Umm, GWG I think he's talking about you, since I don't see an army symbol in any of Aseaheru's territories...
Left side looks either really fortified or like they have... too many military units. I see catapults.
*glances at thumbs*
Unless Tsuchigumo is looking at the screen upside-down, I doubt it.

Anyways.

A speardragon moved along the road, to defend Mineralhub, as another was trained in the art of speardrakeship. More land was claimed, as well. In short, an uneventful year or however long a turn is.

And Lo, the naval power of the Blackrock Kingdom sets forth on a voyage of discovery!

No. I suppose there are similarities, but I'm fairly certain angry birds doesn't let me charge into a battalion of knights with a car made of circular saws.

Yeah. GWG, you and I are the only ones with any military units AT ALL, so he was probably talking to you

He mentioned a catapult. I have...one spearperson, and one on the way.

Well Aseaheru has no army, and I only have a barge, so I have no clue what the heck he was talking about....

I meant the pretty little picture that clearly stated "HEY YOU. YES, UNSUSPECTING PLAYER. YOU ARE ABOUT TO BE DESTROYED.

Though, if you aren't about to destroy me/are going to do it anyway despite the fact that I don't have much to take, do carry on.

Not to be rude, but you seem to be going slightly insane.
And yeah, no one has any catapults or real armies.

Also, incase anyone didn't already know, the turns people submit are supposed to be secret (even though you can easily just look at them and load them up). It doesn't really matter yet, but once some conflict begins it will become rather important.

I didn't really look at their turns, I looked at the symbols on the map and saw a catapult (military unit symbol.) When i was doing my turn, I saw it. I figure since there's no absolute risk of imminent death I'm freaking out way too much though; but it was a shock.

I didn't think you were looking at anyone's turns, but just pointing it out before it could become a problem with anyone.

I looked at the symbols on the map and saw a catapult (military unit symbol.) When i was doing my turn, I saw it. I figure since there's no absolute risk of imminent death I'm freaking out way too much though; but it was a shock.

Assuming you are looking at the same map as me, there are only two armies (represented by shields in the upper left corner of their tiles). One of them is a spearman in it, the other is a barge. Both are at least 4 turns away from being able to attack you.
No one has any catapults.

*Looks at map again*
OHHHHHH, you are looking at those woodcutters. Yeah, those aren't military units at all, all military units are represented by a shield in the upper left corner.

....The heck? *checks map*



.....ok if you turn your head sideways, woodcutters might look like catapaults, but that's a real stretch to me. Still no clue what's going on

Oh, that's an axe. Maybe.

Well, full idiot achieved. No turning back now, I'm going to go down in flames.

Yeah, the woodcutters symbol is kind of weird looking, and I suppose that the axe (which I only just noticed now) might throw you off. Also going to throw out there that you haven't sent your turn in yet for this turn and since you are posting in this thread, probably thought that you already have or didn't notice that it was a new turn.
