ACGTO Napoleonic Balladeer (Carolingians) v Wittman (Coalition)

:-D

@wittmann:

I hope it was ok to move through the Convoy Box, like that. Please say if you do not like post Combat Edits.

Glad to be playing Napoleon again. Enjoy your weekend.

Given that there are no other possible attacks for that unit it’s ok, but it’s off course beter to do stuff like that in you CM.

Have a good weekend!

That could’ve gone better… I chose to give you max def btw, if you want to keep cavalry instead of lvl 2 inf units we can reroll from there if you want.

@wittmann:

Was going to say: unlucky. You did have to try that attack, however. I would have too. Winning it, would have put me in a sticky situation. I can breath a bit better now. You are the best opponent I have faced in this. My Prussian T1 is always more aggressive, but after you captured Vienna on F5 in the Team , I was not taking any chances. I am playing more defensively than normal.
Will do my turn within the hour.

Yea even losing that attack is much better than not trying it at all. It;s not that unlucky, it’s just over 40%, but killing 2 more units would’ve been nice ;). But I think I’ve still got a shot, so stay on the defensive! ;-)
By the way, the reason I play ‘so well’ is that I’ve looked over all your games, as you were the one giving all the good advices in the 8p game, so you’ve got yourself to thank for it!

No hurry, my son is awake and won’t go to sleep, so no more turns until after dinner (CET).
