    Okay now that I had a working map again in front of me, just some stuff I noticed:

    Green Army 2 actually had 5 spearmen going into battle against Yellow army 2. You don't move into occupied territories, both sides sit in each territory until the battle is over. So Army 2 didn't have to leave a spearman behind to attack since it never moved out before battle.

    Rather than redo those battles, cool if I just add a spearman to green army 2?

    Army 3 did the same thing attacking Bitchu but it wouldn't have affected the combat.

    @mrbody sorry not game related. You got yourself stocked up on supplies right? I've been hearing reports that its gonna be getting super cold and if the power goes out, that means people will be freezing to death. Like, propane cooking stove? or even a wood burning stove and a cast iron pot?

    sorry, but Preparedness is a quirk of mine. We had a hellacious windstorm and brutal winter back in '06 here and I just remember that if I didn't have my parents to fall back and go home to, I'd have been screwed. It is really a scarey thing to go to a supermarket and see 90% of the shelves empty and people being grumpy.

    You people are no fun. No one in range of my hundreds of ronin...

    Phase A.

    Army 2 Moves to Iwami, gives Army 3 one of his 2 ronin (witch now has 3 of them), Than excange 1 of it's swordman with an archer from army 3 (leaving both army with 2 of both).

    Army 1 Moves to Suo, pick up a spearman and moves back to Iwami.

    Phase B.

    Army 2 attacks Bingo.
    Army 3 attacks Izumo.

    No Hidden Ronin, so I procede with combat.

    Phase C

    Army 3 attacks Izumo.

    Shooting phase: 3 castle guard die immediately.
    http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4777020/

    Hand to hand: Total bloodbath, all remaining defenders die, with 2 death attacking ronin too. (ronin didn't roll, but wasn't needed. they died instead of loyal troops, so they already have done their work...)
    Ota army attacks: http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4777021/
    Defender responce: http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4777022/

    Army 3 advances in Izumo to continue to attack.

    Army 2 autowin in Bingo ( void territory) and advances there, leaving back a spearman in Iwami.

    Army 3 attacks Hoki.

    Shooting phase: Defender eliminated.
    http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4777027/

    Battle won.

    Army 2 attacks Bitchù.

    Shooting phase: Defender eliminated.
    http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4777029/

    Battle won.

    Phase D

    Army 3 detaches a spearman than realax in our new castle.

    Army 2 detaches 2 spearman in Bingo. Than moves to Bungo through Aki and Suo (3 moves due to just got extra experience).

    The detached spearman from army 3 conquer Hoki.

    One of the detached spearman from army 2 conquer Bitchù.

    Gunners from both Higo and Hyuga move to Bungo.

    @MrBody do you confirm me that no one army excluding mine got enough experience to move/attack 3 times? Because if it is not so I would like to revise army 2 phase D moves.

    Sorry, just got a chance to read over and process the move.

    Did you mean to say "Army 3 moves to Suo"? Your army 1 is dead.

    Also, armies cannot exchange units between them (page 18). Units may only be broken off from an army if there is no provincial force in a province it is leaving, then 1 or more units may be left behind as a garrison.

    Please revise move. Battles will have to be rerolled. You may redo all moves.

    Yes I meant army 3.

    I would do exactly the same moves before the attacks (excluding troop excange) and the same attacks.

    Into the attacks, I would have killed the defenders with gunners alone, excluding the castle attack where I would have had more archer ( so eventually killing more of them before retaliation, witch anyway hasn't killed more than the 2 ronin I would have there anyway).

    I think we could leave them as they are, but if you want me to reroll them ( or do it yourself) fine for me.

    D phase:
    Army 2 will move back to Iwami detaching 2 spearman in Bingo.

    Army 3 will move to Hoki, and than back to Izumo, leaving back in Hoki a spearman.

    One of the detached spearman from army 2 conquer Bitchù.

    Gunners from both Higo and Hyuga move to Bungo.

    @MrBody to control if it's all right now.

    You're right that checks out.

    Update coming.

  • Options
    MrBodyMrBody Registered User regular
    Hmmmm hold on. You end phase A with both armies in Iwami. There can only be one army in a province at a time (you may move an army into a province with another friendly army, but only if the other army immediately moves out).

    I think you can get the same attack results by ending Army 2's phase A movement in Aki instead of Iwami. That sound good?

    The bolded sections aren't implemented right. There should be a spearman both in Hoki and Bitchu, army 2 should be in Iwami and the 2 gunners in Higo and Hyuga should be at Bingo.

    Hey MrBody, I think you might have miscounted the number of spearmen in Green Army 3, though I totally understand because my posts are really hectic stream of consciousness stories about picking up and dropping off spearman all throughout Japan.

    Army 3 started with 3 spearmen;
    minus 1 at Iyo to leave a provincial force, so 2;
    pick up 1 at Sanuki - 3;
    pick up 1 at Bizen - 4;
    1 dies to the heroic martyrs at Bichu - 3;
    1 is left at Bichu as a provincial force - 2;
    1 spearman is picked up at Mimasaka - 3.

    Looking at it now, I think that my clan must have the best logistical officers in Japan.

    According to the Jan 14th update, Green Army 3 started with 2 spearmen. It should end with 2 then. I'll fix that.

    Preda's corrections are correct. I also forgot the blue spearman in Awaji again, although the province counts are correct and everyone gets 6 koku this turn.

    Images fixed.

    Remember the game ends the instant someone gets 35 provinces.

    I'd like to use my ninja to attempt an assassination on Preda's Army 2.

    Seeing as it's a fairly important roll, should MrBody roll it, or does no one mind if I go ahead with it?
