Or I can take advantage of the major religion in China and just have them all cremated or dumped into the earth and buried outright.

Technically still waiting for Damocles.  In practice, am starting anyway.

Results are gamed out, so I'm now writing up the report.  Will hope to have it out Monday night.

Hmm well that went all sorts of wrong.

Apparently there was none of the synchronization I intended and was more like a rough, disorganized charge. I intended 2-1 concentrations or above on every fight and giving up the offensive if pressed to hard. Guess I have some commanders to fire.

Also the Swechwan-Hupei move does NOT require crossing the Yangste river. Such a move is only when going into RR-controlled Hupei and attacking from here, a move which really makes no sense.

Actually with all the misorders carried out, I'm not that surprised.

The Rock Doctor

You're correct about the Szechwan/Yangtze bit.  That's a significant error on my part.  I will have to consider whether to re-evaluate the outcome of that particular attack.

The Rock Doctor

I examined my gaming records and adjusted the terrain modifier to reflect that the Yangtze is not so much of an issue.  However - the terrain is still pretty mountainous, and that favors the Imperials.  Still a Republican defeat, but less expensive.

On battles - they were gamed as synchronized.  However, between terrain modifiers and the strength of the Imperial defenders, most of your attacks worked out to 1:1 or 1.5:1 attacks (other than the one out of Chekiang/Kiangsu - 1:3).  Either set of odds favors the defender in most cases.

Logi

I actually intended them to attack close together in front length, making it a small area of attack rather than three separate spots.

Hmmm... I think there is going to be famine and plague in both China's.

Fear not. The Empire is just across the border. :)

Iberia at the star of the war made a request to setup refugee relief and relocation agency.  Both China's ignored the request.

any chance of a new offer being made in light of the humanitarian scenario now unfolding?
