MONTH 3

Day 1 – The King has landed at Sandralane’s Barony and will combine with Alzar and her forces and move south.

Day 2 - Geoffrey of Heldann falls.

On Day 3 of the 3rd month of the 3rd year, the following forces entered battle:


Alzar’s Force –
Sandralane’s Force
King Ericall’s Force

Vs

The Thyatian Expeditionary Force –

The Thyatians must break up their army into smaller units, and they break into 1500, 1500 and 7000.

The highest BR selects their opponent first. Alzar takes a 1500 large army.

The next highest is the King. He takes the 7000 strong one

Sandralane gets the 1500 strong one

Results of the day”

Sandralane has a 77 BR and 500 troops

Her foe has 1500 troops and a BR of 85

Here are the rules:

Troop ratio 3:1 for Thyatis gives them +45
Morale - +10 to Sandralane for in dominion of their liege
Environment – None
Terrain - +10 for defending to Sandralane, +20 for defending in hills
Immunities – None
Fatigue – None

Total changes to numbers – Thyatis – 130, Sandralane – 117

Now, you just roll d100 for each player. Thyatis adds 13 to their result. Compare them. Who won and by how much?

Thyatis rolls…99 +13. Dang. 42 for Sandralane. Thyatis won by a difference for 70.

Thyatis loses 30% of their troops, Sandralane 60%, Thyatis is moderately fatigued, Sandralane seriously, and retreats considerably.

Meanwhile, The King and Emperor forces fight.

7000 vs 4000 is just a +15 to Thyatis. +30 to Norwold for defending, but not for fighting in their dominion. So total is… Norwold – 122 and Thyatis is 100. Roll…84 +22 vs….73. So, the result is +33 for Norwold…

The King wins, Norwold loses 20%, Thyatis 40% and moderate vs seriously fatigued as well. Both forces retreated from the field and neither holds it.

Alzar has 400 vs 1500, so +45 to Thyatis. Alzar gets +35 for magic items (banner and Rod of Victory) and +30 for defending. Thyatis has 130 and Alzar has 194. So Alzar adds 64 to his number. He rolls 51. He foes roll…24. Alzar wins by 92. Results. 0% loses for Alzar and not fatigued and hold the field. The enemy lost 30% and is routed and flees. The force is gone.

Alzar and Thyatis both had flanks that won, and held their ground, now they have to fight,


Alzar has no fatigue, there is no defender bonus this time. Alzar has 164 BR. His foe has lost 30% of 1500 troops, or 450 troops, and drops their ratio down to +30 bonus. They are moderately fatigued and get -10. Result is 105. Alzar gets +59. Alzar rolls 49, and his foe rolls. 54. Result is +55 for Alzar…

Alzar’s force loses 20%, the foe 50%, and Alzar holds the field, is moderately fatigued, and they lost 50% and are seriously fatigued.

Results:

They lost 1500 army to Alzar’s force, then are down to 525 in the army that broke Sandralane. Meanwhile they are down to 4200 in the other army, so post battle, Thyatis loses and has to retreat, and their force dropped from 10k to 4,725

Meanwhile Alzar is down to 320
Sandralane down to 200
King Ericall down to 3200
