Our cavalry harassed Prince-Elector Dang's mighty infantry blocks until he was forced to go on the offensive. He is wiley, this German, as his breakout maneuvers nearly broke my whole army. But by the Grace of God, we regained our fighting spirit and charged at the flanks and rears of his units unt...

Gdod (Austrian) challenge for King George's stand-in SMJohnso77 (Prussian) has gone unanswered for some time now. Is there any stray Prussian wanting to fill in for him against an easy victim...I mean a mediocre commander with a rudimentary understanding of how to walk forward without tripping up t...

The Qing lost 3 Generals (all Duels I think ) during the game, the last falling right at the end. Thanks Gavin for...

After 24 turns of fierce fight Gribol (Austians) lost with KiwiWarlord (Germans) 65:47 GG to my opponent, which suprised me a little bit with his clever tactics. What a game, what a skillful Austrian General Gribol was, I was amazed at his skill in reading the battlefield and manoeuvring his Keils ...

SnuggleBunnies (Rebels) draws with pompeytheflatulent (Ming) 50-50

The shambolic mobs that remained of the two armies drew apart as night fell at last on bloody rice paddies and burning villages.

Very unusual for you SB.
Have you posted the game on your UTube page ?

Arists impression of the defeat of GDod, sycophant of Jurchen Emperor Wanyan Yongji, in the forests of Josean by the virtuous Korean patriots under lowly court functionary GentlemanRanker who has brought Solace & Honour to the Joseon Military.

KiwiWarlord

What's everybody's feelings on the 200 point advantage? Too much? If the game was at normal size I'd say no point advantage needed, since the Jurchen are only forced to buy one large sized cavalry unit. At large size battles they have to buy four large sized cavalry units so, eh, I'm not sure. 200 ...

I'd be happy to participate in both these themes.
I think people should be able to play a game in each of them. Many of us are playing multiple opponents every day, so it wouldn't be a struggle.

Yes I agree, should make it easier to match up players too.

Do you like the German Rivalries idea SB ?
