    If it works you should rename tripwire to "GodSend is a fail" :bigggrin:

    I love that idea!!! My villages out there are more than happy to hold some of the troops if you need space.

    I'd rather you had all your def troops home in case I bite off more than I can chew. I will have Beachhead and Wild Bill maxed with Praetorian as well so they can additionally reinforce in a pinch.

    Q, any chance you could relocate your offensive troops this weekend sometime? They're cramping my wheat production and I'm gonna need some NPC trades.

    Tripwire just took a 25% wheat oasis so its production jumped big time. I sent in as many scouts as it can handle (2,700 total) - I think it will be able to decimate a 3,000 scout force a la Godsend if he wants to peek ;) I'll send in more before the big event to be sure.

    When do you think I can stand down at Aries? Everyone is doing great at helping out on the wheat but -18,000 is really killing Aries.

    My plan is to put 5000 scouts in Aries to make scouting him very difficult. I'm still gonna keep a good number of troops just not the 24,000 troops.

    So... Maybe Monday morning I send home half of the troops?

    I would go ahead and draw down. He can't capture it so he probably isn't that interested in that village, more in what it can send to reinforce.

    sweet... I will be sending at least 1/2 of what's there. I'd like to keep some scouts until I can get my numbers up. That OK?

    How many lvl 20 praes, legionnaires, and scouts do you suggest I keep in my powerbase village to protect it from Godsend? Right now I have 2500, 400, and 150. I'm assuming that isn't even halfway enough :-/

    AT, I would accept that you can only do "good enough". The most important defensive measure you can take is a second granary ;)

    Tripwire is building granary 4 right now. I think it can do about a granary a day.

    Yeah.... Chronos found that out yesterday. 80k is NOT enough. 160k is really not enough to last over 8 hrs with a huge troop reinforcements.
