Keep in mind they are going to attack you  now, this turn.

P12 is closer to T13 than R14, due to the water. Water and mountain are a factor in picking the "nearest" county square.

[Criptfeind]

I see, okay, never mind lol. I'm going to rework my turn with that in mind.

I take back my "It's fine" Curse you Egan_BW

Double post because cuz reasons. I noticed 2 things, including what might have been a bug last turn.

First: I thought "Huh, a lair is weird in EE, is that possible?" And looked back at terrain generation rules, as far as I can see, lairs shouldn't be possible to spawn in EE?

Second: When looking back at the rules I also noticed that lairs are suppose to spawn with 2 monster groups, which means my single giant lair from last turn shouldn't be possible, nor should a single wisp lair?

Yes that's quite right! Not so much a bug, as me forgetting to toggle a setting before generating the tile. I'll let the challenge stand for now, as it benefits Egan, but yes good spotting. There shouldn't be lairs or sites to the east. I'll change it into a swamp with the same gold reward.

Yes that is a bug! Lairs were only spawning one group. Thanks for noticing that. Thirty second fix to the engine. Glad that one got nipped in the bud early on.

What happens if I manage to successfully siege the p11 fort in a single turn and then it's selected as the attack target for the T13 fort? (As far as I can tell, P11-12-13 and Q13 are all equidistant from the T13 fort which is really annoying )

[notquitethere]

It that happened, they'd attack you but you'd have the benefit of the fort's defence. If you didn't manage to take the fort but stayed beseiging, then they wouldn't attack the seige (as it wouldn't be your tile yet).

[Criptfeind]

Do skeletons count for army size when calculating retreat thresholds? And do dead skeletons count as casualties when calculating retreat thresholds?

Do skeletons count for army size when calculating retreat thresholds? And do dead skeletons count as casualties when calculating retreat thresholds?

Yes to both. They act the same as people except for needing accompaniment and having some special interactions around artefacts.

buy 3 armies.

Scout N11-N10-O10.

Minor bug:

Scout O12-O11-O10: You scout through the first land, a newly taken Fecund Copse, still with five armies securing it. You scout through the second land, discovering a hill. On the craggy slopes the scout finds five wood. Lying on the stockpile of wood, they find a bog cat!
Your scout withdraws to safety.

it says there are 5 armies securing the Fecund Copse, but in actuality it is 3 (enemy turn correctly uses that number)
