Once again the first player is the invader and must win the battle to capture the territory.
He sets up the battle; using large armies from the Age of Machiavelli, open battle in Agricultural terrain.

awesum4 using Imperialist 1494-1519 to capture Germany from AHuyton using German States 1494-1542
Lascar using Imperialist 1494-1519 to capture France from PeterthePainter using French 1494-1525
SpeedyCM using Imperialist 1494-1514 to capture Venice from AlexdeTrojan using French 1494-1525

The Valois invaders are;
Doyley50 using Scottish 1494-1557 to capture Savoy from SMJohnso77 using Imperialist 1494-1519
GDod using French 1494-1525 to capture Austria from Kiwiwarlord using Imperialist 1494-1519
Snugglebunnies using French 1494-1525 to capture Spain from GentlemanRanker using Spanish-Imperial 1503-1533

Oops, I was so looking forward to some fine dishes of al dente pasta too. I'm so sick of snails! Still, I now fancy Strudel
Consequently, the Battle For Austria is now set up

Reports from the battlefield say that Doyley50 has failed to capture Savoy from SMJohnso77, by 63% to 40%.
We have no other details of the battle.

I can report that by some miracle my Germans overcame stern resistance from Andre's Imperialists by 60-50. Frankly, the game was evenly balanced and could have gone either way. It largely consisted of a huge pike scrum in the hills where I seemed to be losing but slowly. Happily the victory of my mounted troops on one flank allowed a couple of units to sneak through and hit the Imperialist keils where it hurts and this was decisive. A hard-fought game and an enjoyable one, irrespective of the result, thanks Andre.

Horror, infamy, disaster: SnuggleBunnies’ French defeat GentlemanRankers Spanish by 46 – 19.

The splendid Spanish team, having fallen into the relegation zone, will be requiring a new manager for Round 4; it is to be hoped that whosoever takes up the challenge does a better job with this promising side than did the current incumbent of that role.
