Re: Open challenge: Duel to the Death
ATPG versus TriforceV, BC 1.5
Oman vs Jerusalem
Turn 18
Strategy: Blitz
Current Priority: Seljuks
REPLAY GAME, 1-0 Oman
With the utter annihilation of our main forces at Aleppo, and the destruction of our reserve forces at the Edessa fortification, the battle seems to be swinging back in Jerusalem's favor. However, Jerusalem's forces are at half strength, while ours continues to grow overall.
We now have three full stacks of reserve units, one of which just took Kermanshah (Seljuk), and is beseiging another Seljuk fortress. The war against the Seljuks is now irreversibly in our favor, we will utterly annihilate them.
the Abassids are helpessly stuck in their final province, with enough troops to deter a direct assault... for now. But once my forces are in range, they are doomed.
Should Jerusalem advance, their spies will take heavy hits from our counterspies, and if they succeed in taking Edessa, they will be holding already-sacked and totally worthless territory we can easily afford to lose, and they will also be placing their forces dangerously close to mine. As such, we do not fear an invasion by crusader forces at all. Let them come... let them come...
Their blood will paint the way to the future!
ATPG versus Ibn-Khaldun, Vanilla 1.3
Sicily versus Egypt
Turn 12
Strategy: Blitz
Current Priority: Turks
Mosul has fallen. Baghdad is next. The Turks' main holdings are not under threat, but the war is entirely in our favor. With our superior navy and the endless horde of infantry and cavalry I've spawned, it is only a matter of time.
Meanwhile, our forward positions in Ragusa have advanced. The Venetians have assembled a mighty force of italian troops and mailed knights which we are not foolish enough to attack directly as they have a superior tactical position. However, we have enormous reserves coming from Thessalonica; the Istanbul invasion force.
We have one large stack of troops en prise from pirates in the red sea, they have a chance to destroy our boat which will sink a rather heavy investment of jihadis moving from Jedda. These are the risks I am willing to take. Should they succeed, we will simply form another stack of troops closer to the front line with the money I save.
We are now allied with the infidels in Sicily. Should they attack us now, their reputation will take a hit, and their navies no longer have zone of control advantages. Our alliance with them is nothing more than a tactical trump card, and we do not even hide it.
ATPG versus Warman8, Vanilla 1.3
Moors versus Holy Roman Empire.
Turn 8
Strategy: Blitz
Current Priority: Spain and Italy
The capital of Spain has fallen, and their main recruitment facility at Toledo is next. Palermo, Sicily is about to be destroyed, thus crippling Sicily forever. Their invasion fleet at Algiers scampered away like a bunch of cowards. No sign of any resistance from France, Milan, or the Holy Roman Empire.
Editor's note: Please program the AI to engage in kamikaze attacks. If I am at war with a nation they should attempt to attack me if they are even close to the same strength forces.
I feel confident that this war will go very well. We have begun conversion of Catholic Iberia, and we've managed to build the basic infrastructure blitzers require:
Castles, ports, roads, religious buildings, spy buildings.
What else could you possibly need?
