:huh:

Can you play the card after you see the result of the resource dice roll?
First Maxim - "There are only two amounts, too few and enough."
First Corollary - "You cannot have too many soldiers, only too few supplies."
Second Maxim - "Be willing to exchange a bad idea for a good one."
Second Corollary - "You can only be wrong or agree with me."

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.

I doubt the text would read that it allowed a resource gained from a rout to be canceled if I couldn't play it after seeing if you got a resource.
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

Quote from: Scum of the EarthAll Units/leaders lost due to disruption in a Rout (not those killed by 6's) are sent to Regroup instead of being eliminated.  Any Resource ained by this Rout is lost.

Good, it doesn't prevent the rout, it mitigates the consequences. Since I still get the rout I keep moving.

Kutuzov (this time only with own army) and 6 CU move to Zurich, losing 1 CU to attrition and attacks Lannes. I don't know if the earlier failed withdrawal counts as a +1 die for russia for this battle as well.

But I expect you'll try to withdraw again. If you fail (you still don't have Lannes leadership bonus) will I get +1 or +2?

If you make that move, you're going to be making two attrition rolls, not just one.  You make one based on my event play and another for moving out of an uncontrolled duchy per 9.43.

Yeah, I think you might want to flag the duchy you are moving from first. If you have enough CPs.

Still...killing Lannes - that cannot be a bad thing.

You should probably note that there is nothing stopping me from intercepting with Massena's corps, either...

I made the dice roll, I can't take it back

4/6 flag Wurtemburg
5/6 move to Zurich with Kutuzov

Massena can try.

Edit: Fixed my misspelling of Massena's name.

Massena fails, let's see Lannes roll for his withdrawal.

Per ACTS, Massena failed to intercept, but Lannes got away to Franche-Comte.

Russians have 1 CP left.

Last CP flags Zurich.

Fleetfoot Lannes, the Bravest of the Brave, Prince of Augsburg and the last man to leave Germany and Cross the Rhine.

Will send out my file.

I have to say that Russia is holding up their end of the "Crush the French" bargain admirably.

That seems to be the only way of getting Keys without my allies bitching about giving them their keys back....
