Map - Year 2, Turn 1

The latest map. Noteable events are the beginning of the Bretonnian siege of Kislev, the dark elf fleet catching and sinking the last of the high elf ships at harbour, and the dwarven annexation of an ogre village in the sweltering South.

Faq 1

Settlements separated by sea from the Capital, how do they provide revenue if they are isolated?
They provide revenue just fine provided you can trace a line of control to your capital, i.e. You have an unbroken line of provinces to your capital that you control (you don't 'control' provinces that are being besieged. You also dont 'control' provinces you own if it has an enemy ship in it and you don't have an army - pirates)

Can fleets embark an army, move and land an army in the same turn?
The fleet can embark and move but it can't 'land' an army unless it's landing on a different island on the same province (hex). The exceptions are high elves and dark elves because their ships can normally move two squares.

How does a banner act in allied provinces?

To ally with a player you must sign an official peace treaty seen by the GM. 'Allied' armies cannot get subsistence from tiles they don't own. Also no revenue can be garnered from a tile with an allied army in it in the last campaign month. Finally, allied armies cannot make winter quarter in their allies realm.

Rules - Victory Conditions

Victory conditions are the following:

The first person to control 5 capitals at the beginning of a winter season is the winner.

Only one player can win and be crowned 'Emperor of the Reforged Isles' in the Lost City of the Old Ones (I wonder where that might be on the map). All his allies are considered tributary states and generally forgotten by history.

Map Update - Army Deployment End of Year One

Here is the army deployment for the end of year one. Only espionage left for year one now, sharpen those back-stabbery daggers...

Army Banners: Dwarf Gyrocopter

Oh-arr I 'ave been paintin'. We mentioned previously that Warmaster models would be a great option for army banners.

You are privileged to be present for the unveiling of my new all powerful army banner. I can't lose with this baby on the map.
First off, click this link, come right back and let it play in the background.

Map Update - Dying Days of Year One

Well folks, after a cracking start, we have the map for the last days of year one. We still have some deployment and espionage to sort out, but we're off! Once again, let me extend the cold and dead hand of friendship to the dwarf and bretonnian realms. Peace and love.
