End of Battle Events
End of Battle Events: At the end of any phase in which either the attacker has losses
exceeding their retreat threshold or the PC is conquered, the battle changes to the End of
Battle Events, where various events such as leaders perishing, emerging, or gaining rank,
and brigades being eliminated or perhaps gaining experience are revealed.
The Tactics
The Tactics:
Assault
Assault: This is the standard tactic for attacking PC’s. It does not unduly risk either the
leaders or the brigades in the attack.
Retreat percentage: 25% - 40%%.
Requirements: Morale of 80 or greater.
Storm
Storm: A more aggressive tactic for conquering PC’s. The attacker risks higher
casualties in order to have greater assurance of achieving the objective.
Retreat percentage: 45-60%
Requirements: Legion must have either a General or higher ranking leader OR legion
morale of 105 or more (otherwise becomes Assault).
No Quarter
No Quarter: The attackers will murder any suspicious or suspected enemy characters
once they conquer the PC. If they conquer, the chance of characters escaping is half of
what it normally would be. The defenders fight hard to prevent this, and the citizens of
the region resent the attacking kingdom for the action.
Retreat percentage: 40% - 55%.
Requirements:
Commander or higher ranking leader;
Legion must be of Experienced or higher experience.
Outcomes:
PC defensive value is increased 20-30% (die roll) due to the knowledge by the
defenders of the mercilessness of the attackers should they triumph.
PC not breeched until about 20% more damage is taken than is normally required
for a breach.
If the PC falls (legion wins), all characters other than agents in the PC not of the
attacking legion’s kingdom face a 75% chance of execution, ie, their chance of
relocating to the capital is half of what it is with other tactics. Agents also have
only half the chance of relocating underground they normally have (dependent
upon their Level) and so an increased chance of being caught and executed. The
King, if in the PC, faces the same odds as other nobles.
If the PC falls, the census reduction from the battle is 300% of normal.
