Next Chat Saturday 1500 - POST ORDERS HERE

Arnelos · January 2, 2003, 17:41

Next Chat should be Saturday (January 4th) at 1500 GMT (10 a.m. EST).

Ministers and other appropriate individuals, please post your orders here.

I would like to get orders for the next FIVE turns so that we can do a follow up chat on a later date. It is CERTAIN that we will not do all 5 turns in one chat, given the length of war turns (they are AGGRAVATINGLY long...).

Thank You.

Place Holder
These orders are final untill

Do not renegotiate between turns. Renegotiate during our turn. ONLY. Unless it is a renegotiated peace.

Renegotiate peace with the Zulu this next turn. Get what we can for it. We do want peace with them for now.

We still have to wait until at least 1315 AD befor we should be willing to trade Scientific Method.

We have 7 more turns until our Mutual Protection Pacts with Greece, Japan, Russia, England and the Iroquois are negotiable.

We Have 13 more turns until our Alliances against the Germans with the Indians, Persians and the Aztecs are negotiable

We Have 12 more turns untill our Embargos (With Japan, Greece, India, Iroquois, Russia, Aztecs, England and the Persians) against the Germans runs out.

Let the 28 LPT deal for coal ride with Japan. They have their own source and will not renew.

1305 AD
Fight War

Currently Greece still wants too much for Refining. Wait until 1315 AD to renegotiate the 5gpt for 3 lux deal.

We can get 6 lpt from England for rubber, WAIT until next turn when I suspect we can get close to 20 LPT

1310 AD
Fight War
14 GPT becomes available from England. Try to get 20 LPT for rubber

1315 AD
Fight War
Our deal with Greece for Ivory will expire. As this turn we will be finishing ToE, we can safely trade SM for Refining. Try to get Ivory packaged in the deal

1320 AD
Fight War

1325 AD
Fight War
2 LPT becomes available fron the Iroquois, they have 1 LPT currently (1305 AD). Now they might be able to afford some lux or resources

Greece, Japan, England and Iroquois are Gracious towards us
India, Russia, Aztecs are Polite towards us
Zulu are annoyed with us
Persia is furious with us

As we are at war with Germany and Rome, do not make peace with them for at least 7 turns due to our MPPs.

All our enemies are willing to talk peace and Germany is willing to give us bremen for peace. That should wait of course.

I do not know how much of teh chat I will be available for, but I will tru to pop in and out as much as possible.

I have much work to do for the beginning of next week, and I won't be able to attend the turnchat. I'll let Arnelos nominate a deputy for me during the turnchat, based on who's present.

PW orders
Please note PW still hasn't been done in 1305, so all estimations such include 1305. For example, "done in 3 turns" means "done in 1315". These estimations are based on the number of workers already located on these tiles, which lack roads.
Improvements within the radius of cities are prioritary. Workers who are already located on a tile without road must build a road ASAP.
Please note all tiles of our territory are concerned by these orders. Once all of this has been done, we'll completely run out of tiles to improve in our current territory.

Quick explanations of the orders below
Our current workforce is 86 nationals (81 once my direct orders are applied) and 67 slaves, a total of 251 WU.
WU means Worker Units, it is the amount of work a slave can provide in one turn.
When WU is written like "x+y WU", it means, how many WU are necessary to build a road, and the WU for other works, once the tile is connected to the network. For example, "2+8 WU" means it is only necessary to bring 2 slaves first, the 8 other slaves can do something useful elsewhere until these 2 build a road

Why is there a Jap Frigate and Galleon combo in Banana Bay (two tiles off the coast of Tassagrad)? I'll tell you why! The Japs are going to betray us! Otto or Creaser must have forked over every tech and Lyton they had to get him, but he is comming. The Shogun has cought us with our pants down. We will need massive re-inforcements to the Central Apolyton underbelly or we will get hit unprotected.
My first request is for 4 fully healthy Infantry units from the SMC (one for each of Central Apolytons undefended coastal cities: Port Rouge, Chartres, Tassagrad and Banana HQ; Termina will complete a vet inf in 2 turns). I further request an additional 4 fully healthy Infantry for Ubergrosk, PoM, Willsbury and Bacteria (which is defended by a lowly Swordman).

All of the cities I have just named are vulnerable to capture/Razing by the Shogun in two turns. If the SMC won't give the forces requested, then I order drafting to be done in the cities of Banana HQ and Tassagrad (I can not make orders for Ubergrosk, PoM, Willsbury and Bacteria or I would have ordered drafting there as well).

Turn 1
Nothing, pending my unit requests from the SMC and movement of the Shogun's Navy.

Turn 2
Chartres grows
WF- 1,2,3,4,6,11,12,13,19,20

Turn 3
Opiadom grows
WF- 1,2,4,6,7,8,11,12,20

Turn 4
Rheims grows
WF- 1,2,4,7,8,9,10,15,16,20

Turn 5

All good.

PW requests:
I have no pressing need for Irrigation in Central Apolyton. Please mine over all irr when practical.

Rush Buy requests:
If the money is available-
Rush Iron in Banana HQ on turn 1.
Rush Fact in Tassagrad on turn 2.

I will not be able to attend (not even pop in for a visit).

Old 1305 orders from 1/2 that have already been carried out have been deleted; all 1305 orders are new since the last chat.

Howitzerville and Heroes' Summit also need them to maintain a higher working population while staying in WLTKD, and more culture will help them avoid a flip. (Howitzerville: 368 lytons, cheaper by ~16 lytons a turn. Heroes' Summit: Rush in 1310 at earliest for 392 lytons, cheaper by 8 lytons a turn.)
Factory in San Cortes; 496 lytons in 1305, cheaper by 48 lytons/turn.
Courthouse in Oak Ridge; rush in 1315 for 280 at earliest. cheaper by 40 lytons per turn after that.
