Paddy says:
We be Horde
Ljube says:
Glory to the Horde!
PLATO says:
BLOOD OATH!
Paddy says:
Gramps may be back online soon too
Rob says:
hi
Paddy says:
The save is in folks
please get it loaded, and open the 1300bc thread
Ljube says:
I just watched a show on Discovery about Battle of Agincourt.
Rob says:
swampy...and the ground produces suctioning mud...
Rob says:
rained a lot
Paddy says:
report in from the Bards
they could not attack a 2nd time...
McMeadows says:
we didn't attack
McMeadows says:
we couldn't attack
McMeadows says:
WE GOT SLAUGHTERED BY DR
PLATO says:
That's not very incouraging for them
Paddy says:
so no change since we all saw DR's battle reporrt
Rob says:
But it does mean that we know where DR's attack force was...
Paddy says:
indeed
PLATO says:
It also appears that they are still in Invictus
Chris says:
hello peeps
Ljube says:
yes, since they now know about babylon, I expect they moved horses to invictus
Ljube says:
sorry
Ljube says:
aquarius
PLATO says:
Greetings Chief!
Ljube says:
OK, again: Since the DR now know about babylon, I expect they moved horses to Aquarius.
Chris says:
DR dont know about Babylon there only guessing
Ljube says:
And one or more vet immortals previously in Aquarius they probably moved to Antioch.
Ljube says:
I suspect they do know.
Chris says:
i suspect they suspect
Ljube says:
It was very easy to scout the babs
Chris says:
posting about it to try and get someone to say something
Ljube says:
just needed to send a unit out and then reload
Chris says:
Aqua is just trying to trick babs into admitting their part
Ljube says:
Anyway, they can't reinforce Antioch next turn
Ljube says:
so they will be waiting for us with what they have got
Chris says:
i would imagine aqua is also trying to sign babs up as an ally whilst posting accusing them of being ours
Ljube says:
I don't think that would be possible
Ljube says:
babs are pretty worthless as an ally and aqua is certainly not known for his high ethics and trustworthyness
Paddy says:
I would like to cover a what if?
Ljube and I have played this exercise a few times, so please hunour me folks
Paddy says:
what if DR have 7 units there next time?
Ljube says:
where?
Paddy says:
in Antioch mate
Ljube says:
7?
Paddy says:
where wlse matters to us
Ljube says:
well, we'll just have to pull out then
Chris says:
pull out
Chris says:
no we should attack
Ljube says:
better escape with tail between legs than be slaughtered
Ljube says:
like French at Agincourt
Chris says:
attack man what are you man or mouse
Janne has been added to the conversation.
Chris says:
destroy antioch and the dr are screwed
Ljube says:
true, but what are our chances?
Chris says:
destroy antioch and we will win this war
Ljube says:
if 7 units inside
Chris says:
how many in outr stack
Ljube says:
21, 10 horses
Paddy says:
only 10 horse can attack next turn
Chris says:
well i say attack
Chris says:
were building horses at good speed
Paddy says:
would be another 2 turns for all of stack
Chris says:
use the horse next turn use everything to finish it if necessary turn after
Ljube says:
ok, let's just wait a minute
Ljube says:
do we have intel on Antioch?
Ljube says:
from AM?
Paddy says:
no
Ljube says:
shame
Paddy says:
I am playing what if
Paddy says:
intell next turn
Paddy says:
keeping embassy and such up our sleeves
Ljube says:
well, it would have been better if intel could possibly have come this turn, but ok
Paddy says:
did you post that
Ljube says:
no, not really
Paddy says:
your request that is
Chris says:
we know where most of there forces were last turn
Chris says:
and we know a fair few are injured
Ljube says:
OK, CRUCIAL INFO!!!!!
Ljube says:
WE ARE STRONG AGAIN
Paddy says:
what is
Paddy says:
ahhhh
Paddy says:
well done
Ljube says:
we can now calculate their troops accurately
Paddy says:
wish our Ancient Cav were there
Ljube says:
and account for every last one of them
Paddy says:
good
Ljube says:
1325: Antioch 5, Aquarius 6, Invictus 4, marcopolis 3.
Ljube says:
1300 same, NO POP-RUSH
Paddy says:
good
Ljube says:
I don't know what is the matter with them crazy lot
Paddy says:
very confident they are
Ljube says:
ah yes, never let logic get in the way when dealing with the DR
Chris says:
ok so what are we here for
Chris says:
is the stack going 1
Ljube says:
or 2
Ljube says:
this is the main choice
Chris says:
1 would be surely safer
Ljube says:
but 2 would offer us cutting the route for reinforcements
Janne has left the conversation.
