you just want a shot at payback.

Ok. Bring it :twisted:

Guess me invading Gauls is off the table. I choose Agricultural.

Nik is 3rd on the table so its his move I assume?

Good to see you to be so eager, compliment for that. It's fine with me, as this campaign is just the framework to set 8 guys fight each other in 4 different custom battles each year. It takes extra time to sort out who fights who. Compared to the time a custom battle takes ( 14 days I estimate ) gives the campaign something a round robin sytem does not have. Your faction for example could have also a civil war, in that case the 1st Roman/Gallic war has to wait for future years.

You can start a civil war with an already chosen faction except Pontic, or play as Thrace or Illyria.
Syracuse does not match Geographical with the other factions, it was a suggestion from another player.

MikeC has just started a match with me as Macedon v Greece......Is that also an ineligible match which needs to wait for another year?

Not a problem if so....we are all keen !

I can wait to fight Rome if that is easier re the tournament.

MikeC_81 picked Rome, Nikiforosfokas picked Macedon, devoncop picked Greek.
So it should be the 1st Greek/Roman war against MikeC_81.
Or it is the 1st Greek/Macedonian war against Nikiforosfokas.
We are from all over the world, so not all online at the same moment.
It's Saturday here so I expect that all is sorted out in a few days.

1 Greek 280 devoncop 7 Provinces
2 Roman 280 MikeC_81 7 Provinces
3 Macedonian 320 NikiforosFokas 7 Provinces
4 Gallic 300 Klayeckles 7 Provinces
5 Seleucid 300 Aryaman 7 Provinces
6 Thracian 350 schmolywar 9 Provinces
7 North Pontic 281 Trogilus 4,5 Provinces
8 South Pontic 281 Wolf blitzee 4,5 Provinces
9 Illyrian 350 Hendricus 3 Provinces

1st Pontic civil war initiated,
1st Greek/Roman war started
Macedonia can start the next war, that also starts the war between the last 2 players.

Illyria can also be attacked 3 times ( only 3 Provinces ) The Pontic generals having only 4,5 Provinces and Greek can do that, if they don't Rome is next in line and so down the armylist.

Wolf Blitzee

I cannot fight you yet as you have a Civil War with the other Pontic General (Trogilus) first.

As such I am fighting Rome.

Cheers

Yes, so we get
1st Macedonian/Thracian war
1st Gallic/Seleucid war
I hope that those first wars are concluded before 9 december. If the fight is not concluded at that date. Inform us what turn the battle is at that moment.
Have fun at the battlefields guys.

so a bit confused here,
MIke, the romans and the gauls did start battle...i suggest we might just continue on with it...as it will give us more time to finish. everyone cool with that then? if not, we hardly started so no big deal.

the gauls are slated to fight the seleucids...so i'm good to start that one too...Aryaman, how about you set it up....i'll choose mountains, so it is up to you to make it mnts , or hills. let me know when its up and the PW.

Let me jump in here. We have in the 1st year of our Rise of .... campaign.
1st Pontic civil war between North and South Pontic
1st Greek/Roman war
1st Macedonian/Thracian war
1st Gallic/Seleucid war

Illyria can be attacked by 3 player generals, I command their armies, I wish mountains as terrain.
The Pontic Generals and Greece have priority in starting such a minor war besides their war mentioned above.
If they decide to pass the next faction can step in to start an extra war this year. In the following order.

1 N Pontic
2 S Pontic
3 Greek
4 Roman
5 Macedon
6 Gallic
7 Seleucid
8 Thrace
9 (Illyria) minor

Hi Hendricus.

Greece has never shied from a challenge... :-)

Greece sends her Second Army into Illyria.

We would nominate an agricultural map so I believe we end up with a compromise of (hopefully not too many!) hills.

I will create the map (Large/Wide/Med Hilly) if you like.

PW... retsina

Ok time out. Can we solidify the campaign rules please? I don't want to do this helter skelter.
