Calling Tom (76mm). The Celtiberians are wondering where their general has got to. Perhaps he is scared?

Carthage defeats the Greeks in Sparta, 22 to 50. Both sides were stronger on their right, but the Carthaginians scored a few early successes and were able to turn and envelope the center faster.

The plucky Spaniards defeated the Macedonians 28-55. The Spaniards refused their right flank and were able to use some favorable hilly terrain to their advantage and crushed the Macedonian right wing before their left wing could be brought to bear.

the seleucid invasion of the arab lands, led my the evil general Mac, was soundly beaten back...before the seleucid invaders could get set up the defenders took the high ground and commenced to send a deluge of arrows down upon the westerners. the irregular arab troops, attacking from high ground mopped up the broken up lines of pike, now bristling with arrows.

arab minor power wins in defending its home.

All the games are finished, but we have yet to determine natural disasters for 269 B.C. Natural Disasters and Other Uncontrollable Events as declared by Zeus, ruler of the Olympians, are determined as follows. Once a year, there will be a chance of incurring a natural disaster or having a restless populace. Each Major Power is assigned an Italian city lottery, as follows:

1. Epirus – Firenze
2. Rome – Roma
3. Macedon – Milano
4. Gauls – Napoli
5. Carthage – Palermo
6. Seleucids – Genova
7. Ptolemaic – Torino
8. Antigonus – Venezia

Each lottery has five balls. The numbers on each ball will determine a result, a calamity or no harm.

1-20 - No harm
21-30 - Famine – costing 200T
31-40 - Earthquake – costing 100T
41-45 - Volcano Eruption – costing 100T
46-50 - Restless underclass – costing 100T
51-60 - Pirates or bandits disrupting trade – costing 100T
Over 60 - No harm
There could be multiple events causing harm each year. If there are 2 or more natural events of the same type, only the power with the highest number in the category will be inflicted. Restless underclass will count in each case.

We will use the Lotto from Saturday, 16 March to determine the result for this year, 269 B.C.

Once these are determined, I will update treasury based on results during 269 B.C. and we will move on to another year.

Mac

The natural events draw, covering 269 B.C., from Saturday, 16 March is as follows:

1. Epirus – Firenze - 21,26,30,71,85 - famine 200T
2. Rome – Roma - 4,10,26,56,79 - no harm
3. Macedon – Milano - 12,27,38,60,77 - pirates 100T
4. Gauls – Napoli - 3,16,33,70,87 - no harm
5. Carthage – Palermo - 18,31,40,79,90 - earthquake 100T
6. Seleucids – Genova - 18,21,54,71,83 - no harm
7. Ptolemaic – Torino - 12,31,57,62,86 - no harm
8. Antigonus – Venezia - 12,18,46,50,66 - restless underclass 100T

Next I will tally results for the year.

Weakened Minor Powers: Celtiberia

Correction:

"7. Ptolemaic (Richard) - 27,000T. Ptolemy's client state Pontus invaded Armenia winning a decisive victory 12 to 47. It cost 500T to mobilize. Armemia is now a client state providing 100T in income. regular Income was 500T. Income from client states Nabatea and Pontus totaled 200T. Bithynia is now a province providing 300T. Ending treasury was 27,600T"

Bithynia is not yet a province - still a client state until the end of 268 B.C. Ptolemy's ending treasury is 26,400T.

Hopefully you have succeeded in getting 1.5.12 up and running and we can proceed?

After quite a bit of thought, I have decided to end the campaign. I want to spend my available time learning and playing the new Field of Glory Empires, as it seems to be capable of doing much more than I can with the current campaign.

I hereby proclaim The Ptolemaic Empire (Richard) the victor, followed closely by Carthage (Nijiis) and Macedon (Ian).

Thanks very much to all the participants!

Thanks very much for running the campaign, it has been great fun.

But why am I the victor? Carthage has a higher score than me.

Ptolemaic Ending Treasury 27,600T. Carthage Ending Treasury 27,550T. Ptolemaic Empire is the victor by 50T.

Thanks again for participating.

Ah sorry, I looked at the beginning of the sentences in the list above, instead of the end.

Thanks for running the campaign! And I like to think that my strategy, coming on board a rising star, coasting on my predecessors' accomplishments, not reinvesting anything, and claiming credit for a solid list of assets is worthy of such a great commercial power.

3rd??? I demand a recount! Rus interference!

Cheers for running the campaign Mac. Maybe we can continue in FOG:Empires at a later date...
