The rules do not cover what happens if multiple armies invade the same area. We decided to let the dice decide. 1d6 plus War Rating. Highest roller invades the nation first. After all, each turn is three months, which is more than enough time to march up and down a country. It all fell out as follows:
1. Treyine invades Tropilium
2. Hykar invades Treyine (the Treyine army will be footsore by now)
3 The Brethren invade the Border Kingdoms
4. Zog-Rot invades the Border Kingdoms
The situation at the start of Autumn 988:

So you're playing that an army can participate in multiple battles during a season?
ReplyDeleteYes. A season is three months, which is a fair bit of time really and we don't envisage the nations being huge, so we agreed that an army could fight multiple battles in one season. It's a bit like Harold marching north to Stamford Bridge and then back down to Hastings and fighting at both places within a short space of time. This kind of rationalisation might become problematic if any nation becomes large enough to occupy most of the campaign map, though.
ReplyDeleteMaybe an army can fight two battles within adjoining provinces...
