I'm back.  Feeling kind of punk from a bad cold/flu.  I'm kind of a defensive minded player so I'm happy to defend.  Special request for lots of rough, and hills on my side of the map and for all the Muslim LH to get poisoned by bad oats. 😊

Welcome back @otosan - hope you feel better soon.

@vuk-teble — so, I’m guessing it’s your attack then for the Christian side?

Here we have it -- battles for Turn 4:

 

Aragon attacks ZARAGOZA from Aragon -- @chiquichops to defend vs @vuk-teble 

 

Andalusian attack LEON from Salamanca --  I'll command that one vs @otosan  -- I'll take Andalusian (1050-1154) - with Catalan Allies.

Let's see if the Pot Luck map gives us some hills/mountains. 😎

Yes, that's okay.  👍

I'll set up later, usual PWD. I'll take Castilian allies.

A bloody day of work in Zaragoza, the Catalans brought a force of nothing but knights and spears and marched straight up the middle leaving a couple skirmishers behind to distract the jav cav.

And it worked, pretty much. I didn't get much chance to distract and my cavalry was overwhelmed. It could go either way still, the next turn or two will be the decider.

So, we managed a minor victory, it was a close one.

@chiquichops Yup - 61-51. Nicely played. I managed to break all your Castilian knights, but doing so left all my cav so depleted that they didn't really win anything meaningful after that. Lots of ineffectual charges or pursuing lights.

Emir @chiquichops manages to narrowly defeat the attack by the Kingdom of Aragon's mostly Catalan army into ZARAGOZA inflicting a (51 - 61 = -10%) Minor Defeat.

The battle for LEON is still with the opening skirmishes... serious battle to commence soon.

Nope - only for Major Defeat.
