Default Re: Helheim\'s destruction

ooc- Well keep in mind that I had ordered the army to retreat, so there really was no fight. Now you might be curious as to why I gave that order, and even if you are not, I am going to tell you anyway.

I knew I wouldn't be able to defeat your forces when they would storm the fort, so I decided that I would have them retreat. After that, I would move them to my capital where I could stand a better chance. Let's just say that the manual has a game crippling mistake. On pages 71 amd 72 it describes the game hosting order. Number 13 says Other Movement including Break Siege. Number 14 says Move Battles ie battles caused by movement. 15 says castle storming. I am almost 100 percent positive that I had put all my commanders on the break siege order. For some reason you and T'ien Ch'i both did your move battles before I did anything, which resulted in my retreating units having nowhere to go. The real question is why? Can anyone think of a reason for this other than a misprint?
