We've taken back the Watchmen from the Middenlanders! This is good news indeed
... We've also managed to take it by a 5000-point margin, meaning Middenland is right back where it started conquest-wise.
Udo's Fall is now contested, but don't worry: we still have an access point to Bechafen during this round. We've only lost by a very small margin there, too; 1000 points or so. Should be very easy to get back.
The only real bad news are the new modifiers... +25% for all Middenland battles anywhere, +25% bonus in Bechafen, only one skirmish battle per day... Where's our bonus for retaking BOTH our locations in two rounds
?
Oh well. We're Stirlanders. We don't need bonuses
. All we need is sharp steel in our hand, and strong faith in our lord Sigmar. Besides, we've been getting lots of bonuses lately, it'll be our turn shortly.
As for a new plan: we should put some effort in retaking Udo's Fall. The Talabeclanders might be tempted to attack Bechafen now, or at least keep fighting Middenland for a while... Meaning they can't post everything at Udo's.
Keep playing skirmishes in Bechafen, we really need to be capturing it sometime soon. Talabecland is gaining on us, fast.
Finally, we need to decide about Middenland: attack or defense? I personally feel more for an assault, but we'll need to put extra effort in it with Middenland having the bonus and all... Perhaps defense is a better idea, but we tried that once, and it failed...
So, any suggestions?
