FOG Medieval: Kingdoms & Empires Campaign – TURN 7 – Page 18 – Field of Glory

Rico · 2026-05-26T13:31:34Z

RULES The map is divided into 36 provinces, grouped into 12 regions of three provinces each (indicated by the colour on the province names) Players have 15 turns to consolidate as large a kingdom or empire as they can from their initial scattered possessions while playing with a large variety of medieval armies. Basic concept is simple: 1. At start each player picks a faction colour. I then assign provinces to each faction by random draw. Each player then in turn places their capital into a province of their choice. 2. Each faction gets ONE attack per turn and fight each other to consolidate their kingdoms -- controlling the three provinces in a region adds TWO extra points to their score. 3. In TURN 1, the attack orders sequence is determined by random draw -- from TURN 2 onwards, the attack orders sequence is determined by the best battle result % differential each faction scores in the previous turn. SET UP With a campaign of FIVE factions/players, each faction get a random draw of SIX provinces. The leftover SIX provinces are designated as NEUTRAL or Minor States provinces (see: Neutral Provinces) Players then secretly let the DM know where they will place their Capitals. (as DM I will lock in my choice first, before the other factions make their placements) ATTACKS & ARMIES Every TURN each faction gets to launch ONE attack. A faction can attack any enemy or neutral province that is adjacent to a friendly-controlled province or across a sea zone if a FLEET is available. You may not attack from a province that is already under attack by another faction. You may attack into a province from which an attack into a different province has been launched. They can also attack across sea zones (see: Seaborne Attacks) They can also attack across CROSSING POINTS (see between Morocco & Granada or between Ireland, Scotland and England in map above) ARMIES used in the battles are determined by the TURN TRACK -- which is 15 turns divided into FIVE eras of 3 turns each, each era covering roughly a century. The attacking player will select an army geographically appropriate for the province attacking from... and the defender will select an appropriate army from the province being attacked. Both armies will have to be from the time period on the Turn Track of the current turn. The ATTACKER declares the attack and selects his army from the province he is attacking from appropriate to the time period on the Turn Track. The DEFENDER then selects his army from the province he is defending, appropriate to the time period on the Turn Track. The DEFENDER then sets up the battle. BATTLES are all Medium, Open Battle. Map Type is by default "Pot Luck" -- or can be arranged between the players to fit the terrain of the province being contested. Also, if a map is totally unplayable, players can arrange a re-start by mutual agreement -- I will rely on the FGM's honour and sportsmanship to sort it out amicably. ATTACKING A NEUTRAL PROVINCE works a little differently. The ATTACKER declares the attack and selects and army from the province he is attacking from. A DEFENDER is then chosen amongst the other faction players (by DM draw or volunteering) who then choses an appropriate defending army. The DEFENDER must play the battle with an AUTOFILL force selection. Battle parameters are the same as above. BATTLE RESULTS Attacker Major or Minor Victory -- Province is captured -- attacker earns 1 Bonus Point. Attacker Minor Defeat -- attack is repulsed Attacker Major Defeat -- attack is repulsed -- defender earns 1 Bonus Point (bonus points are not awarded for defending Neutral Provinces) If a battle times out with no side being routed, then the battle is a Draw and the attacker has the option to withdraw or continue the battle in the next turn using the same armies. (even if the Turn Track has advanced to a new era) Victory Level Definitions A Major Victory is when you win by routing the enemy with between 40% to 59% casualties and a minimum +25% margin. A Minor Victory is when you win by routing the enemy with 60%+ casualties, with any % margin. However, if you adjust the above winning score down to 59% and the difference is still +25%, it's upgraded to a Major Victory. If a battle times out with no side being routed, then the battle is a Draw and the attacker has the option to withdraw or continue the battle for ONE more turn using the same armies. (even if the Turn Track has advanced to a new era). BONUS POINTS Bonus Points are very important in this campaign, as they allow you to do additional things over and above the ONE regular attack per turn. One Bonus Point each is earned for: 1. Capturing a Province (either enemy or neutral) 2. A Defensive Major Victory 4. Destruction of an Enemy Fleet (see Naval Combat) 5. TWO Bonus Points for capturing an enemy Capital Province A faction can earn several Bonus Points per turn, but there is a maximum limit of FOUR Bonus Points...

@rico I'm happy to defend Morocco again, but as @otosan and @cargol both only have one battle I'll give them the right of first refusal.

@vuk-teble: Crusader (1118-1154) Allies: Syrian States (1090-128) vs Fatimid Egyptian (1074-1171)

Let's go for a rematch. The Crusaders have it tough but I fancy a challenge, I think...

I'll set it up now
