Although the map is arranged so that the various kingdoms will not come into contact with one another on the first turn, there are about a dozen provinces on the map where this could happen. One example is Anjou, by France and Aquitaine.

If both France and Aquitaine make a move for Anjou on the same turn, ownership of the pr ...[text shortened]... e another, then their armies will fight each other as well as the independant garrison in Anjou.[/b]
Question: two nations at war invade the same independent nation. What determines which enemy recieves what percent of the damage? Does each side take half?

I set up a Napoleonic Empires and that went pretty easy except for the inevitable folding of a major country early in the game. Rob tried to start his around Christmas and the holidays; maybe that had something to do with his difficulties (and he's not the sharpest tool in the shed, either).[/b]

By vigorous, I mean persistent and single-minded, even to the point of being self-destructive (i.e. Arles and now Bavaria). I did not mean "successful."

Ok, I botched the quote thingy and my edit didn't seem to make much difference either. Bother.

Although the icon DOES look a lot like me.

I wish you had submitted your turnfile last turn; if it was as moronic as most of them have been, you would have met even worse disasters than you did. Now you get to build a double amount of troops

Take heed, O clueless allies of Venice. Open your eyes to what conceit and disdain and outright hatred Venice has shown so far. Tired of his pomposity and basic asinine venom-spewing? Remember, you can always join the side of right, the side of fairness, the side of not being belittled for merely voicing your opinion. Want to shove his boastful, lying, self-serving face in it? You know what to do...

On that I agree, Arles, Bavaria and Hungary are like crack addicts destroying themselves desperately trying to get the "fix" of Venice. It's sooooooooooo near, yet like Sisyphus then can never quite roll the rock to the top of the mountain. In the last 5 turns, Arles has been destroyed and Bavaria and Hungary combined have lost -3 in Gold value of their provinces, while Venice has went +30. The sad part is they still think they're "winning" or "dominant". Poor deluded fools.

Take note that I never said "require"... yet more twisting of the facts to suit his agenda.

Did you manage to get your turnfile in this week, Princess Dimwit? There's a couple more surprises coming your way; it's like Christmas Eve for ya!

How about: you play the game you like to play it, no1 plays the game he likes to play it, and leave it at that?

Much as you would like people to help you 'shove it in his face', right now it's not Venice that's suffering from the focus on Venice.

This kind of pulchritude is what inspired it, Aquitaine. He's been full-on like this for the entire thread, calling us idiots and morons. A person can only take so much of this before wanting to shove his face in it, capiche?

"(and he's not the sharpest tool in the shed, either)"

See? He simply cannot write a post without some insult. It got real tiring, real fast.

That's their problem, Orf; rather than play the game to win they've decided to focus their whole attention on trying to wipe me out with an amazing lack of success, I might add. That's why Roum leaves 30% of her army on Crete doing nothing for 6 turns; she took it from the Republic and can't think of the possibility of losing it back! It's a 4 Gold province, for Cripes sakes! Then she wants to drum up an invasion of Italy to "show me", so she splits her fleet allowing a 1/3 of it to be easily destroyed by the Mamulukes and her home provinces to be vulnerable to attack. Examples like this abound with the other Heathers as well.

At the hands of your puppet the Mamlukes?

Or are you actually going to come get your own hands dirty for a change? Why not? Your puppets have done a bit of softening up, so it shouldn't be too hard, even for you.

It's called a joke, Genius; check my home page and see what clans I'm in and who the leaders are. Some people here have a sense of humor and aren't shrieking, hysterical witches like you.

The funny part is how you think that no1's behaviour actually has something to do with this game and should be taken personally.

Funny odd as well as a bit funny ha-ha. Because he's been using that style of communication on this site for, like, forever, y'know?

He's hardly going to stop because it upsets you. There's a queue of people before you who haven't succeeded in doing that.

Hey, stupid... my orders weren't processed last turn, remember? Otherwise the Mamlukes would still be cowering in Jerusalem, their "fleet" at the bottom of the sea.

How have the Mamlukes become puppets, exactly? This is news.
