Taking save

**_Tristan_** · 11-22-2009, 17:20

Louis, you have another battle coming your way. A relief force has come behind you trying to break the siege of Cordoba. You're outnumbered 1:2.

**Ramses II CP** · 11-23-2009, 22:06

This will be done this evening after I get the piglet in bed, about 4 hours from now. I didn't see that stack coming, but I did kinda hope Cordoba would sally.

Save is back:

Summary is they ran away. A lot. Their strategy was to choke the bridge with surrendering infantry so that their crossbowmen would have time to inflict some casualties. I guess it 'worked' in some sense. I didn't get to decide what to do with the prisoners or Cordoba.

Save will be posted later tonight when I get home... Forgot to put it on my USB key to post it from work.

Btw, I worked from MA's save and redid the moves done by Braden, EF and Ibn to the best of my abilities (slight discrepancies may appear from the differing battle results from Shlin's save).

There seems to be several slight bugs with the save : as reported by Ibn, all family members have King Francis bodyguards... All other generals have regular ones...

Another more troublesome is the End Report where our tribute expenses are listed in the 100K+ florins... Wth ? I surely spent quite a lot this turn in diplomacy (about 15000, IIRC) but I could never have spent 100K fl...

Our treasury still is about what it should be... So it may only be a display bug...

Anyway, I made a simplified report for this turn as I made a lengthy post in the Conseil.

Diplomacy was rather rewarding as we managed to obtain alliances with the Pope, Russia and Scotland for 1000, 3000 and Edinburgh respectively... (I finally managed to understand how diplomacy work in M2TW...)

I've tried to gain military access from Spain but didn't succeed...

Our relationships with most of these contries are at least Outstanding, if not Perfect (see Scotland...)

A ceasefire has been obtained with the HRE at the cost of Granada and 10K florins and the war wth England has been brought to an end, bringing us 20500 florins and trade rights... Our relations with these two countries remain tense.

Our bishop is on his way to become the next Pope being the first of the Preferati.

Almost no recruitment, retraining or building has been done this turn as priority was given to diplomacy... Had I known that England will provide us 20K+ florins I would have gone in debt to build up our forces.

Cordoba has been sacked (hope Ramses do not mind, as it would have tied up the save even more had I submitted it to his decision...) for 4349 florins.

The castle at Angers is ready to be upgraded.

Our mission to blockade Arhus ends at the end of this season. Our blockading fleet is threatened by a large Danish fleet that just appeared.

[EDIT] Save is here for your viewing... Please do not take it as it is frozen until the next Senechal gives the go on it.
