Hi, The raw orders for the Sep I 1098 turn follow. The Random Events will be along in a later die roll email... *Fatimid Caliphate 1) Iftikhar 14sp's [1524] - partial siege Ascalon 2) Emir #2 11sp's [Jaffa] (disrupted) Hold 3) Emir #1 10sp's [Acre] Drop 10 sp's in Acre. Move to Jaffa. I want to use Emr #1 to offload the 6sp's on the 3rd Fleet. Do I have to embark next turn, wait a turn (to satisfy 6.15) then disembark on the following turn? Seems like 6 weeks is a bit long to off load some poor seasick Muslims. 4) Al-Afdal 16 sp's [Acre] + 10sp's from Emir #1 Hold If Ramlah is besieged force will withdraw to Jaffa with treasury If Duqaq's forces wish to withdraw from Ascalon, they may. The Treasury stays in the city *Syrians - Ridwan Bribes Bribe Constantine 10 Bezants with Jarah. Movement 1. Constantine (2108) - 2208 - 2209 - 2210 - 2111 - Hamah 2. Hamah 13 SP's, (Harenc) - 2108 - 2107 - 2007 - River - 1908 - Antioch 3. Jarah 20 SP's, (2213) - River - 2212 - 2112 - River - 2111 Terms: Accept no terms in any sieges. Use any available treasury to offset attrition/siege losses when possible. *Syrians - Duqaq Toghetkin & 16SPs & 5 bezant field treasury @ 1722 move to 1821, 1820, 1819. Toghetkin then moves into Tiberius with 3SPs. After deploying these 3SPs within Tiberius, Toghetkin rejoins the SPs he left outside the gates of Tiberius. Soqman & 10SPs @ 1623 move to 1723, 1822, and end their movement in 1722 outside Nablus. Duqaq & 20SPs will conduct a partial seige of Ramlah after offering the Fatimid 1SP within Ramlah the right to surrender and move to Ascalon ON THE CONDITIONS that the Duqaq Syrian 3SPs within Ascalon are given free passage by the Fatimids to move out of Ascalon to Ramlah taking the Ascalon city treasury of 36 bezants with them. If the 3SPs within Ascalon are not given this free passage, no quarter will be given to the Fatimid 1SP within Ramlah and Duqaq and 5SPs will triumphantly enter Ramlah at the end of this turn (rules permitting). If the Duqaq Syrian 3SPs were permitted to retreat from Ascalon to Ramlah, Duqaq's entire force remains in 1623 outside the gates of Ramlah. If released by the Fatimids, the Emir of Tripoli gratefully moves from Acre to Tiberius via 1619, 1720, 1819. All other Duqaq forces defend in place. *Mosul Turks Balduk - 3sp - MOVE - 0803 / Iconium no attrition loss Thatoul +- Gabriel +- Kogh Vasil - 3 SP - MOVE - 2405 / 2506 / 2505 / edessa no attrition loss Kerbogha - 32SP - MOVE 2112 / 2111 / Hamah 4 attrition - no loss Hasan - 23SP - MOVE 2107 no attrition loss Garrison at Ravendam lets the German troops pass freely - any other forces will be stopped by the Defend order All other units that do not move DEFEND Treachery to Kerbogha *Northern Franks and Normans Password: wiegie *PRIOR TO THE TURN -alliances are formed/dissolved[PGM3.3] No orders -assignment of Butimedes[22.13] No orders *BRIBERY PHASE No bribes *MOVEMENT PHASE Forces in cities defend Any movement attrition paid for by Clrmbald Order:Move 0503/001 William/1T1 0503/001 Clrmbald/1T1 (captured Yaghi-Siyan/1T2, Ridwan Syrian) --- 2 Hexes:=0504,0604,0705=3MPs APs=3x3=9, 0SP loss Order: Move 1815/001 Ivo/1T1 Hexes:=1814,1914,1813,1812,Tort=5MPs APs=5x1=5, 0SP loss Order:Move Tort/001 Hugh(Pol)/1T1 Hexes:=1812,1813,1914,1814=4MPs APs=4x1=4, 0SP loss *SIEGE PHASE No orders *Sicilian Normans Yet again, some more bribes. 5 bz each to Constantine, Gabriel and Thatoul, any that succeed move to Harenc.
