That's true -- I hadn't thought about it until you asked. Maybe the rules just aren't clear about it, or the people who made the site thought it was not that important, and didn't want to hold up the game any longer? FYI, thanks for reducing my city at Miletus in Game 1. Took me forever to find where Miletus was, then once I found it, I didn't realize I had a city there. Finally came back to me that I got it with Treachery last round. |

Yep. and if I had paid attention, I would have dropped the population there with Famine, since it's not doing me any good over there.

Warhammer must have it out for me in the v1 game... A 10-unit loss out of 18 vulnerable units total? Crete is crumbling before your eyes...
Btw, there's actually no combination of moves I can make to reduce exactly 10 units -- all but 1 of my farms have 1 unit, 1 has 2 units; all but 1 of my cities reduce to 1, 1 reduces to 2. I can reduce 9 units or 11, but not 10. I decided to be proactive and went ahead and submitted a help ticket. |

Dola--
I'm also a moron and forgot about my African outpost. Sabrata's 2 units allowed me to remove a 10th unit from there and make it through the calamity round with TWO cities remaining! |

These calamities seem just awful. Is the strategy to avoid them at all costs, or is it just given that yo'ure going to get blasted by some of them at some point?

He's talking about Take One, which you're not in. We'll get to calamities in Take Two soon. Autumn, I think the answer is 'both' -- avoid them at all costs, but realize that you're going to get blasted. And to some extent, it doesn't matter that much if you get "hit" with the calamity, since whoever ends up with Famine and Epidemic also gets to dole out losses to their enemies. |

It's been a few days since we've had any action in the first FOFC game. I think it's tarcone's turn.

Sorry about that. I wanted to take a little while to strategize, and finding that time was hard.
