Yes, I find it can be easy to forget what is going on in these email paced games. I'm a bit weary with Hannibal. We've been playing for several years now. What else? |

I have to pay more attention to the game turn! Actually the game was pretty much over when you kicked Mago's butt (twice!) in Numidia! Rematch or something different? |

I don't think you can continue your retreat. The rules specify that you must retreat to the closest space that is both friendly controlled and free of enemy CUs. From rule 15.1: The loser of the battle must retreat to a space that is both friendly controlled (contains a friendly PC) and clear of enemy CUs, or to a space that contains more friendly CUs than the retreating force. *** If you have more than one space that you may retreat your force to, you must pick the closest one (if two or more are equidistant, the retreating player may choose). *** |
381 | 11/16/2023 5:58:00 PM | 206-204 BC | Carthage | Message |
On second thought, after looking at rules again, I think I can retreat to Thubursicu, take along the 1 CU it encounters there and retreat 2 more spaces to Carthage, ending there with a CU and an elephant. |
