... I think Hispania has gone a bit too far in complexity and size. It takes forever to play, and it is much more complicated than Britannia and even that is...
Hello everybody I have a quick question We are 8 friends that are going to spend a weekend playing a mini tourament of britannia. We have 2 copies of the game....
... What you want is impossible. A certain player A will face 4*3=12 opponents in 4 games. There are 7 others. 12 just isn't a multiple of 7... Ronald ...
Peter-Albert, First make sure that the last game is a final type otherwise the last game will be boring (and may induce irrational behaviors). Because you have...

Thank you very much, that was exactly the information I needed. Peter-Albert...
At the beginning of turn 16 the norwegians do not have enough armies to place in the north sea as reinforcements, simply because they haven't lost enough, and...
Luke, if you're all consenting adults you can do what you please. :-) Many would say, "No" on the basis that the reinforcements are not placed in the same...
Hello all, ... While I usually agree with chux's line, I think that in a game the sole purpose of rules is to free the consenting adults sitting around the...
... Exactly. It isn't within the rules (those are clear that the armies are placed at the start of T16), but it may be within your house rules. :) /Anders...
Greets, ... I agree with Jaakko, especially about the bit where he says that he usually agrees with me, but that might just be because I usually agree with...
The point is that arguing about a rule interpretation on reinforcements bw sensible adults in turn 16 is about fulfilling the efforts of the previous 4 hours....
... Don't worry about winning or losing, just make sure you keep your friends so that you can play again! :-) T16 is a bad moment in the general teleology of...
The e-mail account I use here has been filled up with W32.Swen messages and some legitimate messages to this address have been bounced. I hope that whoever I...
... In the WEBC rules, you can't add armies later if you don't have enough available at the start of the turn. This goes for both Normans and Norwegians. ...
... This, as Hispania, requires a notion of average VP, which I find problematical for a bidding game (since VP gain depends strongly on alliances)....
At the end of the game, after sumbission of the Norman moves and battles, while the map stays the same with the closing disposition of the nations, the...
Hi I,m playing a PBEM and i would like to know how you resolve the submissions. I have a doubt: choose the possibility of sumission just before the roman turn...
In a recent 3 player game I scraped home with a win, with player A (the rom/sax axis). It occurred to me during turn 16 that I didn't have a single army of any...
... Not often, but it happens. In webc3semib, Red won even though he had very few armies left, so while this isn't exactly your situation it is close. ...
I am sorry to have disappeared for some time. Call it "designer's disease". Sometimes a game suddenly comes up that preoccupies you, and that's what happened...
... years. The game is quite an undertaking but I really need to get a move on with it. I have an alternative title (suggested by a friend) but this thread has...
Hi Lew, I wonder what you mean by this? I don't see that historical accuracy is scale dependant. Britannia will not produce Celtic artwork or the like, but at...
1)What exactly is it that pict raiders do differently to other raiders? Obviusly they can't start at sea. 2) Can other raiding nations do as the picts do? ( ie...
... The main difference is that for all other nations, raiders can become settlers (by not returning to sea), but once an army has settled in Britain it can...
