Only for Eugene V. Debs and Manfred von RichthofenThe Persian navy intends to isolate my army in Potidaea. With local numerical superiority and the element of surprise we could crush the Persian fleet there and allow more reinforcements to arrive. Only for Kliment Jefremovitš Vorošilov and Manfred von RichthofenI agree.
When shall we do this? Because Persia could send more triremes to there, and this would cancel our current numerical superiority at navy. |

Debs and Manfred von RichthofenI think as soon as possible since, as you said Persia can send more ships. I think we should blockade the enemy fleet's supply routes amd destroy the navy and if someone comes online later they can send their fleet to support the battle against the isolated enemy. |

In the sea, our 85 triremes blockade the Persian Fleet which is blockading Potidaea, so we isolate them. This is a sudden surprise for the Persian fleet, which is an advantage for the Athenian fleet. The other 5 triremes remain in Gigonus. 50 triremes are being sent to the waters near Gigonus, they will arrive in 6 posts. Shrimant Peshwa Madhavrao Bhat |

For Eugene V. Debs and Kliment Jefremovitš Vorošilov Okay. Can I declare war on Boeotia too? I need to secure Corinthia from any Boeotian-Persian attack. If all of you agree I'll be sending 1/3rd of my troops (10K) to siege Patras.
Anyway, should I send my own troops (I'll send 7.5K troops to Potidaea as reinforcements if you agree that I should send reinforcements) to help in occupying the city? (Potidaea) Only for Manfred von Richthofen and Kliment Jefremovitš VorošilovI agree. The only thing is, Patras is in the Achaean region, not in Boeotia, as the map shows. So, I think you might not have meant Patras.  For Eugene V. Debs and Kliment Jefremovitš Vorošilov sorry, I thought Patras was part of Boeotia, the map is sometimes confusing  |

15,000 Infantrymen and 5000 cavalry are sent to Olynthus, so as to secure the rear of my army near Potidea. They are expected to arrive in Olynthus in 6 posts. The soldiers capture Gigonus. They start to fortify the city. The said army has arrived in Olynthus. Of these men, 5000 Infantrymen move to support the army blockading the Isthmus from North. |

4000 of the Infantry and 2000 of the cavalry near Potidea boarded 30 triremes as well as escorted with another 30 triremes are heading to Neapolis in Pallene peninsula. They are expected to arrive in 3 posts. Rest of the army there will block the isthmus from north. Rest of the 40 triremes will blockade Pallene peninsula and Potidea. Another 50 triremes are being sent to enforce the blockade. These will arrive there in 6 posts. The infantry in Potidaea arrange into the phalanx and start marching towards the Persians. Persian Infantry too forms a phalanx of 1000 soldiers wide with 6 soldiers deep. The cavalry [1000 strong] is stationed on the right flank of the army. The army in Neapolis starts moving up the peninsula and will attack Potidaea from South. This army will arrive in Potidaea in 2 posts. |

Shrimant Peshwa Madhavrao BhatWith reinforcements of 50 triremes, the force blockading Potidaea had already shored up to 90 triremes. The other 60 triremes that were used to transport and escort the army to Neapolis too arrive to shore up the said force. Now 150 triremes have assembled there to blockade Potidaea. Another 200 triremes are being sent to blockade the Greek force blockading the Persian force blockading Potidaea. They are expected to arrive in 6 posts. |

I will send my whole navy (160 triremes) to join the by the Athenian-Eturian fleet I hereby declare war on Boeotia ( eeeeef) for being a Persian friend, and the Peloponnesian League cannot tolerate any Persian friend. The Persians can attack from Boeotia any time now, so I will attack sooner than later. 7,500 Spartan Troops set sail from Corinth, then will land on Paralia by 3 posts. |
