    Dammit, I botched that run up! :o

    I'll see if I can nuke 2 villages on my next run...

    Muffin, you take the one you listed and I'll take the other 9-cropper. That will leave the 15-cropper for someone else. I'd prefer someone like TBonz or someone that doesn't have a 15-cropper. Gemini is almost ready to dispatch settlers. Probably 6 hrs from now.

    Just dispatched 3 10-wave attacks to each of Jannis's villages.

    when are they gonna hit?
    there was a gross miscalculation on my behalf, as i though rams and catas went at the same speed, so my 2 catapult waves will hit in just under 11 hours at (-81,325)
    i also managed to gain wheat production back from the wasted space that was my rams :)

    It's a 6-hour trip, so about 7pm Eastern.

    around midnight my time... i think.
    daylight savings time may have changed things...

    i hate time zones, lol.

    and since my cropper may be levelled tomorrow... and i'm out... :(
    i'll need the sitter to send the settlers there lol.

    lol, I have never bought a single thing, I only sell. :D

    Think of it this way, I take the goods he ships me, and you guys take the goods I ship him. haha

    That's his capital anyway. It's very far from where these 3 villages are.
  • Invisible-MuffinInvisible-Muffin Scotland
    edited April 2008
    and very close to my current capital :)
    if i wanted to remove him from the game, i could just make enough catapults and probably wait for the current ones to come home lol

    I'm not in favor of wiping him away just because we can... we're gentlemen (and ladies). We simply want to smack him but then noticed he had vital property... evicting him was a business decision.
  • Invisible-MuffinInvisible-Muffin Scotland
    edited April 2008
    yeah.. plus i'm not really big enough to take out his capital, it would be a huge loss with no actual benefit in this situation.
    it was just a 'what if' type scenario

    For sure! haha. I was beginning to wonder if I woke up suddenly in Myth or Zero. ;D

    Heck, I might just send some resources to him after I settle in... unless he stops playing, then I'll farm him. :D

    well, thats the larger of the 9c's destroyed...
    i hope i can sign on for at least 5 minutes in the morning, so i can get those settlers sent off early enough...

    and now the smaller village (my one) is at 46 pop

    Settlers dispatched... 4:35 hrs away... I'll need to get troops in there quick and resources too. 11PM my time... gonna be a late night AGAIN. ;D

    his other village isn't dead yet... :(

    Now it is :p My troops only move so fast.

    Jannis has been removed, FYI.

    Where to next? -83|329 and then -77|326? Both are 15c owned by kay7. The first is next to Q.

    You want points... go remove -83|329. That 15-cropper will be nice too. I like the 3 iron oasis' all lined up with two 5 iron valleys right next to them.

    BTW... Q-Demeter (-82|326) already has 100 spear and 50 pals guarding it. I stayed up last night in order to build it up enough to support those guys. That should keep it safe from a quick assault.

    OK, I'll probably launch around 1:30 if I can.
  • LincLinc Owner Detroit Icrontian

    Wait... Q, can you make a Senator? It will literally save you a week (or two) of building if we can take it intact.

    Beachhead has a Senator, and I can make that a priority in Flint.

    I have an open slot but at the powerbase. I need to finish my acadamy and then research the senator. It will be a few days. Can it wait that long. I think it can...

    Ares can do it quicker... Only need to get residence to lvl20 and then train the senator. Ares will also have an offensive army starting in a day. Defensive troops are good for now.

    I'll leave it up to the alliance....

    I COULD be really sneaky and send a Chief to take the 9-cropper from Muffin before he can defend it.

    Or maybe, he will give it up if we ask him too. If not, we'll have to take it by force but I'm thinking it won't have to come to that.

    Waste of a chief. Use it for a developed village.

    I don't think everyone is considering what a MASSIVE advantage it is to capture a 300-pop village over settlers and/or catapulting one down. It's tens of thousands of resources and weeks of time difference. Capturing is vastly superior to settling. I'm in a position to let anyone capture anything near the outpost with a single Senator, so let's capitalize on that to a maximum.

    Once you have a Chief, let me know. I'll be ready. In the meantime, I will allow him to continue building it up for you ;)

    not meaning to pull up a fight or anything... but threatening me before i actually leave?
    when i never said i would?

    let me highlight this point once more, hopefully word spreads and i can have this unneccessary irritant removed once and for all:

    INVISBLE MUFFIN IS NOT LEAVING THE ICRONTIC ALLIANCE!

    had to get that out.
