I'm in.

I'll begin by blockading 3 of his cities around noon CT tomorrow ( thurs July 3rd).

He's got 189 slingers in escorial. I've got 80 phalanx and a ram in Jimbopolis. I will attack there simultaneously.

He's got 100 slingers and 3 swordsmen in escorial003. I've got 65 phalanx. I'll attack him there too.

I can send 60 phanlanx and 15 archers to escorial002. I don't know what he has there, but I assume it's similar to his other cities.

If I have blockades on him, are allies allowed to attack by sea? If not, it may make sense for someone else to blockade him and attack along with Boblius and I, since we are hitting him from the ground. If no one volunteers I go ahead with the blockade as planned.

So yeah, I'm going to hit his 3 cities that share islands with mine.

Bad idea? Should we just stick to a smaller-scale attack? I was kind of thinking shock-and-awe.

I think the simultaneous smash - all three armies arriving at nearly the same time - should take care of whatever meager defenses he has in place.

Escorial002 has 53 Slingers, a level 11 warehouse, and a level 1 wall. I'm sending 25 archers, 15 gunsmen, 4 catapults, and 4 gyrocopters.
Escorial003 has 189 Slingers, a level 12 warehouse, and a level 1 wall. I'm sending 50 slingers, 25 archers, 10 gunsmen, 2 catapults, 2 rams, and 1 gyrocopter
Escorial has 100 slingers, 3 swordsmen, a level 16 warehouse, and a level 5 wall. I'm sending 45 Slingers, 40 swordsmen, 45 archers, 4 catapults, 3 rams, and a gyrocopter.

All of his trading posts are level 1 - which means lousy bounty. But he does have over 750,000 gold so at least we can recover our costs.

Remember to check the island resources BEFORE launching the attack. If he has donated, there's no need to attack. Also remember to keep some defensive units at home. He may decide that a counter-attack will yield more stuff than he loses in our raid.

Got back from Costco much later than I expected. Just checked, no donations. Launching my attacks now.


Any wood I get will be donated to the island's resources. Other resources will be split with the other FSC's assisting.



aside to Puma - being a clan member is all that is keeping you out of these discussions. :)

I hit all three cities and easily rolled over all of them in 1 round. I've still got blockades for another 5 hrs. I'll donate all the wood I looted. Anybody need 500 crystal?

Boblius, I'm going assume you will have an easy time with him and not try to join you. Let me know if you need me to do anything else. I'm not going to get involved diplomatically, I'll let you do the talking.

yeah, I had a fairly uneventful raid, but I did get quite a bit of gold.

I sent another note, thanking him for his "donation" and telling it would be so much simpler for him if he just helped expand the islands' resources. I don't really even care if he donates a lot, or often, just that he helps out SOME.

I'll give him another week to get with the program, after which the "tax collectors" will show up again.

Forget the week. He's rebuilding his army (just slingers) and all it takes is one donation per island to get off the moocher list. Attack #2 commences tomorrow at noon CT.

Oh brother. Who is this guy?

Should we hit him separately like last time, or coordinated? I'm thinking if he's looted twice it will hurt more.

You're right about separate lootings hurting him more. Come in after me, I'll take the brunt of the battle this time.
