Battle was fun, thanks for letting me fight it.

Thanks to both Ignoramus and GH for getting the battle done quickly. Taking the save.

From an OOC perspective, I thought we only let proxies fight if players will be absent for a very long period of time rather than not being able to fight it within the usual deadline (in which case it should be autoresolved)?

The idea of a PvP assault on Bern got me excited, so I have come up with a map. We will use the Swiss Alps custom battle map with a huge city. This is my representation of that city:

Oh God this is gonna be fun.

Do the numbered points (S1, N5, etc) correspond to potential docking points or towers?

**econ21** · 11-08-2007, 01:05

The numbered points are the towers (N1 = first north tower). NG is north gate etc. Brown tracks are the roads. The blue splondge is a mini-lake. Thick blue lines mark where the attacker can set up behind. Basically, I took the mini-map and blew it up to get the dimensions of the walls, then annotated those features.

That is an appropriate choice for a map, econ21. It is the exact same one I had GH fight his custom battle on to gain control of Bern.

I'm tempted to choose Option C just for the sake of a funny story.

In seriousness, with this 1328 turn, King of the Romans has now equalled Will of the Senate in the number of turns (124), counting WotS's four Civil War turns. It's also interesting that in Turn #124 for both PBMs a major PvP battle is taking place.
