Probably. It's a p*ss poor fighting unit, but was only sent in as a screening force. Interesting and one for the memory banks.
the Kingdom with the greatest number of troops/leaders in the province at this time must have a total combat of at least 10 (which means a lone siege machine cannot conquer a province).

Originally posted by buffalobillThe rulebooks make cross-game references; there's examples with Orion starships and Warg peasants, too. These little details sometimes slip your mind; in MD, I just forget the rule about amphibious invasions having only the chance to succeed of the invading CS of the ground units invading even an unoccupied province; my 1 Crossbowman is still sitting on a ship.

Originally posted by buffalobillI seem to always lose those. In MD when I took Crete without a battle, the Harbor was destroyed (25% chance) but such did not happen in Venice even though I left some militia.:'(

Originally posted by no1marauderWrong thread in general, but ... in MD, the English and Scottish harbors were both destroyed as was the Hungarian one. Even when there's very little fighting, but not in a major battle as in Jutland. I'm not going to look up the names of those provinces but, as I say, it's a bit of a lottery.

Originally posted by buffalobillShould be an interesting turn; can England bob and weave and survive another season? Will Mayharm submit a turnfile or has the desperate state of Algeria (apparently abandoned by their Spanish ally) caused him to pack it in? Will the AustrianBot stand firm or roll his mighty cavalry force out of Austria itself? Stay tuned.

Ah, look at all the lonely people!
Ah, look at all the lonely people!
Eleanor Rigby picks up the rice in the church where a wedding has been
Lives in a dream
Waits at the window, wearing the face that she keeps in a jar by the door
Who is it for?
All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?
Father McKenzie writing the words of a sermon that no one will hear
No one comes near.
Look at him working. Darning his socks in the night when there's nobody there
What does he care ?
All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?
Eleanor Rigby died in the church and was buried along with her name
Nobody came
Father McKenzie wiping the dirt from his hands as he walks from the grave
No one was saved.
All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
