Having a border agreement with RP 1$
Having an argument with GS 5$
Having a trusted allie priceless.....

Besides up to now our alies never were paied and they still are allies. Maybe the mistake of RP was to think you can pay allies. You have to win them by handle them with fairness, that's how it works

5/6 Riders........not much, we have Leos. Anyway on defense they had better odds than on offense against Pamploma

4 catapults for bait........ Free, RP donated

Watching RP waste pikes that could really have done damage on defense, on offense..........Priceless

Watching RP have a "oh Sh#t" moment since they now reallize that they have weakened their forces more than the 8 Riders could have on offense..............Priceless

Watching RP now delay as they try to decide whether they should gift the rest of their cities for enough troops to defend pamploma or just raze pamploma..............
BEYOND PRICELESS

I'm not sure the Pikes would have really been that useful being on the mountain north of Alamo when you attack. They usually defend alot better from inside the city.

Although now there's a pikeman blocking the route to the city.

GoW not knowing what's going on...... Priceless

Aggie · October 21, 2003, 13:21

That true OPD, but unless rp had a super rng, they had to use pike from Pamploma. No matter what they also had to use Knights from pamploma. Do the math.
Knights 4 vs rider on forest 3.75 is better than
Rider 4 vs Knight in capital city fortified 6.75.

I do salute their bravery, since it takes nerve to send
Pike1 againt Riders 3.75, even if the rides are reduced.(This is where my multiplayer inexperience shows)

But since a war of attritution helps us far more than RP, still the results are to me........Priceless

Backlash.

BigFree · October 21, 2003, 16:09

Hmmm....a 40 shield MI against a 70 Shield Rider....

To put the icing on the cake...a 30 shield 4/4 Pike has better than a 60% chance at defeating a 1/5 Rider...plus he moves closer to Pamplona

Thats all the clues you get for now you filthy warmonger's.

Aggie must have no idea just how many catapults and medieval infantry have been sitting in Pamplona gathering dust since the start of the war waiting for some action.... they finally got some.

When faced with 2 1-hp elite riders remaining, it just seemed appropriate to deliver the coup de grace with a few regular pikemen from the mountain rather than wounding any knights from Pamplona.

You tell me how accurate this is. I estimated 5pike and 5 offensive units in Pamploma, after last turn. I hope that thes 5 are mi, but suspect at least 2 and maybe all 5 are knights(I know there were some horse and you have the ability to upgrade). I know also that you had quite a few catapults(seen during the nd counterattack) and those are still in pamploma. Was I right?.

Anyway this gives 9 offensive units to attack our 8 riders there. At least that was my thinking. I really wasn't expect pike to attack too, but that is just gravy, if some of them weaken.

All the same, I applaud RP's effort.

Well done, Spanish nobles and Pikemen alike!!

I do know our numbers, I'm assuming that with retreat ability that 2/3 escaped to safety. Of course its always possible that you got yourselves down to 1hp and they didn't retreat, but over so many battles there had to have been several where you had little damage and the units retreated. Of course it is possible that even then they didn't retreat at all(or retreated from the mountain force(toward the east). If ya'll got that lucky I can only tip my hat to you and get you to pick some lottery numbers for me.

.

Of course this could also mean you have quite a few 1/4 units left. I smell GL tries. Its also possible I underestimated your forces.

Or maybe one of our Elite defenders generated a GL and they had to kill it with what they had available........

Do I have to repeat my above post?

Darekill · October 23, 2003, 01:30

Why don't we just wait and take a look at the actual save. Then we will see what happened and what not happened.
This discussion is just.....

Ah well, soon enough we will find out.

Guesswork.

Ah yes. The famous quest. Your troops have been playing "Where's WIA?" for so long they have forgotten what to do with me when they find me.

So much for the mighty army so dominating the Spanish countryside. Your lumbering oxen of soldiers couldn't find the venomous looking boils on their wart-encrusted hands, let alone a well-known Spaniard.

I am laughing as your forces bumble into each other - why, all those Catapults were lost to you due to the Gimps of War forgetting to securely anchor their wheels when firing from the hills of La Sierra Mas Grande. All Spain learned to ridicule this so-called dark army as Catapults, along with their dunce bombardiers, crashed into the Walls of Pamplona, almost gift-wrapped for us.

Oh Spain feared this army once, of that be certain. But as the initial assault receded, God-fearing Christians everywhere realised that you were all bluster - where are your high-profile prisoners? Well you may have had some, but your soldiers are so blinded with idiocy and your commanders so crippled with incompetence that a child could have evaded the Glory of Witlessness.

'Tis now only a matter of time until your ranks are fooled into fighting each other, and your blight shall be exterminated for good. My advice to you: leave now, whilst you still have your own hubris, for none others have but contempt for you. And mind you don't trip and fall on your lances as you stumble over that rather obvious stone.

BigFree · October 23, 2003, 08:18

I want to meet this "Ms Grande". On second thought, remembering your civilizations love of female facial hair, maybe not.
