Bactrian Empire Campaign 250 BC Gameplay

[devoncop]

Ptolemaic Kingdom - mikec_81 (1,000 FP) moves 4 areas to attack Saka - devoncop (1,200 FP) in Steppe. The defender sets up the game.

The Score Sheet and Movement Map have been updated (page 11).

Hsiung-nu had MSN 7, but as the GM I will skip my move and move last.

Movement Sequence Number 8 is next: Nabataea - hidde

The Saka General will not be wearing the womens clothing he is scurrilously accused of using to escape the last military reverse from..........he wishes it to be known he only wears such garments at the weekend and in the privacy of his own yurt.

Parthia smashes the Bactrian Empire, 48-3, forever establishing a humbling superiority. A Bactrian general perished, just as well for him--although battlefield escapee has reported that he was last seen being forced to eat bushels of humble pie, one after another. Alas.

The Hsiung-nu submit on bended knee to a new overlord from the west: Nabataea. They won 48-12 and the Hsung-nu lost two sub-generals. Wow, I couldn't even with with 1,200 vs. 1,000 FP.

This should have been named the Nabataean Empire Campaign.

Merry Christmas everyone!

My Atrropatene's are fighting Arab tribes....
Will a defeat this simply push one of us down the 'food chain'??

Arab Tribes attacked Atropatene. If Arab Tribes wins then they gain Atropatene as a vassal (and the 5 VP), and Ptolematic Kingdom loses Atropatene as a direct vassal. Ptolemaic Kingdom still receives the 5 VP for Atropatene since Arab Tribes is part of the Ptolemaic Kingdom's vassal tree.

If Atropatene wins, then nothing happens; they just successfully defend against invasion. Of course they score 20 VP for the win and draw two Movement Sequence chits for the final turn of the campaign.

The Armenian invasion of the Seleucid empire came to nothing. A drawn battle and an empty-handed trek home.

The Ptolemaic Army was led a not very merry dance and succumbed to defeat by the resurgent forces of Skythia on a battlefield ideal for lots of galloping about and shooting. No generals on either side fell to my knowlege. 44% to zero.

The Skythian General wore mens clothing

Thanks to Mike for keeping his frustration in check !

Invading open plains with mounted Nomadic tribes was a baaaaad idea

Is the Mountain Indian vs. Mauryan Empire game still ongoing, or did I miss a result posting? The deadline to complete the game is midnight Sunday January 7th.

Still going, just getting started really, I think we must be on totally opposite schedules. I'm about to be out of town for several days, until the 8th, sadly.

That is unfortunate. Keep us posted.

The time is up for the Turn 5 games and, unfortunately, one game was incomplete. I've updated the final Turn 5 score sheet (page 11).

There were no Commanders-In-Chief lost, so on to the final turn.
