    Hmmm. I don't think we ever formally voted on it, but there was some agreement in the parliament awhile back about the Chancellor taking over the duties of Consul if the Consul was "sick" or otherwise unavailable. If it comes down to it, would it be possible for the Chancellor, or someone he designates, to fight the battle? If so, should we make the cavalry from the Consul's bodyguard available to the commander for the duration of the battle? (This could prove to be a stumbling block if the Consul were killed during the battle).

    I'm just trying to think of reasonable ways to avoid an autocalc.

    I say we wait until the end of this weekend. If we are to take a unit of high valor RKs or even worse, a unit of RKs with a 4-star "Skilled Attacker" commander, then we might be better off leaving all RKs in and autocalculating, as far as a favorable outcome is concerned. Let's give Warmaster Horus a little more time.

    I'll go with waiting through the weekend, but no longer. However crucial this battle may be, we really need to get this campaign going faster than the glacial pace at which it's currently moving.

    IT'S DONE!!! I'm finished with it. So sorry it took so long . I sent the file to Khavan this morning, but I'll give a quick report on what happened:
    -we won the battle, of course, and captured 208 German men. They were ransomed for a total sum of 332 Florins.
    -The expedition to assist Venice had to be stopped. Firstly because of overwhelming opposition (120 against 851) and secondly because Venice didn't even try to save themselves. We would have been alone.
    -The court also recieved information that New Armenia existed no more. Their King had been killed, and no heir was found.

    Now, I promise you all that such a long wait will not happen anymore.

    Brilliant!

    When can we expect our first write-up in the battle reports thread?

    Nice work, WH.

    Kavhan, when we were forming the outline for this game, you suggested a house rule requiring "retainers" for any heavy cavalry built. Would you find it acceptable to train royal knights without retainers for the express purpose of sending them to wherever our princes are to serve as replacements in the royal bodyguard? Do any of our provinces even have the capability to produce royal knights?
