Jonathan, I'm 4-1-1 having lost a while back to PeterGuest in our frst battle. I have just taken a look and it doesn't appear as though Peter posted the result at the time.

PeterGuest's Byzantine's defeat Majandro's Hungarians, 17/46 vs 31/31

I think I got it right this time despite the g&t (hic!). Excellent game - thanks

PeterGuest's Byzantines defeat Voskarp's Timurids, 16/47 vs 32/25

The Timurids were horribly outnumbered and their expensive mounted bowmen had all sorts of problems with the Byzantine lancers. Thanks for the game.

PeterGuest's Carthaginians defeat Peterabb's Thessalians, 28/50 vs 61/59

The Thessalian's skirmishers were caught out in the open by enemy cavalry and the woods gave the Carthaginian's good cover from the Greek spears. Good games - thanks

I'll give it a go if there's space
