I think a better strategy, then, would be to found a village next to that 15-cropper and build it up.
My plan exactly. I'm going to get a 3/4/5/6 just a few squares away. Need culture points though. I'll have enough for the next village soon with FATE and The Crossroads holding tea parties but after that I think it'll be a while. That's ok though, it'll give me a chance to build up before I take the 15-cropper.
I've sent settlers to (-63 | 292), a lovely detatched 4 | 4 | 4 | 6. ETA: sometime near the end of the server (30hours!). Is there anyone nearby I could send some resources to today, which could be forwarded on to me tomorrow? Just enough to get my warehouse/granary up to a decent size so I can start supplying it from my capital in moderately useful ammounts! I assume it's a nice enough neighbourhood? I don't really need to worry about sending troops or yet?!

I think you have to be careful how much resource you can send to someone else that is larger than you. Muffin is the font of all knowledge on that even though they will be passing back to you.
You are going to be a neighbour, can send you stuff to get your warehouses started while you are sending up your merchants. Think I can send an hours production. Let me know when you arrive
Yeah, I switched the 9 cropper village beside TF1 to TF2. Maybe I should just retire TF2 for good. Kind of like the high rises skipping out on the 13th floor.
I now have Shipwreck II, Snake-Eyes II, and Scarlett II. Later today will be Roadblock II
I just realized I hadn't clicked on one of my villages yet today :o Its resources were maxed. I thought I'd covered them all - I'm starting to get confused :o

I just know that's gonna happen when I establish "Bloodrush". The top village on my list isn't gonna be my capital anymore.
Claiming -103|286 as Cantrellia Omicron. Settlers will be there in a loooooooong time. 18h 30m. This is close to, but not exactly between my other villages Cantrellia Minor -97|289 and Cantrellia Epsilon -111|290. This is only a 6-cropper, with 3 woodcutters, 4 clay pits and 5 iron mines. It also has some nice oases, including a big iron oasis and a big wheat oasis.
// Edit: If anyone needs wheat at the outpost, let me know. Cantrellia Minor produces far more wheat than it is able to use. Anyone wanting to send wood/iron/clay to Cantrellia Epsilon is welcome to do so. Cantrellia Minor wouldn't mind deposits, either.
Now that I have my iron oasis, Cozyton is producing excess iron. As soon as I get my marketplace there leveled up I should be able to supply people in the outpost with it pretty well.

I can send an hours worth to you which can more than get you started. you can save yours for your merchants.

Q, let me know when you want me to launch against kay7. I will have a third senator at Flint by lunch.
You clear the way and Aries will follow and Athena will be there to conquer it!!! -83|329, right?
Aries is 15:12 hrs away... Hera can flex her muscles too but no chief.
Yes.
//edit: My main concern is that my senators NOT take it, so I will launch my 3 once and then it will be up to you
It's entirely possible kay7 is inactive. That village has not grown. That means it would be easy to take.
