Round 1: Administration (cont.)
Egypt Army I: 6 6 8 8 6
Rome Army III: 8 10 12 10 10 8
Pontus Army I: 12 12
Rome Army II: 6 8
Egypt Army II: 4 2
Pontus Army III: 8 10
Please note that I've also changed the rules (this round for the benefit of Egypt Army II only) so that an army having won a battle is now allowed (but not obliged) to move 1 - 6 MP in any direction (instead of the previous 1-4). Since most hexes cost 3 MP (and in winter even 6 MP), it'd otherwise not be so advantageous to win.

Round 2: Supply and upkeep
SUPPLY
UPKEEP
- Armies are supplied to the extent provided through foraging in the hexes themselves (ports can also provide supply), as follows:
UPKEEP
- Upkeep cost is paid in the Supply and Upkeep phase, after having received the round's Army Replacement Points, adding to the factions' current Army Replacement Points pools (currently zero from first round), as follows:
- Pontus: 24.
- Rome: 24.
- Armenia: 8.
- Egypt: 12.
- Syria: 8.
- Upkeep cost for each army amounts to 2 plus its current size in Army Replacement Points (i.e., 3, 4, 5, 6, 7).
- After payment of upkeep costs, Army Replacement Points remain as follows:
- Pontus: 0 (-24).
- Rome: 2 (-22).
- Armenia: 0 (-8).
- Egypt: 3 (-9).
- Syria: 0 (-8).

Round 2: Recruitment
Reinforcing Existing Armies
=> However, only Rome of the two has reinforceable armies (II, III, and IV) located in controlled and unsieged towns or cities in currently controlled provinces.
(Please note that reinforcing armies that lost or drew battles in the previous round will reduce their movement allowance, unless commanded by generals.)
Raising New Armies
=> Not enough ARP for any faction to raise new armies this round.
Obtaining Generals
=> Not enough ARP for any faction to obtain new generals this round.
- Existing armies can in the Recruitment phase be reinforced up to size 5 (of its original size) in a controlled and unsieged town or city in an currently controlled province.
- The cost of reinforcing an existing army amounts to twice the size increase in Army Replacement Points (e.g., 2 Army Replacement Points if reinforcing from size 3 to 4).

Round 2: Movement instructions
Time for round 2's movement instructions by July 20 at the latest.
- All major faction and client state faction armies get 12 MP each to be used for movement that round, provided however that:
- an army having lost a battle in the previous round gets its movement allowance reduced to 6 MP, and further to 0 MP if reinforced (unless commanded by a general at the beginning of the Movement phase).
- an army having drawn a battle in the previous round gets its movement allowance reduced to 6 MP if reinforced (unless commanded by a general at the beginning of the Movement phase).
- In addition, all armies that at the beginning of the Movement phase are commanded by a general get an additional +4 MP, whether movement allowance has been reduced or not.
- Movement instructions are expressed as a sequence of individual moves, with no other symbols in between, only blanks (for easy copy-pasting by me).
- For example, Roman army I: 2 4 2 6 0 6
- Please send the movement instructions of your faction's armies by way of PM to me.
- Your faction is free to decide whether a one player submits for all armies, each player for his own army or armies, or whatever what works for you.
- However, if I receive any conflicting instructions, I'll use the ones received last (as long as not after the deadline).
- I'll not open any of the other factions' PMs until I've published the movement instructions of my own faction.

Round 2: Executed moves
Edit: Egypt Army II decides to stay in Petra and complete the siege, but movement instructions below remain as is in order to keep and not "game" the "random" values.

Romans win 56- 24
The Romans took advantage of the rough terrain and won the central hill. With a strong position nullifying the Pontic Cav and a points advantage the proper Roman Legions showed up their imitations. Well played edb.
