Tiwanku shall be renamed Sparkgear, and become an haven of Dwarven science! I order a library built there.

Also, I vote we go for Mao Tse Toung. Better deal with him while we can.

Looking at the map, the Chinese seem like the best bet, as they're closest to us. Maybe we should see if we can get a bit of Info out of Stickland, see if they know where Hannibal's hiding?

Yep. Although it would be a good idea to keep some men so that the sticks cannot backstab us.

As if they don't have spies viewing this thread already :P

Lets just offer to share maps with em, eh? This stick people seem like decently warlike folk, if slightly inferior to ourselves in terms of speed and efficiency.

As far as income goes, hopefully the next war won't go quite so well for us, and we won't have as huge a military to upkeep - or we'll take enough cities we can station our invading force as defenders. Either or.

I think moving the capital and expanding is generally a good idea as well - we should be able to take mao with our current army.

Of course, there is one civ just as close who we know are likely weakened by a recent war... (I doubt they had a flawless victory like we did).

Perhaps these stickpeople would make noble enemies?

With uncovered territory we could have severe problems.


Start by exploring to the left.

I really don't want to go to war with one of the other forums right now, it's too early. Because then one of us'll have to leave for the rest of the game... I've said this before.

Hey, Sticks! Want to share maps with us?

I'm sure our spies have seen their old maps.

You cannot trade maps until Paper is researched.

Granted, I can't stop you from spying on their thread.

Speaking of espionage. We aren't really spying on anyone in particular now. Should I change that?

Which means we don't need to spy on them, since they won't be standing for much longer. Spy on whoever is closest after them ;)

Like, say, Hannibal? If we can even do that without knowing where he is.

Even if we can't exchange maps, we could at least ask the stick people for one of his cities.

Maybe we should espionage the stick people then?
