Read to the bitter end... Amused? Me not!  lol lol lol

For a possible scenario continuation, I asked Panos to throw 2 D6 to see what happened to our captains:

Panos brought an 8: Blohm was wounded and rescued by his loyal soldiers. He will recover in time for the next game.

I threw the dice in low spirits. I know when this happens, I have a presentiment... I brought 5. Ill-fated Zdravin...

We read: Captured while hiding in some Honour-draining manner, perhaps in a privy or a dung heap, pretending to be a pregnant woman, or perhaps dressed as a nun. Must be ransomed back, costing 5 Honour.  ??? Aaaargh!!!

The Czar is already preparing an interrogation committee, Zdravin's performance was totally disgraceful!

But, dear readers, may I ask who were my superiors, to whom may I complain?
Who recalled one of my units for a second game in a row?   lol  lol  lol

I think I'll abandon the landlubber's harsh life and turn back to piracy!  lol

Beautiful looking game!  The best part is role playing your officer.  I feel for Zdravin, the same thing happened to my officer.  Can't wait for the follow up battle.

Your words are soothing my heart (maybe Zdravin's also)  lol
Thank you for encouraging me for a follow up!
This is the power of roleplaying, you get in the position of the game character and you share with him his joy, his ambitions, his pain...
I think Zdravin has received such a beating, I need to devise a very devious scenario for his expiation...
Maybe in a few weeks we see Zdravin's comeback!

Recycled cows

Once upon a time, 25 years before, these cow bases were made as expendables for the Classical Maurya Indians, for DBM.
Played a lot with this army once, then, forgotten to the shelf. But the cows, jumped 2000 years and made it to this game!
Now, they didn't act as a stampeding herd, but in some sort of pinball movement they disturbed the players' plans a little bit, which was fun!
