Well it has become apparent that WVUfan has simply not returned from his hunt...the people are restless. CoffeeWarlord, at the behest and blessing of the people shall storm the office and take control of Glasgow. WVUfan will drop to last in line for a city however he still retains the title of "Governor" thus allowing him to vote, discuss, debate, and participate, eventually to be granted a city. Coffee, we will begin a Ranch at your request.

Now that my guards have cleaned out my new office, they can have a night on the town...and then stand over the citizens with clubs at the ready, while they build our new Ranch.

Sir we have heard stories of a great leader in a empire far away from here.
Jeanne d'Arc Joan of Arc, also known as Jeanne d'Arc,[1] (c.1920bc)[2] is a national heroine. She asserted that she had visions from God which told her to recover her homeland from domination late in the Hundred Years' War. The uncrowned leader sent her to the siege at her hometown as part of a relief mission. She gained prominence when she overcame the light regard of veteran commanders and lifted the siege in only nine days. She renewed national confidence in her own brief career. She refused to leave the field when she was wounded during an attempt to recapture her city in the autumn. Her birthplace: a rendering:

Mrsimperless, your workers are continuing their work on the "gold" mines out east and one has been completed bringing gold, via the River Scot to Edinburgh. They will continue their work on the second mine, hoping to turn our numbers positive. After that they will begin to turn the flood plains of the River Scot to farmland, unless you command otherwise.
The frontpage picture of Edinburgh has been updated. The frontpage picture of Glasgow has been updated. CW, you should know that our people have ran across a gang of mean looking barbarians to the NW and while Glasgow sits at a strategic advantage to the south of the River Scot, the people are very nervous. Some of the woman and children are making plans to leave for Edinburgh so I think that this is certainly something you should be concerned about.

Alright. Send word to Edinburgh, the third legion (whoever has the most experience) shall march immediately to Glasgow.
Upon reaching Glasgow, if the enemy is still in site, he is to proceed onward to engage and destroy the enemy. |

Wow, for some reason I was positive we had already researched metal carving. Oh well.
What are the benefits of the great wall vs. the sphinx? And what are your thoughts on our chances of success with each of these projects keeping in mind how long they have been available for us to build and the relative quickness that we can construct them with here in Edinburgh. (Unless of course one of them is a minor wonder)

I stand corrected, we do know how, per se, to make the sharp points we need but unfortunately, as of now, we have no access to copper or iron which is required.
The Great Wall keeps all Barbarian scum from entering our borders on the Continent, while the sphinx is -100% Anarchy length and -50% maintenance. I have no idea what our chances are for completing these although I know that we dont have access to stone which would help immensely. We may have a better shot than if we tried for Roman Roads (which increases gold production and provides roads for all squares up until now, also providing 2 fast-workers) but Im not sure of that either.

ntndeacon has stood out from the citizens as someone who should definitely look to a leadership role in the future. We will certainly find him a city however in the meantime, ntndeacon now receives one vote on issues regarding the empire. Welcome.

What shall we research next (see the front page Science thread for availability)? I purposely left off what units we can train after researching something as I thought that wouldnt be revealed in real life until it was discovered but what do you all think?

Warrior 3 went north and destroyed the Barbarian horde earning a promotion. What should they specialize in? We will return them to Glasgow.

Our treasury is below 20 Gold coins and we are losing one every turn, what shall we do? When the treasury empties, the budget dept. will automatically take some of the money from the science budget to place towards maintenance so that we don't run a deficit.

Mrsimperless:
Unfortunately a messenger arrived to let us know that he heard of a unknown people's completion of the wonder of Roman Roads. What shall Edinburgh begin construction of: also The Great Wall 36 The Sphinx 39 Ranch 17 GI - With the extra materials left over from our failure to complete the Roman Roads our treasury is now bursting at the seams from the sale. All the materials garnered over 200 gold. If there is a silver lining, than that is it. CW - There are barbarians to Edinburgh's North-East, they are close to the gold mines.

Wow, that DOES suck. Having wasted even further time on the last project we may already be behind on the great wall as well so I hesitate to direct us to that end.
Lets play it "safe" for now and build a ranch.

I need your response today as to the barbarian. Should I not hear from you today I will be forced to re-assign the warriors in Edinburgh to City Guard status and hand over control of the to Mrsimperless, so he can adequately protect Edinburgh. Please advise shortly.

If our Edinburgh soldier can get there in time to intercept, send him and reroute our spare soldier to Edinburgh.
And we need another warrior. 2/city is gonna be necessary for barbarian defense for awhile. edit: And sorry for the long delay, I'm usually occupied on weekends, fyi. If it happens again and you want to move, use your best judgement. Last edited by Coffee Warlord : 11-19-2006 at 12:28 PM. |

I think coffe made the right choice here. we definitely need to defend that mine. Do we have any production towards our ranch yet or could we go ahead and produce another warrior first without losing any shields?

Governor, production on the Ranch has not commenced yet...do you want to change directions? I await your decision.
Coffee, we DO have 2 warriors / city right now however one from Glasgow is a day's travel towards Edinburgh. Do you want them to return to Glasgow, I will return the warrior to Glasgow. Edinburgh has TWO warriors there, although one is preparing to head out towards the mines to engage the Warrior, leaving one home in Edinburgh. Sorry for the confusion, I will try to do a better job in the future of clarifying things.

Yes, let's produce another warrior first and then commence production of our ranch.
What is the overall feeling on when we should start our third settler?

Our Warrior1 survived the battle of the Eastern mines and earned a promotion, it is a first promotion sir, which shall it be? Do you have any specific directions for the green Warrior we just graduated from Edinburgh? Mrsimperless: Edinburgh has graduated another Warrior making it's 3rd. One of Edinburgh's warriors, based on CW's direction, took to hiding in the mines just East of Edinburgh. they waited for the Barbarian horde to come through, which they did and our Warrior(s) were able to destroy them protecting the mines suffering about 50% damage, which should heal nicely with the promotion. Now that Edinburgh has completed another Warrior, what Shall Edinburgh work on next? The Great Wall 29 The Sphinx 32 Ranch 14

Alright. This might not be popular, but we're building the Great Wall in Glasgow.
I want our worker to start hacking down nearby forests once work has begun. Trees must die for our wall. |
