[eia] Battle of Damietta

["J.J. Young" <jjy@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Oops.  I just realized that since the chit choices were assault vs. defend, we don't use the die roll modifiers for leaders' tactical ratings.  So Turkey would get a +1 for cavalry superiority.

 

Round 1:

Turkey rolls 5+1 = 6 on 3-1, which is 10% of 34 = 3 factors, and -1.5 morale on Spain.  Spain rolls 4 on 4-1, which is 10% of 20 = 2 factors, and -1.0 morale done to Turkey.

 

Round 2:

Turkey rolls 3+1 = 4 on 3-1, which is 10% of 32 = 3 factors, and -0.8 morale on Spain.  Spain rolls 5 on 4-2, which is 15% of 17 = 3 factors, one of which must be cavalry, because the -1.9 morale loss breaks the Turks.

 

Pursuit:

Spain rolls on pursuit class 3 (2 rounds, -2.3 morale loss), rolling a 3.  This inflicts 15% of 4 cavalry factors = 1 cavalry loss.

 

Total losses:

Spain loses 6 I (3 of which must be Swedish).

Turkey loses 4 I (Egyptian) and 2 C (Turkish, either feudal or imperial).

 

Of course, these would be the casualties that minimize cavalry loss; Joel or Danny might do otherwise.

 

The Turkish army retreats to Cairo.

 

I hope all this is correct and helpful.
