post your attacks here [Smile]

thats simple enough..remember more detail put in to writing attacks..probalby the better in your favor the outcome will be, and if attacking another player country, they have the full turn to write up a defence, if they don't write up a defence, i will assume all units stay together and attack together

LIST the units involed in the attack
If The Attack Is Not Posted In Here, It Will Not Be Honored

Macedonia Attacks Northern Province!

10 regiments of Crossbowmen stand atop a cliff overlooking the whole of 43's army, very primitive in the eyes of the Macedonians. The Riegn of arrows begin to drop upon the poor army, and when their calvary/infantry began to clime the cliff, 5 regiments of knights poured over to slaughter the oncoming foes, while another 5 regiments swooped behind to destroy any opposing archers or left over forces.

I object!

i would like to talk it over with him, so if you could postpone doing the outcome i would REALY appreciate it.
if i cant get a hold of him by the time i gotta leave work then(bout 2 hours before the end of the turn) .... oh well, it'll be a masacre, and both of us are gonna get crippled [Wink]

Posted by Teapot (Member # 135) on :

Turn 1
Start with 100 gold
spend 100
(50) 10x Crossbowmen
(30) 5x Camels
(15) 5x Spearmen
(03) 1x Scout Horseman
(02) 2x Clubmen
Bank 0
Unit orders
Turn 1
10 crossbowmen attack 39
5 camels attack 39
5 spearmen attack 39
1 scout horseman attack 39
2 clubmen attack 39

the scout is to scout (wow the surprise) ahead of the army to find out what we're fighting.
the clubmen (classified as scoutish types in the unit list) are to scout on the 2 sides to make sure we dont get flanked.

the spearmen and camels are to protect the crossbowmen from horsy attacks. and the crossbowmen are to kill everything they can reach with their shots.

Turn 1

Attacking Army:
6 Crossbowmen
5 Knights
15 Pikemen

The Great City State of Shagiana (#15) Begins it's Assault on province 16

Orders: Knights flank the defending army and strikes ranged units from Behind eliminating the enemy's ranged attack on Pikemen, pikemen form a solid wall of 12 foot long spears holding off enemy troops while Crossbowmen fire into the enemy Ranks. Crossbowmen are directly behind pikemen to protect against enemy cavalry and are in a staggered formation to prevent the effective use of enemy ranged units vs my Crossbowmen. Pikes slowly move up and force back enemy killing several of them while the Crossbowmen continually inflict casualties to the enemy force, 5 Pikemen split of to take out the left side of the enemy force where the line is thinner and the remaining Knights of the Shagiana forces pursue and capture any remaining enemy troops. Thanks to holding the high ground the Shagiana troops were easily able to hold back enemy troops while raining arrows into the and making it easier for the Shagiana Knights to gallop down the hill and quickly massacre enemy ranged units....

The Nation of Shagiana Responds to Foreign Threat

All negotiations have failed and with frequent raiding and defiling of the great nation of Shagiana ACTION must be taken to protect the virtues of this empire. The Forces of Shagiana have surged over the mountains with a force of:
5 Crossbowmen
3 Knights
10 Pikemen

To Conquer Province #45 who has been breaking many promises, treaties and laws....

The Commander in Chief Hamiro the Great of Shagiana Leads a Valiant force into the field of battle, He orders his Knights to attack the enemy archers, the 3 knights go in, 1 on the left, 2 on the right and strike at the enemy Crossbows forcing them to either stand and fight a solid foe, route and be trampled down or run for cover. The pikemen of Hamiro surge forward like a human net entangling all enemy cavalry and simultaneously causing immense confusion. The Crossbowmen of Hamiro fire into the center of the enemy ranks forcing them into two groups, the crossbowmen of Hamiro quickly go into the middle of the forming frontline of Pikemen forming a circle and pounding on the enemy cavalry while the crossbowmen of Hamiro pick them off with relative ease and the Valiant Knights of Hamiro keep the enemy Knights and other cavalry at odds with Pikemen killing enemy cavalry left and right and Crossbowmen seemingly never missing their marks and falling many enemy troops....

The Shagnada Knights and Pikemen quickly begin to overrun the small settlement and cause great confusion....

teapot Dawg was attacking province 7....

Shagiana Forces Attack Province 30 (No longer occupied)

The forces being used in this attack are:

5 Knights
5 Crossbowmen
15 Pikemen

The Province is no longer occupied by gbotto (who quit) it is now a non-player province.

The Shagiana Forces send their Knights to attack the enemy's ranged units making them useless vs Shagiana Infantry. Pikemen move forward in a square with the Crossbowmen inside firing under the anti-cavalry protection of the Pikemen who massacre enemy cavalry while crossbows level enemy infantry and knights....
