    Default Murphy law

    Is it just me, or does this law apply in EB all the time?
    The murphy? law comes to action when for instance, your in a hurry to go somwhere, and everything goes wrong. You forget some stuff, there's huge traffic on the road, even though usually the road is free of it etc....

    Well in EB it seems to me, that winter almost ALWAYS come's in the wrong moment... For instance, i'm marching with a relief army to a town that's besieged, with more then enough moving points, and suddenly the winter comes, and i'm just short for a few milimeters!!! AAA... Also, i have a huge battle to fight, and even thoug on the map it seems i have the control of the hill, I'm the one that starts in a valley, with no way of getting to higher ground...

    It really got me mad sometimes, but now i just think of it as an extra challenge, and i roleplay it as incopitence from my Generals...

    Does anyone alse experience simmilar things?

    Yes, it's the same in my games. But it's like in all Murphys Law Situations ---> When it comes to this Situation you REALLY notice it, and feel, that it's that way all the time. In fact it happenes less often

    Murphy's CTD. Always occurs after two or more consecutive battles in one turn where the AI attacks you (typically all ministacks with no real hope of winning a battle against you).

    If you fight a gigantic battle so well that you lose almost nothing, the game will crash, according to Murphy's Law.

    Sweboz killed Murphy... since then they don't have penality in the winter, and anyway, forest are nicier to fight in than mountain... problem solved : universal laws do not apply to Sweboz! XD
    Opinions are like bacteries : we all have, but it's better to keep them for ourself... (By me!)