Chris says:
my vote if it counts is 1
Ljube says:
There may be another reason why they didn't pop rush
Ljube says:
they could have 3 immortals produced next turn regularly in Inner Sanctum, Aquarius and Antioch
Ljube says:
I bet they all finish in Antioch
Paddy says:
indeed
Paddy says:
way way to easily
Paddy says:
thus my question of 7 units
Ljube says:
7 units are unlikely
Ljube says:
but 5 are possible
Ljube says:
or 6
Ljube says:
that's too much still
Paddy says:
possibly
Chris says:
move the stack 1
Paddy says:
yes I too feel 1 is the way to go
Paddy says:
Ljube why did you say 2?
Paddy says:
straight south?
Ljube says:
we could cut some roads
Paddy says:
and gain what?
Chris says:
no point pissing about here 1 is the best move for us
Ljube says:
since we can't take Antioch, we might as well settle for severing it from the rest.
PLATO says:
1...no need to expose our boys just to cut a road that may prove useful to us in 3 turns.
Chris says:
safest for our troops all round
Paddy says:
Ljube, why can we not take antioch
Paddy says:
Ljube?
Chris says:
absolutely silly if aqua has horses on the way back to fight with us going two leaves our boys open to attack between turns
Chris says:
we could get a mawling between turns and never be able to recover
Ljube says:
by whome?
Paddy says:
Paddy says:
Ljube, why can we not take antioch
Ljube says:
if he as much as tries attacking our boys, teh horses retaliate and Antioch falls
Chris says:
read my sentence
Paddy says:
am I invisible here?
Chris says:
if dr have horse on the way back to antioch they would be able to attack our stack this turn
Ljube says:
OK, let's start from teh beginning, and to answer paddy's question
Chris says:
ok i said 1 plato said 1 paddy i think you like 1
Chris says:
so three of us like 1
Ljube says:
If Antioch has more than 3 units next turn it is very likley we won't be able to take it.
Ljube says:
bongo and I say 2
Ljube says:
that's 2 of us
Chris says:
you gopt to be kidding right
Paddy says:
Ljube
Paddy says:
where does Bongo say a word in this chat?
Chris says:
yes id like to know that too
Ljube says:
he and I had a chat yesterday
Paddy says:
Not relevant here mate.
Chris says:
well my pet hamster says 1
Paddy says:
are his thoughts posted in the 1300 thread
Ljube says:
no
Chris says:
sorry thats john not 1 he thinks im called john for some reason
Paddy says:
ok, lets stay focused on the ideas
Paddy says:
so 2 gets some roads cut?
Ljube says:
yes, next turn cuts road 6 from Antioch
Ljube says:
this will prevent further reinforcements from reaching antioch
Paddy says:
ok, so they still have iron as they have other roads
Ljube says:
so we could attack in 2 turns, not next turn
Paddy says:
yes, but we are caught i the open
Ljube says:
caught by whom?
Chris says:
the target should be to take antioch completely from dr not cut the roads
Paddy says:
caught by any Immortals they have
Chris says:
caught by dr ljube who else
Bongo says:
oh, hi guys
Paddy says:
welcome
Chris says:
or horse they may still have
Chris says:
hello
Ljube says:
hey have few immortals in the vicinity of antioch and attacking our troops would reduce the defence of the city of Antioch itself
Ljube says:
that would be the doom of the DR
Paddy says:
Bongo, the discussion is on where to move our stack
Paddy says:
and why
Ljube says:
OK, if we move 2 we don't risk being attacked.
Chris says:
how much is aqua paying you ljube
Ljube says:
I'll come back with more accurate calculation, but I estimate the DR forces in the Antioch region to about 2-3 immortals
Ljube says:
they also have 2 horses
Ljube says:
which they can't commit to attacking our stack because of the babylon threat
Ljube says:
assuming they build 3 more immortals in Inner Sanctum, Aquarius and Antioch, they will have max 6 in the region next turn
Bongo says:
I did a rough calculation of DR forces yesterday, as they are weak now I doubt they got much more, 2 immortals, 3 horses, couple of spears, thats it
Ljube says:
I sure hope they have no spears
Bongo says:
apart from the survivors of the attack against euphotica
Ljube says:
yes, appart from that, but a more accurate calculation is now required
Ljube says:
and by teh way, they had 3 surviving horses, one of them is in Invictus.
