Probably better to move the discussion here.

That indeed includes showing the good fortune Lady RNG has given DR and reveiling DR has at least 5 horsemen. From the battlereport we take it that 1 promotion has been granted to the last horseman (now 4 vet horseman and 1 regular).

I guess the principle I'm raising here is how much information is too much? How much should the gathering of strategic intelligence be so easily gained from others instead of having to find it out yourself through your own ingenuity?

To give just one example.....if I planted a Spy and was able to see the entire army of another civ through the military advisor's screen, would it be reasonable to give that information to all other players?

Personally, I believe that it would be fair to share this infomation.

Aqua, is it that you have no allies with whom to share this infomation?

irrelevant
Either we send e-mails to all teams or simply broadcast it on the forum, if we wish to share the battle reports with everyone, we do so.

I think McMeadows is right - noone can do anything to prevent this. And we have already agreed to send battle reports.

But think about this - the people will know only the force with which you attack. Separating the units in two groups or renaming them each turn will confuse everyone else.

A horseman can't attack twice in 1 turn. 5 Attacks by horsemen have been performed on our units = 5 horsemen (at least).

Yeah if you have contact with a team you can say anything you like to them or post anything for them to see.

Except maps of course

You seem pretty intent on informing all other teams of our attack strength.

Are you that pissed that your premature attack failed?

I was wondering if Ormuzd understood how I came to 5. Just clarifying. The actual battle has been quoted often enough.

I'd just like to note I personally agree with the legality of this. It is Information that can be shared as much (or as little) as the two knowing parties, the attacker and the defender, wish. In Aqua's example, yes, it would be quite okay to post the military numbers your spy gave you if you wanted; it's your information and you can do with it as you like.

	Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

thanks, McM, I could have never realized that

but I wonder - if DR has only five horsemen? what should mean if they attack with 4 horsemen 3 turns later while they have different names - did they loose a horseman to the barbs, did they rename those units or they have simply 9 horsemen.

Therefore I added (at least).
But I see you have your maths worked out pretty well... Aqua hasn't shared with us the names of his assassins, so the number is all we can use.

In my new-found spirit of information sharing, enlightened as I now am by all your wonderful gossip, I'd like you to know that we actually have 23 Horsemen, and we swap their names around every 3 turns.

And they're coming soon to a place near you!

Incidentally, that's rather strong terminology for our Horsemen, considering it was you who attacked us. I would think "Defenders of Justice" would be a more appropriate term

Excellent. Now the rest of the world can see how dangerous your crazed horse packs are - and will join us in a massive preemptive strike to rid the world of your threat!!!
