are players allowed to fight losing defensive battles on purpose in this game? That has not been allowed in many previous games, but it is not specified in the rules of this one.

*I hate Scotland's unit roster*.
Edit: Sorry for the mini-rant. Having not played Scotland before, I didn't realise how beefed up Norway was at the start - live and learn.

Does Scotland not have good infantry? Anyway, Zim and Cecil had a war since turn 1 and Zim said he'd have gotten flattened before Haakon even had a chance to arrive.

Their stats are weaker than Norway's, partly because they're mainly pikemen.

Re: Kingdoms Britannia Hotseat: These Sceptred Isles
A major early loss in a battle that could have gone either way was what came close to doing me in. By the time Haakon arrived I'd have a far smaller army than Scotland (counting the reinforcements) and be badly in debt.

Re: Kingdoms Britannia Hotseat: These Sceptred Isles
Yes, as far as debt is concerned Norway, England and Wales all have it pretty bad. Scotland is forced to go into the negatives soon unless it somehow deals with the Norse diplomatically. Ireland has it pretty good in that regard

Re: Kingdoms Britannia Hotseat: These Sceptred Isles
Indeed, it's a frustrating campaign since you're forced to blitz on account of the incoming reinforcements.
