Here Languish Stands game thread

[Solmyr]

My rolls suck.

[ulmont]

Shouldn't there be a battle going on in Belgrade?

There will be one in budapest, where the hungarians with 5 will stand and fight outside their walls (chuckle)

I've lost that battle in games before...

My rolls suck.

Win some, lose some.

[Viking]

My rolls rule.. or are sufficiently good to achieve their objectives.

sent a second file where I add the cavalry to Istanbul.

yes my hand so far has been

1 CP - Cabot
2 CP - Wartburg

and presumably

1 CP - Swiss Mercs

[sbr]

So if I were to hypothetically attack Florence, there is no DoW right? 

I just move my hypothetical units onto Florence and resolve the battle?

If I win the hypothetical battle I still need to spend 1CP to take control, right?

[ulmont]

You move your units onto florence.  Because Florence has less than five units they will retreat to the walls of their fortified space.  Then you can assault for one cp.  if you win you'll have Florence.

[Viking]

but remember, you can only assault next turn, since you can only assault forts and towns you were already  besieging at the start of your turn

Don't need to win the battle, just need to kill two.

[ulmont]

Don't need to win the battle, just need to kill two.

Uh, no.  Losing the battle and killing two is the worst possible result, because it means that Buda will become Hapsburg.

[Viking]

Don't need to win the battle, just need to kill two.

Uh, no.  Losing the battle and killing two is the worst possible result, because it means that Buda will become Hapsburg.

oh, yeah, you are right.. I need a unit in the area to get budapest

[Solmyr]

Win some, lose some.

I'm still expecting a card draw.

[Maximus]

By turn you mean impulse, correct?

[Tamas]

Viking will you be sending a file?

[Solmyr]

He did.

[Tamas]

ah

#102: 3 / Spring Preparations

Message from Hapsburgs:
2/3: build a colony
3/3: naval move: 1 squadron from Barcelona to Gulf of Lyon. 1 squadron from Seville to Atlantic Ocean.


Unless somebody does something nasty, or of interest to me (most notably play of Barbary Pirates), I will be passing out the turn.

[Viking]

BTW, I label my emails with a suffix of the kind "Ottoman T1 - Imp3" so that y'all know that the .mov file in the mail is the third impulse of turn 1. It get's confusing when people keep the "Ottoman T1 - Imp3" when they use reply all in the mail title when they send their own turn. I do this labeling for YOUR convenience. If it has no meaning for you I'll stop.
