England takes VP and Treasure

@Cuthbert Which Spanish treasure do you wish to protect?

The one furthest to the right, I guess.

England gets the right-most treasure, Drake sails into the Pacific for 1 CP, rolls a 9 on his navigation roll, resulting in 13 which is “No Effect”.

Activation is extended with a 2 CP treasure to add 2 influence to Portugal.

On to France @Juan_Raigada

@Panzeh you got the rightmost one, or the middle one? I was protecting the rightmost one.

The middle one. The right of the two remaining ones.

Okay 👍🏻 just checking.

Franc passes.

I play Philosopher’s stone for 2CP.

1CP is spent moving Coligny to 's-Hertogenbosch. Assuming @Cuthbert does not intercept, I will use the second CP to move to Antwerp and lay siege. I uploaded the file assuming no intercept, so if Cuthbert does not want to intercept, @CraigM can go.

No interception, @CraigM is free to go.

Ready to roll the 6 v 5 or anything else happening before Assault takes place?
@CraigM

Let it be decided on the field.

Also, quick question on the assault. Are you able to assault with both armies? I genuinely don’t know how it works, as both leaders are 8 units leadership, can both participate?

That’s a good point let me make sure here…
Ok it looks like the rules are the same as for movement. I activate a single “formation.” A formation is:
This is from page 7

Formations
A formation is a group of land units in a single space that functions
as a combined entity for the purposes of movement, field battle, intercept, and assault. One or more army leaders may also be included
in the formation. The maximum number of land units in a formation is dependent on the Command Rating of any leaders present:
Leaders Present Maximum Formation Size
none 4
1 Command Rating of leader
2 or more Sum of highest two command ratings
Army leaders are never counted when determining the size of a
formation. Formations may not include units from two different
major powers. They may include units of a major power and a
minor power which is actively allied to that major power.

So it’s not two armies but rather one formation that moves, battles, assaults’ etc.
That formatting did not copy over well.

I assault Antwerp with Coligny. I have 4 dice (5/2 rounds up to 3 dice for troops, and 1 for Coligny) versus 3 for Spain (2 regulars and the defender die).

No combat cards from me. @Cuthbert, any combat cards?
