A PbP Strategy Game for Erfworld

[GeeFresh]

GeeFreshLand recalls their High Commissioner & embassy staff from Ounce in protest.

But, being men of Issachar, who understood the times and knew what Gee FreshLand should do,
they have switched sides, pledging loyalty to 28.35 grams.

Splitters!

[Crovius]

Isn't H2 mine? I only have calvalry and infantry. No fliers. Also, you get no bonus from your fliers anyway thanks to my Cover-A-Mancy. So yeah, you might want to redo it, cause you are 7 points less and I have an extra 5 points.

well then someone else is going to have to deal with the combat, because I can no longer access my computer due to viral infections.

Right now I am using a school computer.

[GeeFresh]

no combat. too hard to work out where LT is. And whether I might win.
probably not.

[LTDave]

Due to Crovius' Cover-A-Mancy, the Flyers in the attach on H2 don't count.

Here's my calculation of how that battle went:

COMBAT!
Battle is joined in hex: H2
TIME OF POST (in U seconds): 1750
Attacker: 0 Fliers
0 Cavalry
15 Infantry
0 Siege
Total Combat Factors: 15
Random Number: 10
Tactical Bonus Result: 1
Total Combat: 26
Combat Result: LOSER
Hits Inflicted: 5

Defender: 0 Fliers
3 Cavalry
3 Infantry
0 Siege
4 Defence Factor (City Level less Siege - minimum of 1)
Total Combat Factors: 24
Random Number: 2
Tactical Bonus Result: 2
Total Combat: 28
Combat Result: VICTOR
Hits Inflicted: 16


So Daemonwelsh came pretty close to winning it, but Crovius' cavalry added their +2 bonus, and tipped it to their favour.

It's really dangerous to attack a high level city without siege, especially if the opponent has Cover-A-Mancy.

[turbler]

Heya Dave. Couldya maybe... get a new map? tw'ould be very much appreciated. til then, I'll try to take my long overdue turn :S

[Crovius]

K, I have 1 calvalry left in that city but we wiped out all of the attacking infantry, the fliers are just kind sitting outside the city limits having watched the infantry be wiped out.

Yay!

[Daemonwelsh]

K, I have 1 calvalry left in that city but we wiped out all of the attacking infantry, the fliers are just kind sitting outside the city limits having watched the infantry be wiped out.

Yay!

well... It doesn't say the fliers can't enter your city, just that they can't partake in combat.
I guess they are sitting in your hex doing absolutely nothing.

[LTDave]

Daemonwelsh - your flyers can not fight, but can be taken as casualties, and must retreat with the rest of the forces.

You need to indicate which units you have taken as casualties.




This is the map for turn 6 after Gee Fresh's turn.

[Daemonwelsh]

then I will pick it so that I have 3 infantry alive in hex... g3. (that is where they came from I believe.)

Upgrade Costs: None (No new cities, no city can be upgraded)

Cities
I1 "Requiem" Level 5
H2 "Forsaken" Level 4
I2 "Awakening" Level 4
H3 "Lost" Level 4

Units
Pop 1 Calvalry in every city (I1, I2, H2, H3)

Before Movement
I1 0 Flyers, 3 Cavalry, 3 Infantry, 0 Siege.
I2 0 Flyers, 3 Cavalry, 3 Infantry, 0 Siege.
H2 0 Flyers, 2 Cavalry, 0 Infantry, 0 Siege.
H3 0 Flyers, 4 Cavalry, 1 Infantry, 0 Siege.

Upkeep: -82
Ending Schmuckers: 401

Movement:

After Movement
I1 0 Flyers, 3 Cavalry, 2 Infantry, 0 Siege.
I2 0 Flyers, 3 Cavalry, 2 Infantry, 0 Siege.
H2 0 Flyers, 3 Cavalry, 2 Infantry, 0 Siege.
H3 0 Flyers, 3 Cavalry, 1 Infantry, 0 Siege.

Development:
Thick Blood average rating was 3, so it will take 9 A-mancy points to develop.
Spend 4 A-Mancy points on development
Progress:9/9
And now whenever my Infantry take casualties, I'll always lose 50% of them, regardless of how many casualties they actually take, so if they take 1 casualty but their's 20 of them, I lose 10, but on the flipside if I have 20 and take 19 casualties, I still lose only 10.

Spend 1 A-mancy Point to Propose Rage!
Name: Rage!
Effect: When Calvalry take casualties, if not completely destroyed they can automatically inflict casualties to the enemy equal to the remaining calvalry. If all Calvalry are destroyed or there is no enemies left this effect does nothing. Casualties inflicted from rage occur after combat and are not included in the casualties caused during the fight.
Fluff: The werewolves of WoD are terrifying beasts, and killing their kin enrages them to feats of terrifying power. Even a lone werewolf can take down an extra enemy while in the rage induced from seeing his brethren fall. The only sure way to prevent this is to destroy all of them.

Ratings:
Studied Insult: 1

Already Developed:
Cover-A-Mancy - All Cities Lv 3 and higher count as forest, so fliers add no bonus to combat for either side.
Provisions - Units that don't move cost only 90% of their upkeep

Proposal: Alpha strike
Mechanic's: at the cost of 25 shmuckers per unit(regardless of movement or not) all units under a player's control are moved to a hex of the person who developed this a-mancy. If enemy units are in the targeted hex, then combat is initiated. If not, then movement for the turn continues as normal.
Fluff: with the understanding of the magic kingdom's teleportation technology, the tribbles developed a way to transport all units under their control to a single hex at a tremendous cost. utilizing this technology they began assaulting key hex's, even though that left all of their cities vulnerable to attack.

I put in a limiting factor...
It costs a helluva lot of smuckers, and bankrupts a side before upkeep is paid.
and it leaves the sides cities undefended
