[mberisso]

Division D

mberisso (Swedish 1450-1500 AD) defeats gfs26 (English (Continental) 1475 AD) 63-50

A charge of the Swedish cavalry from the wood changed the course of the battle when defeat was almost sure.

A balanced and funny game! Grazie della partita!

[gfs26]

Division D

gfs26 (Swedish 1450-1500 AD) defeats mberisso (English (Continental) 1475 AD) 51-26

A fierce battle that could have gone the other way. As a result of the mirrored fight, the underdog (Swedish army) won both battles... I expected exactly the opposite outcome.

Thanks for the great fight !

[tyronec]

Div A
tyronec (Georgian) defeats rafydedel (Ghaznavid) 40-13.
Horse archers rule OK, the mirror looks to be going the same way.

[nonovitch]

Div B
Nonovitch (Swiss) defeats Xlegionne(Burgundy) 41-10.

[nyczar]

Division B

nyczar (Aragonese) defeats Triarii (English) 40-8

A RNG chain rout led to the result.

[rafydedel]

Div A

Rafydedel Georgian defeats Tyronec Ghaznavid 50-24

I was not expecting this, but the Georgian army fares quite well against the Ghaznavid.
Thanks to Tyronec for this game

[Chris Townsend]

Division F

The Scots maintained their independence, using favourable rough and woods terrain to dominate the flanks, while holding up the English victory in the open centre long enough to achieve overall victory.

Chris Townsend's Scots 62 v. KossTia's English 48.

P.S. Comparing Medieval and Ancient Scots for nominally the same period, the key difference is probably the availability of English Knights, instead of "mere" English Armoured Cavalry.

I can't get any response from dragmio, if anyone is playing him would you ask him to read his PMs and respond.
If we don't hear from him his games will be defaulted at the end of the competition, or if he is already in default in your game you could claim now.

Division F Results

The terrain here was flat with some peripheral woods and a small swamp on one flank. However, the centre was dominated by wide areas of rough ground, which is favourable ground for the Welsh. Their medium spearmen can even form square in the rough, and still be steady!

So the key was how well the Welsh could channel the battle into rough terrain, or, conversely, how much the Anglo-Irish (and, especially, their knights) could catch the Welsh in the open.

Chris Townsend's Anglo-Irish choose to put all their cavalry in the one area of open terrain in the centre, and adopted the simple plan of just charging forward through the shower of arrows. It worked:

- Chris Townsend's Anglo-irish 46 vs. Brenmusik 10.

In the mirror, the Anglo-Irish cavalry was not as concentrated, while the Welsh successfully (until the Anglo-Irish armour arrived) concentrated their cavalry on the flank of the swamp. In the centre, the Welsh simply refused to emerge from the woods until the armoured threat moved away. A tough battle ensued all over the map, with just enough of it occurring in rough terrain to give:

- Chris Townsend's Welsh 60 v. Brenmusik's Anglo-Irish 41

Good games!
Chris Townsend
