How does our proposed focus tie in with your new fortress rules?

+1 to the question. It changes things

War must be, while we defend our lives against a destroyer who would devour all; but I do not love the bright sword for its sharpness, nor the arrow for its swiftness, nor the warrior for his glory. I love only that which they defend.

Well the obvious answer would be that it puts a resource point right on the enemy's favourite landing site.

The rule mention forts being a focus+production action. Our plan call for using the production on the pistol.

As that rule is currently being developed still, I'm happy to wait for a conclusion before we proceed.

I'd hoped to get it done before I came back to school, but since I got sick I didn't manage to make the advertisement. I'm unlikely to have time to do anything with it myself now.

Yeah, that is a bit of a problem, but we can already easily repel the loyalist ground forces and the addition of the fort will make it even more difficult for them to gain a foothold. It gives the Monarchy a reason to attack at that region too, but that's actually better for us, because it gives them more exposure to the loyalists and gives us more breathing room to advance on the eastern side of the island.

Now that the rule is finalised,  are you all okay with this plan?

1) Produce more air pistols for one more turn of cavalry superiority
2) Espionage - Steal loyalists's revision (not a credit)
3) Focus one: Build a fort and protected port at the peninsula that was attacked the last time.
4) Focus two: Attack fort Alton from three directions to cut off that bulge near Bradford
5) Offer our brig to USA.

So, I've got a few that agree. I'll go with that tonight unless I get something different.

The above is locked and being prepared.

Hrmmm, future planning is a touch hampered by not knowing the espionage results, but at 50% it is likely a null...

We need something that is quickly effective to give us a safe turn to work on our economy...

Greetings Engineers.

The Yorktown is a success, but the Loyalsits will no doubt try to catch it somehow. Meanwhile, we must throw them back into the sea from whence they came, and deal with the incursion towards Fort Combe.

Our spies were unable to recover any documents.
