    It's usually handy in these games to send all diplomats to the same place. In the bigger games it tends to be Baghdad or Rome. There's no obligation though.

    The autoresolve gods have failed me at the battle of random castle outside of Wick. Is this the end of Norway? Well, not this turn, but maybe soon.

    England.

    Hardly unless the King and his boatloads of troops have arrived already. I'll be able to play my save later on today.

    Too far away (in turns) and way too few troops. This war will be won or lost before then.

    England's up!

    RE: Rules dispute. Just noticed. Let's hold onto the save for a sec. I'll check with Myth on Gloucester.

    As i said in the PM, I'm fine with it if I am allowed the same advantage. If not, then i'd like to rewind because I left that one stack of units there on purpose to slow the attacking army. Right now he can just continue on to Oxford or wherever while otherwise he'd be sitting there for one more turn, building rams.

    I'm happy with that solution. If Myth prefers we replay, then I'm happy to do that too, although it might be a bit unfair, seeing as I would know not to do some moves which I did originally.

    I only just discovered the rule about catapults not being allowed to attack stone walls. That means I broke the rules when I assaulted Gloucester with catapults. Should replay the save or what?

    No, Gloucester is English. I think we should wind it back and replay. It's Zim's call as admin though...and luckily it's his turn.
