unit efficiency for defense
It's obvious from just looking at them, but if you do the math, Phalanx remain the best units for defense even compared to higher-end units and including upgrades. Because I don't want to bury the call to arms below I'll put the calculations in a comment.
questions about boats
Which ships do you find to be the most useful? Do you find yourself building up one big fleet to break blockades with or more moderate fleets at each city? I would assume that it would, but does that preference determine your choice between flamethrower and catapult ships?
Asshole Tax
Latest News: BANNED! Yes that's right, all three accounts have been BANNED from Beta World. I'm glad we could rip him off before we kicked him off.
So, while this guy won't do a damn bit of damage to me, i would like for him to know that it was foolish to even think about it. His towns are VERY spread out, and somebody is probably close to at least one of his towns.
He's actually fairly lucrative to pillage, and i'm guessing he's not smart enough to leave anybody behind. All of his towns are called Spartan Palace, and they are on the following islands:
47:26
As of 3/20 10:25pm: Only 1 phalanx / 0 ships. Lvl 3 Wall, 12 Warehouse, 8 Trading Port.
I would love to pillage this clown but I'm about 15 hours away so it's not quite worth it for me (speedwell)
29:69
39:76
As of 3/20 8:18pm: Only 4 phalanx / 0 ships. Lvl 1 Wall, 8 Warehouse, 7 Trading Port.
This is a lot closer for me (speedwell), so I've already got a few guys en route to pillage.
28:68 - Rest House
If you're feeling up for it, i wouldn't mind seeing him take a few beatings from various members of the alliance. I'll post spy reports when i get them.
Addendum: This guy is a definite multi. He's sending attacks from multiple accounts that are quite coordinated. For that, i've reported him. And i'll steal his resources to boot.

Scores!!!!
Whoa, did anybody else's score drop or change extremely?
I dropped 700 spots and 2000 points since this morning for no reason.

Alliance woes
So...
I have three embassies and am working on my fourth. There are three free diplomatic points right now, and there will be many, many more forthcoming. So, to raise our alliance ranking, we should start recruiting. I'm trying to think of people we know who have yet to join. The list is
- Jim has a friend out there somewhere.
- Dan Bowen does not yet have embassies.
- Shyam plays, right?
I don't like the idea of opening up the alliance to people we don't know. I'm just saying that we should focus on recruiting people we know as vigorously as possible and exhaust those avenues. We are no longer constrained by diplo points, only by interest.
UPDATE - I think we should start recruiting people we don't know. Diplo points are just sitting there. Thoughts?
