Division 2

Paulmcneil French beats Bagatrix Danes

63:51

Close,close,close. Flip flopped between us for most of the game before I went behind for the last few turns, decided dramatically on the last turn,when it completely turned around after a long, long grind. Excellent game.

Div 3

Alexmike1 Roman 197-284 beat IMC - Roman 379-424 + Frankish 260-495 allies 53-23

The earlier Romans struggled to hold off the superior Frankish cavalry on their flanks. Thankfully, the earlier legions showed their mettle once contact was made.

Thanks again for the game.

[Morat]

Div 2

Morat Visigothic 419-621 + Byzantine 551-578 allies beat Conteshard Roman 197-284 + Arab 312 BC-299 AD allies: 60-40

Visigoths sought to draw the Roman cavalry into battle, and stay away from the legions for as long as possible. With a little good fortune the cavalry battle swung in the favour of the Visigoths, and their cavalry was able to support the warbands to hold off the Roman foot. In the end this was just enough to see the Visigoths over the line.

Many thanks to Conteshard for a hard fought and close game.

Division 1

random27 (indo-parthian) defeats ericdoman1 (jewish revolt) 62-46

First victory against eric in a tdc , i did not choose indo-parthian for fighting you eric , but the match up between these armies is clearly in indo-parthian favor in my opinion.

Thanks for the game , i will try to play at this level during all the tournament , not sure it will be easy
Impossible , not for french ; always a pleasure to play with you , see you soon on the battlefield

[gfs26]

Division 3

Honestly I don't know how to report this one... A very narrow win or a draw ?

Anyway
gfs26 [Byzantines 988-1041]
won or draw against
Nosferatu [Croatian 850-1102]

the score was 61-60 !!!

An amazing battle, really fun and unpredictable until the very last turn ! Croatian army was lead in a perfect manner by enemy General, aginst better quality Byzantines (but in the end the numerical advantage was quite decisive ... about 12000 Croatian vs about 8000 Byzanines)... at the end of the battle there were no more than 4000 vs 2000...a bloodbath. Great battle ! Thanks to my opponent for the great fight !
PS. the ELO system gives a full victory to Byzantines (+15 ELO var vs -15 ELO var) it seems a bit too much honestly ! This should be a +-1 ELO var. Is FOG2 Ancient ELO system bugged ?

[gfs26]

Division 2

gfs26 [Ottoman Turkish 1430-1500 w Tatar Allies]
defeats
GDod [Breton 1466-1491 + Castilian 1476-1497 allies]

score was : 62-49

The battle could easily go the other way... Lots of incredible stubborn units passing the cohesion test against all odds (to be honest also on the other side, but less frequently)
The battlefield was really very bad, but in the end, better for Ottomans lighter army. But the attack on unfavourable terrain almost worked anyway for the enemy army.
Fun battle, another bloodbath!
Thanks to my opponent, he deserved the win not less than my Ottomans !

Just to chime in, this was really an amazing battle, thanks gfs26. Also the closest and most chaotic I ever had, in the last several turns, each random roll could have changed the outcome significantly, but the balance kept swinging back and forth and both our troops slugged it out stubbornly until they all collapsed exhausted. I think the 1% difference is enough reason to declare this a victory for gfs26.

Division 2

edb1815 Byzantine 551-578 + Germanic Horse Tribes 260-492 allies defeated Conteshard Roman 197-284 + Arab 312 BC-299 AD allies. 61%-53%

A very close battle that could have gone either way. The Imperial Roman Legions crushed the inferior Byzantine infantry while the cavalry battle swirled all around. The more numerous and bow armed Byzantine cavalry ultimately won the day and even took out a couple of Roman heavy infantry units.

Very well played by Conteshard. Thanks for the game.
