Oh, so maybe it should be "point per gold piece" or "point per HP" instead of "points for being in 4th place", is that what you're saying? Sounds like more work, but more accurate. You're doing a ton of work already though. Isn't it a pain to count everybody's values on everything?
Well, the gold value per province is the last message, so that's easy. I wind up checking every province and sea, but there's a summary of the combat strengths and hit points for each realm in each territory and sea, so that's not really hard. It's just bookkeeeping plus this way, I write it down and don't get any surprises.

How'd you take Lorraine without losing a unit, Mad King of Arles?

One province and one unit, I'd say Lithuania's cooked. Who's next, Great Khan? The way it's WWI everywhere else, you might wind up with a solo win.

Working on the power ratings; they'll be up in a half-hour or so.
The Great Khan really isn't THAT greedy. I'm perfectly willing to share the glory with other qualified realms.

You'd need 500 gold in provinces for the solo win, right? Or about 300 for a 4-way win.

250 each in a 4-way.

It's more complicated than that. http://lordsofconquest.com/victory/medieval.html

I was assuming he'd be the lone Major Power and would therefore own a greater share of property than his partners. Major guy needs about 250+(250/4) which is a little over 300. The minors would each need about 180+63 = 243. Call it 300/250/250/250.

It's extremely difficult to get a solo win. I don't think that's a realistic proposition in this game. As I said, I'm perfectly prepared to share in the glory (assuming I'm still in a position to do so when the time comes).

A 160 CP force up against a possible couple thousand? Saxony made a strategic withdrawal.

Lol, the sheep that rules the Teutonic Order promised me an "escape route", however I haven't heard from him in 10 days.. 🙁

Guess my family'll get slaughtered anyway.

He's not awfully talkative and somewhat haphazard in communications. My sympathies for your position.

Victory Conditions: The coalition must have 250 gold, +250 for each Major Partner, and +180 for each Minor Partner. There must be at least 1 Major Partner in the declaration. For example, a sole victory would need gold revenue of (250+250)=500 (there would be 1 Major Partner), and a coalition with 2 Major Partners and 1 Minor Partner would need gold revenue of (250+250+250+180)=930.

I thought you needed total gold within the coalition of 700. Anyway, that's all academic at the moment.
