The Lost World Campaign

The Empire of the Panther welcomes Parthia into a mutual defence alliance. The Pantherites also wish to extend hands of friendship to those willing to accept.

What is with all these alliances, has the Lost World gone soft!

The 2 nations that gobbled up Parthia now allies with same?

Perhaps the bloodshed of the summer was too much?

Peter , we now need a mechanism to compete in social reforms: dam, bridge and school building projects, medicade for the plebs etc

I think, if i start a battle in season summer, start battle 2, is ongoing and then peter declares season changes, battle two is considered done in the fall I would think 2 victories, even spread over 2 seasons would gain one the province?

The seasonal phase merely halts the battles / wars whilst we do diplomacy, taxation etc. You then continue from the same point. With the change to 500 point armies there is no reinforcing/topping up an army. Only an event card can do that.

Unused Event cards are now discarded. I'll look at amending some of the events in light of comments received but will leave the Fall season as is, i.e. no event card. Starting in Spring we'll move to Event Cards every season with said amendments of some.

I have enough info now to finish the Fall stuff so please carry on with the slaughter

The red flag of war has been dropped, off we go !

Oh darn it, Peter, how up to date is the chart of alliances? I'd hate to invade an ally of an enemy of an allied allies ally

Misses his supply of Gallic grapes...finishes up with the Bubblette loin girding (amazing how long a process that can be

) and hurls the soggy papyrus rag of war at the Clan of the Brave (23) and marches his army of Ptolemaic pikers down through Rome and Covenanter lands...

Will post a challenge. Password: bubbles

The Horde marches to the attack. Challenge posted for Canaan, password PM'd.

This one is an SOA battle for variety...

Throws dart at map. Darn it, he's an ally. Throws second dart. Darn it, that's an ally's ally. Throws third dart. Drat, he's not adjacent. I guess it'll have to be the new guy then. The Horde (Lancastrian variety) marches on New Englandia.

Challenge about to be posted. Password "New England"

I cannot see any SOA challenge. Perhaps someone else accepted the wrong one?

There may be other communications beyond these posts and this may be a summary of these communications. But I thought I'd point out that the defender selects the province where the armies meet - just in case this rule has been overlooked.

Welcome to player 25 CharlieChap - The Delian Confederacy - using Macedonian & HTW English (Cont). Placed on the bottom row in that last current space.

Another 2 players wanting on board but I'm checking with Scar on the practicalities of expending the grid from 25 to 30 players. However I assume no-one has heard from KenPortner (player 22) so he may have simply dropped out.

Now posting the updated players table with all the alliances I'm aware of - I'll tidy it up a bit later by listing the allied players in number order.

Please do check I've got everything right.

And please make Charlie feel at home by attacking him / offering an alliance.

I'm doing the taxation updates next - been a lot of builds so be warned there be more cities out there than the map currently shows. Then I'll get the post Fall battle results sorted. Should be fully upto date today - thanks for your patience
