Noticed the TO was bringing Mangonel's into the fight, so can they open settlements?

Are they bigger than trebs? If so they can open all levels of wall.

I think they require the same level of building as catapults?? but are mainly meant as a anti-army weapon, not buildings. However it's been a long time since I actually used one, so I'm not positive.

Mangonels require the Siege Works, same level as a Trebuchet. So yes, I can open any kind of wall with it :D

Mongols are up.

Are you sure your thinking of this mod, cause when I looked they only require a catapult maker...

I have checked and my ruling on the Mangonel is that they only require the same level of building as a catapult, not a trebuchet, and therefore can only open wooden walls or lower, not stone walls.

Myth, did you use any Mangonels to open stone walls last turn? If so could you please replay?

Yes I did. I'll have to redo the save then.

*sad face* it is an easy mistake to make, cosidering the manogel and trebuchet are both very similar in size and structure...

Sorry for the gap in the rules, I forgot they existed.

Mongols are up.

HRE is up

I think Visor's away again for a few days - any chance that you could sub again Zim?

How long is he out for?

I can sub again if need be but I'd feel wierd taking someone's turn a second time in a row without directions. Each sub I do potentially hurt Visor's plans more if I misread him. If he's only gone 3-4 days could we wait for him?

yeah let's wait then - he may be back by now anyway

Save doesn't work, sorry. Getting a corrupt message.

How about this one?

I'm glad to know my valiant defense of my homeland has made such a memorable impression!
:)

I hope I've made a bit more of a lasting impression on the TO >:}

Konigsberg recaptured; the Cusader Charles is slain and his army defeated; the Hochmeister's is defeated at the siege of Marienburg

The armies of the tyrants lay defeated and their rich lands lie defenseless and ripe for the taking, freedom reigns!

The whole world may have turned against freedom, but at least I can die happy knowing I brought the Order to its knees :clown:

Mongols are up!

I'm impressed Thanatos! It seems that I overestimated the imbalancedness of my troops, allowing this cpratastic crusading general to lead them instead of that beastly general I have. Overall because everyone said the last game was a stomp where Tristan 1v5 -ed the whole lot of you I thought I could afford to split my forces between Lithuania and Poland. It seems neither Poland nor Lithuania are such pushovers as to be steamrolled by one single stack, no matter how good the troops. If I had played conservatively (ie. not listen to everyone about how imba my faction is) I would have mad nice with the Catholics and marched trough Lithuania and Novgorod like so much pie.

So I learn now never to plan my general strategy based on hear-say (I had never played the Teutonic expansion prior to this game)

I am not dead yet, so don't count me out! :) And I have a strong ally to fall back on as well!

Well, it took something like double the troops to take out the crusading army, so it wasn't that balanced ;)

Definitely haven't forgotten about your allies, your monster alliance was the whole reason I attacked you in the first place. Figured my best and only chance, would be to hit you while you were distracted, cause I knew if I waited for you to finishes off Poland, it would only be a matter of time till I was literally steamrolled. Course I might actually be in a decent position now if it wasn't for Nov getting knocked out early on and the Mongols turning against me. Phonics!!! >:( Although odds are Tristan was planning the same thing :(

I actually haven't struck a blow against you yet, and even if I'd been your ally these past two turns I couldn't have helped you. too far away still.

So my switching sides hasn't hurt Lithuania really. Poland is another story...

Well, helping Poland and keeping the To and its allies tied up, was kind of how the Mongols were supposed to help me...

Poland got more or less destroyed the turn before I was able to do anything to help it, making it close to suicidal for us poor little Mongols to try to intervene.

Who said Denmark was going to intervene? I'm fine doing my own thing thank you very much.
