Hm... Looks like it will be a fun battle (sounds like i will have to increase their garrison quite a bit, well, not complaining if i put 4/5 units there i will get 8/10 extra gold per turn).

Perfect. I've changed my mind, and would really rather not fight your army. The dark elves'll be weakened for when I decide to bribe you to leave them and attack.

Oh, and if you continue scouting my colonies, I really won't have a choice but to scout to yours next age.

Assuming your talking to me, I'm not scouting your colonies, I'm exploring south of the human village (eg. away from you), on my south coast (eg. away from you), and east of the halfling village, (technically in your direction, but very far away, and i have much closer area's if i want to scout to you).

EDIT:
Nirur, I revised how paying me off to not help the dark elves works.
Triple what the dark elves pay, -10 gold per magic gem, -2 gold per food, -5 gold per luxury good, -6 gold per iron/copper+tin, -8 gold per iron ingot/bronze ingot. (This way works better for me with large quantity of troops).
So, paying me off when I have 6 troops stationed would cost 36 gold, costing more then it's worth to actually loot their city.

Understood.

I don't actually care that much about looting them. I want them gone as an independent power. They attacked a Xeniician core colony, forfeiting the independence and many lives of their descendants.

Of course, the Nedici might not completely agree with me. Profit-mongering cowards.

[Ahra]

could i "sell" units as mercenaries?

No, but you can rent them. Or you can sell equipment.

I thought I made a improved farm on tile 3 this turn, but its not on the map?

Edit : Nor is the leather armor I made in my inventory.

[Ahra]

do the orcs use any metals?

Fixed.

Not that you've seen.

Sorry about that, I was confused and thought you were scouting east of the village near me. I then realized that you were out of supply range, and weren't likely to even want to send scouts out that far.


"I say, old chap, we've had a jolly good run of utterly loathing each other. Generations spent killing. Hope you're not still mad at us for for that time we took priceless magical gems in tribute and attacked anyway. Have a spot of ale; let by-gones be by-gones, I always say!"

[IronyOwl]

Aw, given up on your slaves?

[lemon10]

(You did not have a sun charm at the start of the turn, as far as I can tell.)

EDITEDIT: somehow i forgot to put that i made a sun charm in last turn's info (although i put it in the turn itself), could you please put it in my resource stockpile.

I don't think that is going to be possible, unless you get much stronger. While technically possible to wipe them out, especially if I let you, that depends on me letting you, or you having to fight some major wars over it.
On a related note, each consecutive turn that you pay me off not to defend the dark elves will cost more.

EDIT: Although i don't think it would be that hard to restrain the dark elves if i say that I won't help them defend anymore if they attack you.
EDITEDIT: Also, i gathered a iron last turn, something that i don't need iron working to do (i just need iron working to make iron ingots, not to gather it).

Actually, you do need iron working to gather iron.

And I'll get that sun charm in there.

The technology list begs to differ.

Iron Working
    Requires Bronze Working
    Allows iron ingots

Although i suppose you didn't mean it that way, so no gathering iron for me this age

[Nirur Torir]

How do garrisons in neighboring colonies/cities aiding each other work?

[Vanigo]

If it's not a surprise attack, they can generally get to the battle no problem. Of course, if that battle is a feint, you might be in trouble...

Spoiler: Primary Changes (click to show/hide)

  The ascension of Queen Magal is a turning point in the Ashara's history, and everyone knows it. Not since the earliest days of King Vael has one individual been responsible for both the city's domestic and military affairs, and despite being the daughter of both General Maul and Queen Rakul, her appointment as both Queen and General is unprecedented.

  The specifics of proper procedure are trivial, however, compared to the specifics of just who their new General-Queen is. Magal has inherited her father's aggression and hulking physique, but somehow shows even more savagery and less restraint. Some say she takes after her mother's instability, but she's widely feared whatever the cause, and all are quite certain she'll make full and unbridled use of her newfound power... if indeed she stops at that.

  Wasting no time with regards to sweeping changes, Magal's first order of business is to formalize the concept of clans. The Ashara had always grouped themselves in various ways, and specialized guilds had arisen a fair while ago, but the distinctions had become more pronounced in recent history. The new queen's order not only solidified this notion, it gave it all new importance- clans could and would be treated as official entities by the throne, up to and including being given work, territory, restrictions, privileges, or even rank and distinctions. Suddenly, the issue of what clans one belonged to, whether based on profession, territory, lineage, or anything else, could affect anything and everything.

  Moreover, Magal hoped to foster competition and rivalries within the city, intending to send a clear message that the time for laziness and relaxation was over. A new age was dawning, and the Ashara would be taking their rightful places in it. Not all agreed with the new queen's inevitable preference for war, but the common sentiment was certainly in favor of empire- Sunstone was still the center of the world, but it was Sunstone's world now.

Spoiler: Additional Leadership Changes (click to show/hide)

  Sirrus, son of Maul, has been assigned the position of "High Commander," in deference to Magal's leadership. He nonetheless handles military affairs whenever Magal is too busy or uninterested to deal with them. Needless to say, he's none too pleased with his father's ploy, and can't help but suspect it's some sort of passive-aggressive revenge for being subtle, calm, and not terribly imposing. He's named after a type of throwing weapon, essentially several darts connected by string, used to tangle or impair weaker foes (usually small game).

  Tel, son of Mia, has been declared Chief Architect. He's better known for his ravishing looks than his engineering ability, but that's not saying much, as he's arguably one of the most famous people in the city. He prefers more opulent buildings than he suspects he'll be working on in the near future, but admits there's a certain appeal to fortifications.

How's this?
