...I think I got it right this time... I created a city on the same turn I moved the unit into the hex, and kept that unit. I didn't see anything in the rules that said otherwise.

[LTDave]

Sinrus - ok - I'll fix that tomorrow.

Charlie - two problems - you can't build a city unless you have a unit in the hex, and you can't pop units in a new city.

Other than that, looks good.

[Charlie]

Alright, I think I fixed it.

[LTDave]

Ok, so here's the updated map.

Sinrus - is the reason the last map was wrong because you edited your turn orders? Naughty naughty.

Charlie - Build and upgrade is step 2, move units is step 5. You should have a unit in the hex at the beginning of a turn to build a city. We'll let it go this time, but never again!

Spoiler: show

Waiting on turbler...

Sinrus - is the reason the last map was wrong because you edited your turn orders? Naughty naughty.

No, although for future reference would that be allowed if no one else has gone yet?

[Azgrut]

Charlie ended turn and thus night started. Prince Hadriël walked through the capitol, managing the city. There was not much to manage though... No troops were ordered to be popped by his father, king Turbler. He thought hard to fix this absence of action from his king. He was confused about his duty. Was it to serve his royal highness and father? Or was it to save his side? He could not decide what was more urgent. He knew that LTDave in the south was expanding and Charlie to the east would not wait for candy either. The kingdom would surely fall if no orders were given.

Thus his duty prevailed.

Hadriël made a deal with his side's natural allies, the Impars (short called imps). The moment Prince Hadriël ordered all units one hex outside the capital, the Imps launched their attacks and slew king Turbler. Prince Hadriël easily recaptured the capital and issued his orders.

"King Turbler the meek is no more. Now are the days of kind Hadriël. Charlesscom will not defeat us without a fight! LTDave will not easily bring us to our knees. We have a right to live in this world and by my royal blood I shall defend that right! Let all other sides know that I rename the capitol and the other city's. Our colours will become red of the blood of our slain king. And by the Titans, we shall make a difference in this world. Start popping!"

New unique unit: Egyptalon Assassin.
While most of the Egyptalon infantry consists out of ordinary soldiers wielding scimitars and small shields, it are the assassins that truly inflict the hits. These expensive infantry class units have the rare special rule: “Disguise.” A form of natural Foolamancy. It lets them look like a plain infantry and even fools the stat sight of low level warlord units. Other soldiers will also be fooled by its appearance until it is too late and the assassin will have inflicted severe wounds on the unit. Because the disguise ability only works in large stacks of mostly other infantry, no stacks consisting solely out of assassins are assembled.

Too bad I can’t build a city on D3. And Charlie has forgotten 2 infantry in his upkeep. 13 infantry X 3 + 1 char X 10 = 49 not 43.

Gz!

"End the turn!"

New unit: Twonicorn (cavalry)
Twonicorns are among the most majestic of units in the world. The average height for one of these fantastic silver equines is 24 hands, with some growing up to 30 hands. Two swirled golden horns like those of a narwhal rise from its forehead between beautiful brown eyes. They are so enchantingly beautiful that weaker willed units will stop in their tracks and refuse to harm them.

New Unit: Giant Eraser. Fixed to the end of a very long pine tree, the Giant Eraser has the remarkable capacity to eliminate obstacles in its way. Wielded by the fierce 2B and HB Warriors, the Giant Eraser literally "rubs away" at enemy fortifications, reducing them to rubble and those little bits of rubber that end up all over your desk. Respect the stationery.

[Sinrus]

Hey Dave, three map problems.

1, turbler is still marked in purple at the bottom.
2, you still show my forces in G10
3, I renamed Vanguard. If that's allowed, then it's called Presidium now.

[LTDave]

Map issues fixed.

I think it's best that we keep city names the way they are - 1. It can get tedious changing things 2. It can get ridiculous, and 3. It means that even a vanquished player has left a mark on the game. I think it's best that Vanguard remain forever Vanguard.

[Sinrus]

Alright, that's fine by me. I had that in mind, so Presidium is actually latin for guard. Likewise, my other cities translate into Courage, Temple, and Life.

[Crovius]

whos' calvalry is that at f6? I read backa nd no one put a calvalry there? It's not mine, wtf is it doing there? It looks like yours LT, but I don't see it listening. You do have a calvalry listed in f8 but its not on the map, also, calvalry can move only 1 space through woods, so no way it got there in 1 turn without running into someone's units. You really need to go over your units' positions and where you placed them on the map before I post my turn.

Also, quick thing, since a city is upgraded before new units are popped, its the level of the city after the upgrade stage that determines how many units can be made in that city, correct? Also, what's the movement for a character? Is it the same as the units it moves with? If I make a warlord and decide he's gonna travel with some fliers does he automatically have the same move as them?

[Sinrus]

They have flier move, I believe

EDIT: As for the map problem, I believe that he typoed. He said that he moved a cavalry from D5 to F8 via E4 and F5, which is impossible. I guess he meant to say from D5 to F6.

[turbler]

The map is confused... My cities are in D3 and D1... I'll take my turn from there.
1. Income is 100, total Shmuckers in Treasury=161
2. Upgrade my Level 2 to Level 3 (-30 Shmuckers.) and my Level 3 to a level 4 (-40)
3. this character thing, I don't get it :S... I'll figure it out later
I hafta go... the rest will be done tommorow

[LTDave]

My apologies. The Cavalry is in F6, not F8. Typo.

And turbler - no, you won't.

[Sinrus]

You were kinda assassinated by Azgrut.