Bongo says:
It can't get much better, the defensive values causes too much uncertainity
Ljube says:
but we know about the location of their forces
Ljube says:
they are mostly on grass
Ljube says:
and the rest is in Antioch on hill
Paddy says:
ok, so saying we we go 2 this time
Paddy says:
then what
Bongo says:
then nothing more this turn
Paddy says:
next turn?
Ljube says:
one horse cuts road 6 from antioch
Paddy says:
lets not get caught looking only this turn
Bongo says:
depends on *DR of course
Paddy says:
indeed
Ljube says:
the rest moves to grass 8 from antioch where it is out of reach of immortals from invictus
Bongo says:
if they have large troops in the open (which attacked us) we clear them out
Bongo says:
if not, we attack antioch with horses
Ljube says:
It would be folly to attack us
Bongo says:
if the attack goes bad(too much defence)
Paddy says:
hmmmmm
Bongo says:
wee call it off and cuts roads connecting antioch to the rest of DR-land
Paddy says:
Plato are you reading this?
Ljube says:
I don't like attacking at all if the odds are very unfavourable.
Bongo says:
then we moce close to antioch with the rest of the stack
Ljube says:
An investigation into Antioch by the AM will be mandatory.
Paddy says:
it is organized
Bongo says:
the sacrifice of 2 horses to cut roads givevs us at least 2 more turns when their immortals can't reach our stack
Paddy says:
Chris are you reading this?
Ljube says:
yes
Chris says:
yes still not in agreement
Chris says:
our stack could easily get caught and trapped for dr to hit over and over next few turns
Ljube says:
with what I ask again?
Chris says:
going 1 means threy cant touch us this turn
Bongo says:
yeas,
Paddy says:
yes,, but going 1 means we do not cutr that road...
Bongo says:
but their immortals can rach us faster when they have healed
Ljube says:
they aren't going to wait fro them to heal
Ljube says:
I wouldn't
Ljube says:
too bloody suicidal
Paddy says:
yeah they were not hurt that bad
Chris says:
i see the argument your making but you have no way of knowing for sure what fast movers they have
Chris says:
your assuming two
Paddy says:
the troops ion Mount Massacre can not touch us this turn if we go 2
Ljube says:
no, I am certain of it
Paddy says:
they would need a lot to hurt our stack
Chris says:
how
Ljube says:
Mac reported the DR had a total of 7 horses
Ljube says:
they lost 4 of them
Chris says:
you have no way of knowing
Ljube says:
leaving them 3
Bongo says:
and next turn we will cut the roads forcing them to go in the open where we can hit them or take a detour
Chris says:
just because they called them the magnificent 7 does not mean they built no more
Ljube says:
it is unlikely they built any more because they faced a grim death at the hands of euphorica
Ljube says:
It is logical to assume they built only immortals since
Chris says:
logical to you but maybe not to aqua
Bongo says:
I agree with ljube on that one
Chris says:
i always like a good compliment of fast units
Ljube says:
yes, when not facing certain death
Bongo says:
same here but heavy hitters on roads are more useful
Paddy says:
and they have a great road structure
Ljube says:
yes, industrial they be
Bongo says:
less need for roads
Bongo says:
anyone want to guess what route their immortals will take out of mount massacre?
Ljube says:
4-1-2
Paddy says:
ok to recap - the proposal
1300 Horde Army Group East goes 2
1275 Horde Army Group East goes to Antioch 8, while 1 horse goes 2 cutting the roads at Antioch 6
1250 Horde Army Group East goes for Antioch as an entire stack
Ljube says:
yes, or if the intel is very good (i.e. 2 units in Antioch) then horses attack in 1275 alone.
Bongo says:
we should also cut the road at antioch 69
Ljube says:
yes, but how?
Bongo says:
with a second horse in 1275
Paddy says:
so 2 horse go 2 in 1275
Ljube says:
it is not so crucial
Ljube says:
cutting 6 from Antioch delays the immortals for 2 turns
Paddy says:
also we (may) have the Babs attacking Aquarius
Bongo says:
@ljube, the secon horse is as imortant as the first
Ljube says:
it would be nice, but I must repeat I don't see how that could be achieved
Paddy says:
If we could attack Antioch with the entire stack, I believe we may ba able to take the sucker
Ljube says:
yes
Paddy says:
question I have, is can we then hold it
Ljube says:
but to do that, immortals from Invictus must not make it there
Ljube says:
yes, with roads cut
Paddy says:
indeed
Paddy says:
one or both
Ljube says:
if we capture antioch, both roads will easily be cut
Paddy says:
I meant by 2 horses in 1275
Bongo says:
brb, some hauking to do
Bongo says:
hauling
Paddy says:
Plato?
