Re: V&V Saves and Turn-by-Turn Reports
Save is back !!
Lothar recruited a unit of Merc Frankish Knights for 1080
One of the toughest battle I fought of all times... I even thought at one point I would hit "withdraw" to save my avatar... I didn't expect at all to find an army on my path there and could have chosen not to attack at that point but I just had to try... And take whatever consequences...
Finally, it ended in an heroic victory with a battle marker (phew !!)
Luckily, the terrain played in my favour... The screenshot doesn't truely display the gradient of the slope...
Lothar gained some good traits... Both his unit and his mercs gained + 4 exp. though they're heavily depleted.
I tried to ransom the prisoners for a hefty sum of florins but to no avail
Maybe this will make Lothar a bit more presentable at court...

Wow Tristan that must have been a festival of charging and withdrawing! I applaud your patience and skill...
Re: V&V Saves and Turn-by-Turn Reports
Defeated two small Hungarian armies and executed the prisoners of both, they won't trouble the Reich again.
here is the save

Taking the save.
-edit- Done. Heinrich has placed Frankfurt under siege.
Re: V&V Saves and Turn-by-Turn Reports
I guess I should take the save again so I can make my move.
Re: V&V Saves and Turn-by-Turn Reports
Re: V&V Saves and Turn-by-Turn Reports
Guys, if you don't mind waiting I'd like to take the save again so I can move the merc spears south from Brandenburg towards Osterreich. I'm at work right now but I'll be able to do this later this evening.
Alternatively if some helpful soul would like to do this for me I'd be very grateful, and the game can continue without a delay.
Re: V&V Saves and Turn-by-Turn Reports
I'll do it, so, uh, taking the save... again.

Re: V&V Saves and Turn-by-Turn Reports
Here are the announcements for the end of the season of 1117.
https://i802.photobucket.com/albums/...ur/Map1116.jpg
- Your relationships with several factions have changed notably. Relationships worsened:
- Spain - Poor
- Scotland - Poor
- Portugal - Poor
- You have pleased His Holiness by successfully building a Small Church in Prague, and thus propagating the proper worship of the Lord in this city.
- Accused of foul acts of heresy, it would appear Theodericus der Bartige's ways are pure enough to spare him being found guilty of heresy.
In addition, here is the Financial Chart and Assets List.

Finally, here is the save. It will remain open for 48 hours, until 20:00 GMT on Wednesday, March 9th.
Re: V&V Saves and Turn-by-Turn Reports
Here's the save
The Prinz is on the move once more. I hired a spy which TCV is to pay for.
Cecil, Captain whatever his name is, the merc spears which I moved into Nuremburg are on my account not TCV's. He's just paying for the xbows that are still with him.
Re: V&V Saves and Turn-by-Turn Reports

fortified the bridge across the danube.
Re: V&V Saves and Turn-by-Turn Reports
Re: V&V Saves and Turn-by-Turn Reports
Save is back...
Lothar once again crossed the Milanese border, dealing with 300 archers standing border duty and marched north to Bern where he defeated a few Frenchmen intent on laying siege to Bern where Duke Bernardo is seeking shelter... Was Lothar willing to reinforce the Milanese Duke or simply seeking to himself lay siege and put the Duke to ransom ? No one knows...
Re: V&V Saves and Turn-by-Turn Reports
Hey cecil, it looks like we no longer have the "don't fight hungary" mission from the pope anymore. I didn't see it in th emission list, so is it A-okay for us to attack Hungary now?
Re: V&V Saves and Turn-by-Turn Reports
And which army is Harold in command of?
Re: V&V Saves and Turn-by-Turn Reports
unfortunately none right now, but if we are able to attack hungary I am going to need you to join me, (jens herden) so we can attack the hungarian army and try to get in and besiege budapest.
Re: V&V Saves and Turn-by-Turn Reports
Harold should have orders from Herden, but as far as I know he has no troops to command yet.
Re: V&V Saves and Turn-by-Turn Reports
Right now I am just waiting to see if we are able to attack hungary
Re: V&V Saves and Turn-by-Turn Reports
Okay, Harold, you can either stay in Wien and continue governing it for a turn, then come and join me in an assault against the hungarians next turn, or you can come join my force at the bridge, but I will be in command there so any battles fought will be fought be me.
Re: V&V Saves and Turn-by-Turn Reports
Right, taking the save. Time to make some donuts.

Frankfurt has been liberated.
https://i113.photobucket.com/albums/.../VV/vv_002.jpg
There will probably be a battle report within the next 24 hours, once I sort out all the screenshots I took. Basically, the Kaiser's army took huge losses clearing the way for Theo's merry band to provide the hammer blow. Recovered a lot of casualties after the fight though, which was a pleasant surprise.
Frankfurt is once again the capital of the Reich. The citizens are so happy to be back under the Kaiser's benevolent thumb that construction of a brothel has already started.
-edit- ah yes, the all-important save.

Re: V&V Saves and Turn-by-Turn Reports
Turn has ended, stand by for next turn.
Re: V&V Saves and Turn-by-Turn Reports
Re: V&V Saves and Turn-by-Turn Reports
Sir Jens Herden has triumphed, slaughtering all but a few men in the large Hungarians army, and taking only 53 casualties of his own. Of course, we did have a bridge no our side, and they were composed of horse archers, so I think all credit goes to the bridge.
After the battle the turn jumped to the HRE one before I had a chance to save, so I hope that is okay. Here is the HRE save, magdeburg has been besieged.
