Building a barracks now. Crumpler is in the space between me and yellow. So we should be able to squeeze him.

Due to overwhelming lack of response about other leaders...
I added Vince in the position of "Elder" since he was the one who started this thread and has the current largest village. Gave him all the same powers as me. Figure we can also have a position to head the military and commerce wings added if anyone wants to nominate someone for those two positions. |

Woops, didn't see your post earlier that you joined. Sent you an invitation as well. Currently only 1 spot left in the alliance with 5 pending invites, so first one to get it gets in. I'll upgrade more again tommorrow once I get enough lumber to get another 3 people in |

This upgrade costs:
620 wood, 445 clay, 515 iron, 275 crops. Since I am completely out of crops, and almost out of wood, it will take me almost 18 hours to save up enough resources for the next upgrade. So likely will be tommorrow morning EST again (assuming I dont get attacked as my cranny can't store that much yet). |

I will start working on troops, but I'm not sure how far away you are. I will have to farm a little near me to get resources.. IW ant to wait until I'm up to 4 troops, I think, though.

I want crumpler so bad... I dunno how he got so much form me, my cranny is at lvl 7 or 8. He needs a beatdown in the worst way.
Also getting attacks from starbar or whatever his name is. Time to focus on military.

My suggestion would be at least to start focus on people not in an alliance for retaliation.. I'm not sure we're built up militarywise to handle an alliance vs alliance war just yet. Have to depend on crannies for that for now..
Just one of those things, take notes and come back for revenge once we're ready type things. Last I saw, Crumpler wasn't in an alliance, so should be someone we could gang up in the short term. |

He sent 29 at me last time.
I would like to see us double that number and hit him. I've warned him that my alliance isn't happy about the attacks, we'll see what he says.

Sure, we have gauls, romans and Teutons in our alliance. You will need an embassy level 1 in order to join. We have a good number of people still looking to join, as we can only add about 3 per day on average right now.. What is your game name, so we can send you an invite as well tommorrow once the embassy is upgraded again. |

that time got me intrigued and I found this very useful travel time calculator: http://www.javaschubla.de/2006/travi...i.html?lang=en Apparently, to get to Yellow5, it would take my swordsmen 33 hours Closest to me is sabotai at only 1:48 and Alan T at 3:15. Looks like Yellow5 is in the best quadrant to be attacked though, look at where people are:
Edit: took the wrong line, to get to yellow5, it would take my men 16.5 hours or about, still a loooong way... FM

I also just realized that the Gaul Merchants are pretty damned fast, would only take them 4:09 to get to yellow5 at a pace of 24 fields per hour

We are full up again now. Thanks to Lordscarlet sending a second bunch of supplied, it shortened the amount of time left to build the embassy to level 6 and invite in 3 more. Still need about 380 lumber though, at 40 lumber per hour, thats about 10 hours + 90 min to build. So likely first thing in the morning we'll be up to level 6. |

I have 2 guys that are attacking me every 3-4 hours.
At this point I can't get anything built anymore.

Built 1 Legionnaire just to be silly. He will die in the next attack, but he'll die a brave man.. or a fool. Actually I think I am going to use him to attack a couple of the inactives around me to see what happens.

Alan, you need anything other than wood? I'm about to send you all I have which is not much, some 87 or so, and could supplement it with something else you could use, let me know. I'm about an hour of merchant's walk from you btw...

I already have enough clay, and will have enough iron in about 2 hours. Lumber I need 9.2 hours or 368 pieces of lumber. Crops I need about 4.5 hours or 80 crops. So mainly its the lumber that is the limiting factor for me right now. Even though I'm making 40 per hour, I just use tons of it to upgrade. |

I am trying to use the scorched earth approach.
Neither has gotten anything for there last couple of attacks. I am hoping they go away soon and I can start saving up to build again.

okay, I'll let my woodcutters cut some more wood, up until I get home in about an hour and will send you what I have then, or a little after that. Up to 90 right now, cutting 45 per hour if I wait a bit, say even a couple more hours, that would give you 180 or about half of what you need to upgrade... Anybody else in a non threatening environment can help Alan a bit? FM

Alan, my lone merchant has left my village with 205 pieces of lumber, should arrive at your place in 57 minutes. That's if they don't stop by a stripper club on their way.

Looks like one of my antagonists has quit (or pissed off the wrong guild) His village is gone and he is no longer listed as a player.

Got the supplies FM, thanks again. Only need 18 more lumber and 18 more crops. So should be all set in an hour. Will take like 80-90 min to build the embassy as well, so I expect by 10-11pm EST it should be upgraded for 3 more people to join.

I hadn't thought of that, but the village being conquered of beaten down by another kind of raised a question in my mind. Sure enough, I just found what made me doubt this, again from the FAQ: Quote:
so what Brillig said seems like a plausible answer to what happened to him... FM