Ljube says:
it is not possible to cut both roads in 1275 unless we capture antioch that same year
Paddy says:
no, but the other could be ion 1250
the horse need to be commited in 1275
Paddy says:
thus why I ask
Paddy says:
Chris?
Ljube says:
it is not possible simply
Ljube says:
as the invictus immortals would prevent it
Chris says:
that would risk losing 2 horses between turns
Paddy says:
ok
Paddy says:
ok, lets call the above Proposal 2 due to moving 2
Ljube says:
yes
Ljube says:
proposal 1 also has merit
Paddy says:
can we now look at proposal 1
Ljube says:
However, proposal 1 is hurt slightly by missing intelligence this turn
Ljube says:
Proposal 1 relies heavily on the chance that Antioch is weakly defended.
Ljube says:
and a horse charge
Paddy says:
1300 Horde Army Group East goes 1
1275 Horde Army Group East goes to Antioch 9, while 1 horse goes 3,2 cutting the roads at Antioch 6
1250 Horde Army Group East goes for Antioch as an entire stack
Paddy says:
I see it like that
Paddy says:
very very similar
Paddy says:
keeps us on the ridge line
Chris says:
that just losies 1 turn for ljubes plan
Ljube says:
ridge offers little protection against the onslaught of the immortals
Paddy says:
road still cut
Ljube says:
how?
Paddy says:
ahh right
Paddy says:
Paddy says:
hmmm
Paddy says:
been playing china in another game
Ljube says:
hehe
Ljube says:
china would rule this
Chris says:
2 is actually looking better now
Ljube says:
so would keshiks
Chris says:
still less risky to go 1
Ljube says:
yes, 1 is good if we mean to pull out if Antioch is too tough
Chris says:
the road cut is actually going to be more of a problem to dr than anything else we could do in the same timeframe
Ljube says:
yes
Ljube says:
hence my proposal last turn to move 2, but that one was way too risky as the fate of euphorica proved
Chris says:
id go with two as long as we dont pull out of an attack on antioch with the full stack
Rubyman has been added to the conversation.
Paddy says:
we go 2 and we are not puilling out
Chris says:
we must see this through no matter what
Rubyman says:
Hi
Chris says:
we have units coming online back home
Chris says:
hello
Ljube says:
wait, precisely that state of mind brought French to their worst defeat in history
Ljube says:
at Agincourt
Rubyman says:
A gathering
Chris says:
cant support two unless we commit to finishing antioch cant see the point
Paddy says:
Hi Stone
we are discussing where to move the stack
1 or 2
Chris says:
wed be prone to counter attaks every step of a withdrawal
Rubyman says:
k
Chris says:
what a complete waste of time and effort that would be
Ljube says:
I don't see how?
Ljube says:
how can DR counterattack?
Chris says:
well if antioch and aquarious stay in dr hands then all weve achieved is cutting one road 6 of antioch
Paddy says:
Once we in the opn, our horse rule
Chris says:
they still have iron hooked
Bongo says:
biggest problem with 1 is that the immortals from invictus can reach invictus in 2 turns
Rubyman says:
AC would hurt them
Ljube says:
yes, immortals can get from invictus to antioch in 2
Ljube says:
and we can't stop them
Bongo says:
even attack out of antioch, 2 would prevent that as we can cut their roads
Ljube says:
we can cut all roads
Paddy says:
what if?
what if they move units out of somewhere to block tile Antioch 6
Ljube says:
they would be slaughtered and antioch would fall
Rubyman says:
2 is good for war
Paddy says:
and stupid if out of aquarius
Ljube says:
yes, babs would take it
Paddy says:
a Grand game we are playing here
Ljube says:
yet evil desolators prooved very tough
Paddy says:
on a geo-political side
it had been a hope that we could have gone 1, then DR were hopeful we would leave,
DR have or are about to complete Republic, which they are dangleing under AM's nose
Paddy says:
which we get if AM get
Paddy says:
they are exerting pressure on AM to get us to go 1
Paddy says:
or 8
Ljube says:
if they are researching full speed then they are crazy
Ljube says:
that's why they can't upgrade their remaining warriors
Chris says:
ive changed my mind 2 is worth the risk this turn
Chris says:
but trying to walk out of there after is suicide
Chris says:
might as well use the bloody troops for their intended purpose
Paddy says:
I have had a good word that DR have only 1 - 5 gold
Bongo says:
my proposal:
this turn, stack moves 2
next turn: horses probe the defense by attacking 4-2
If the defense is strong we can just leave the horses stranded and run
If we take it, stack moves 1
Bongo says:
sorry didn't get to finish that
Rubyman says:
A long chat
Bongo says:
sorry guy, have to take a break, got a little boy that *refuse* to sleep
Ljube says:
ok
Paddy says:
hehe
Ljube says:
we'll be here
Rubyman says:
Rubyman says:
Work starts here in 25 mins
Ljube says:
really?early morning?
