter (at Hispanica 8-8-8-8-8-8-7) moves 1-2 and forts
(Suggestion from Arnelos: We should give up on corralling the Glueckskind and keep both Seeker and Hunter together. It would really ruin our day if the Seeker, running ahead of the Glueckskind, suddenly ran into a pair of GCA suicide galleys come over from the other continent. Should the Seeker be sent into shore along with the Hunter as a naval reserve or sent to be our picket watching for such suicide galleys?)

What??

If your talking about my spreadsheet, as I've told you in the e-mail, it's not fully updated. But the Knight will do until I change it to something else.

I'm likely going to do a University prebuild in BFC, because I beleave that the timing for Education and the prebuild end will be about at the same time.

btw, did it not occur to anyone that GCA's galley didn't disappear, It's hiding in that little inlet between not_panag and Alva which is barely covered in fog? (Eq 3-3-3-3-3)

	Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations: Deluxe Edition

Apparently, earthlink's incoming e-mail server is being overloaded with all of the e-mail that is coming from this new virus, so it bounced. I have PLENTY of free space for incoming e-mails (can you say 10 MEG, I know you could...), so the problem is that d*mn Virus!

On a lighter note, after looking at the screenshot, I'm wondering why the Consuls had sent chaser the direction that it did. Unless GCA had disbanded their galley (and what chance is THAT??), it's obvious that that GCA galley is in that little alcove, between not_panag and Alva.

BUT, not all is lost, we can still reach it next turn and attack it from where we currently are. Too bad it's were we can't get a Cat close to bombard it with first.

	Put an end to popups!

I did some checking and no one has Monarchy at this time. Also, GCA still needs Theo and Chiv and GWT does not have Theo. We will soon see as to the current direction of GWT's research, because with us getting Theo, the beaker cost has dropped from 960 to 720. If CFC also gets Theo, the cost will drop further to 600 beakers.

[EDIT] No one also has Invention, either[/EDIT]

We should let CFC know that we want to have that tech cost GWT as much as possible, so we should wait to give it to them until then. For instance, if GWT is researching Theo at 100 beakers per turn (possible with GA, but not likely because of all of the Ansar upgrades they are paying for), that would save them 2 turns of research if CFC also had it.
