@fox: She accepts the idea and becomes Enma Ai, yo.

[up]So she ends up becoming a quasi-Kyubey?

Meanwhile I'm listening to the old Transformers theme. Dear god, it's so eighties.

In a bit of a dilemma.

The Champions of Olympus, a Macedonian army.

Are attacking my place at Navissos.

The garrison in auto-resolve will not win at all, and I might be able to win if I'm smart in an actual battle.

But- my army is probably a turn away from being able to chase them down.

So the question is- do I let them take Navissos, and just kill them. Or do I try to hold them off at Navissos and hope I somehow win?

If you kill them after they take Navissos, won't you just get it back?

At least she'd spell out the fine print. And punishment and torture is sort of her specialty.

Heck, maybe if she was convinced to help Homura and Sayaka once Homura returns to Mitakihara, collecting those souls could help advance the big plan.

I guess I'd go for that, then, if it's the safer option. (It is, right?)

[up]Ooh.

It's safer ego-wise, yeah.

I mean.

If I go to a manual battle, it'll suck if I loose.

While if I just let the auto-resolve do it's thing, it's almost just accepting that I can't win at that battle.

I came up with another idea on how Archer could have been unbused. Kinda stupid, but whatever.

[up]How are the odds of winning the manual battle?

Depends on how well I do.

The Garrison has one unit of Warriors, and three skirmishers.

And I'm facing 1 unit of Royal Peltasts, 1 unit of Militia Hopilites, 1 unit of Sarissa cavalry, then 1 slinger and 1 javelin unit.

So I could turn it around if I'm smart and the AI messes up.

@Olive: I don't know the game. But if it's a game then I'd personally prefer to win it in the most satisfying way. Again, just my opinion.

@Mega: It would've been the same basic thing - Homura has to bail him out via Command Spell. But instead of fighting Arcueid he would've been fighting a threat from the Transformers continuity, most likely Unicron.

The idea just popped into my head because it could have been a way to rekindle my Optimus fuse, as well as give a dynamic of mutual respect between Archer and Optimus.

Hrmm.

I'll go with a manual battle then.

See whether I can win it.

Whelp.

My fears about their cavalry came to fruition.

Decisive Defeat.

Because Skirmishers are panzy-ass bitches that can't take a cavalry charge head-on.

And my Warriors could not hold out on their own.

Yeah.

I was going to loose anyway.

Ah Well.

My army was able to swoop in and take Navissos back literally the turn after.

Yeah.

Macedon is dead.

As are so many other people.

Because I've got a terrible food shortage.

And I sadly cannot punch hunger in the face.

Oi. Was that because of the sacking of Navissos?

Also, I think FG Archer is the only Servant in the multiverse whose Luck is currently E-.

No.

It might be because until recently the only notable source of food was a fishing port.

And two of my friends, the Getae and Tylis- are having a sea war.

So apparently Urobuchi's got a joke Reality Marble called Dead End Catharsis, where every character he writes loses one rank of Luck. Archer's already got E rank Luck, which should be the lowest, and the fact that he's contracted to an Urobuchi character...
