Speaking of wingnuts...did you tighten yours down and get the game working on your PC?

No, it won't work on my PC. I've went through the process of "troubleshooting" such problems before; it invariably entails about 10 hours of frustration, cursing and throwing furniture around to no avail. I gave the GM another e-mail address to my uncle's computer and will try to play it there IF they ever get around to responding.

Ok, well, if you change you mind, I would be happy to assist - as I said before, I am a computer geek and live and breathe this stuff.

Bump!

I've also made an RHP user map based on Rwing's overhead map.

I've already revised my map to include everyone's name. I put them in a column down the side, however.

How do you know if Villa68 and Lexo go in the countries you've indicated? Have you received an updated email from the GM with them in it? I have received nothing.

Ok, they are up in the air... I assumed you put their names in order first, and the regions in order by owner.

I guess I have a 50/50 shot? I'll fix my map when we know for sure, I made the map so I could know at a glance rather than following text.

Is there a chance these won't even be users, like it was too late to change things up after the start?

I think it's too late for them for this week. They'll probably get inserted for next turn. I don't think the GMs work over the weekend.

I've edited them out for now. Time will tell.

Nicely done. It gives a nice overview of who's got what and where. Would it be possible to update the countries after each round, or would that be too much effort?

I've trying to get a handle on what are decent odds when attacking. Can you help me understand this?

Decent odds? The greater the better. If you want to be sure of winning, don't attack unless it's at least 2:1. But don't forget to take into account the fortification modifiers, if there are any. Those will make the defense considerably stronger.

But those are just my opinions in general. It doesn't mean they're necessarily right. Circumstances may dictate otherwise.

I intend to update my map after every turn. You'll see in the upper left corner, it says:

Medieval Diplomacy
Turn 1

That will change with every turn, so you'll know if the map has been updated yet or not.

They're the last in the line but will become involved. I think the trick is to use your more expendable/cheap troops up front. I'm not sure whether it's better to put infantry up front, cavalry second and archers third - or whether to put archers second. I suspect the latter.
That's an interesting viewpoint. From what I understand, though, isn't it better to stick the units with the most hitpoints up front to absorb the big damage, while keeping everything else back to mop up the remainders?
