An Empire in Flames - Tournament I: Concluded

[MadMaxBot]

Raid:
Goths will raid into Madmaxbot XV Dalmatia

Yes, there seem to be two problems here.

1. Goths are not allowed to attack this round since they lost a raid attack last round.
2. They can only raid into a province connected to their homelands or to a province looted by them in a land raid (highlighted by lighter color and their square symbol). Dalmatia is not connected to any such province.

So please make another raid attack.

Wouldn't the Goths be able to raid from XI into XV?

Oh he stated Dalmatia but must have meant Moesia Superior as that is province XV

Forgot that 1st rule. Amended the raid!

[kronenblatt]

Conquest:

Aetius39 attacks TomoeGozen in XXVII Hispania

Regain the lands you took by treachery!

Raid:

Iazyges will raid into Madmaxbot IX Noricum

They just want to run amok.

Thanks, much better!

EDIT: May want to add that your Conquest attack is made out of II Lugdunensis. (Only option but still.)

Raid: Alamans raid Aetius39's province of Germania Superior V from Agri Decumates VI

Raid: Alamans raid Aetius39's province of Germania Superior V from Agri Decumates VI

Unfortunately not possible since "A non-Roman faction can make several raids (then through attacks declarations of different players) in the same round, but only once per round against a specific Roman faction as defender.

The option that seems to be left is to raid with the Franks.

Sorry! It was late at night when I was writing this

In that case Franks will raid Aetius39's Germania Inferior IV

Please note the following

• Battles are resolved simultaneously during a three-week period of Apr. 21 - May. 12.

• The defender creates the challenge, also deciding the map terrain for the province in question.

• All battles are 24 turns, 40 x 32 and use Remove the Head (i.e., the battle will end also when one side’s C-in-C falls in battle with that side becoming the loser).

• No map re-rolls are allowed.

• Make sure you have An Empire in Flames v3 module downloaded and installed (manual download as advised in PM).

• When setting up the challenge in-game, in Multiplayer Lobby under My Challenges, through pressing New Challenge and then Create Skirmish, choose Select Another Module, mark An Empire in Flames v3 and click LAUNCH. The factions can now be chosen for the battle when creating the challenge.

• The defender reports the battle result once concluded: who's victor and loser (if any), always specifying the incurred casualties and whether any faction's C-in-C fell in battle.

Enjoy! Any questions? Please post them here.

Yes!^^

[Aetius39]

Aetius (Romans 1) defeats TomoeGozen (Romans V) 60-21

The artillery of the true Roman army managed to disrupt/frag the Roman V army's cataphracts before the lines hit; this helped units gang up and break a few before they could get things in order. It was still a slog to get through it; they put up a good fight! GG!

3A. Olin0111 defeats TomoeGozen in Mesopotamia 48-16

Palmyrans in retreat! Roman order has been restored in Edessa!
