[Frost]

Food Fit For A King

In the next few days, the conditions will be perfect for the harvesting of the finest caviar. The best possible servings of the food of kings will be gathered, and dispatched. But which lucky lords and ladies will be dining on this finest fare?

It is known which settlements have put in their orders. Now petitions are to be heard by the merchants behind the gathering as to how many batches should be dispatched to each settlements. No doubt there will then be plenty of military minded monarchs who are willing to sacrifice the lives of peasant soldiers to intercept this precious cargo…

Schedule

ALL caravans have now been dispatched by Boukris, and have reached their targets. The tourney is complete. A round of applause is in order for all who schemed and fought!

Rules

The rules will be as A Flurry of Caravans. Clarifications on these rules:

• Clearly the intention is that people will Blockade the target towns. Obviously, therefore, you may Blockade these towns and Occupy the spaces adjacent to them; equally obviously, you can attack the Blockades and Occupying camps. (To be clear, attacks on these Blockades can come from the Blockaded town, or any other participating player.)
• Diplomatic missions to the Blockades and Occupying camps are also fine.
• Scout and Spy mission to the target cities themselves are fine. Assassins, Thieves and Sab are not fine – Scouts and spies only.
• (So to clarify – as someone asked: Assassins versus camps is fine; Assassins versus cities, not!)
• Sieges, Attacks and Raids on the target towns, or any other towns in the Alliances, are right out, and the targets will doubtless consider them hostile acts.
• Please Cancel Confederations and NAPs between yourselves and any other participating Alliances, for the duration of the challenge.
