We're ALL too busy trying to conquer neutral states with far more advanced tech and people than any of us has.

Drive the Empire over us please. :P

WELL

The Alliance of Revakn is notably obvious that it likes its neighbor, (Criptfiend's people), and its scheming other neighbor, (Iiteum's people)

Also can we have the OOC OP updated with all the players? :P

So. Sorta as like, a psa or something. If anyones worried about secret communication, I'd suggest pms over spoilers. In my experience the honor system isn't really a thing when tempers are high... Or honestly even in general, I've seen far too many people cheat in games on bay12 when they can get away with it to not expect people to 'cheat' when it seems like more of a suggestion then a rule and it's as easy as clicking the spoiler button. So, that's why I'm not being so secretive in my responses to you Nirur Torir, because I don't care if anyone sees and even if I did care I don't think a spoiler is the way to go. I've been using a spoiler to represent the physical package of a letter in an envelope for roleplaying, not for any type of security.

Anyway, now that this is in the open. Maybe some sort of dialog can take place and people can air out their plans and stuff and we can all be happy neighbors. Remember. What's more important then fucking over our neighbors? It's working together to fuck over those god damn hoity toity fancy pants schmucks in the empire!

None of the territories I tried to conquer have units I lack the technologies for making (I ran into a Light Maceman this turn, but I could totally build them if I had access to iron or copper). What did you run into if you don't mind my asking?

EDIT: actually does anyone have long-term (i.e. more than 15 turns) plans? Obviously I'm not asking for you to reveal them but I'm just curious if anyone else has one.

She fought yo'solath. The god of of the moon and suicidal dreams. His horrible tentacle grip still holds parts of owldale. Managed to take out 3 spearmen before going down! So op.

It'll probably take me more then 15 turns (at least from turn 0, maybe not from turn 3) to take over the land I want. Steel is green, so that's going to be a tough nut to crack.

Otherwise in general, I want to eventually build up an alliance with the others and eventually attack the empire, once I feel I've developed enough and we've scouted out what they have.

I'm non-cheating in anything I play because I just can. :P
That said, I plan to be fully peaceful (unless attacked ;~;) this whole game.

Also yes to this :I
This is my first game with all these, so surprise and my eagerness are killing my troops.

For the second time in a month the Republic was host to visitors from far away. These messengers from a country calling itself the Storm Empire were far less noteworthy to the population of the Republic however, given as they were of proper middle caste races, and Bartiro was left to hastily formulate a reply.

The Principality of Pork has slightly screwed itself over with its Non-Aggression Pacts and border lines, because they were drawn before I looked at the wealth map.  In order to expand, I either have to wait for my neighbour to take over a territory so I can move into it elsewhere or take on one of two full green provinces.  >_<

Yes. We've had a good little laugh about that. At least you changed your actions after seeing the wealth map and didn't run your whole starting army face first into a green like some people did.

If I was you I would consider some realpolitik solutions. Possession is 9/10ths of the law after all.... Tough choice either way.

Or say fuck it to the local area and go overseas. Nothing a boat or two can't handle.

Is 1 transport enough to reduce the island hopping penalty for a whole army? Although to be honest it doesn't really matter. Probably could have island hopped to E Troud which probably would have had minimal resistance and then taken over the rest of Troud from there without the penalty.

A transport will reduce the penalty for as many units as it's carry capacity.