Rubyman says:
7am roll call
Paddy says:
Hope you have your snorkle packed today mate
Paddy says:
Ok, lets vote this one out clearly
1300 Horde Army Group East goes 2
1275 Horde Army Group East goes to Antioch 8, while 1 horse goes 2 cutting the roads at Antioch 6
1250 Horde Army Group East goes for Antioch as an entire stack
Proposal 2 yes or no
Paddy says:
Yes 2.
Ljube says:
Yes 2
Chris says:
yes
Rubyman says:
Yes 2
Paddy says:
ok. thank you.
Paddy says:
I propose that all members of the Horde have no further contact with DR in any email, msn chat etc
only baiting the buggers on the public forum
Paddy says:
Yes or No?
Paddy says:
Yes.
Ljube says:
No
Rubyman says:
Yes
Paddy says:
Chris?
Ljube says:
we need more voters
Chris says:
yes no contact at all
Paddy says:
not really
Ljube says:
ok, no contact it is
Paddy says:
Chris has 25 vites as cheif of the Blood Cell
Ljube says:
hahaha
Paddy says:
ok
Rubyman says:
Pad is Ozzie for Mad
Bongo says:
I say aye, (to what?)
Paddy says:
hehehe
Chris says:
Ljube says:
I suggest we annonce in teh public forum that our army is commanded by the great general bongo
Paddy says:
oh indeed
Paddy says:
I believe they know that
Bongo says:
we move 2 then?
Ljube says:
yes
Paddy says:
yes mate
Paddy says:
I think we do up a full battle roster and post that and the fact we have invaded
Paddy says:
call the bastards to us
Bongo says:
I got to post my thoughts on the next turn 1)In case I go AWOL 2)To let you find and correct major flaws
Paddy says:
Ljube says:
Chris says:
Bongo says:
got moonbars here as well
Ljube says:
Moonbars be their commander?
Bongo says:
nah, but he's the second active memeber
Ljube says:
lol, who is their army commander?
Bongo says:
aqua I think
Ljube says:
aqua does all
Ljube says:
so they are only 2?
Paddy says:
and masuro
Paddy says:
Trip pops in 2 - 3 times a week
Paddy says:
Sabrewolf is missing
Paddy says:
I get regular updfates when ever I turn my phone on
Bongo says:
hehe, aqua is pestering you
Ljube says:
I suggest that our General Bongo whenceforth be known as Marshal Boucicaut after the commander of the French Army at Agincourt. Before you curse me for this, let me tell you he planned everything well. It's just it wasn't executed because the nobles didn't obey.
Paddy says:
shame, he could have been a greatr allie with all this intel
Paddy says:
mad man
Paddy says:
Bong0 - General of the Horde.
Chris says:
i think my pet hamster should lead the troops in
Ljube says:
hahaha
Bongo says:
hehe
Bongo says:
what's his name btw?
Ljube says:
just know his family name
Chris says:
jaws
Bongo says:
"Jaws" the pet Hamster LOL
Rubyman says:
Funny
Ljube says:
Yes, let's put the hamster in charge!
Paddy says:
hehehe
Paddy says:
ok, what do we do with Mjolnir
Bongo says:
where is he(just closed the save)
Paddy says:
Antioch 9988
Paddy says:
99 from recently moved army
Paddy says:
88 sorry
Ljube says:
move him 1, he can't be attacked there
Ljube says:
AM blocking the road
Ljube says:
just tell them to move out of the way next turn
Bongo says:
or make him follow our army,
Paddy says:
which
Bongo says:
you moved our army 2 right? all of it?
