Subject: RE: [mepbmlist] Question regarding Army attack on popcenterCould you clarify this for me? If I attack or threaten a pop center with an
army, say twice the defensive strength of the pop center do I still run the
risk of loosing the commander?Chris
RD: No.A commander can never be killed or injured by threatening no matter how powerful the pop.
If an army successfully attacks a pop, the characters in the army never suffer death or injury (unlike in open battle against another army, where characters in an army can get injured even if they are on the winning side).
However if your army attacks a pop which 2x the strength of your army, the army commander will probably die, and I -think- (altho I'm not certain on this point as it was so long ago) any other characters in the army will die also.
Hope that helps,
Richard.

Subject: Re: [mepbmlist] Question regarding Army attack on popcenterYou can send your army against a pop center to
purposely siege it. Even if you are not capable of
taking it. In some situations you may even want to
sacrifice your character and army to cause the siege.
Hoping in-turn to bankrupt your opponent.An army strength that is above 50% of the pop center
strength will give you a 'chance' of survival. You
suffer loses and "bounce" off the pop center walls.
Below 50% you will most likely not survive.As far as characters traveling with the army, I don't
know an answer to that. I would guess you probably
would not survive as per the scenario above.JCC
RD: I seem to recall that the last time I (unintentionally!) suicided an
army against the walls of a pop, all characters "with" the army died. But
it was a long time ago (I've been more careful since!) so I won't swear to
it.Richard.
