I am aware of both situations, I'll probably have Athalwolf or Gerhard travel north to deal with the rebels, and as for the witch, I have to bring in some high power priests from outside Italy.
Edit: Thanks for sorting out the Temporal Divergence GH :2thumbsup: .

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread X
I'm just worried about Wolfgang getting "accidently" sunk at sea.

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread X
This is the latest save:

@Ignoramus:
As I'm aware myself, travel by sea is risky. However if Wolfgang runs into trouble, it will be accidental, no quotes or anything.

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread X
Yes, generally when we have a Crusader Chancellor no foul play is involved. :shifty:
-
Re: King of the Romans OOC thread X
Though in Wolfgang's case, many would argue that its justified.
And this is directed at the character, not the player. I think it is only our respect and friendly feelings for the player himself that prevent us from doing something absolutely horrible to the avatar. :laugh4:

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread X
Maybe the Sicilians would be happy to oblige by sinking my fleet. :thumbsdown:
-
Re: King of the Romans OOC thread X
Well, as OK can attest to, sea travel is dangerous enough without worrying about anything shifty.

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread X
Grabbed the save, will fight it and get it back up soon.
Hmm, I haven't done this in so long I've forgotten where to upload to. I'll poke around in the rules after I've finished and see if I can find the PBM uploader, but if anyone can point me in the right direction for that info I'd greatly appreciate it.

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread X
It can be accessed from two links in the stickies:
- How does one PBM? (second post)
- A filespace for PBM

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread X
Excellent Tamur.
The battles for 1268 are concluded. I will continue on with the save when I return home from work around 1200 GMT. Barring unforseen circumstances I will have the queue up for 1270 after that. Unless world peace breaks out in the game, which I seriously doubt.

Medieval 2 Total Peace?
I knew I bought the wrong game... :furious3:
M2TP, I can see it now, spawning endless debates in the Citadel on whether it is better to turtle...or turtle.

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread X
Over the AI portion of the turn, we have two defensive battles.
First, FactionHeir, Hans was attacked by an Egyptian force, 1:1 odds it's made up of militia and siege equipment. Take the save:
http://www.totalwar.org/patrons/pbm/kotr1268-5.zip
Fight the battle and let it run through until it reaches the next defensive battle, save and then post it.
Second, Cecil XIX, the Hungarians will attack Sigismund von Mahren's army. Take FH's uploaded save and fight the battle. Once you exit the battle, save as soon as possible and upload it, you can interrupt AI movement by using ESC to get the game menu. This way if I get a save before our turn begins, I get the all the pop ups.

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread X
god, fritz sure made peter look bad...

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread X
OK
How big and what quality is the attacking Hungarian force?
-
Re: King of the Romans OOC thread X
It's one big army and two smaller ones. Mix of dfks, knights, militia, HAs and crappy bowmen. The odds are 1:1.

There's a small update in the Chancellor's report for 1268.

hehe, nothing quite as fun as using a nicely composed army of knights, spears and pavise crossbowmen against a whole pile of militia-level enemies. The battle line collision was very impressive to watch, but the first units routed in under a minute.

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread X
Will take save in approx 9 hours from now.

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread X
Well, I fought the battle and won a clear victory, but after reading the battle statistics screen, i accidentally pressed the check button instead of the back to stats button... so no screen.
I kind of remember the rough numbers though:
HRE: Fielded (554) Lost (83) Killed (721?) Captured (283)
Egypt: Fielded (1088) Lost (1032?) Killed (146) Captured (0)
Ransom was rejected.
Battle was actually quite tough with their arty parking on the slope and them having loads in the desert where HRE troops (especially late mounted) are weak. That compounded by arty crews having a better morale than the best knights (dismounted and mounted) available to anyone in the game and refusing to rout till the very end. Their infantry wasn't too bad though except when it surrounded my Feudals (I think I had 9 left at the end) but the 2H axes are great vs cav.

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread X
All right then, I've got the save. Should be done in the next few hours.
-
Re: King of the Romans OOC thread X
Thanks, FH and good luck Cecil XIX. The Egyptians came out of nowhere, I wasn't expecting a large force like that out in the desert.
-
Re: King of the Romans OOC thread X
Get em Cecil!!
Arnold's watching with keen anticipation!!! :inquisitive:

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread X
What's the name of the Sicilan captain OK?

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread X
I don't know, I'm at work and can't access the save.

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread X
Battle completed, file uploaded. Though I must confess I forgot that the battle statistics only shows thirteen units for some damn reason. Ah well. The campaign has sure gotten interesting.

I seem to have gotten the image of a bunch of Teutonic knights dipping Bane's hand in warm water while he sleeps. Odd, that.