Ljube says:
he could be hit by a horse
Paddy says:
the General of the Army in one corner
The Colonel of that Rgt in the other
Ljube says:
if we move him 1 he is safe, if we move him 2 he can be hit by a horse if one is in antioch or inner sanctum
Rubyman says:
Paddy says:
1 - done
Paddy says:
ok, where do you think the barbarians are up north
Bongo says:
what's wrong with 2, then he could join our army next turn
Bongo says:
ah, too late
Ljube says:
he can join if moving 1 too
Ljube says:
it's just he can be killed if we move him 2
Bongo says:
Not if the army gets moved according to y plan
Ljube says:
after moving 2, where should it go next?
Bongo says:
he'll have 2 defence, making it a 50/50, besides, I think DR need all units they can get
Ljube says:
they don't really ned any horses
Paddy says:
gents
Ljube says:
and we do need them
Bongo says:
the army? Depends on next turn, 2 is out of the question but 1,4 and 8 are alternatives
Ljube says:
yes
Ljube says:
1 is not really an alternative as our army would be vulnerable to immortals from invictus
Bongo says:
8 if we have to run, 4 if we take the city, 1 if we *almost* take it
Ljube says:
1 no way, because immortals would destroy us
Ljube says:
they will be in inner sanctum next turn, so they can attack the hill 9 of antioch
Bongo says:
not if we destroy those two roads I mentioned
Ljube says:
yes
Bongo says:
6 and 99 of antioch
Ljube says:
yes
Ljube says:
2 horses sacrificed, hmm
Rubyman says:
Bye
Ljube says:
for 50% more defence?
Ljube says:
is it worth it?
Rubyman says:
The bell tolls
Bongo says:
*If* DR take them that is, and we can pobbily counterattack them
Bongo says:
not for 50% defence but to delay the immortals
Paddy says:
Bye Stone, thanks
Chris says:
id like to know why we keep building horse surely Modern Armour would be better
Bongo says:
50% is just an accidental bonus
Ljube says:
yes, immortals are delayed if only one road is cut
Ljube says:
what constitutes modern armour?
Rubyman has left the conversation.
Bongo says:
the second road is to stop immortals reaching the hill 9 of antioch
Ljube says:
yes, very important
Ljube says:
this is a great insight bongo
Paddy says:
can we turn our focus to the save
Paddy says:
I did ask a question before
Paddy says:
ok
Ljube says:

Ljube says:
they can even be on that northernmost tip of our land
Chris has left the conversation.
Bongo says:
th AC can be moved some NE,N can't it, ending on a hill?
Ljube says:
yes
Ljube says:
that should show most of the land there
Ljube says:
and spot a village if there
Ljube says:
Double edge, I would keep on that hill

the second road.....
Ljube says:
no need to continue
Paddy says:
ok, Horde Long Eyes?
Ljube says:
Long eyes should have really been part of the stack for pillaging
Bongo says:
just found an annoying detail regarding antioch, those roadcutting wil delay them one turn only, unless the babylonians take aquarios
Ljube says:
but now, not much he can do, but sit there
Ljube says:
yes, but babs will take aquarius
Bongo says:
hope so, if not, we have to raze antioch instread of keepeing it
Ljube says:
yes
Ljube says:
or now
Ljube says:
depends on our success
Ljube says:
bongo, you seem quite certain we will take antioch
Ljube says:
I'm not so sure, never have been
Grandpa Troll has been added to the conversation.
Bongo says:
not sure, but we have a good change
Ljube says:
hate immortals, think only 3 movers can beat them
Bongo says:
if we fail, we have the opportunity to run away without getting slaughtered
Ljube says:
yes, so we should
Bongo says:
I'd call it a calculated risk
Ljube says:
hehehe, what about my rng-independent doctrine?
Ljube says:
proved to be right by aqua himself
Ljube says:
Bongo says:
As I told you in our chat, I don't think it is possible in a battle that large
Grandpa Troll has left the conversation.
Bongo says:
And it is a "tactic" I don't want to use myself
Ljube says:
well, this battle is not so large
Ljube says:
and can get very one sided
Bongo says:
we'll see. I doubt he can attack us with much
Ljube says:
shall we include Stormbringer in our attack?
Ljube says:
he can jsut make it there in time
Bongo says:
he started 8 of our army this turn?
Ljube says:
2 of metallica
Bongo says:
I'd say yes but he cant attack next turn, but we can always use reinforcements
Paddy says:
way too late for Stormbringer
Ljube says:
oh
Bongo says:
yep, just checked my map (busy with another save )
Paddy says:
you think I waiting on you two for every unit movement
Bongo says:
hehe, doubt it
Paddy says:

Bongo says:

Paddy says:
