399 A.D: A Time of Dying Empires [OOC, Open, once again.]

You still assume you can breach the middle of the lines, when I clearly posted that there was a very tight line of squares of troops with shields and armor.

We obviously did. It was because of the concentrated burst of power on a weak spot in the line. When a roman soldier falls, his spot is open and the square must compress. We simply pushed in before you could compress to compensate for the fallen Roman.

When you mean killing settlers, are you referring to the battle scene? Because I meant to make it clear that they were avoiding the battle and were moving into other coastal areas. It'd be unlikely for soldiers to suddenly come up and attack them.

I meant soldiers breaking off and running after the settlers sneaking away from the battle.

Settlers aren't remotely near the Anglo-Saxon fleet.

You did not specify where they were. Plus I did mention in my first post in response to you that there were several Roman forts around the Thames, so one of them might block their path.

Grr, should have reserved somewhere before the thread closed D:

Yet you do not allow me to make a post countering your movement concentrating power on that center spot?

That is because of the amount of men pressing against the warrior in front of him. And because of the massive amount of men attacking you, that is a lot of power. Enough to break your center line.

actually he's the one to decide if his center is broken not you.

If you don't give him[USSR] the chance to respond, it's god modding.

I stated that they moved around the area. So basically the southeastern point up the the NPC territory in the north.

Yes, but you should at least post that you are doing it in a previous post so I can post my troops counter to it. You cannot just say "We attack your center with full force and break through" You are supposed to post "We attack your center" And I post "We send troops to reinforce the center though the enemy still breaks through" It is godmodding to assume you can do so.

Oh. Your post was a little vague on that, I will edit my post accordingly. Apologizes for the misinterpretation of your post.

I went for a more balanced leader but in any case most of the barbarian leaders have at least 6 military so my point still stands.

Yaa my military leader has 4, 6 is not much of a difference. combine that with my numbers, most barbarian leaders pathetic administration abilities(which means they cant form large armies), the fact that no sane man would ever send his entire army to come go and invade anyone especaully one so distant as me(further giving my troops a numerical advantage), I think i can hold My own against most barbarian hordes.

Here's the thing nobody want's Iceland at least if you think about it since its more or less worthless during this time period, if you think about it if your so isolated that means you have a army of 10,000 sitting around doing nothing guarding against a threat that they don't even know exist. I don't like people who number spam not saying you do that but its one of the main reasons why I decided not to have a administration skill of lets say 10.

Edit: It also seems boring to be so isolated from everyone else I guess it has its pro's and con's but its not a spot I would pick if I had the choice. I would rather be somewhat around where everything is taking place so I can take part and have fun rping.

Sorry about that. And it's fine.

OK.

Still you claim my troops are fearful, and you are saying your navy is using better tactics and are beating my navy when you do not even mention what tactics they are using.

I'll post later tonight. I need to work on Homework.

I dont have 10,000 men sitting around doing nothing, since my army is not a professional standing army it is instead composed of as needed call up troops. Only in war or something similar(rebellion, revolt, etc) do i call my forces. all men are basically required to learn how to use the sling(primary weapon of my forces) and be proficient with it.

You are right though, my isolation and lack of much use makes me an unsatisfactory subject to conquer. Only in the modern era has iceland become of any use really(with its vast geothermal potential) though its vast fishing reserves and the timber(it used to before the Norse depleted it be filled with forestland) have its uses. I like the ability to kinda sit back and do all my micromanagement stuff with only occasional outside interference. I am not much of a warrior so yaa, sorry.

No need to be sorry guess everyone has different ways of rping but sounds like you should be playing Sim City or a game like that instead of rping in a thread about war? Either way doesn't matter to me as long as the rp is fun and interesting.

I Thought this RP was more about the relationships between states and the overall story of the collapse of the Romans.

We see fear in their eyes. But its just a figure of speech to boost morale. And i will explain my tactics.

I was mostly joking with you but I would say there's a big emphasis on war and most relationships between states during this time was war or raiding each other, and I would also say a big part of the collapse of Romans at-least the Western Roman part was because of war. To sum it up war plays a big part in this role play and usually in most nation type role plays.

good points, you are a smart man

I just want to point out that Ubcivs who are migrating get three times there original army size, so the Roman Legions in Britania are fighting two Uncivs with three times the orginal army size, so that should be able to defeat the Romans there.
