Am I the purple guy on the map then?

with my 6, wouldnt I jump up to the second row as I landed on a fortune square and then go along three or have I misunderstood it?

edit : ignore this, I get it. we count square one also.

Correct...purple. No Sean. Start square is 1. Six is one before "Outmaneuver enemy"

Gavin I will give the Ikko - Ikki 1575-82 a run for a bit of fun.

It's settled then ... Mark Uesugi 1559-1571 AD vs Brian Ikko - Ikki 1575-82 small, agricultural. Mark to set up (will have to switch off default for different time periods). Good luck gentlemen, may the righteous cause prevail. We're all looking forward to the inevitable boasting and twisted facts.

Uesugi 1559-1571 vs Ikki 1575-82

Open Battle
Force size small
Map size medium
Terrain type agricultural

Game set, password: Juzu.

Are we supposed to stick with one faction throughout the tournament?

No Sean, you can choose any list from the Sengoku Jidai campaign

We are up to (approx) move 8. My Flank march arrived a couple of moves ago, 25% of them are still wandering around lost in the bush.
Not a shot fired as yet and very few Uesugi troops seen. It appears that my flank is being turned.

A lot of jungle terrain more appropriate for the Kokoda trail and an enemy content to sit in camp drinking tea, no doubt confident in the incredible number of superior troops he has, means no contact as yet.



The observant among you will note the extraordinary number of banners, it seems Ikko-Ikki will be a popular choice going forward.

Sounds rather ikki Mark

...You may be comforted to know they're mostly peasants and fanatical monks with high opinions of themselves...they dislike cavalry and real samurai. Oh, and lots of ashiguru helps even up the numbers

Thanks for your support man, also thanks for making my clean up more difficult!

Night fell with no result.

The Ikko-Ikki had a Flank March arrive; as it advanced through the woods it stumbled across the Uesugi Honjin and blasted it to pieces killing the C-n-C.
A short time later a Uesugi Sub General was lost in Melee with Ikko-Ikki Warriors.

Uesugi Army lost their C-n-C and a Sub General.

Ikko-Ikki 21% Uesugi 17%

When one has to embark on a long, long, long journey good friends must inevitably be left behind.

A draw means neither adversary advances along the green bricked road before the next dice round. All and sundry may throw for the next round.

I threw a wasted five, as I have to stop on skirmish. As everyone has moved on I get to move on without a fight on the subsequent round.

Gavin 3+5+5=13 (stop skirmish battle)
Mark 5+6 (stop- skirmish battle) +1 = 12
Brian 6+4 (stop- skirmish battle) +5 = 15
Alan 1+6+5 = 12
Fabian 2+4 (stop - waiting for encounter battle)
Sean 6+3 (stop skirmish battle)

Hopefully, I calculated this correctly...

I'll use Takeda 1576-1582 force small, narrow, agricultural

So who plays who and what are the army sizes please Gavin.
