	OFFICIAL: Target for the 16th Chat! Browse Apolyton AD-FREE

By mention the 16th, i dont mean we will attack in this chat. I just need to know where to attack. So that in this chat we can prepare something like a attack force to launch an attack in the chats to come.
We only have 4 options as far as i see:

1) Austrian city of Wien
2) Austrian city of Pilsen
3) Another civilization (Please specify which one)
4) Dont attack!

It is pretty clear. Where should we place a target on?

Wien is the most valuable target so go to Wien.

generally i say wien, but i haven't looked at the current savegame yet carefully, only if we have enough forces to secure all our cities

Therefore Pedrunn mentioned in his post that if we are going to attack Wien, we won't do it this turn necessarily.

Abstain. We should now attack the size-1 cities in the north, Troppau and the other one (forgot the name). As I've noted before, that will greatly reduce their power base and resource collection, at little to no cost for us. Then prepare for a strike on Wien. But it will be a hard battle, so take plenty of time for that (we'll need at least 24-30 units and a suicide attack a few turns in advance).

I agree with Locutus. I have already expressed my opinion in a previous Turn Chat. While we are building the armies that will deliver the final blow we should attack as soon as possible the little Austrian cities bordering our empire before staging a full scale attack on Wien. We are engaged in a war of attrition and we must reduce the Austrian military potential by destroying or occupying its peripheral centers of production before attacking Wien.

Moreover, before Wien, Pilsen should be our first target.

I hereby abstain.

I vote abstain for the reasons Locutus and Tamerlin put forward, seems like good sense IMHO?
