OFFICIAL: Plans for Austrians and Germans!

[Pedrunn]

We have been attacked by the German. Which is in the other front of our empire. So for any further effect we have two front wars. Still we are very close from getting the Austrians city of Pilsen.

But as far as for the German war, womabatoon will be ours in less than 2 turns.

Still i would like to ask you people what shall we do in the next 5 turns (expected time until next chat) about this two civilizations. I would like to inform you that we have about 30 units ready for war in the East fron (for an attack in the Germans) and about 20 units in the west front (for an attack in the Austrians).

Attack Austrians means keep atacking the city of Pilsen!
Attack Germans means an attack in a city still TBD!

So what shall we do?

[child of Thor]

well we need to go for more cities, so keep at austria for a while(i have changed my mind - i was thinking that we could try for a cese-fire with them.) and see how much we can take without looseing to many armies.
Take back Wombertoon, god darn those pesky germans! And then see what kind of impression a diplomatic game will make with them(if any ).
We could use this to galvanise our efforts in taking out austria asap - that will give us the cities to really start cranking out troops to defend our homes!
(and some guys thought we had been in a war already!!).
Its gonna be fun!(or its gonna be very un-fun)

As said in the other thread... ( Can't we discuss one issue in one thread? )

Some of this is rather difficult to say right now, but it should be clear that we should take the opportunity to make good allies of the Thai and if possible the English.

As for Austria - depends how a war with Germany goes, if it goes well, then we should quickly make peace with them and batter the Germans as long as we can, until they are at a level with Austria. If we start to loose against Germany and don't success in making peace with them then, then also make peace with Austria. If we just retake Wombatoon and get peace with Germany back, then and only then keep on sending forces towards Austria.

So in essence, I say try a cease fire with Austria, then start on killing of Germany. If the resistence we encounter doesn't suggest we will loose against them, then befriend Austria and keep on battering Germany. Otherwise retreat and if we can afford it start taking on Austria again, if we are weak by that time then befriend them and everyone else.

Since Pilsen will soon be ours I voted attack both civs now. When we have Pilsen offer the Austrians a cease fire (maybe they even give us something in return?) and focus on Germany. Take Nurnberg, Cologne, Duesseldorf and Essen for a start

Just a bit more spamming to increase your post count

If we would get catapults fairly quick, we could start fighting both, although the German front would be more defensive in the beginning.

And NO, we need to make sure that Austria will never ever pose a thread to us!

More seriously, I have already expressed my opinion in another thread and during the 19th Turn Chat. We should retake Wombatoon, because we must free our people and because we can't accept having a foreign city inside our inner territory, and ask for peace immediately after with the Germans. Germany will perhaps not accept our first offer but will be hard pressed as they are also at war with the English.

I suppose we have finished the voting if you didnt voted yet do so. I am already creating the strategy here
