W8 moves W
MerZenary moves NW

Trip bashed off orders pretty quickly in chat. After thinking about it some, maybe it would be an idea to move W8 back to Apolyton and move Mao out to hunt the barb down. It is the mercs we want to see promoted, yes?
btw, I am inclined to wait and leave it for vondrack to play the turn. This gives the folks at the Foreign Office time to round up the likely suspects at CDG and maybe CFC to see if a three way tech deal is possible.
If no news from them before vondrack's am, then we 0 the slider and wait for writing so we can go MM soon. Yes?
/Edited, because I'm too tired and forgot we can't start MM this turn because we don't have writing yet. Duhh.

I agree - our odds would be less than 75%, which (considering our wonderful  luck in this game) is too low. There is no need to risk at this point. Let's wait for the barbarian warrior to cross the river - we will then be at almost 85%, which should - hopefully! - be enough to slain him.
As for the Writing situation... it was actually not us who got screwed... it was GCA - as THEY will not receive the techs on the next turn (unless we send our techs as "accepted" now, that is). We would not get Writing this turn either way... that said, it may be an idea to counter their Writing offer with Warrior Code, sending The Wheel separate as "accepted" - that way, if they accept on their end, things will happen as they were expected to. I would personally be inclined to do things this way. Shows we are determined to fulfil our part of treaties, even if it means throwing in a little more extra trust.
OTOH, offer both techs without accepting to CDG, of course...

OK, report posted.
Few things were done differently from what was posted in the first post of this thread:
W7 'WhiteBandit' was fortified on the hill rather then sent to attack uphill, across a river. Odds will be better if we wait for a better position to engage that barb there.
W8 'not-panag' moved back to Apolyton (to keep the pop happy there), while N2 'Mao' moved SW-W (1-4) to get closer to the barb we spotted N of the horse tile. Mercs can walk around barbs freely, engaging (almost) at will, while warriors have to be very careful, as they may easily get "unlucky", as demonstrated more than once in this game (everybody, spend a minute and remember W1 'BetaHound', please  ). Theseus' lucky survival last turn was yet another reminder to risk our warriors as little as possible.
And finally, due to the odd quirk in the game, we had no chance to properly counter GCA's Writing offer with our techs (as technically spoken, we discovered Wheel only after having to handle their offer). After much debating in the chatroom, it was decided to sort of "ignore" their offer ingame and send our own, "unaccepted" offer of WC+Wheel. Ambassador WhiteBandit was instructed (by a PM from BigFree) to send a message to GCA and explain what happened and why we were not able to counter their offer as planned.

and  just read you post in the lexicography thread- a worker would be just fine- and since they are more common than warriors- that will work out... now to work on Warrior8's name... I'll see if anyone has any requests and if not, try to make something up |
hi ,
if you have read all the post's thou shall understand , ... the reason i am upset with it is when i got a couple mails , ..... and all the other things that flew my way , ....
make me a NM or a worker , ...

"warrior not panag"
