Open challenge: Duel to the Death

[Askthepizzaguy]

ATPG versus AndyNgFL, Vanilla 1.3
Russia vs Scotland
Turn 22
Strategy: Blitz
Priority: (hidden)

Events since last report:

Russia has conquered Scandinavia, Arhus, Stettin, Thorn, Krakow, and several other provinces. A minor Scottish invasion force consisting of their faction leader and a .5 stack of heavy cavalry has been repelled. They flee now into Danish territory, or what remains of it.

In the meanwhile, Portugal, Spain, and England have taken advantage of Scotland's unwise gamble to invade Russian lands so early, and Scotland is having difficulty repelling the invaders.

Lesson of the day: Take care of the AI first, because wars against humans leave little troops to spare for defending your flanks from AI forces.

Scotland has contacted us regarding a concession, but I feel it is too soon in the war to offer unconditional surrender. We've even offered to suspend the war until they repel the invaders, and we've offered them Russian arms to assist if necessary. However, the strategic situation is clear. Russia is not threatened by any power, and we have crippled two factions already and have repelled a third. Scotland is crumbling before AI invaders.

Should they quit now, it would be understandable, but I take no pleasure in putting this game so prematurely in the win column for me.

Our twin stacks of Russian mafia are chasing down the Scottish invaders as we speak, and threatening to obliterate their allies in the process. Ranged and javelin horsemen, heavy spears, and 4 generals versus a half stack of heavy knights is not an even matchup. Still, I'd like them to fight a battle with me before conceding.

I'd like to once again thank all my challengers for the good fights they have given me. I may joke from time to time about wanting to annihilate your people, but I sincerely do appreciate the games I've played with all.
