We know that France has one city and where, and we know where they soon will have another city. We don't know where the two American cities are, but we're pretty sure where New York is.

Why do we suspect the location of Orleans? We have no idea of what lies beyond the mountains!!

Uno mas Warrior, por favor.

I wasn;t involved until today.

Doesn't that potentially change Pink, dramatically?

If there's a settler in that immediate area, there will in all likelihood be a 1 pop city there by D-day... TARGET NUMERO UNO!!!

I would say 1) that argues for changing the build order to Archers first... no need for the protecting Spearman, and 2) Pink must be prioritized over Blue. If Orleans is 2 pop on arrival, and thus capturable, I would then change the build order to have a 2nd Spearman.

I still think one more Warrior would be good. In early warfare, I generally like to have a couple of extra Warriors out exploring and then returning to the scene of battle... control the high ground, gain situational awareness, and either distract / defend against some enemy units, or pick off the stray Worker. The current plan is a little light on the Warriors, methinks.

Last: In the Party wars, this is the "Skywalker ranting" I've seen references too? No surprise: consider me a Hawk.

Why should a 1 pop city be target #1, which most likely will be autorazed? Isn't it better to go for the capital, which we can capture for sure, and on the way back clean that city site?

It will neveer reach pop2... it will be weakly defended... let's shoot for a promotion, and then heal on a mountain if need be.

And, if it ends up where Uber suspects, it's an insult!!
