Guillame can u confirm this.

Well what was your intention??, several posts up you indicate you were attemtping to move ie attack into my capitol where an army awaits(pergamum)....
maybe the confusion is that I am playing 2 nations ???

Anyways, please figure out w Billgber if you are invading Pergamum or not!

Ok Gary i think i know what the problem might be.... The original game file Billgber emailed all of us didnt have Pergamums play pieces and or armies on it.... maybe you declared war and assumed you were sending your army into a vacant area? billgber did send a corrected game file out a couple days after words...

Either way, maybe check up w Billgber and decide if you still want to invade pergamum or not, our army patiently awaits!

From the other section on the campaign:

"consequences of movement phase:
3 battles
Bosporan entering Pontic inactive faction; so one player will be choose to rule pontic army
Gallic H have made an aggresive move into Celte L capital province, there will be possible 2 battles here.
in the desert Ptolemaic will fight Carthagian"

...now Mac did declare war on Perg..maybe that's what had us thinking that....so it seems no battle between you two

So the Macs only declare war when they think their enemies have no armies hmm?

I'm good either way, let me know Macedon!

Uh I guess that means i should issue a challenge to Celtic lowlands and Mac's should issue a challenge to Permamum?

also, Billgber, could you tell us what terrain we need to pick? I cant really tell what terrain type corresponds to the map (does it matter the capitol is there?)

also dont you need to tell us what happens w bad augere and good strategoi?? Thse apparently effect the terrian on the battle.....

1)Capital have no impact.
...

The capital graphic doesn't seem to indicate an obvious underlying terrain type for the hex. Does this mean that each player is free to choose any type they want, that they should automatically use mixed, or that you would rule for each battle based on the terrain types in the surrounding hexes?

My suggestion would be to assume that the terrain around the capital should generally be consdiered as mixed on the assumption that it represents a relatively settled area so that human changes to the terrain will most likely result in what is best represented as mixed terrain even if the surrounding are would be dessert or mountain or something in between. In my case, for example, the Pontic capital seems to be in an area bordered by a mixed hex to the west and mountain (very closed) hex or hexes to the east. Mixed would certainly seem to make sense in this case. (Not that I'm biased with a Bosporan army . )

Chris

I think anyone brave enough to attack the Bosporan capital should get a free terrain choice.

How about if we recruit a mob of laid off lumberjacks and builders allowing us to vary any battlefield to our satisfaction.?

hey Chris, if you open the map file in the editor , the map is made of 3 layers, perhaps the underlaying terrian of capitols can be determined that way (at work so cant check it out now)

that's Stratagema

I would love to attack an unoccupied country!!

However my move was intended to put that army in the Perg Capitol. I still do not understand why they stopped short!
I believed each hex was worth 2mp.

Guillame? can you clarify why the army did not enter the capitol hex.

Cheers
