I tend to agree. This is the way the game is supposed to work, but someone always gets shafted this way, and it is difficult to defend against. It does tend to shorten the campaign though.awesum4 wrote:It is the system. Personally I think the option to borrow so much money distorts the campaign.

But we have used the rules as they currently stand.
Honestly, it’s the ability to bribe armies so easily ( regardless of the funding) that seems too power full. Also armies that are defeated are available next turn to attack over and over.( No offense to lascars tenacity ). I imagine since results happen at the toll of a die in a board game, it’s tolerable as the campaign progresses. I think I’m in a position of fighting endless battles where winning keeps a status quo, losing means eradication.w_michael wrote:I tend to agree.

The chickens will come home to roost and I imagine quite a few borrowers will go up against the wall...we need to remember it's short term gain but in the scheme of things it's not the best policy! People are banking on retaining their gains!...very unlikely in the long run and... expansion of fleets and armies and ensuring the fleets are at sea with transported armies in the plague month is always the best policyawesum4 wrote:It is the system.

In term of turns, I would expect up to 10 more.w_michael wrote:How goes the battles of Milan and Cremona? How close to a finish are you?
