Unification of the Isles: Britannia Hotseat (completed, winners Myth and Zim)

Overconfidence? All a facade. I'm just hoping when my turn comes no more than one of those armies has vanished due to inability to retreat (while either of them should have been able to stand up to the Irish army, I've learned the danger in hotseats of counting on what "should" happen). :laugh4:

Nah, they are still both there, I am just hoping my devious plan of deviousness works out. It probably wont...

I think Wales has enough on his plate in trying to somehow take me on. And when I klll that army of yours in Southern England, Wales will have my undivided attention.

Ireland up. The army North of Shaftsbury has been smashed. One castle liberated from Welsh rule. Two more to follow next turn.

The Irish are running like little girls.

Are we really? Then why was Prince Rufus and his army, as well as the detached army besieging Shaftsbury, defeated? And why were two english ships sunk?
Also, a small Norwiegan army was defeated and Athenry was retaken.

Wales up!

King Simon and the entire army in that fort east of Shrewsbury can't move next turn(or sally).

Yeah I get that, it's just quite ahistoric to have an English King called Simon. Doesn't seem right somehow....George, Edward, Charles, James, Henry, John, Richard no problem. Simon, not so much...

Oh derp, I forgot I had to sub Zim. Phonics can you send me the PW for this account?

Ireland up.

News from Norway: That preliminary sieging force from Ireland that was trying to liberate the Westernmost town with the Trebuchet inside it has been defeated, it can't move this turn.

News from England: "BWAHAHAH! Wales takes pried in beating England back yet we see King Brian's tattered host limping behind your heels. You outnumbered us three to one and had your day. Step closer towards Nottingham to see how things go for thou and thine!"

"Brian! Your head will roll in the soil of great England! And that "army" to the South best make haste to the shorelines else it will be butchered to the last man!"

Not much to report this turn.

Norway!!!!

I'm on it when i get home.

Ireland.

Newcastle-upon-tyne taken.

King Deykin is a weak general and has been soundly defeated. He cannot move next turn.

York retaken.

Two Irish settlements under siege. One has that pesky Southern stack that has dwindled to half strength. Once it has been dealt with the only Irish presence on English soil will be Brian's stack. But he won't be able to reinforce..

On the other hand, Wales is soon to be either bankrupt or without an army - that mostly mercenary stack packs a good initial punch but soon loses to more cost-effective and better trained troops raised at a castle.

Naturally since I was sitting Zim I have ignored Wales's please for peace. I won't speak on his behalf but I'm pretty sure he'll not agree to peace atm. England refuses peace and will fight for victory.

BTW, is Zim back yet? I'm a little apprehensive about having the two strongest factions being controlled by the same player?

I'm back. I'll get to this within the day. :bow:

Oh come on, what's the worst thing that could possibly happen :devil:

England is up

https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/local...id=205&id=9466

I will be away from tomorrow until Monday morning.

Irish army slaughtered and Shaftsbury recaptured.
King Brian's ambush was unsuccessful and he was defeated yet again. He can't move next turn.
Small Irish unit that was heading East of Shaftsbury has been discovered and killed.
Welsh siege of the stone fort north of Gloucester lifted, those units can't move next turn.
Lincoln besieged.

Ireland's forces on the mainland have dwindled, and Wales's only remaining army of note is with their King. He can head either towards Nottingham or Gloucester. In both paths he will face defeat and hopefully death.

Annoying Irish assassins have been killing off my merchants with success. I think that King Brian will have to be drowned in a cess pit for his crimes.

Ireland up.

Bump
