    Basically, war has started with the byzantines and cumans. Mikan died taking belgrade from the byzies, and the cumans were beaten back in the east. Constantinople is still under siege though and a couple large armies of byzie troops have been spotted.

    Can you wait until 10pm European time or so? HouseStark has obliged to provide his character and troops in order for me to push back the main ERE stack. After that I'll rush down with only my cav and lift the siege on Constantinople.

    I'm on it right now, just doing my finances before I start the battle. I was disappointed to find a THIRD ERE stack just across from the channel Are spies allowed to open things?

    GOD DAMN IT! Just as I was winning the battle I got a "wait for program to respont"

    We won the battle. I have screenshots, but an IC writeup will come later. I had preserved 90% of my HA units until the very end of the game, when the enemy general charged at them. I counter charged from all sides with my genreal and all my Hungarian Nobles and Magyar Cav. He slaughtered 5 units by himself. Stupid overpowered AI bonuses

    Thanks for keeping me alive, Myth. lol

    The reason I used Rapidshare instead of the file uploader here is that I don't have correct permissions or something and it won't let me use it.

    There's not even an option to upload, just the list of files available to download.

    Same for me most often unless i compress it into a .rar but thats prolly due to horribly slow connection. Shows and orange exclamation mark with some code as info

    And thank you for keeping my city and people alive noble ally! And to you rest for letting him do it, others fighting your battles should be allowed but avoided at all costs imho.

    Well played myth! may i ask how you killed the BG? Usually they're extremely resistant to arrow fire, amazed you brought them down with so little losses

    I killed everything but as I said the Genreal just massacred 5 units of HAs of mine. HouseStark's own BG was safe since it too had the AI bonus of +lol to defense. The battle ended abruptly as everyone fled, but fortunately the BG was offered for ransom. I executed them, figuring that 2500 gold might get me 3 Hungarian Nobles but if that stack was allowed to live it'd be a lot harder to push back the ERE.
