I would have thought that my rule didn't go into effect until after it was passed, and as it adds an IP at the beginning of each player's turn, and the only turn begun since its instatement was Grujah's. But I could just as easily be misinterpreting things.

[EFHW]

That is a good point.  ok, cancel upgrade of skill for unit at E13

[mail-mi]

Grujah, I should be in square G9 not G8

[Voltaire]

Vote: Abstain on rule 365

[Jack Rudd]

Rule passes 4-0

I declare it to be mail-mi's turn

[EFHW]

upgrade skill for soldier at E13 to 1 pay N$25.

[mail-mi]

right okay let's see... i think I'm going to fix up my attacking idea to make soldiers useful...

Draft of Rule 366:
Players may spend 1 IP to attack directly or diagonally adjacent players, hereafter known as defending players. To do so, players post Attack: $$ to %% in bold, where $$ is the place of the active player's unit, and the %% is the place of the defending player's piece. Each player will roll 1d6 using the forum's dice rolling feature in response to the attack. If the defending player wins, nothing happens. If the active player wins, the defending player must post Give N$500 to Y in bold, where Y is the active player, or Give N$X to Y in bold if the defending player has less than N$500, and X is the rest of the defending player's N$.

Changes?

[EFHW]

Two things - I think that is too much money.  And maybe forcing the defeated unit to move one space in the same direction as the attack would be more helpful and interesting.

Proximity between K11 and J10

I agree $500 is a bit steep.

What happens in case of ties? Tie goes to the defender, presumably, as rerolls would be annoying. "Wins" is sort of ambiguous there, maybe "if the attacker's roll was higher" etc. would be better.

I want to plunder food! Plunder: Everything Actually though victory points should probably be off limits for plundering...farmers are for getting more points, soldiers are for map control and resource dominance.

Possibly you could incorporate a bit about the soldiers' skill levels to make that meaningful. For example, you could roll Nd6 to attack and defend, where N is the skill level. Boosting your skill makes your soldiers more effective and bell curvy. And/or skill level has something to do with the quantity or type of loot plundered...you receive N*$100, and also N Swag Tokens

Yes ties go to the defender, I forgot to put that in.

I like the plunder anything idea... ill find a way to work it in.

What about rolling an 1d(6+N) where N is the soldier's level?

Updated everything in my tasks except the points/$ in the OP.

[mail-mi]

Any more thoughts on the rule? otherwise I'll post the final draft tonight

[EFHW]

plunder is good.  I also think winning territory (forcing retreats) would be valuable.

Final Draft of Rule 366:
Players may spend 1 IP to attack directly or diagonally adjacent players, hereafter known as defending players. To do so, players post Plunder $$ to %% in bold, where $$ is the place of the active player's unit, and the %% is the place of the defending player's unit. Each player will roll Nd6 using the forum's dice rolling feature in response to the attack, where N is the number of the unit's soldier level plus 1. The two highest numbers of each player will be the only dice used. If the defending player roll is higher, nothing happens. If the active player's roll is higher, the defending player must post Give N$250 to Y in bold, where Y is the active player, or Give N$X to Y in bold if the defending player has less than N$250, and X is the rest of the defending player's N$. If the roll is a tie, nothing happens. You may only attack if it is your turn.

I added the "you may only attack if it is your turn" to prevent slowing down the game with everybody attacking on everyone's turn.

I will challenge these moves if necessary (sorry mail-mi) because you definitely ended the turn. If we want to impeach Grujah for not updating the map (or preferably just give him a friendly poke) I'd participate in that.
