That Klerouchon Phalangitai unit is for Lydian Army indeed.
Btw, soon another Council Session will start! :2thumbsup:
Oh well... need to update the Library again!:sweatdrop:

I need battles... I want the next rank at least before the next council session... well now that I'm in border territory it might work ;)
Btw, since we are at war with the Ptolemaioi then all of their lands are open for conquest. People don't have to ask Basileus' permission all the time.
but they need armies of their own, otherwise they cannot get battlepoints ;-)

One of those usual phalangitai from Sidon and Klerouchon Phalangitai from Antiocheia belong to you. Also, Prodromoi unit in Antiocheia belong to the Lydian Army as well.
Okay sure thing...so will i not receive the other Hippakontistai? will they be replaced by the Prodromoi?
Yes.Quote:

I'm not going to be able to take the save/end the turn late tonight/early AM tomorrow. I'm at a friend's house for Thanksgiving (US Holiday), and EB is not on his comp. I'll be able to do it late PM tomorrow (or early Sat AM). We all got a bit too inebriated for me to drive back home tonight, I was planning on it but....
damn this is turnin out to be one long ass turn...
It's not as long as the one when we had 3 defensive battles.
Hey guys
As you may know, i am writing an AAR about my Character in WotB. I'm planning to write a summary of what happened in the AS and its several wars, so that the reader has an overview over the ambiance in which the character acts.
But it is hardly avoidable to mention some your characters in connection with important battles or with my character himself.
So would you mind if I mentioned your characters from time to time? I do not want to write their stories, this is up to you. But they are an important part of the story of my char, since he's not the only person in the world. I intend to write about some of their actings that concern my character directly or the fate of the AS in the summery, thats all.
I don't mind you using Mikithion at all.
will be away for the weekend again, if someone could move timmy and the jews to Antioch, that'd be great.
lol...timmy and the jews, sounds like a 50's band....
hahaha timmy and the jews!
I'm in B.F. New Jersey for the weekend because my bloody aunt moved to america, and now celebrates their muddled up holidays. Therefore I will not be attacking sinope this weekend, if I'm attacked by that army Incitatus will have to fight it... please dont get us killed! haha. Sorry.
nah...more like a South Park episode.Quote:

Milan invaded me as Spain with a massive army. They rained so many crossbows down on me I cant believe I won.
Since he's in Jersey and won't be back this weekend, the battle is for Incitatus. Just pointing that out.Quote:

I am also away from my EB computer, but I will be back early tomorrow. The rules say I have 48 hours, but I'll get it up asap.
Could someone who knows the EB traits better PM. I need some help with the next Event. ~:)
I just saw the Battle Report about the Battle fought be Incitatus. I did not realized that his avatar was not present in Celtic Punks army. And because CP couldn't fight the battle then it should've been autoresolved! The Rules are pretty clear about that.
At the moment no one will get battle points from this battle but I'm not sure this will be the only punishment. I'll think about it. If you people don't want your avatar to be attacked when you are away then make sure he is out of touch from enemy armies until you come back.
Sorry about that guys, I forgot that I had to go down to Jersey. And I thought that Inicutututus would be in my army for a possible attack on my army.
I asked him to take care of it for me in my absence, since I couldn't even get to a computer to check the forums.
which reminds me, I need to write the olympic update for my AAR
Well can we still take the save?Quote:

Please, don't take it personally. I understand how this thing happened and it's good to know that CP's avatar did not die there but the Rule is there for a reason. You should take care of your avatar.
Now, this goes to all of you, if you have to go away and can't play the game then move your avatar to a safe place or ask someone to do it for you. Second option is that you can let someone else join with yourself and that way there is someone who can fight battles for you.
I hope this will not ruin the game for you CP and Incitatus?
Obviously I am not the one who decides punishments, but I do think it is a little unfair. Celtic Punk didn't really do anything wrong. First of all he was unable to move his avatar to safety, but he assumed that if he was attacked I would have already reached his army. As it turned out I had not quite reached him when he was attacked, but maybe some people thought I had and I was told that I had a battle. In the back of my mind I was aware of the rule but for some reason it didn't click and so I fought the battle I was asked to fight. So if punishments are going to be given they should only be to me (but for what its worth I had no intent to break a rule/cheat the system and profit from it, I just wasn't thinking).
But if we are taking the rules very seriously, it would be easy to 'rewind' and let Celtic Punk fight his battle. Everybody can learn from this mistake and be sure to pay attention to the rules in future. If everyone is so committed to the rules then I am sure that the few people who have done moves would be willing to do them over once we get straight.
I guess you are right.
So, Celtic Punk will have his battle points intact but will not receive any from that battle.
But Incitatus will loose all of his battle points.
thanks Incitatus. I assume you are now with the Army, I'll be doing the siege right now. I promise Alex will be relatively unscathed. :P
Actually I haven't joined up yet, -45% winter movement penalty is a killer. I'll be there for sure next turn, but go ahead and attack if you want. The pontic king is the only garrison and only has 20 or so bodyguards.
There's a council next year correct? just checkin in
Done the battle, Uploading save.
This will be less of a battle and more wel... read the battle report in a few minutes when i post it
Celtic_Punk, That was a nice story. :yes:
navarro951, Yes, next year is the Council Session. ~:)
haha thanks, Ibn.
btw where did you get yer name?
"FATHER!"
For a moment there I thought it was all just going to end up like Star Wars....
Great story btw!
Cunobelinus, I am your father. *background Sith Imperial music*
lol
Yes, it was a good story, but I have two questions:
1. How the hell do you "stop the inevitable"?
2. Why the hell did you call the Pontic king "my lord"? You're not... not... no... you couldn't. Right? ~:shock:
hehehe thats a tough situation to get out of...good point thoQuote:

