2850 BC Orders, Report, and Discussion

Standing unit orders:
Visigoth Slaves - move W (from oliverfa)
Magyar Warriors - move W (from pikesfan)
Madrid Expedition - move NW (Crousto)

Movement orders required for:
TEG (Interim commander - Togas)

Madrid (Arnelos)
Standing Orders (see Turn 8)
Producing: Spearman (1 turn)
Current WF: 3,20 (Cows, Wheat)

Arnelos - I am afraid that your wonderfully specific orders haven't been followed to the letter, and as such we are off target for growth. We also do not actually need the game this turn to produce the spearman in 1 more turn - could you go over your orders again? Hopefully we'll be more diligent from here on out about following them.

Pamplona (ruby_maser)
Producing: Warrior (2 turns)
Current WF: 7

Science
100% - Writing in 22 turns
Check if we can reduce slider without changing turns.

Diplomacy
If we are contacted by anyone via in-game diplomacy, do not continue to play the turn without guidance from Lord Togas. We expect the Madrid Expedition to meet a Glory of War warrior shortly, also do not continue to play the turn if this occurs, and let the team and Lord Togas know. Present plan is to trade them Bronze Working and Alphabet for Warrior Code and The Wheel.

Screenshots
Please take screenshots that show all our explored terrain (World Map), city interior shots of Madrid and Pamplona for their governors, demographics (F11), and if the present scores are not included in any of these, include a shot of the score listing as well. Be sure to turn the grids on for the world map (ctrl-g).

Please provide orders, feedback, and suggestions below. When the turn is played, the player will post a report in this thread, and then discussion on the turn's developments will proceed.

Edit: Added Crousto's order for Madrid Expedition, and removed the WF change for Madrid, as per Arnelos' directions.

I'll have to look at that. Please feel free to change the production so that we waste as few shields as possible on that final turn (getting extra trade and food from the wheat) if that's workable.

I've been distracted from the PTW game this week, so I'll have to see whether I can take some time out this weekend to look at Madrid more closely in order to create a new plan.

Madrid expedition will go north this turn.
I've made this plan to be sure that we'll meet GoW as soon as possible (ie this turn) :

Should we send this to Ghengis Farb? (to tell them to move their warrior SE)

Excellent Crousto! Yes, I think this type of collaborative image will help smooth things over more. Since Togas sent the last PM to them, I think adaMada should send the picture, so that he is seen in a good light as well.

Great!
And just to be 100% secure, I'd prefer that you email the image as a file to them... Don't send them this image's link (because I use the webspace where the image is to store stuff about this game, currently the tech race table and screenshots of the turn I played... that should not fall in evil hands )

I copied the image to my computer, then sent Ghengis the .jpg. Very good work, Crousto!

Quite right, Señor. We should note where he goes.

I have updated the top post with Crousto's and Arnelos' orders. The only remaining unknown order is for TEG. Now that the Madrid Expedition is poised to meet GoW, what shall TEG do?

Shall they:
- continue generally N, to scout the lands of ND and eventually of GoW?
- head E, to determine the extent of the northern edge of the jungle?
- head S, to resume the exploration of Cow valley?

Won't be long now. ND has sent the save to GoW, and GhengisFarb is online.

GhengisFarb just sent us the save. As always, I await word from Lord Togas. In the meantime, here's a juicy morsel sent along with the save from GF.



They met TEG and the Madrid Expedition simultaneously!

Curious. Looks like Ghengis plays the "good guy" on his team. Can it be an strategy?

Looks like they didn't climb the mountain finally.
I change my orders for the Madrid Expedition to NW then.

Is it me, or does it look like the GoW Warrior on the left came OUT OF ND's territory?

it needn't to mean they came out of ND's territory, our warrior was moving up in the right imagebut seems moving down.

The save always arrives at the worst time for me.

Right now I'm in the middle of watching the Green Bay/Atlanta playoff game at my brother's house. If Dejon or Arnelos is free, please play the turn. If no one has played the turn when the game is over, I'll take care of it.

My Packers are being beaten so badly I had to escape to my brother's computer to be spared the humiliating defeat.

I am doing the turn right now. Will post shortly.

Both GoW and Lux Invicta offered us the same deal -- Warrior Code & Wheel. I offered GoW Alphabet for the two, and threw in 5 gold as a gift.

It's a paltry sum, leaves us 26g for the 25g needed to buy Iron Working from Lux. But after this whole thing has been resolved so easily, I feel it's a good gesture on our part and should fully smooth over any lingering bad feelings or regrets about our little scuffle.


TEG -- moved NW to get a better view of the coast and to see what the GoW warrior would do next. Plans for TEG should be to either explore north or explore south. I'll leave that up to group discussion.

Madrid -- moved west, discovering a valley to the north east of Madrid that is starting to look promising.

Magyars -- moved west, found a glimpse of the ocean to the west.

The ND scout is north of Madrid and is now only about 4 turns away from the Goodie Hut if he moved in the best possible direction.

Spearman in Madrid next turn. Warrior in Pamplona in 2.

Our Mil Advisors indicates that Lux and ND have a stronger army than us, but that GoW is equal to us in strength.

Images are taking an eternity to upload using my brother's dial-up connection, so I will edit this post and include the usual link once the process is complete.

Ok, I've figured out my problem. My brother has no imaging software and I can't convert these screenshots to .jpg, they remain .bmp, each one is 2.5 megs and with dialup and my limited web space, no wonder the uploader is giving me problems. :/

I'm going to email the pre-send save to Dejon. Dejon, please take screenshots and post them in the usual fashion. I am now going to go drown my sorrows in alcohol before I put away the Brett Favre jersey for another 8 months.

So we will have a spearman in Madrid if the ND Scout comes knocking at our door.

Togas - I noticed you haven't posted in the Saved Game Thread in the general forum - did you send the save game on to Vox?

I sent it on, just forgot to post to the save game thread. From looking at the thread, Vox has already posted that they sent off the save to the next team.
