Re: 500 AD global campaign - Year 508 turn is up, new players always welcome
Sorry, wasn’t able to look at this during the weekend. Will send my orders soon. [Edit] For my future opponents, we can now use Silk Road 1.5. MP in Version 1.4 is broken.

Re: 500 AD global campaign - Year 508 turn is up, new players always welcome
Apologies if I'm covering old ground here, but a raid costs 17 to gain 15? And if I lose or take large casualties I have to rebuild the army for 50?
Re: 500 AD global campaign - Year 508 turn is up, new players always welcome
I think if you win the raid you also suck money out of the neighbouring provinces if your army is still standing at the raided territory.
Re: 500 AD global campaign - Year 508 turn is up, new players always welcome
As jomni points out, it's a little more complicated than that. You suck money out of adjacent enemy provinces on the next turn. Also if your army is destroyed you get refunded (ie, if you take 60% losses, you get 40% of the cost back.)Apologies if I'm covering old ground here, but a raid costs 17 to gain 15? And if I lose or take large casualties I have to rebuild the army for 50?
BUT - a raid is not supposed to pay for itself in resources. On its own, it keeps your opponent off balance. But the most important thing a raid does is to guarantee you at least one battle a turn. That one battle builds your influence and slows down crisis accumulation (which is not a big thing for small powers, but is worth keeping an eye on for big powers.)
(I'm thinking in future versions to break down resources into different types - money, manpower, and militarism (ie, the desire for offensive operations). In that case, a raid would be a way of exchanging manpower and militarism into money. But that might be too complicated and, at any rate, is not implemented yet.)

It’s beginning to sound like Europa Universalis
Re: 500 AD global campaign - Year 508 turn is up, new players always welcome
So... Right now I believe I have...
Romans
Visigoths
Franks
Wei
Liang
Dumnonia
I'll check in on the Himyarids and the Gepids and try to process another turn shortly.

Re: 500 AD global campaign - Year 508 turn is up, new players always welcome
So.. the next turn is processed.
Here are the battles. First player listed should issue the challenge.
As always, anyone who wants to take any NPC battles are more than welcome to do so!
In China, the Liang launch a major two-pronged offensive as the northerners send troops to liberate land lost to the Rouran.
In western Europe, the Visigoths intervene in dynastic disputes in Narbonensis and Britanny, challenging the Dumnonians and the Ostrogoths. The Franks and Ostrogoths launch raids across their long frontier, while Dumnonian machinations pit Saxon against Saxon in Britain.
The Emperor in Constantinople dispatches his armies to tackle the growing power of the Gepids and to pacify once and for all the border territory of Colchis, a major theater of its contention with the Sassanids.

Re: 500 AD global campaign - Year 508 battles are up
I'd suggested to Najanaja that he take it
Re: 500 AD global campaign - Year 508 battles are up
Anyone for the narbonesis game password = campaign.
the result of the game v the vandals and Slavs is ironclad offered a draw at the start due tot he terrain and army makeups. I tried to close for a couple of turns then resigned as he withdraw all the slav foot into heavy woods (perfect sense) and I chose to resign as the game was a waste of time as you cant assault with heavy lance armed cav into woods.
I dont know how you want to treat this outcome
