Hi, The raw orders for the May II 1098 turn follow. The Random Events will be along in a later die roll email... *Fatimid Caliphate Movement: 1) Iftikhar 16sp's [Ramlah] 2) Emir #1/Fleet 3 6sp [Caeserea] - Caesarea to Pelusium (1sp remaining in Caeserea) 3) al Afdal 20sp's [Jaffa] - Jaffa - 1523 - 1522 - 1521 - 1620 - 1619 = 5 MP's, 5 AP's 3) Emir #2 15 sp [Cairo] - Cairo - 0329 - 0428 - 0528 - 0627 - 0727 - 0826 = 6MP's, 6 AP's (10 sp remaining in Cairo) al Afdal takes 20 bezants from Jaffa's treasury for his field treasury. Emir #1 takes 10 bezants from the Caeserea treasury for his field treasury. All sp's set to defend Full Siege for Acre Alas, my brother Duqaq has not responded to my inquires. It is plain that he is held captive in his own fortress by Godless men. I will not be taken, unsuspecting as the lamb at the slaughter (Consider Duqaq's forces hostile). *Syrians - Ridwan No bribes, all forces defend. Don't accept any terms to any sieges. *Syrians - Duqaq Duqaq, Soq, Ram, 25 sp to 1922 (11ap - 1sp). Will surrender Damascus to Kerb provided Togh is allowed to leave the city unhindered. If this is the case, Togh move with 23 sp to 1921 (12ap - 1sp). If these terms are unacceptable to Kerb, Togh will remain in the city and defend. All others defend. *Mosul Turks HASAN - 22SP +- 10Bz - MOVE - 2306 / 2405 / 2505 - intent to attack German army.

If allowed, a 30 Bezant bribe is paid to the main leader of each of the Northern Franks, Southern Franks and Germans. A total of 90 bezants. All money from the Famagusta city treasury. If I am not allowed to do that because I don't have a leader in Famagusta then no bribes are paid. I figure I had better spread the wealth before someone steals it. If it is not too late, Bohemond takes the Latakia city treasury with him when he goes from Latakia to tripoli. If it is too late, oh well. *Germans 2505/006 Henry/1T1 2505/002 Peter/1T1 Beseige Part/001 Eustace/3S2 Part/002 Conon/1T1 move: 1804,1904,2004, Part/001 Warner/1T1 Hold Lamp/001 Oshin/0T1 (Armenian) Lamp/001 Constantine/0T1 Hold Tars/001 Baldwin(Hainault)/2T3 Hold 1307/001 Otto/(1)T1B move: 1108,1007,1006,1005 *Southern Franks Bribery: None Money: Transfer all of Field Treasury #2 to #1 ( 19 bezants ) Transfer 30 bezants from Hamah to Field Treasury #1 new total = 50 -------------------- Movement with intent to siege 2111/009 Raymond(Toulse)/4P3 (2 Treachery) 2111/006 Gaston/1T1 2111/007 Gerard/1T1 2111/005 Isoard/1T1 2111/001 Adhemar/5S4B --- 028 starting 2111, hexes entered 2112 (crossing the river) ,2212 , 2213(crossing the river again) - ready to siege Homs next turn. 6 attrition points, spend 5 bezants to avoid 1 SP loss ------------------ Movement 2111/003 Rambald/2T2 starting in 2111, enter hexes 2112, 2212 ------------------- Defend Hama/006 Frncs-Lmbt/1T2 ------------------- Defend Beir/003 Raymond(Forez)/1T1 Beir/003 William/(1)T1B --- 6 -------------------- Patrol Beir/002 1Fleet (Flemish) Beir/002 1Fleet (Pisa) -------------------- I have a query.
