Imperial Soil Revisited: Concluded

[AKvGoeben]

AKvGoeben (Eastern army with Southern allies) defeats Tomoegozen (Northern army with Central allies) 20-49.

Northern attack on a slight hill held by the Eastern army repulsed with heavy losses, aided by a redeployment of the Eastern cavalry from the left flank to the right flank which resulted in a local superiority of force for the Eastern army. Significant portion of the Northern infantry were unengaged in the main fight.

GGWP to Tomoegozen!

Setting up the battle

• The defender of the attack creates the challenge in the FoG2 Multiplayer Lobby (always with defender as Side B (in order for the other player to immediately be able to deploy when accepting the challenge).
  • Please note that the Imperial Soil Revisited v1 module (MP_IMPERIAL_SOIL_V1) needs to be selected and launched under Select another module when creating the challenge.
  • When the challenge has been created, the defender, for information, sends a PM to the attacker and makes a post in the campaign thread.

• Each of the attacks are fought out between the attacker and the defender as an individual battle in Field of Glory II - Medieval as follows:
  • Armies and allies:
    • Attacker: in accordance with the attack declarations.
    • Defender: please see below.
  • Turn limit: 24 turns.
  • Scenario: Custom Battle - Open Battle.
  • Force size: Large (1600 FP).
  • Map size: Wide (40x32).
  • Map type: Mediterranean Agricultural.
  • No map re-rolls are allowed.

Concluding and reporting the battle

• Please conclude battles within four weeks (i.e., by January 24 at the latest).

• Battle outcome, once resolved, is always reported by the player having inflicted the highest casualties through a post in the campaign thread.

Defenders' army lists

• Defenders use the same rules as attackers when main armies and allies are determined.

• When it comes to main armies, it's fairly straightforward in that the same army list is used when defending as when attacking.

• However, determining and selecting allies could be more flexible (other than that allies must be used, if any are available):
  • If a player in the beginning of the round controls any provinces in a region or regions other than the one of his main army (see above), he must choose as allies from among such regions in his battles that round.
  • However, under any of the circumstances below, he may (if he wishes) instead choose allies as follows:
    • If defending in a defender province located in the Central region, the Guelf army can be used as allies.
    • If defending in a defender province located in the Eastern region, the Byzantine army can be used as allies.
  • The player may freely choose different allies for different battles even if in the same round.
