Both Etruscan Armies are in supply.

Etruscan Operation #7: ARMY.
  • Army I SIEGE => 1 => No effect.
  • Army II MOVE NE => 10 => Move successful.
(Why couldn't we get it the other way around?!?)

Does Roman Army II in Vulci stand and fight, or does it retreat?

It is my honour to be appointed Consul for the day

Die roll for terrain is 7 (sorry, didn't label before rolling) - so Mediterranean Agricultural.
1st (and only) battle for both armies, no other strength modifiers, so 1550 pts each.
Etruscans are attackers, so are side A and will move first.

Since this is the second battle of Vulci (Vulci II), the password is: VulciII
