All right, I pressed end turn. I will write a report on 1314 tomorrow. This is the savegame which everyone is encouraged to inspect (don't toggle fow or press end turn though):

I have not adjusted for desertion and possible order penalties yet.

Players have 36 hours to liase and submit their orders to me via PM.

The "no brainer" battles that can be fought now are:

Fritz (Tamur):
Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 
You have besieged Stettin using its expelled garrison and your cavalry. Now bring up the Saxon Household Army and the Hamburg garrison to crush them in a show of force.



Ansehelm (Stig)
Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 
The Poles are besieging Thorn... again.



Friedrich Karolinger (Warmaster Horus)
Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 
The walls of Thessalonica are still beckon.



In addition, we have a player vs player battle:
Hummel (Ignoramus) vs Von Salza (Warluster)

There are a number of options to resolve this (aside from diplomacy).
(1) multiplayer
(2) a refereed "table top" style battle like we did for WotS (but to save time, I will simplify it to two stages - deployment/battle plan; and mid-battle adjustment)
(3) mirrored battles vs the AI: I will set you each up with a battle vs the AI. You each write a battle report and a savegame. TinCow and I will judge which one of you did better; we will use the savegame of the winner.

If the two parties agree on one of the three methods within 24 hours, I will help them set it up. If no method is agreed, I will find a quick non-interactive way of resolving it - perhaps setting it up so the computer can autoresolve it.
