3 Light Infantry, 13 Crossbowmen, 2 Mercenaries and 10 Elite Marines

vs. 9 knights (Castile went and put his in the front rank [b]again), 5 crossbows and 13 peasants

I've been moving this week and have been unable to look at the turnfiles yet. I just got my internet back up again, but as I have a Mac I still can't look at the turnfiles until my wife brings her PC over.

But I gather there was a huge battle in Austria, which I appear to have won at great cost. What do I have left in the province?

Were there any battles on the northern front? Which provinces did I gain or lose? Anything else I should know?

18 horse archers, 2 Slavic nobles, 6 siege engines and your commanders.

Being a Castilian commander is a hazardous profession. I've killed at least three of them. And now one from Aragon.

Death or glory, you know the story. So where are those horse archers headed to next?

Without being able to see the map at the moment, I have no idea. Now I know what Kovalenko the Blind must feel like all the time.

Ha, that had occurred to me. Kovalenko with his Apple. Wonder if there's a Mongol equivalent of William Tell.

My sources tell me that my realm is holding steady at 419 GP worth. The combined might of AquiAraCastiMor is unable to put a dent in my empire. Death shall be the wages of their folly.

This was about 5 pages down. It was easier to find when you were all being incredibly rude to each other on a regular basis.

It's pretty much a foregone conclusion what the outcome is, so there's not much to banter about.

Poking fun at the departed's not as much fun as you might think.

For better or for worse, the Great Khan is not nearly as talkative as the No1 War Doge was.
