1.6 bil combined net in two accounts, only one of which took turns.
Sacking for resources is fun.
This was only the test round.
Did not mean to offend anyone.
But, it will make a nice sig addition.

Sacking, like that attack on RWL that takes reasources with just regular troops. *conciders adding to dictionary*
I'm not sure if this counts as a stratigity though... More like one tatic in an indy stratigy.

I had 2.8 bil net and you wouldn't have got first if I didn't get rid of a ton of food for you.

I object; we thought of Attack For Land/Cash first. So why should it be called Sack?

Maybe because no one wants to say "attacking for food and cash" when they can say "Sack". If we don't want to use the word "sack" we need our own name for it.

Well, tania just took me down. If I have time tomorrow morning, I'll return the favor. Bugfinding until then, because there's no way I'll get enough turns in enough time tonight. RWL didn't invent sacking. Neither did the Gauls, but they popularized it within our history textbooks. So, sack is fine.
