e.g. Matt and Dean play a 2000 points game. at the end Matt has 610 victory points and Dean has 970. the difference is 360 in Deans favor. 360 is 18% of the 2000 point game limit, which means Dean has scored a Solid victory and Matt Has a Loss. bad luck Matt Sad

WINTER ROUND SEQUENCE
1. Winter Events. Roll on the Winter Events chart to determine any unexpected events within your empire.
2. Taxation. Players may raise revenue by taxing the tiles in their empire.
3. Winter Magic. Winter spells may be cast.


WINTER EVENTS - 2D6 Result
2. Dragonrage. From the heart of the mountains at the centre of the world, great dragons come raging forth to raze the land and strike terror to all who lie in their path (see the rules for Dragonrage below).
3. Famine. Widespread famine makes it impossible for your empire to raise taxes effectively this year.  Halve the taxation you collect this winter.
4. Rebellion. An underling rebels against your rule. Randomly select a castle or city in your empire other than your capital — it joins the nearest opposing empire (decide randomly if two or more empires are equally close to the tile).
5. Peasant Revolt. Peasants refuse to pay your entirely reasonable taxes. Ungrateful scum — have you not protected them from the authoritarian rule of your enemies!?!! You generate no tax from farmland tiles or cities this winter.
6. Raids. Roll a D6 for each tile lying adjacent to an enemy held tile. On a roll of 1-3, you receive no taxes from the tile this winter.
7. Nothing. see bold text
8. Increased Revenue. Your merchants and traders have been very successful this year. The tax revenue from all of this activity adds 50 gold pieces to the royal coffers for every city in your empire.
9. Plentiful Harvest. The fine weather and hard work of your farmers has resulted in a bountiful harvest. Receive 10 gold pieces for every tile in your empire.
10. Special Tribute. Your minions selflessly levy an additional tax to pay for statues of you to be erected in every city in the empire, in gratitude for your just and enlightened rule. Collect an additional 2D6 x 10 gold pieces. What you do with this windfall is up to you!
11. Arcane might. Immediately cast an equinox spell for no cost.
12. Dragonrage. From the heart of the mountains at the centre of the world, great dragons come raging forth to raze the land and strike terror to all who lie in their path (see the rules for Dragonrage below).

The Dragonrage
Dragonrage can be triggered once each winter by a roll of 2 or 12 on the Winter Events table. Once it has been triggered, any further rolls of 2 or 12 that winter count as 3 or 11 respectively.
Randomly select a mountain tile when the Dragonrage is triggered. 2D6 Dragons will pour forth from this tile. Use anything you like to represent the dragons — small coins work well. Randomly select a tile adjacent to the mountain and place one dragon in it. Then randomly select a new tile adjacent to the one where the dragon was just placed, and put a dragon in it to, and so on, leaving one dragon per tile, until all of the dragons have been placed. Note that it is possible for a tile to receive two or more dragons.
No taxes may be raised on a tile with a dragon. In addition, if the tile has a marker such as a city, castle, or mine, then 1D6 is rolled for each dragon on the tile, and the marker is destroyed on a roll of 4+.

WINTER TAXATION
The money that they raise is added to the player's treasury and can be used along with the revenue raised during the campaign season to pay for additional troops. Each tile in a player's empire has a taxation value, as shown below. Simply roll the appropriate number of six-sided dice, multiply the score by 10 (or 5 in the case of a marsh, tundra, or desert), and add the resulting revenue to your treasury.


TAX TABLE
Tile Type        Taxation Value
Mountain        Zero
Marsh 1D6 x 5 Gold Pieces
Desert 1D6 x 5 Gold Pieces
Plains 1D6 x 10 Gold Pieces
Forest 1D6 x 10 Gold Pieces
Farmland         2D6 x 10 Gold Pieces
River         2D6 x 10 Gold Pieces
City         +1D6 x 10 Gold Pieces

Empire upkeep - Each player must pay 5 gold per tile in their empire. In addition to this they must pay 5 gold for each Castle, City or Mine they own.


Isolated Tiles
During the course of the campaign, empires expand outward. Newly conquered territory will usually be linked to the existing friendly tiles. However, as the campaign progresses, this link may be broken as interlinking tiles fall to the enemy. If a tile can no longer draw a route along friendly tiles to a friendly city, it is said to be isolated. Isolated tiles are part of the empire in all respects except that they provide no revenue during spring, summer, autumn and no tax during winter.

Blighted Crops & Famine
Some events and spells reduce the amount of tax a tile or empire can raise. If several of these things affect a tile, then their effects are cumulative. For example, an empire hit by blighted crops and famine would have its taxes halved, and then halved again.
When halving any taxes, round any fractions up.

WINTER MAGIC
Determine which spell is available to each player by rolling on the winter spell table. players can then choose to cast that spell and declare any target. casting a spell costs 100 gold. Once all player have done so, GM rolls all 2D6 for each spell. If the result is equal to or greater than the number of tiles from one of that player’s city to the target, then the spell takes full effect; otherwise it fails and has no effect. the GM then resolves any spell effects.

Winter Spells
2. Failure. The spell fails to work.
3-4. Abundance. This spell has no target tile. every tile in the players empire blossoms with life throughout the year. The player doubles the taxation generated this winter (modifiers for famine or blighted crops, etc. still apply). A player can only cast this spell once per winter turn, reroll duplicate of this result.
5-6. Blight Crops. This spell is cast on a tile in an enemy empire but affects the empire as a whole. Crops shrivel and fail, reducing the yield of the entire harvest. Taxes are halved for the empire this winter. A player can only cast this spell once per winter turn, reroll duplicate of this result.
7. Quake. The city or castle in the target tile are devastated by an earthquake leaving the settlement devastated. Remove the city or castle from the target tile on a roll of 2+.
8. Deluge. This spell must be directed against a river tile, causing the river to swell, forming a tidal wave of destruction. Any marker in the tile is destroyed on a roll of 3+. Any marker lying downstream(away from mountains) of the tile is destroyed on a roll of 5+.
9. Trail of Howling Doom. This spell unleashes a trail of magical wind and storms beginning in the target tile. Any marker in the tile is destroyed on a roll of 4+. The spell then moves one tile in a randomly determined direction and affects it in the same way. The spell will keep on moving randomly until a 1 is rolled on the dice when rolling to see if a marker is destroyed.
10. Transform Gold. This spell must be cast upon an opponent's city or mine. Up to D6 x 100 gold pieces in the opponent's treasury are transmuted from gold into worthless lead!
11-12. Tornado of Peril. This spell creates a whirling tornado of magical energy that devastates the tile, destroying any marker in the target tile and remove any players flag..
