[Scipio Africanus]

Hey guys I can play today from 14:00 to almost 17:00 or 18:00,so if anyone wants a fight against the Getai call me in hamachi networks EBG1 and EBG2.Btw look at the battle I fought yesterday against Agrippa,it's the most dramatic battle ever http://www.megaupload.com/?d=2DSAQ0QN

[Jebivjetar]

Ok, i just played a battle and quit it because some rules people must respect:

1) you can't charge enemy unit with your cavalry through your own foot men who already charge that unit (you can charge only from behind/rear = outflank that enemy unit)
2) you can't run through enemy unit, neither with your cavalry, neither with your infantry (keep your eye on what your units are doing, don't let them run around like some headless chickens) :7
3) especially you can't charge an enemy unit through your own men who already fight that unit and then run through enemy unit to charge it from behind (epic mistake, because with that you don't respect previous 2 rules).

Who was your enemy?

[Jebivjetar]

Well, i don't want to tell his name, i just don't want to stigmatize people. Anyway i hope he will change his behavior for the next fight

[antisocialmunky]

I've done that to MountainGoat to make him realize he needs rules like other tournements. I wasn't the one doing it to Jeb though.

Also, loose units don't count as not run throughable. Otherwise lame.

[mountaingoat]

and if you read the rules i setup on the very first post , you would see that they are in there!

*edit , nor did you say anything in that battle about "showing that the rules need to be setup" i do recall you claiming that you were not "running them through" ??

anyway

waiting on phalanx300 to complete group 1

[antisocialmunky]

And if you read the above 3 posts you'll realize we're not talking about just a run through.

That was something else though and I wasn't running through with my infantry only order them to mass run behind in which they start engaging the first thing they run into which is perfectly fair. Now if you have problems with units getting hooked onto other units then well, I'm not sure what to do about that.

You don't have any rules on charging with cavalry or chariots and I've fairly sure you remember the games where I charged through my own men to punch a hole through the middle of your lines. And its not like you haven't resorted to chariots through your own army. You're smart enough to decide whether its needed or not and I didn't hear you complaining about it then.

[mountaingoat]

want to explain this then? -Units cannot be pushed through other units in attack mode or in defensive movements.

and I've fairly sure you remember the games where I charged through my own men to punch a hole through the middle of your lines.

where are you going with this? ,i have noted it , i tend to just leave it, as it was already mid battle, not like i am going to just quit the game and refuse to play.(this was in a practice game)

And its not like you haven't resorted to chariots through your own army. You're smart enough to decide whether its needed or not and I didn't hear you complaining about it then.

chariots are uncontrollable when your order them to charge , and this is the only reason they might break through the lines , i assure you they kill 0 infantry and are most vulnerable whilst attempting to get them out of a melee or a stuffed up order. On top of that , i will mostly order them to get out the same way they charged ,unless they completely disobeyed, though cav do not do this , they will follow orders with little to no path finding errors.

[antisocialmunky]

Your rule is vague: enemy units or all units? That's basically what I'm getting at.

[Knight of Heaven]

The units that the player control.... i dont see your point ASM?

[Aulus Caecina Severus]

Well, I think this rules work... if someone cheat => penality!

now... ready to fight

P.S. for Mountaingoat: this should be JAN ONLINE TOURNAMENT... true?

[antisocialmunky]

-Units cannot be pushed through other units in attack mode or in defensive movements.

So can you move units through your own units or not? Its pretty obviously says to not move through enemy units but what about through your own but goat seems to say that it includes your units too in the post above.

Does it include stacking units on top of each other? Does it include reinforcing your line since units will move through another unit to attack? Since he says it applies to charging your horses through your own men, yes it requires clarification.

[mountaingoat]

no moving through your own units (like your cav charge) and enemy units.

you can have a bit of leeway towards things like skirmishers running though your own units in skirmishers mode, and when you are reinforcing gaps.. but you do not push units through other units when reinforcing anyway .. units will end up forming together in midst of battle .. but this is not the same as pushing / force moving through your and the enemy lines , as well as stacking and any other(what would be considered) exploit tactics.

P.S. for Mountaingoat: this should be JAN ONLINE TOURNAMENT... true?

yes but then by the time everyone joined up , we would not be playing until feb
