A very tense game. Decision was done only on last turns. Lydian take a defensive stance till the counter attack in last turns. A fort Alamo hill hold on under heavy assault and save the day for Lydians. Merci pour la partie Alain.

5. kronenblatt attacks Ninive (9) from Nihiriani (43), using Urartian army with Mannaean allies. tyronec as Assyrian opponent.

Assyrians win 40-7.
Makes them the hot army of the season, woe betide he who attacks the wolf on the fold !
And they are pretty mean in the valleys too.

...Now then, this particular Assyrian, the one whose cohorts were gleaming in purple and gold,
Just what does the poet mean when he says he came down like a wolf on the fold?
In heaven and earth more than is dreamed of in our philosophy there are great many things.
But I don't imagine that among them there is a wolf with purple and gold cohorts or purple and gold anythings.
No, no, Lord Byron, before I'll believe that this Assyrian was actually like a wolf I must have some kind of proof;
Did he run on all fours and did he have a hairy tail and a big red mouth and big white teeth and did he say Woof Woof?...

Please note

• Attack declarations are posted in the campaign thread.

• You declare one attack every round, upon a province controlled by either a major faction or another player.

• Please express attack declarations as follows:
  • kronenblatt attacks Ninive (9) from Nihiriani (43), using an Urartian army with Mannaean allies.

• Date (midnight CET+3 (Jerusalem) time) above indicates deadline, after which opportunity for you to declare attack is forfeited and the player next in line may declare his attack.

• Once you have declared an attack, please PM the player next in line, who will then be free to declare his attack, up to his deadline, so we all don't need to wait for each player's deadline.

• Rules are found HERE.

Attack declarations

• A player is every round required to declare one attack upon a province controlled by a major faction or another player.

• The attack involves the player (the "attacker") making an attack from one of his controlled provinces ("attacker's province") upon a connected province ("defender's province") controlled by either a major faction or another player (the "defender").

• These two provinces (attacker's province and defender's province) are considered "provinces-at-stake" for that attack.

• A province already being a province-at-stake, i.e., already included as a province-at-stake in any other attack made by another player this round (whether as attacker's province or defender's province), is not allowed to be attacked from or attacked upon.

Armies and allies when declaring attacks

• Main army: The player uses one of his two minor factions as the main army.

• Allies: The other one of his two minor factions is always used as allies in his battles (unless a major faction is an eligible ally: applicable for tyronec and Egyptians).
