Languishing Eternally (VQ Game)

[Solmyr]

Since you attacked from Ionian, don't you have to go back there?

A spectacular fireworks display over Corfu is enjoyed by all. Ottomans sail on into the Adriatic.

If the combat occurred in a port, the attacker retreats to a sea zone connected to that port that is free of enemy naval units.

Apparently not, which is one reason I guess that I could have wanted to intercept.

Actually don't I get an intercept chance for that land movement too?

In that case I would have fought your galleys at sea and used the CP to move into the Adriatic. 6/6 but with better(but apparently still terrible) battle odds for me.

Yes you're right, do you want to intercept?

Fair.

Did intercept roll and my 4 mercs face you down in Agram.

[Solmyr]

Why are you fighting the Ottomans in open battle though? Your mercs can just hide in the fortress.

[Maximus]

5. Fight Field Battle: If any of the interceptions were successful,
fight a field battle (Section 14) in the destination space. All units
from the intercepting power must participate in this battle; they
may not avoid battle or withdraw into a fortification.

[Habbaku]

Not if they intercept.  Intercepting forces must fight a field battle.

[ulmont]

Max from ACTS:

all for 2

It will be a bit before I can send a file. Ulmont can remove 2 cav if he plays before then.

My play:

Spanish road as event:
- 1 regular added to Milan;
- Don John becomes a leader and moves to Milan;
- Don John, 6r+2m quasi-deploy from Milan under the special rules for Spanish Road to Mons.

Treasure play for 3 CP:
1/3 - Don John, Alva, 7r+6m move to Brussels; Protestants retreat into the fort per Habbaku.
2-3/3 - fortress to Chilean Coast.

File sent; Sol up.

[Solmyr]

Elizabeth hires more mercs and sends witches to put a spell on Philip II.
Berkut up.

[ulmont]

Elizabeth hires more mercs and sends witches to put a spell on Philip II.

England bears no ill will to our Spanish cousin.

[Habbaku]

Anyone else with some anti-Spanish stuff (preferably something like German Recruitment Curtailed) is invited to make an offer for its play...
