MoW Mission and Goals
This is the official home of the Ministry of War, at least whilst it's under me. It is here that I will post the goals, priorities and orders from this ministry.
The priority at this moment is preparation for our offensive operations against GCA. When that time arrives, the goal will be to destroy GCA by any means deemed necessary.
Defense is not much of a concern at this point. GCA and CFC were embroiled in a war for a very lengthy period of time and neither has the capability of launching a powerful offensive against us. GWT and CGN are over the ocean and could not send an invasion fleet even if they wanted to.
The invasion will be launched on turn 121 with a very large army of MIs, NMs, Horsemen and other supporting units.

Turn 9: 3600 BC
Nothing but scouting for the time being. Right now we only have one Warrior to scout with, though this will change soon.
The NORTH arrow here is a mix between history and exact orders for the near future, while the WEST arrow is more touch-and-go.
On this turn our Warrior will move north, so we can eventually get to the edge of that range of hills and see what's to our north.

Turn 10: 3550 BC
More scouting this turn. Our Warrior will head north this turn, then head west. This will allow him to see what's over the mountain range. At that point, he'll probably pivot south again, and start exploring the land to our west.
The next Warrior will start scouting south, heading 2 tiles directly south for on this turn. We'll decide where to move him during 3500 BC based upon what he sees after this turn.

Turn 11: 3500 BC
More scouting this turn. The Warrior we have in the north will start heading in a west-ish directon (NW this turn), to take a look at what might be beyond the mountains. He will continue west 1 more tile to see even more, then start heading dead-south. This will allow us to see all of the uncovered land. After going south for quite a while, we'll figure out what to do next from there.
The Capitol Warrior will continue to head south taking a path along the river, looking for the other side of the jungle. Once we get outside of the jungle, futher plans will be developed.

Turn 14: 3350 BC
Yay! We have an image for you today kiddies! Enjoy the visual pleasure. 
http://apolyton.net/upload/files/Trip/3350Scouting.jpg
The turn number at the bottom-left is how long it will take W2 to reach the point where the arrow ends down south.
Okay, basically what this means is that there's 2 possible courses of action for our goody-hut popping pleasure. Since the general consensus appears to want to pop all of the huts within the near future, these two plans (and their variations) are what I've come up with.
'Red Plan' is where we use our currently-scouting Warrior down south (coined 'Warrior 2' or 'W2') to pop all of the huts in the jungle. This will cut approximately 4 or 5 turns from our scouting towards the south, but it's the safest move. We've got 2 huts nearby, barbs would be bad, and the contents of those huts will help us a great deal (unless we pop 6 barbs... then I jump into the sea again). Note again that all 'Red Plan' suggests is that we use W2 to pop all of the huts in the jungle, and there's really no definitive tile-by-tile plan yet, and there won't be one until a decision is made regarding which plan to use.
'Blue Plan' has W2 continue south, popping one of the huts and continuing on his merry way, while W3 (now fortified in Apolyton) will go south 5 moves to pop the other hut. This will allow us to continue scouting, but we risk our only city being five turns away from defense, and the chance that barbs could end up between W3 and Apolyton, which is bad no matter how you look at it.
So, basically: 'Red Plan' will drain our scouting more, but is safer, while 'Blue Plan' keeps our scouting honest but makes things a bit riskier on defense.
I personally prefer 'Red Plan'... walking around 5 turns from defense is a bad way to go about things, even if we are on a tiny section of land next to a big jungle and a desert.

Turn 15: 3300 BC
- W1 will probably fortify (since it will likely be attacked by one of the barbarians).
If W1 is not injured or attacked, then it should attack one of the adjacent barbarians. If possible, W1 should destroy a barbarian located directly to the south of it if one is located there.
- W2 will move 3 (South-East) and pop the goody hut located there.
- W3 will remain fortified in Apolyton.

- W2 'bigfree1' will move 2 (South) if it survives this round of barbs. Our goal is to find the southern edge of this jungle with him... if it exists.
- W3 'Alva' will move 6 (East).
If a barb or enemy unit is spotted, it will move 8 (North) instead.

Turn 36: 2350 BC
MOW Summary:
Lots of barbs nearby, which are making things interesting. W2 BF will probably be stuck between CDG and GCA for quite some time, while W3 Alva will finish scouting the peninsula. W5 BFW will start scouting to the west, while W4 and W6 will defend Apolyton from the barbs threatening the city.
- W2 'BigFree' will move 9 (Northeast), where he will probably stay for a very long time.
- W3 'Alva' will move 8 (North), and begin heading for the northeast edge of the peninsula.
- W5 'BFW' will move 2 (South). From there, he will move directly 4 (West) in his scouting path until he finds something interesting.
- W6 'Hagbart':
- If the barb in the south moves onto a flat tile inside our borders (North), W6 'Hagbart' will attack it. If it moves onto the forest tile south of our Worker, Hagbart will move into the tile with the Worker, and wait for the barb to make its next move.
- If the barb in the south moves away from our capital (and disappears), then Harbart will move north if there's an enemy barb still 2 tiles away. If there's a barb adjacent to Apolyton (it moves south), then Hagbart will stay in Apolyton.

Some barbs still in the area. We will probably have to escort the settler with W6 'Hagbart' since that barb Warrior is still down south somewhere. Other than that, just make sure everyone is protected.
- W2 'BigFree' will become a permanent part of the landscape.
- W3 'Alva' will move 9 (Northeast) until it reaches the blackness again.
- W5 'BFW' will move 4 (West) until he finds something interesting.

Turn 39: 2230 BC
MOW Summary:
Theseus' victory was a great omen for our future military efforts, but there's still a lot of barbs to contend with around our city core. That's our main concern right now, though our scouting efforts will soon reveal new territory (how exciting!).
- W2 'BigFree' will move 4 (West).
- W3 'Alva' will move 9 (Northeast).
- W5 'BFW' will move 4 (West) this turn, then 2 (South) the next turn.
- W6 'Theseus' will move to Mingapulco if the barb Warrior moves adjacent to that city, and W7 'WhiteBandit' will move to Mingapulco as well. W5 'Hagbart' will then move from Bananatopia to Apolyton. This means that Apolyton would have Hagbart, and Mingapulco the other 2 Warriors.
If the barb remains on flat land NOT adjacent to Mingapulco (Southwest of Apolyton), then Theseus will destroy it and all other Warriors remain where they stand.
Otherwise, Theseus will fortify in Apolyton.
