Minister of war report 950 BC Remove this text

we are At war with both AI that we have contact with

We are not in a possition to attack both due to distance to cover, lack of knowledge , lack of veteran troops.


I suggest we attack the Japanese, see war plan thread
http://apolyton.net/forums/showthre...&threadid=88557
while leaving the greeks until we are better prepared and we at least know where their cities are.

The president has asked about upgading warriors, I would like this but I think it would be best done by using troops gained from huts, legion or archers rather than building new units, I know this will be a long slow process but I think we will be better off in the long run.

We have only discovered about 1/4 of the map so far (yes it is that huge) so I really think we must continue exploring and popping as many huts as we can , trying to find the other AI's.

I note we have begun building barracks in 2 of our cities, I support this and would support the rushbuying of them to help the war effort.

Our current army consists of : 3 x Settlers, 7 X Warriors, 3 x Phalanx, 4 x Archers, 4 x Legion, 4 x Horseman and 3 x Chariot.

I'm opposed to popping huts, because that will further slow our research if we find any unwanted techs. Ideally, we would find Monarchy or Polytheism... but if we don't, we'll be waiting even longer for those techs.

If we upgrade warriors, we should do so at our most exposed city sites, with Horsemen. For now, they'll provide a better 'offensive' defense, and martial law. For later, they'll upgrade well when we get Leo's.

Support Apolyton, buy Civilization III: Complete

The only thing less useful than a Warrior is no unit at all. They are almost not worth feeding. I think we should cash them in on better units until we achieve Monarchy If we must pay for each units, it makes more sense to have them be Chariots and Legions.

Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

I disagree, keep them for martial law and use the advanced units to crush our enemy's with.

Attack them asap although I would suggest establishing an embassy with them first.

Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

Seeing as we need the units for martial law, keep the warriors, disbanding them to rush a horse should any of our cities be threatened.

Advanced units should be massed to smash our enemies before they grow significantly.

I'd recommend holding off on the barracks and building temples so that we can reduce martial law under a Monarchy, but that's just me.

Since units include settlers, build the settlers from cities not already supporting a settler.

All combat units should be built in cities with barracks.

1. Get upgrade units from huts. (where possible to build new in our cities.) Don't disband warriors, make them our city guard and set the rest agains our enemies.
2. Mis vote, I checked stop popping huts but intended the "pop huts near AI civs" for NONE units.
3. rush te barraks and build settlers or temples IMO
4. War with japan , if our minister of War is up to the challenge.
5. Wait untill we have more knowledge of the greeks.
6. Build units in whatever city can support them.

Build barracks in cities that can support them and some units. Rush existing barracks. War w/J now, war w/G later. And pop the stinkin' huts!
