07 Mar 19 UTC | I'm surprised you went for the draw there hohen. GG. |
07 Mar 19 UTC | Great! Glad to draw |
07 Mar 19 UTC | Me too. This was a long game and I really had no clue how it worked at the beginning. Knights being able to retreat past enemy forces to occupy power centers is ridiculous. |
07 Mar 19 UTC | A difficult variant I think with the split up initial power areas, hard to read map wothbthe squiggly lines and lots of connectivity because of the knights |
07 Mar 19 UTC | Tactically I started well but was completely trapped behind ecclesiastic lands with nothing to do but attack knowingnit was suicide. Tried to find a way to make peace hoping he was worried about the solo and would leave me alone. But was impossible. Good game everyone (surprised no push for the solo also) |
07 Mar 19 UTC | this variant definitely keeps you on your toes, especially with the knight moves |
07 Mar 19 UTC | I had a lot of missed opportunities, for example I thought I would have won after each of the last two years, and it took a lot longer to defeat Wettin than I thought. But now it would have gone down for me, after I finally lost the south (won 3, lost 7 SCs in spring move). It would have taken a longer time to recover, if possible at all. The knight moves are definately a bit annoying, I hardly could move away from any of my SCs, even the ones in the very north. |
07 Mar 19 UTC | You totally outplayed me though. This game reminded why I haven't played this variant in a long time haha |
07 Mar 19 UTC | McDrops - I was starting to really enjoy our battle in the south! |
08 Mar 19 UTC | The fact that you are almost punished for dislodging knights is bad design. |
08 Mar 19 UTC | It is, but the rules are pretty set out from the start |
