The silence is deafening. But I think that is largely in response to our silence. Also remember it is weekend and maybe somepeople are away. To be honest they would expect us to say something and think us too undisciplined not to. It surprises and confuses them. Anybody have contact with anybody on rp/gs and have seen any reaction.
Now to the second idea that this attack is a trigger for an attack in the north. If it is, let them come. We have 12 riders in the north in this upcoming turn +4 horse. Additionally we can get sp from lego and produce muskets next turn. Any attack meets many musket. Also this would give lego an excuse for immediate and open war. Also lego forces will be stationed near macao for just such an eventuality.
Next, how do we explain GP. very simply we lie. We could have produced GP in 6/7 turns on our on. We have had invention that long. This reason also could cause GS to underestimate our forces. we couldn't have been upgrading the last turns if we had been researching. Will they suspect lego, yes!!!!, but can not know for sure. Also all they can see are ansars+3riders. So it is possible a large ansar force defeated their forces. My advice(and all must decided for themselves) is to wait to see our turn to make comment. However, a mention of unortho's charge and the "exteme luck of the ansar" might help some. Just to draw them out. mention nothing of our loses, say we sent 3 riders under the cover of night, even as spyiong rp Pikes took postion over the Alamo and RP was none the wiser. Maybe Gs would right it off as being unlucky. of course it is also possible that GS will see gp as only coming from lego, and thus say "sc@##w this "s@#t and attack, thinking they have nothing to lose and must win quick, which to be honest is true. Time strengthens us, not them. If they had moved this force5 turns ago without waiting for the road, they would have been safetly behind city waalls before our forces attack. To paraphrase napoleon, you can not get back time. GS proabbaly has already waitied to long. If this was a chess game I would at this point go into excahnge mode, meaning that my goal is no longer to get the advantage but to push the game to the end game with my current advantage(obviously of the opportunity presented itself I'd increase the advantage, but not with a risk). This does imply strategy in this situation since there are no GA's in chess and usually you can not get peaces in chess. But the point is that right now we have the advantage and maybe should push to kkep it as we go toward our goals, ie Barcelona. My suggestion, and it is only a suggestion, is that when we have 20 healthy units in "the alamo" we launch an attack with the healthy ansars toward barcelona. Hold to the hills in the 1st turn and second turn take a hill and fortify all on that hill. with 20 untis we could withstand ANYTHING he can throw at us and the following turn take Barcelona.
