That's your problem, you're waiting for the army to be ready. Rule #1 of Armies: they're never ready. If you wait for them, then they'll become lazy and wait even more for you.



Um what?   It wasn't a blanket order:  go to Zhongyuan.  We went from region to region.  Trying 2 turn moves trying this trying that.   The point is that my army only has 3 or 4 active nobles.  The rest can be expected to catch up within a coupe days.  Some only move on weekends which makes for following an army impossible.   So how is that exactly the "easy road"   explain how Morek could have done something more to make this a meaningful conflict?

That's how Battlemaster kind of works, you can't see everyone else's messages, so I'd hope you haven't.

I honestly had no idea that elections were going on, kind of funny timing that you ended up in jail for them.

Is getting captured by the enemy part of the rites of rulership in HD now?

I am starting to think that its the only way my character will die, out of boredom in some prison cell. I can't seem to kill him by fighting entire armies alone so essentially i'm immortal or going to die of old age, anyways its fun. I really enjoy the ups and downs of this character.

I'm surprised that two rulers in a row of HD are on what appears to be a suicide sprint head first into a stone wall.   I'm waiting for some brilliant tactic or some random ally to pop up and save you.  I thought for sure the new realm would be helping you since they are Asylonians, but they signed a peace treaty right away.  I offered them peace to see if they would take it and they did.  So that makes me think they aren't going to help HD.  HD bought some time with what appears to be a fake ceasefire offer and now the war 3v1 war against HD starts up again.  3v1 of their instigating for what its worth.