Sry
You can end the turn. I haven't got time to play it.
OK, s' cool.
Sry, I'm going to be away from this for couple of days now.
I'm bit sick and I just was waiting 4 hours behind my door because I forgot my keys inside! :wall:
EDIT: I try to update all threads in the next couple of days. The Influence should be the same as it was in the last Session.
lol thats waht happens when you forget your keys in Estonia... Up here in Canada its pretty much teh same.. Middle of january, nothin but the clothes on yer back.. your probably not goin to last long... Up here in the boonies anyway...
Who has the rank to be Chancellor?
All the 3 Satraps, 00jebus, kingsnake and I think there was someone else. I can't check my notes since they are in another pc and I'm using my wifes laptop. Basiclly everyone who are higher than Strategos.
Anyway, I'll mention this also that the current rank system does not satisfy me. I plan to propose a CA with some new ranks and some changes to the old ones. I'll try to do that tomorrow.
I have a request..
Please use bold when you say that you second an Edict. It's really hard to get that info from inside your text!
Thank You! :bow:
sorry guys, did miss the point that chars are not to be moved during the session.
just take merlinus' savegame instead of mine...
It seems that even Celtic Punk can run for Chancellorship!
Also, I really would like to know why Arrhenides named his kid 'Hippolochos'!? :laugh4:
Sry, but it sounds like 'Crazy Horse'! :beam:
oh god damnit now hes like a hippopotamus... ill find myself a fine celtic name for him dont worry. haha
is a hippopotamus really just a hip potamus?
btw Ibn, can you update my wife n kids profile?
EDIT: I got his fine celtic name haha - Weylin
Hey it is okay if i take the lydian army and capture Hierosolyma right? Like i dont have to ask for permission. I plan on taking it after the new chancellor term begins.
If you are going after a territory that is demanded to be taken by an edict (in this case 4.3 if it passes) or direct order of the Basileus, you are assumed to have permission as long as you are not relieved of your command.
Actually, if we are at war with a faction then all of their settlements are free to take. It's just that, if you go on a rampage and go after settlements that are not ordered to be taken by an Edict or by Basileus, you might end up in a place surrounded by enemies and with no reinforcements and without a support from the Council.
Navaroo, if you want to take Hierosolyma you might want to coordinate, as Theodoros is planning the same thing
Also, who ever gets there first must remember that 2 Ptolemaioi half stacks are coming from south. I think you don't want to share the faith of some other Strategoi some in-game years ago. :yes:
indeed there are many dangers down thereQuote:

Also this means that you, players, should decide whether you want to play as a general or a governor.
Since there isn't that many Armies but there are a lot of settlements then this gives another way to prove yourself.
Just some thoughts...
Is my character allowed to attain the new rank I-K? Or do you have to be actively playing the game?
It might be a good thing to be able to see the situation, what buildings can be constructed etc. Also, to quote your own SOT post: "Would you give a blind man a city to run?". ~;)
:wall: I walked right into that one... :laugh4:Quote:

The Royal army is heading there too, right?Quote:

Haha alerion dont kid urself, our empire surviving is my main worry not the town. So lets get a coordination going definitely, um best thing would be to beat the already near us Ptolemy army and then wait up for the RA to arrive so we can all march in and be their to reinforce or whatever is needed to help each other in the obviously up coming battles.
do you think a restriction should be put on on the race of someone who can run for chancellor?
you mean hoq many people can run for chancellor or how often one can run for it?
or do u mean actual like RACE like in-game heritage?
Like only Makedones or Hellenes?
Like only assassinating your opponent/s if you really want to win?
I'm very disappointed in this election, I expected bribery and corruption on a massive scale. Or perhaps my vote just wasn't worth anything...
I don't think so since we don't have that many people who actually can run for Chancellor but that should change with the new rank.Quote:

Edit: Also noticed i haven't gotten my bp's for relieving Sidon or has that not been done yet?
navarro, I probably missed that. It's fixed now.
ya no prob thanx!
So its blackmail is it? mark my words i will find out out.. And skin you alive.
you know who you are.... lol

Ya taking down Pontus was a great feat but that war was over when it began anyway. Lastly, why waste time and money mustering forces when i was nicely offering my services to get the thing started. THEN a new unit could definitely be used to get things started.
lol i wasnt makin a personal stab. Cunobelinus was just pissed that you told us to get off your ground, when its you who are in Syria.
again i reiterate... i will find you blackmailer... Yourlifeavatars life is going to be short lived.
Unless of course if it's someone like Antiochos who is already old. :sweatdrop:Quote:

Since I am nearby, may I have permission to take a unit of thanvare payahdag to aid me in removing the rebels?
(or should this post belong in the royal council)
@everyone - You can 'borrow' a unit if you have asked it from the Basileus. And since he is such a nice person and loved by all(:clown:) then I think he might even allow it. ~;)
